with the coach and AD making what they are, why would they want to leave? The good ole boy system works well in Warren County

That is the case just about anywhere you go. Only thing I can say about that is most school boards are elected. If they want to stay elected then they have to act on the will of the public in which elected you. I dare say that a few alumn, influential business folks and parents pull together and call a meeting with their  school board member and demand some accountabiliy would get their attention. You pay there salary through tax dollars. You have a right to expect them to put together a strong program. If not, you have the right to question if as taxpayers are you getting  a fair return for your dollar. A good way to present that is by showing that the salary paid out to high school coaches in 6A are pretty even. Should you not be able to expect a similar or a competitive return on that investment.

FYI, school superintendents are not elected in Tennessee, and Warren County is one of the lowest paying teaching jobs in middle Tennessee for a 6A school. 

I wasn't referring to superintendent. I was referring to school boad members. As far as I know most counties elect them. The other point you make is valid as to pay. I believe all teachers are under paid, but when it comes to coaches, there is usually a fair stipen that accompanies that teachers pay in conjunction.  May not be getting rich, but I do believe if the general consensus is that the majority of boosters, sponsors, parents and atheletes are unhappy with the program and the results they have a right as taxpayers to ask if this is the best option we have for our students in this particular role.

    • 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..  
    • I think they have they coach they want close to being done. I guess we will all see how this plays out. I hope the hire a good one. There are some players in the box for the next coach to work with.
