With the money they can pay and looking at what Lipscomb did with their hire I would say its going to be a big time hire, Not a re-cycled coach. Rankin, Quarles, or even Jeff Fisher probably would all be frontrunners for this job. They are going to pay to get big name. 

Ricky isnt the AD at Lipscomb and Ensworth doesnt have to make a splash hire. You may be right though.

I can gurantee that Ingle has been asked/approched for years about when he would take over for Ricky. Its a natural assumption since Ingle played two sports for him and Ricky gave him his first shot at coaching as an assistant at Ensworth.

Right Cpa isn't Ensworth. I'll put my money on CPA every friday!

I’ll give you another name that wouldn’t be a bad choice for Ensworth.  Tony Brunetti from Pearl-Cohn.  A very successful head coach who played at the next level and has sent loads of players on to play at the next level.

I will bet BIG money that Rankin will apply.  Be a horrible hire though if they did.

 

Good Luck Ensworth.

I may be way off base with my remark, but LOD you seem to have something against Rankin.  Obviously, hiring the winning-est coach in TN football history would be a terrible idea.  He shows no clue that he is slowing down. If I were Ensworth, I would definitely hear his sales pitch.

It is NOT his winning I have a problem with.  It is how he treats his players and how he wins.  Publics are NOT supposed to recruit, but he DOES big time!  Also most really good coaches care about grades.  He doesn't.  A good Coach will tell ALL his players about the NCAA clearing house and the requirements to get there.  He does NOT.  A good coach encourages College Scouts.  He does NOT allow them at practice and does NOT talk to them.

Basically his way is all about HIM and NOT about the kids!

My son started for him his whole 4 years at R'dale.  Son and most of the team literally hated him.  Most would tell you what Assistant Coach they played for gladly.  If I had it to do all over again, my son would have been at either Oakland or Eagleville.  Would not have gotten his Gold Ball ring, but he would have been better off for it.

So in a word, NO I do not like or respect him either as a Coach or person.  BTW I have also told him that to his face and would do it again if I HAD to talk to him.

Also ask BA about him and how much money he cost them in legal fees and about the split he caused between publics and privates.  That is NOT a secret here in Tennessee among those who have been around Tn High School football during the last 20 years.

    • HVA is a dump and will never be good at football. It's a baseball school. Look at the types of homes being built and families moving in. Not football families. People will move in and look at the school and choose to play for another program. This issue has been snow balling for a decade now
    • Also no shot at an indoor facility it took ya'll almost a decade just to turf blankenship
    • You will not be able to replace Dozier he was a stud and wasted for years. Heyward started strong and then fell of but he will be missed still Rembert could fly and was also underused. Not being replaced. Track has started to close the gap with football. It does not help that the current AD is just stealing money(collecting his check) while the assistant AD is a XC/Track guy who always hated football. Current AD is too worried about not hurting anyone's feelings to do anything at all. Heck he is gotta be 70 plus and looks like a fool wearing kid shoes
    • Will Trez remain 2A after the influx of another 2A school?  
    • As I said somewhere earlier in the thread, the original plans had no outdoor athletic facilities being part of the campus.  The original plan was for HVA to use facilities at nearby schools.  Very late in the process they came up with a plan and found budget to have minimal facilities and crammed them in to space that never was intended for athletic facilities.
