FWIW. I have heard that they want to hire JJ, but are facing backlash from community as well as HR downtown. .   I have also heard that if they can't hire him, they will fall back to a guy that used to coach at Bearden and left prior to last season.  

How could you possibly know this?

Cat, I go back to what I said earlier.  

That particular candidate has already had to clear a background check to be a supplemented coach in Knox County and everybody involved knew what the requirements for the position were before they brought him in for interviews.  He has a file with HR already.  

Don't believe everything you hear, especially from those with a slant one way or the other.

Sounds like the Milan guy who left for Maryville College.

This sets a dangerous precedent for the hiring of head football coaches in KCS. Basically they are saying that your level of education, background in the field of education and experience working with kids is irrelevant. This guy could quit in May and leave this team high and dry for an opportunity to coach rec league again. My boy would not play in a program like that. Sad day for KCS athletics.

Did I miss an announcement?

Also, seem like you’re calling the guy uneducated and saying his years of coaching youth kids and the last few years coaching at the high school level do not count as him “working with kids.” 
 

Some of you people are pretty pathetic.

So basically you value more a drivers Ed football coach over a football coach with an outside job? Private schools could careless as long as you produce.

*care less. Private schools could care less as long as you produce, careless would be the Bearden administration is careless when it comes to the potential negative impact this will have on the kids in their school.

    • And can you tell me who those two quarterbacks were, and every kid that was put into college from Bearden is a Bearden kid? It’s kind of why they graduated from Bearden.   and I would definitely not consider ETSU “waste”…
    • Most of this is complete gibberish. But the one part I could decipher is putting kids in college. This coaching staff hasn’t put a single Bearden kid in college. They completed wasted one of the best WRs in East TN and have ruined two talented QBs. All because they’re in over their heads. 
    • Well, I’d hope the new coaching staff thinks they are all that because they can always walk around the school, anytime they want, thinking that, especially for what they’ve done for the student athletes and the players, putting more kids in college in his first season than the old coaching staff did in numerous years combined, but we will just sweep over that because I know you don’t like facts. But trust me, nobody wanted Mr. Big britches, made the star player switch to quarterback, which is ultimately the reason he ended up transferring to play the position. He loved, but unfortunately, had to be at another school because Mr. Big Britches doesn’t like when a teenager knows more than him, but can’t expect much coming from a guy who used all class throwing pencils up into the ceiling and making fun of football kids who were failing class right to their face, and in front of numerous students, even projecting on the board most of the time.
    • After that first paragraph, I can see why you’re a TA and not a teacher. Have you made the move from South Knoxville to Bearden yet?    Maybe he left because he is an actual teacher and coach, and didn’t want to be associated with a group of foul mouthed middle school coaches who like to pretend they’re big time. 
    • Yeah and the coach is gone. Whole bizarre situation here. We played them a couple of times at MTSU last few years. She was a player for sure.
