Chattanooga area new coaches 2018-2019

[FootballFan51]

Looks like Walker Valley is getting Red Bank OC Drew Akins as their new HC. I think he is an up & comer, but this is a tough job... not much returning talent, not much of a feeder program. The good news is that they just have to win one District game a year to make the playoffs... the bad news is that they haven’t done it in 2 years... ironically, WV’s only win the last 2 years was against... Red Bank.

Boyd Buchanan looks to have hired Jeremy Bosken, who was an assistant at Cleveland a couple years & at Knox Halls last year.

They actually do have talent. It’s just difficult to see since they were starting mostly sophomores, some freshman and a only few seniors. Hopefully Coach Akins can get some of the athletes from other sports at WV to play football as well.

Bosken already burned his bridges at Halls that quickly, huh?

Interesting turn of events... 

Walker Valley hires former Boyd QB from Red Bank

Boyd hires former Cleveland Assistant from Halls

Halls hires Cleveland coach. 

Will Cleveland go after Red Bank head  coach (who used to coach at Cleveland)?

To go full circle if Red Bank coach left to go back to Cleveland, then the Walker Valley guy would immediately want to return to Red Bank and no one would blame him.

Yeah. That would be very interesting. 

Red Bank could do a lot worse than Akins, but living in Cleveland, it might be hard to pull him away to go back to Red Bank.

The Cleveland coaching search has been quiet... who is it going to be?

Don’t think a search has really happened yet. Apparently they are forming a committee sometime next week to begin looking into candidates.

The good news for WV is they are already in the playoffs since Catholic is going DII there are only 4 teams in their region. They could actually go 0-10 next year and make the playoffs.
