Rumor has it that the new coach is already in house. Does this mean they are hiring an assistant?

AD told me he wouldn't be hiring anyone soon, and I don't think it'll be an assistant coach. Someone had mentioned David Marsh, but that wouldn't be a smart hire. He's been out of coaching since 2002 when he was the BOYS coach.

 

We need to look outside Alcoa for this hire. Justin Combs, Stephen Gregg, and especially Justin Underwood are some of the bigger names. Of the three, I'd shoot for Underwood and MAKE him tell us no.

 

Surely there are other qualified candidates who will apply as well.

Why would underwood leave bearden. Same reason Farraguts coach Fultons coach halls coach south Doyle's coach or any coach in knox co. Money talent and facilities. Big money difference from knox co schools to Alcoa.

Which begs the question again, why did Tonya leave. The facilities are great.....the best. The talent, with Maryville, Heritage and now WB, not as much available. Money ...more at times than you can shake a stick at for men coaches.  Again, why did she leave. If it is money for the program, that will not change. Knowing in detail the history of this program for the last 15 years, the women's program is second...period.

 

Also, why did the neighbor school, Lenoir City coach leave. Probably two different reasons.

    • From the stats I found online it looks like Gabe Eddington- .484, 44 total hits, 43 runs scored and 42 stolen bases.Meanwhile, on the mound, the Austin Peay commit had a record of 8-2, while compiling 50 innings pitched with an ERA of 1.82. Carson Parrott - 7-0 overall as a starting pitcher with a 1.41 ERA, 95 strikeouts and a save in 53 and 1/3 innings pitched. Parrott hit .392 with 3 home runs, 21 RBIs with a .566 OBP and .716 SLG. Jaxon Walker - .454, 53 hits, 38 RBI’s, 9 HRs.   Not saying the other three aren’t deserving but Quillen had better BA than all three and was just as dominate pitching.  Like I said I don’t know how you leave off the 3a Baseball player of the year last year when he put up better numbers.  I know Greeneville’s Coach wasn’t happy about it saying “I don’t give a s*** what anybody else says. That kid is the best player in Tennessee, and everybody else on our team rises to his level“.  I’m sure winning another State Championship as a junior is more important to Carson than the individual award, it’s just a head scratcher to not be nominated
    • What coach in their right mind would want to come here and set theirself on fire to keep her warm.
    • Shoulder not going to the #### show .   Macon will name the score this year.
    • Plenty of time. The former coach was busy with family and disappeared all summer anyway. Obvious choice has the same family issues. First game is in March 2025.
