That is a huge hire for Obion boys. Dang... Coach Turner has tons of head coach experience at both the high school and college level. Home run for Obion boys.

I agree that he is a good coach but you've still gotta have the players. 

The biggest question for any school in West TN is can they get by Memphis when the postseason comes.

Chester County, Liberty, Fayette Ware still open.

any word on who gets these 3 jobs?

 

We all know Liberty is open but it hasn't been posted on the TSSAA website. 

I can't remember but I think the Chester County job was posted but the post is gone.

Fayette Ware was posted and that post is gone. 

Liberty might be an inside hire from within the district.

Chester and Fayette are probably interviewing if it hasn't been announced and they're not advertising anymore. I don't know who will be interested in these spots. They're kinda like purgatory if you ask me

I hear you. Hope the outgoing coach or somebody has taken care of scheduling and the summer for the kids.

Word out of Liberty is they are having a hard time finding a coach

Word out of Chester County is they couldn't get the top 2 guys they wanted and are close to offering it to someone else

No word out of Faytette Ware???...

Word of Lexington is they are close to hiring an assistant and will make an offer as soon as the girls head job is filled.

    • Laughable, your the one that got on CoachT looking for a show. Vetetoe drank his "tea" and needs to live with the consequences. Thats the thing most coaches teach is "Accountability". West brings most of it upon his self he practices middle school kids for 3 and a half hours a day and burns them out before they even get to high school. You know the old saying a house divided cant stand. BOE vs DOS in the courts , Middle vs High (running 2 different programs that don't sync together), Footballwatch vs anyone who talks about his family , Cam615 vs Reggie. Scary times we are living in and will not see the daylight for 3 or 4 years. 
    • See that’s where you’re wrong my friend. If I was West, I would have made sure y’all stopped talking all that nonsense about my family months ago. You’d be scared to see my face or hear my name. You’ve got the wrong man. My kids still go to trousdale county schools and plan on staying. Lets be the Mr. Police you’re supposed to be and stop causing more problems than there already is.
    • Siegel girls basketball hires Bryan Weakley as coach - Leaves Forrest Boys to return to Murfreesboro
    • College coaches stopped looking at Winfree after the coach destroyed Winfree's reputation and shared things with coaches.
    • Congratulations to Coach Runyon. He seemed to do a good job when I watched his teams play. He didn't coach like he was ready to retire. With that being said... both coaching positions in the same district open... which one of these jobs is the best job and why?  also, it is a coincidence that they both leave at the same time...
