Which is exactly why I said I would be concerned as the interim moving forward.  You said:  Good man, passionate about the TEAM.  That is usually what administrators look for in a coach.  The last thing EH people should look for right now are wins.  The last 6-7 years for East Hickman have been brutal.  I keep hearing stories of great kids walking the hallway not wanting to play.  They need to hire someone who can fix the culture and get kids out of the hallway and get administration on their side and share the same vision.  

The last thing they should be looking for is WINS!!!! Wow did you actually say that, wins are like sales in business, make enough of them and all your pain goes away. Also you want the kids to come back then WIN!!! I agree that the next coach needs to restore confidence in the program and unite the student body to get the players to come back, but none of that will matter if he isn't a good coach and isn't able to develop the talent he has. Sometimes as a coach you have to manufacture WINS !!

Why Yes, yes I did. I even said it out loud.  When the culture of a program is as bad as it has been at East Hickman, then the culture needs to be fixed.  Get the kids out and wins will probably follow, in due time.  Not right away.  Notice I did not say the "new coach" should not worry about wins.  Coaches always worry about wins. That is a given.  People in Lyles, Wrigley, Bon Aqua & the occasional kid from Santa Fe that may cross the border need to worry about their child being in a good culture.

    • The Sheriff has agreed to provide help.  Waiting on Mr Basketball…… @Sackmaster50 and @AlphaNiner are in the cupboard. 
    • Began as a discussion, and evolved into a trainwreck...   Don't know how many of the TC "old guard" are left, but I feel for y'all.   Everybody has to get the last word... no matter the cost and sometimes the cost is high.
    • He may have possibly said that to get the best out of him. Back when I was in school word got out I was going to transfer and Coach Story popped off and ask Coach Wilson in front of the team if Maryville was going to get a jock strap in return on this trade. That got back to me and I got fired up and stayed just to show them up. Now today Coach Story is one of my best friends.
    • Dylan's Dad, I'm glad you replied. I wanted to reply but wasnt willing to take the bait. There were 20 wrestlers on the team. I may be mistaken and correct me if I'm wrong but I believe 5 of the 20 attend McCallie right now and one will next year. At most, there are/were 6 kids on that team who attend McC. That leaves 14 other team members who have ZERO affiliation with McC (outside of maybe some friends) who represented our state to the best of their ability and wrestled their butts off that weekend. That weekend was a first for Tennessee and obviously a small step in the right direction for us as a state. Congratulations TEAM TN BLACK!
