Quarles leaving Maryville

[MountainRebel]

Firing Coach Gaylor started the wheels into motion.

Nix?

Derek Rang from Dresden HS is the next head football coach at Maryville. You heard it here folks.

[Bravey]

Yep.  I think the names Hunt, Rang, Rosser will be mentioned by a lot of folks on this one.   

Hunt maybe .. dont see Rang or Rosser ..... Rang ( right or wrong ..baggage) and Rosser ( Rebels and rebel flag ??) Naw .... maybe Cane Ballard at Greeneville is a candidate ... and some past Maryville assistants that are coaching still ... will see what kind response from Middle TN

Nix?

Nix will be the one who replaces Rankin at Alcoa in a few years.

Seriously .. what a great person and Coach Quarles has been ... he will be missed and will be hard to follow but was impressed with his wanting to still impact young mens lives for this long a time.. guess he felt led to move forward and felt he had accomplished as much as he wanted at Maryville ... could see him at Furman for a couple years and then HC or a OC at a bigtime school .... !!!!! We can only hope its at the University of Tennessee .... 

[Bravey]

There will be tons of interest ..what better place to raise a family and live than in beautiful East Tn and Blount Co .. you sure you wanna go Coach Quarles ???

Rang has nothing hanging over his head outside of Knox County.  Nothing.  His personnel jacket is fine.  

 

Rosser is a darned good football coach, and a good person.  The Maryville folks I know couldn't care less what color skin a coach has.  Time to get past that one.

Just making a wish list. Hunt for offense, Nix for defense. Ellis running the show for a few years.

[oridgecat]

Will Quarles hire his own replacement?  If not, who would make the hire. Greg Roach?  Lol

Wow didn't see that coming. Good luck Quarels

HTV ..I agree ..Rang did nothing wrong really ... just bad circumstance for sure ... but does have that over his head .. Blount Co probably will not even ask about it if they interview ... Rosser is a great coach and great guy ..I agree ..would welcome him anywhere for sure .. just the idea ot the Rebels and the Flag might either make one or the other uncomfortable ...

Who ever gets the job has to remember their going to be the one the biggest pressure cookers of a lifetime like the ones that followed John Wooden, Bear Bryant, Pat Summit, Ted Wilson and Emory Hale.
