Stan is very private. Whether retired or coaching elsewhere, I wish him the best. We go back to when he was in college and I was a very young coach 40 years ago. Thanks for the responses.

He is a great man.

My question to this reply would be, how many athletes from Happy Valley, Unaka, and Cloudland are on Elizabethton's roster? 

At any one time probably a handful. 1 or 2 from Unaka/Cloudland. Happy Valley we've had players go there but we've had players from there come to EHS. The school's are about 3 minutes drive from each other so the water's murky there. But the people EHS gets from those schools, while talented like Russell was, don't compare to getting kids from the Knox area. Every team gets transfers etc so I'm not throwing stones about "recruiting" but there are some teams that have more outside talent than other teams do. 

Either way, I see EHS having a decent season, not as good as previous years. I'm thinking an 8-2 season with losses coming from SH and Greeneville. South/TN I could see us maybe dropping one of those though

You guys will win 8 games based on tradition alone.    9-1 is how it ends....

Elizabethton does not play Tn high. Cherokee took their place

Oh yeah, I completely forgot we swapped them out. I haven't looked at the schedule in a while and was just going off the previous years. We also play WB as well so a couple of new teams on the schedule for this season.

    • Tax payer dollars are paid for certified teachers to "teach" and then coach. The primary job is to teach.  There are some district that ay awesome supplements and others that don't. Dyersburg and Dyer County are pretty close if I remember correctly. I would imagine that Football and basketball are above $10,000 now.  I've heard that Milan is $20,000 for boys basketball. I would imagine that football is more than that in Milan.  Collierville has camps that coaches get paid extra for. 3 camps a year, 100 kids a camp, $30,000 right there.  There are places like Memphis-Shelby County schools where the supplements are garbage even for the head coaches. I made less than $3,000 as the head assistant at Germantown in 2015 when we were 26-4 and one of the best teams in the Southeast. As a head middle school coach next year I will make between $4-5,000 at a municipal in Shelby County.  Coaches should be compensated for the jobs that are required but lets keep in mind that they are educators first.  It's pretty frustrating to other teachers that work their tale off teaching 6-7 classes a day to watch someone roam campus, not teach (or have very minimal responsibilities), and get paid the same (more with supplements) as a person who has the some years of experience or sometimes less. 
    • This will get coaches leaving the profession very quickly if this kid wins this case. This is absurd... 
    • yeah money aint right there anymore
    • I suppose you are correct but from my understanding it was going to be a situation of the HC saying yay or nay to every play
