HTV Posted March 20, 2017 Report Share Posted March 20, 2017 HTV, what do you know about Rang heading back east? The allure of getting back closer to home is always compelling. But that said, I don't know anything definite one way or the other at this point. Derek has told me that he believes that he has a great job at Dresden and could see himself staying there for a long time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HTV Posted March 20, 2017 Report Share Posted March 20, 2017 You may be surprised as to what will happen in the next little bit then. No. I, I won't be. I know what may or may not be going on. It's no secret that Derek and I are friends. It's just not my practice to comment on coaches when they look at other job possibilities. It's high school football, not college or professional football. I don't name names because I don't want to put a coach in a bad position with his current school if things don't work out elsewhere for him. Something may happen, and something may not happen.

I'm assuming that this is what you were alluding to: http://wate.com/2017/03/21/gatlinburg-pittman-hires-new-head-football-coach/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HTV Posted March 23, 2017 Report Share Posted March 23, 2017 (edited) Haha, wow HTV, your knowledge does impress me as do your sources. But let's just say it's not just one "surprise" I'm banking on. Bank on it now. Edited March 23, 2017 by HTV Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chsbobcat09 Posted March 23, 2017 Report Share Posted March 23, 2017 What makes you 100% sure HTV? I know the names being discussed but no confirmation yet. I guess the key word is Yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoachingFromTheStands Posted March 23, 2017 Report Share Posted March 23, 2017 I wish you all had information like this regarding the future coach of Loudon Football lol. Not sure they have made any steps forward in the progress to find a new coach. It is just odd that over a month has gone by and nothing has been done.

First of all, why did you wait until February to get rid of Campbell!!! Should have been done in early December! A new coach should have been hired by now. Instead your going to go into Spring practice saying who's that guy and what's your name! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HTV Posted March 23, 2017 Report Share Posted March 23, 2017 What makes you 100% sure HTV? I know the names being discussed but no confirmation yet. I guess the key word is Yet. Because a student can't participate in workouts (in season or off season) with a team until he/she is enrolled in that school, per TSSAA rules. That key cog I was referencing was participating in off season work with the guys in Fountain City yesterday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2goldenrings Posted March 27, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2017 I believe two things.... Since its become a Central/Loudon thread.... 1. Interviews for the Loudon job should be this week. If I read the newspaper correctly Coach Roberts wanted the coach named by April 1 2. Knox Central should be getting the QB from Carter....is that the big grab you all are referring to??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CoachingFromTheStands Posted March 27, 2017 Report Share Posted March 27, 2017 Which paper did you read that about Loudon in? From the way it sounds, they have taken over a month to start interviews, but plan to take only a week to decide on a coach? They already know who they are going to hire (which I believe) or they are just that big of a mess. Either way, I hope that deadline is the correct one. As far as the QB transfer, that could be a game changer depending on how well he fits in with the team and the system or how they can make it fit around him.
