99Guy Posted April 18, 2020 Report Share Posted April 18, 2020 Hearing some heavy interest is generating around the Knoxville West job. Hearing there is interest from high school and college coaches here, not too sure if it's all 100% accurate but I would bet most is from the source(s) where it's coming from. Current established high school coach from the area is hot on this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a lot of athletes in that school that didn't play for Kessler that would probably play for another coach. However, Kessler was done wrong and I don't know if I could trust the administration there at West and yes I graduated from West. haha Who is this current "established" coach? Give clues at least I know you can't give names Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Turtle Posted April 21, 2020 Report Share Posted April 21, 2020 I hate rumor mils too however, I'm interesting in finding out who this person is. What names floating around for the HVA and LC jobs? I know you all have the inside scoop on the West job and leaving everybody in the blue about it so let's talk about the HVA and LC jobs then. What's going on there? What names floating around?

What's going on there? What names floating around? Lenoir City is a true crapshoot. New "Co-AD's" who are both lifelong football guys with zero basketball insight, knowledge or connections. I did hear 1 name that was offered but if true would be absolutely mind tingling. This 1 will be a true mystery until a hire is made I believe. HVA has the same big name in on it I hear as well as some other big interest across the state. This job is apparently getting some real attention due to it's high academics and location. Interviews are going on now with current head/assistant coaches, college coaches and former high school head coaches. I think this could be a good situation if administration is serious about winning. Edited April 22, 2020 by 99Guy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fredjones Posted April 22, 2020 Report Share Posted April 22, 2020 Mount Juliet is open. In fact, they don't have any basketball coaches (boys or girls) in the school. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boys coach is taking the new high school, Green Hill, job and taking 2 of the 3 assistants with him. The guy that said all was incorrect. Girls coach has retired from coaching, his words, and is just going to teach. One of his assistants says she is done also. The other was Larry Joe Inman who is a retired college coach including MTSU,TSU and Eastern KY. He did not teach anyway. That being said, I am told the principal that replaced the legendary Mel Brown is "difficult" to deal with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
