I agree.Parker's dad is the only one I know of.I am sure the Henrys are unhappy and may have put a call in to the Rams head master tho LOL!As TTU said no one is leaving as of yet,but if it does it will be in the spring.They live in Wartburg so he could play immediately in Baseball.GCA is expected to win gold again.

who lives in wartburg? The mckinney's live in coalfield unlike silvey that lives in loudon.

Parker is the real deal his brother not so much don't know how much there is to all this but I guarantee that Grace has contacted the Mckinney's don't think they will go but I guarantee that they have been talked to as far as the Henry's said it once and will say it again money talks

Its not legal for a Coach to contact kids or their families.

Is it illegal to offer a coach a job at another school??How would someone ever progress.My understanding is his father is a coach and got offered a better job at GCA middle two years ago and it came open again.That's a heck of an offer to turn down.A free private education at a school like GCA not to mention the opportunity to play for the best 1A baseball team in the state.I'm not a private guy but that's a pretty sweet deal.

That don't stop coaches from doing it just around here Grace catholic CAK coalfield Clarkrange greenback and and Harriman done it in basketball I am sure there is others might not be the head coach but there is other coaches on staff doing it

you say this in a way that casts these schools like automatically they did something wrong because some kid moved to their school....95% of the time it just isn't so. Parents/kids move for other reasons, not because some coach asked them. That rarely happens. Walk on the campus at CAK, Grace, etc.... There are many, many reasons to go there, they sell themselves. If some CAK fan states the obvious to a family friend, that isn't illegal. If some kid leaves wburg or Oliver springs to play football at CF or GB, who could blame them? Or leaves York to play basketball at clarkrange?

If my choices were Greenback or Grace .I'd pick Greenback. Good ole Country boy don't always fit in with the little preppy boys.Another thing is,Grace already has 3 QB's. You never know how many kids they are bringing in and how you would fit in. If I were the kid,I'd stay put. Now I could see Coaches taking a job,more money and just an easier job.

    • Eagleville hosting shows laziness on the part of the TSSAA and a complete disregard for the appearance of impartiality. Absolutely nothing against EHS. Its not their fault TSSAA is lazy.    I understand EHS staff work the games at Eagleville, and they don’t want to miss the EHS games. However this isn’t rocket science. It would take less than 1 hour to cross-train EHS and RHS volunteers at the opposite sites. If Eagleville (or any host)  makes the tournament, flip their game site and have the volunteers flip sites for the days their school plays at the opposite site. Magically the school’s fans would be present to watch the their kids play and the kids at least lose some familiarity and home field advantage.  It takes almost no effort and is a ~15 minute extra drive.    
    • We feel the pain!
    • Jason Lambert should be the only choice for the Baseball coaching position. 
    • 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
