Not sure what the rest of RuCo has to do with it, but the truth is under Stevens' watch, no team did less with more than LaVergne. They got an instant upgrade with Woodward

IDK. Hester, a great coach, couldn't win there either. I think they are like many metro schools.

Hester got the bottom of the barrel compared to Stevens. I'm not saying he would have went on a run like Oakland or Blackman has, but I think at the least he would have 8 games every year. Stevens couldn't win more than 6 in his best year

Hester also has an assistant who kept meddling.  He wanted his son to be the QB, the the young man had no arm

Alright, that's fair

Woodward may actually have a chance to be successful as that useless Principal at LaVergne retired today.  

The "useless principal" was the one he replaced.  The one who was fired after letting the school go to crap.  Under the new guy, the school has pulled pretty much even with Smyrna High in academic rankings.  Neither one is as good as Stewarts Creek though.

LaVergne under the most recent principal: #200 in the state -  not great but WAY better than under the previous guy...   https://www.schooldigger.com/go/TN/schools/0369001987/school.aspx

 

Smyrna... now actually ranked lower than LaVergne   https://www.schooldigger.com/go/TN/schools/0369001988/school.aspx

 

Stewarts Creek... head and shoulders above the other two:   https://www.schooldigger.com/go/TN/schools/0369002318/school.aspx

When Ash was running LaVergne Middle, the place was spotless.  You could eat off the floor.  During that same time, LaVergne High under the "leader" before him was filthy and falling apart.  I can't think of any other time when a principal was so awful that he was actually fired DURING a school year.  There were so many complaints on the condition of the school around that time to the point that the mayor of LaVergne actually joined the school board members in doing an inspection.

    • I don't know what's going on in the town of McMinnville, but I've read this and it's disturbing.  I'm a "player" person, and I want what's best for the player. If a player gets cut off the team because she said the "F word" then good grief. I mean, come on guys. I wish there was a way for the player to transfer to a different program and just play ball. There are a lot of athletes that are stuck because they're in crappy situations regarding their team/coach. This is player just happens to be one them.
    • Won't happen. College coaches will back the coach every time and it cost this young lady her senior season. Looks like the player may be right on this one. School let her  go after one season. This stuff happens more than you think. 
    • “No college is going to offer a scholarship to a player that is kicked off of the team.” For language? I’m not seeing that as a dealbreaker. 
    • Why did the coach get rehired after she was let go as an assistant by the former Warren County coach and the current AD?? Is that accurate?? I am very familiar with situations like this. Suprised lawsuits haven't happend before. If the coach unfairly let the player go, I think she has a shot because it cost her a scholarship. No college is going to offer a scholarship to a player that is kicked off of the team. Not going to happen. There are bad hires like this a bunch and kids are treated unfairly by coaches that can't coach a lick and have super long ropes somehow. Amazing how some of these coaches get hired and keep their job. 
    • I am going to assume you are not a lawyer, and most reasonable lawyers would not say the lawsuit has a zero percent chance in court. I agree with you that a coach has the ability to dismiss anyone from a team. However, Ms. Winfree was never presented with the opportunity to present her witnesses and have them tell the coaches and administrators what they heard. A lawyer could better explain the lawsuit and the grounds to you. Before you start making wild assumptions about the lawsuit, would it be too much to ask that you do a little legal research first? The lawsuit is dealing with due process, loss of property, and defamation.   You can read the lawsuit here: https://bdnewsletter.files.wordpress.com/2024/04/doc-1-complaint-filed-4-18-2024.pdf
