So whats the inside scoop on why the rug was pulled on this fellow after only 1 year?  I mean usually you would have to have inappropriate contact with a student, be doing some shady stuff or arrested, something crazy to be kicked to the curb that quick.  I'm not buying that it had anything to do with him only winning 3 games, I watched Whitwell play last year and they were lucky to win any games after loosing all them horses that won the state title and that has nothing to do with coaching thats purely on personnel and lack thereof.  So what could it be?  All you valley guys seem to know everything so please fill us outsider in on the truth here?   

Couple thoughts, you don't make a move like this unless you already got a sure fire hire in mind that your willing to break the bank for or your administration is lacking in common sense and is so far out of touch with reality that they make a bold move like this for a close personal friend, family member or some other shady back door deal.  The reality is Nick Saben could win over night with the talent that CURRENTLY there, yes anyone can build a program over time, something this ole boy didn't get!  Now lets say the Admin dont have a guy already, who in their right mind would risk coming there, moving, investing resources to take that program with the risk of being ousted after a year?? 

Thoughts?

    • Did this happen? Does anyone know? Ripley has their HC job posted on the bulletin board over the weekend.
    • Coalfield definitely isn't the same team they've had the past few years. They are still the favorites to make it out of their region because of their pitching. They have 1 arm that sits low to mid 80s and 2 other arms that are mid to high 70s with good off speed stuff. If you can avoid their top 3 bats in their lineup then you have a shot to beat them. Their 4-9 hitters are average at best. Wartburg's ace was able to shut them down last week in the game Wartburg won 4-2. 
    • It is the longest season. Plus, 30 games a year. No Christmas break. I would say basketball is the most time consuming. 
    • No movement on Chester? South Gibson? Gibson County?
    • Winfree's senior year was the season she needed to secure more college interest. That opportunity was taken away from her. A lot of false assumptions can be made about what happened and what the options are. Unfortunately, the former coach and administration did not allow Winfree to have due process. A lawsuit was filed for a reason, and it will run its course by people who conduct discovery and take depositions. Unless the parties settle out of court, a lot of the pertinent issues will come to the public surface. I wrote about many of the issues here: https://bdnewsletter.news/2023/11/17/grounds-for-investigation-and-suspension/ I interviewed Winfree after she was dismissed from the team and wrote about it here: https://bdnewsletter.news/2023/12/01/a-new-interview-with-sable-winfree/ Winfree had been on teams in Warren County since the fourth grade and never been dismissed from a team. The real questions are why was Winfree dismissed from the team, and why the administration backed a coach whom they did not rehire.
