I like UH's program, but still hate to see a kid leave. Difficult situation for Clay but I guess thie kid is looking for more expoiser. Just a tough deal.

If he wanted more exposure he could have picked several places over Upperman. They have only fielded competitive teams the past few seasons. There are no guarantees they will continue to win.

my guess is 3a with 6a Cookeville on the schedule looked better than the current schedule and talent around him at Clay. Plus the move wasn't that far. I would have guessed he would have went to 4a LA being even closer, but I guess that his his families choice.

Of course it all assumptions that he is looking for more exposure. Is it at all possible that he left simply to a better academic school and is not even playing football?

as I dig I am hearing two stories on Endicott. 1 is he will be competing with 6'1 running qb transfer from Vegas to see who will be the start and play all three sports at UH. If true, to be the starter, he will have to have enough upside for UH to somewhat chage the offense up from the running qb style offense. Word is the kid from Vegas is pretty darn good. The other story I hear is he is coming into UH to just focus on Basketball and baseball. The guy said his parents think he will top out at 6'7-6'8...and think his future is not in football. Either way, great add to Upperman. Big loss for Clay.

well you gotta do what's best for the kid. He has the raw ability just needs to refine it a bit and add to it. Upperman had a great QB last year that got some exposure so it's a spot for him. 6'7 or 6'8 is nice height for basketball and crazy good for baseball pitcher. Good luck to him from this guy from SP. I know talent when I see it.

 

This will really hurt Clay IMO.

It won't really matter If the Clay Co. Commission doesn't approve a school budget. The school system could shut down next week.

Just saw in the HC that they passed a "maintenance of effort" budget at the deadline last night to keep schools open?

But they'll have to fund the federal mandates at some point they have no choice.

The article also said that this was the first year the school board had asked for additional funding in over 15 years. Gotta find a way.

Now speaking of Mr. Endicott, if he wants to come up to Cookeville and play quarterback his senior year we'd be glad to have him!

      $750,000 Lawsuit Files Against Warren County School District

      By pioneer42 · Posted

      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.

      I am going to assume you are not a lawyer, and most reasonable lawyers would not say the lawsuit has a zero percent chance in court. I agree with you that a coach has the ability to dismiss anyone from a team. However, Ms. Winfree was never presented with the opportunity to present her witnesses and have them tell the coaches and administrators what they heard. A lawyer could better explain the lawsuit and the grounds to you. Before you start making wild assumptions about the lawsuit, would it be too much to ask that you do a little legal research first? The lawsuit is dealing with due process, loss of property, and defamation.   You can read the lawsuit here: https://bdnewsletter.files.wordpress.com/2024/04/doc-1-complaint-filed-4-18-2024.pdf

      The administration took the path of backing the coach and whispering to people that the kid was a problem. The reality is that the kid was never a problem on a team or classroom. The player says she has witnessed who back her not saying the f-word.  Why did the coach make that story up and other stories? I am not Sigmund Freud and do not have an answer for the ex=-coach's behavior..
