He will jump ship if and when new school is built in Sullivan County.

Only if he wants to take a huge pay cut and start over with a whole new staff of assistants, which I don't see him doing.

When Science Hill hired Carter, they gave him a sweetheart deal where he got a lot more money than he was making in Sullivan County, tons of money for the team, brand new facilities, and the ability to get just about any ssistant coaches he wanted (like the Nelson brothers) and pay them more to be his assistants than head coaches get paid in Sullivan County.

Sullivan County will have new facilities going for it, but that's it.  That system is lousy about supporting athletics these days and the pay is only about 75% of what Johnson City pays.  They probably will hire someone promising from outside the system, but it won't be Stacy Carter.

Don’t forget the Devils

For Johnson City folks, that is an acceptable loss.  Losing to Betsy Crockett and DB in the same year?  Not so much.  Looking to be two years in a row.  They don't have Boone this year but losing the other three doesn't look so hot.

You're suggesting that a Sullivan County school wants him back.  You're also suggesting that he wants to go to a program that will have far, far less money, resources, and heck even facilities vs. where he is at right now.  West Ridge can only hope and pray  they sneak in 5A, if they are a 6A team it is going to be a very very tough place to coach.  Numbers right now point at them being 6A in two years.

New facilities?  If you are talking about new stands, sure, but as far as it is right now, Sullivan County schools will not be getting a state of the art field house or turf fields.  Heck, with the way money is right now, it's first couple of years may see that high school playing at South/Central for football.
