If Bearden wants Cummings they better work fast. From what I’ve been hearing on my perch at West High, Oak Ridge is wanting him bad. 

Scott is no longer interested in the Bearden position and never really was from what I have heard. He did not interview for the position. Rusty is a serious candidate from what I have been told. Pickins are slim for this job.

I agree with @HTV that hiring a head coach as a TA would be pretty wild but that is the position they have put themselves in. It isn’t the like the old days for sure. This is an easy hire for the AD. Bradley is a state championship winning coach. The folks in charge need to end this circus and move forward.

Bradley and an out of state candidate will interview today. That should about wrap it up. Hopefully they will have a coach in place (Bradley) before Friday. Very interested to see how the pass heavy approach will look in 6A.

Not sure it's going to be done that quickly.  I was told it will likely be more like after school dismisses for the holidays.

They interviewed four candidates on Saturday and fell behind so they decided to split the panel into two parts to get through the interviews faster (wow would be an understatement). Bradley and an out of state candidate have their second interviews today. I don't see them drifting from Bradley since this is what the booster club has wanted since October from what I have been told. This will be done before school is done for the term on 12/17.

The booster club isn't making the hire.  

Things don't work that way in Knox County any longer.  

But believe what you will.  I'll continue to trust the word of those actually a part of the process.

    • So much talk about an investigation about student record manipulation and then everything has went silent. Has anyone heard how the investigation is going?
    • Basically what you're saying is schools can basically bully students around and get away with it because they are protected. I agree to a certain extent but when schools decisions to keep knuckleheads on staff starts costing kids careers and a college education there is a problem. Our school system last week had a teacher supposedly push a kid and the parents went to the law and the teacher is suspended. So I wouldn't say that they can just do what they want without liability. This case don't pass the smell test because the coach had already been fired before and she got fired after a year on the job. Sounds like the student was right in this case on the outside looking in because the coach gets fired after one year. How many coaches get fired after one year?? Not many. 
    • Problem with DB football goes beyond coaching. Like Waco said. Thr band is the main focus of their community and school. They have the resources to be a championship level team. Guarantee Ballard or Witten could have them nationally relevant at some point but everyone down to peewee would have to buy in and at DB we all know that would never happen. 
    • I know the RB from OR he’s fast and has good hands. Is good on special teams also. Didn’t want to play defense over to the Ridge.
