Nevermind, I hear the school board may be stepping in.

I'm not sure where your getting your information but the school board, more specifically the School Board Director is who brought both Ross and McCurry in the mix to start with.  The Principal and Athletic Director didn't want to fool with either one of them because of the obvious reasons mentions previously.  They had a couple of in house guys that the administration wanted to go with and that got shot down by the Director.  I don't know the Director nor anyone else on the school board but they have completely taken this hire out of the hands of the Principal/Athletic Director and continue to drag their feet which as we all know have put this program several weeks behind everyone else.  I like everyone else also believe it will be either McCurry or Ross because those are the two guys the Director wants. No one else wants those fellows.  Which makes no sense to me why the Director is so amendment about getting his guy in there when hes retiring in a couple months anyway, whats he care who gets the job??  So when people wander why some of these small towns do crazy things its because you have one person pulling the strings on every move and now your gonna force your school administration to work with a guy that they never wanted in the first place but rather is being forced on them.  Small town politics at its best.

Is Wattenbarger still teaching at Sequatchie or did he resign or retire completely?

    • From my understanding, Jay Graham pretty much took over HC responsibilities in that game, so you can thank him. Cute Andy didn’t need help, though. Cute Andy could’ve beaten us without any assistant coaches.
    • 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...
