Well what all of us locals done knew, it's now became official. The Dekalb County Tigers head baseball coach, Tracy Sloan, was relieved of his teaching and coaching duties today. He will not return to the school in any form or manner next calendar year.

 

I'm extremely glad the administration has decided to part ways with CTS after the conclusion of this years 2016 season. There is nothing worse than a lame duck coach, and that's especially true at the college and pro levels in any sport. IMO, there just wasn't any reason in delaying in the inevitable, so kudos to the people in power that made this move.

 

In a mediocre 3 year run as coach, Tracy lead the Tigers to a 53-50 overall record. He was 26-16 in district play, and 8-7 in the post season. I will be the first to say that Coach Sloan is a good man, but he's a slightly below average baseball coach. He squandered and wasted a ton of very good talent over his three years. We should of been competing for district and region titles during his run, not fighting to remain a game over .500.

like always....CM and UHS at the top and will battle it out in the districts

No, not like always, not quite. I know that DC slipped recently under Sloan, but we use to just about always be in contention for a district title. They typically stayed in the top 3 under Odom. It use to be UHS, DC, and LA would battle it out for the top spot year in and year out.

    • RR, you might remember. Didn’t someone hide the kicking shoe that game? It seems I remember we had missed a kick the week before, and we needed all the points we could get. We thought we had a better chance going for two, so $?&@$ hid the shoe after the first miss that game. No one on our sideline looked for it very hard.
    • I will never forget the 1983 Heritage vs Maryville game. I remember driving home and listening to WGAP. Can't remember the announcers name. He asked Coach Story why he kept going for 2? Story told him " Why didn't you ask Renfro that last year"
    • TSSAA will let them all go to Mase.
    • Well nothing new, the Mustangs are really talented again this coming season!  They very well could go undefeated in regular season.  We shall see what happens in postseason.  I think the path to state title game is a little clearer than years past.  I think the Stangs are going to be really good and I think the traditional teams around in 2A are not going to be as strong.  It should be a fun season!
