I'm asking this to the OR fans close to the program...   Does having such a rich football history really matter now?     OR has won or been in several state title games in the past, but those guys are all long graduated.    Does that have any meaning to a new coach coming in?      

uh??? they went to state in 2020 man.

 It doesn't if the current student body can't support great football now. Oak Ridge will have a very good team in 2022 though, just loaded with good athletes and their 9th graders are really good.

 I agree on the Witten thing, he's not moving to OR from his home. I'd sure take a hard look at Steve Matthews if I was Joe G.

 BTW, I heard from a source who knew all these moves were going to happen( Joe retires, Mullins resigns, Joe takes over AD) and he told me to keep my eye on Scott Cummins. We'll see.

I don't know the Knox-vegas area like you guys, but if I remember right didn't Cummins win a state title @ Knox West a few years ago?

Good fan support.Still have great talent.Runner up 15 yrs ago and last yr.At least 3 teams that was good enough to win it all in last 10 years.Not many places can compare to the ship on a Friday night.With the right staff they could win multiple chips and not a lot of schools can say that.

    • Making 100,000 a year not a bad gig
    • Yep..could possibly have 3 teams ranked in top ten in the same four team district.
    • He had an opportunity to be the OC at TC without final say in the offensive gameplan. How does that work? Smh. Head Coaches are public figures regardless of the community size, and yes there are some out there, it’s irrelevant and not fair to them to name them on here. Also why is said “head coach” the head coach of the MS baseball program to begin with? Oh because no one wants it. As for the Lebanon question, I know what I’ve been told so just going off here say, some of the boosters were not happy with his roster decisions and wanted him out. Although he lead them to 20+ wins in multiple seasons 
    • A head coach in the school system? No I dont think so. Head coaches are public figures in small communities. Not trying to slander, but this is an actual question. Do you know why he was forced to resign at Lebanon? This was his second chance.  He already left trousdale once and had an opportunity to come back a couple of years ago but spoiled that. 
    • Are you perfect? Nope no one is, at the end of the day there are several teachers/coaches and even some in the Trousdale County school system that have DUI’s on their record. You’re correct on it being a bad mistake and it unfortunately could have ended horribly. While you consider the consequences minimal, I can assure you they are not. Ultimately I hope and have faith that he will learn from it and use it to better himself.
