I wouldn't think so,  he can win 5-7 per year and coach there until he decides he's had enough.  Been going on for years.  Now if it were baseball or soccer that would be another story.  Just my opinion.  

Exactly right. For whatever reason (which I think is crazy being it's the #1 sport for revenue) Farragut just doesn't put much emphasis on their football program. I have gone to games there between OR and them and we bring more fans to their home games then they do. Most of the time they don't even come remotely close to packing the home side. Courtney has had a few good teams the past few years, but with the talent that Farragut has had throughout the years he should've done better in my opinion. Football just isn't a top priority there for whatever reason.

I remember Maryville scrimmaging Farragut before the season started in 2008. What was funny is the football field looked terrible. Like a cow pasture. This was right before football season. Going back to my vehicle after the scrimmage I walked by the Baseball Field. The Baseball Field looked better than some College and Pro Fields.

Yep. That's a perfect example. Bet the Soccer Field looked spectacular, too.

Farragut beat Maryville Freshmen in 2012. Maryville Freshmen were undefeated going into that game. Farraguts only loss was to Alcoa freshmen. I remember sitting next to a former coworker who had a son on that freshmen team. Son is still on team and will be a senior. Former Co worker told me I was bad luck because that was the only freshmen game I went to that year.

Farragut has really nice facilities all around (football included). I have never gotten the impression that they don't care about football. It's just they haven't been as good lately and less people are going to the games on Friday nights. But they still have pretty good fan support.

Sorry, but I have never come away impressed with their football stadium. Although I'm sure a lot of people aren't impressed with ours right now either.

    • Hmmmmm……doe dee doe doe….i drove the lawnmower down to practice today…….hmmmm…… we got some new faces………. One can run faster than my lawnmower in fifth gear…… a few will be disappointed come November that they jumped ship and went down to that sewage facility……. You can bet the lawnmower on that. 
    • I don't know what's going on in the town of McMinnville, but I've read this and it's disturbing.  I'm a "player" person, and I want what's best for the player. If a player gets cut off the team because she said the "F word" then good grief. I mean, come on guys. I wish there was a way for the player to transfer to a different program and just play ball. There are a lot of athletes that are stuck because they're in crappy situations regarding their team/coach. This is player just happens to be one them.
    • Won't happen. College coaches will back the coach every time and it cost this young lady her senior season. Looks like the player may be right on this one. School let her  go after one season. This stuff happens more than you think. 
    • “No college is going to offer a scholarship to a player that is kicked off of the team.” For language? I’m not seeing that as a dealbreaker. 
    • Why did the coach get rehired after she was let go as an assistant by the former Warren County coach and the current AD?? Is that accurate?? I am very familiar with situations like this. Suprised lawsuits haven't happend before. If the coach unfairly let the player go, I think she has a shot because it cost her a scholarship. No college is going to offer a scholarship to a player that is kicked off of the team. Not going to happen. There are bad hires like this a bunch and kids are treated unfairly by coaches that can't coach a lick and have super long ropes somehow. Amazing how some of these coaches get hired and keep their job.
