Thanos I won't get into the black white issue because I believe a good coach is just that. It doesnt matter of skin color nor should it. However the difference between BA, MBA, Ensworth etc is that they are all private schools that offer financial aid. 

No excuse . That's a horrible excuse at that . Everyone under the TSSAA umbrella should have to play by the sea rules no exceptions . This guy can come to your games and school and it's ok but this one can't . The logic behind that is unacceptable. If I coached in metro and I wanted a kid and the kid wants to play at my school why not let him, heck BA MBA FR does it and no one complains .

Sad but true . Black coaches win they are cheating or they have athletes. White coaches win they're a good coach and they discipline the kids . Black coaches lose they are undisciplined and rely on athletes , white coach loses they are still a good coach but people steal their kids .   That is the basic run down on perspective of coaches in metro based off these threads . 

This is most knowledgeable post on coacht ever. All true. Not sad at all. It is the absolute truth about Metro coaches. Great post Darkness.

I guess it's not a racial issue sounds like for some it's more of an ethical issue. Rules state public schools cannot recruit. We have public school divisions and private school divisions because of this very issue. So offering financial aid does matter. If following rules and guidelines is something you personally don't care to do it shows your own character.

William Johnson cheated at Stratford. 

Tim Thompson cheated at Melrose. 

Teli White cheated at Trezevant. 

 

Those are all facts that cannot be disputed.  The color of their skin is irrelevant to me at the end of the day.  I'm not going to give a "hypothesis" on who may/may not be breaking the rules because unless it's proven it's all hearsay at the end of the day.

That is 3 coaches out of how many? Carlton Flatt, Marshall County coaches, Giles County coaches, but I'm not getting into all that but they are great coaches right . E Woods, A. Broome, M. Fitzgerald, T. Brunetti, and the others to name are not all cheaters. Speculations are all you hear but no sanctions like the previous listed. I guess the Coach that won state in Knoxville cheats as well. I'm pretty sure a lot of the guys on here complaining about cheating and racism cant coach themselves out of a wet paper bag or get steamrolled vs the coaches they complain about  so they hide behind the names and talk junk.

What Marshall County coach?  I wasn’t aware that Marshall County was busted by the TSSAA for breaking the rules.  The whole race card thing wasn’t an issue until the previous poster made it sound like all white coaches are proclaimed as great and all others are proclaimed as either cheaters or products of great talent.  That complaint is total garbage.

Teli White DID NOT get busted by TSSAA. Your facts are wrong.

What is Overton waiting for? Just go ahead and make your mistake.

You really have it out for Overton. Why? The only head coaches they have had in about 50 years are Coutras, Mullican. Anderson,  and Williams. What metro school can match that consistency? You also seem to have a grudge against the principal. Her choice of a basketball coach last year seems to have worked out well,  maybe football will also.

#1. You forgot Pot Graves---yes he was Co-head coach. Maybe you do not remember that.

#2. Her choice for basketball coach before this one was a dreadful mistake that cost them what should have been at least a District championship team for  2 years.

#3. The three finalists are  nowhere  near the  caliber of those you have had before them. Not  even in the  same stratosphere.

 

Like I said, go ahead and make your mistake. No reason to wait now. Damage is done.

    • The winds of change are blowing in Hartsville.     Will be an interesting follow.    Would go back to the 90s and turn black the clock!
    • Did he promise you a coordinator job or something if he ever got a head coaching job? He resigned? He was at the top of the dugout last night calling plays. I wonder if those 30+ parents would let him give their kids a ride. by the way the board meeting was last night and it was not mentioned. must have been at the work session earlier this week which is not public. must be trying to keep it quiet.  Since you know so much, how much is Robbie Atwood willing to pay Adam Cothron?  Didn't you slander Eden earlier on here? You also didn't know he was a faculty coach again so how much do you really know? Some people outside this county baffle me with their need to slander others.    
    • He resigned smh, and have you ever heard of charged but not convicted. Some people in this county baffle me with their need to slander others. Have you asked any of the 30+ parents that signed a petition to get him reinstated at the board meeting this week how they feel about this? Just let it play out, at the end of the day the only people that will bring TC back are the ones that know what its about at its core.    People hate losing and they aren't used to it at TC. I for 1, and I'm sure others too, understand having a dip in talent and not being able to compete for a state title every year. But in the past, TC teams have outworked more talented teams, they didn't continuously lose the turnover battle, they didn't commit 8+ penalties in several games each season, and I believe several of the folks in town that want Blake out feel as if he is neglecting the history of the program. This is from a source that used to be extremely close to the program (not me lol), Blake gets out of school midday and the players show up and there is no practice plan or itinerary.  I also understand those that are on team Blake, when he has loads of talent, he wins. He does know football and he is a tremendous DC, and if the rumors are true then he will do great things. As for the board member issue, it is what it is, everyone that's true to the county know that and nothing has changed. I agree though that they should strive to make the facilities as good as we can. And as far as potential candidates, I agree there is very few options. West, Vetetoe (yes I know), and couple others that could have some interest. Whatever happens is massive for the program during a pivotal time before the next big wave of stars make their way through.
