March kids out in the dead periods, and let me know.  Better yet, let TSSAA know, let's see how that goes.

 

Dead period is only 2 weeks.  I guarantee you during that month, like you stated, they are doing work!  It’s a 12 month job!!!

Do I actually need to post the TSSAA bylaws?

 

I’ve been reading the thread! Not sure why your so upset. Yes it’s a dead period. Coaches work around the clock and during the dead period. Fields, getting fall practice schedules ready, equipment, list can go for days. Not one person on here said that the coaches were working the kids out personally during the dead period. Now they probably do send them a workout plan to take home and do. I’m still trying to figure out why you are so mad. Cheer up bud it’s all going to be ok!

You can post them but why?  Coaches work 12 months out of the year dude.  Why is it only you who thinks that they don’t?   Coaches do not work during the dead period but that is not a full month.  Count your losses and just drop it.  You do not grasp what quality coaches do.

Any good coach is working 12 months. There is more to being a coach than just working with the team during practice/games. Fields must be maintained, eligibility must be maintained, cloth and equipment, recruitment for colleges and forming those next level relationships, supporting student athletes in other sports, etc. There is a lot more but everyone (well almost everyone) already knows this. Coaches even work during the dead period. Imagine two weeks going by without mowing, painting, or getting everything ready for that first week back. Preparation is key even if the kids are not around.

My point, which gets lost by people who are unwilling to read or remember, is that 60,000 a year is more than a suitable income for someone in Hartsville, TN with no other responsibilities other than coach football.  Also, that Football in the state of Tennessee is NOT a 12 month job despite what fencebirds say on here.

Blake makes more than the head coach at Lebanon lol, Just let that sink in.

Ghost - Teachers are ten month employees. However, any good teacher/coach works twelve months. Just because teachers only get paid to work ten months does not mean they do not work more. Clearly you do not understand what it means to be a good teacher/coach. 

Here's a big reveal.

I teach a core subject and coach have won multiple district championships in my sport.

:)

Unless his teaching salary is 60k he isn't making more than Lebanon HC. Been teaching 20 years with a masters and getting the HC supplement. He is real close but he hasn't surpassed him. I know the LHS HC and I know how to use Google.

Ghost - If you teach a core subject, it must not be English. Ha just giving you a hard time on that one. If you are a teacher, thank you for your service. So you are a ten month employee. Do you ever work more than required? And you have won multiple district championships....congrats! Did you work just during your season? 

Must not be a football coach.  Every coach I know works 12 months out of the year coaching the kids, prepping, field work, workouts, passing leagues, getting colleges to notice kids, any internal affairs, coaching clinics, etc.  If you are not working then your behind bottom line.  Must be jealous of that $60,000 number.

    • Hmmmmm……doe dee doe doe….i drove the lawnmower down to practice today…….hmmmm…… we got some new faces………. One can run faster than my lawnmower in fifth gear…… a few will be disappointed come November that they jumped ship and went down to that sewage facility……. You can bet the lawnmower on that. 
    • 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.
