Be surprised if a current member of the staff isn't promoted as quickly as possible.

Agreed @HTV this shouldn’t be a long process at all there is a coach there waiting in the wings.

What does his resume look like? It seems like I’ve seen his name a lot here.

 

Resume' is legit! Has won 2 state championships been to a couple more with West and Catholic as a Defensive coordinator (maybe wrong on the catholic possibly position coach). Coached offensive line  and Defensive Ends being a part of some really good Central teams back when he first he started coaching.  Kevin Lane is hard nosed, great ball coach, and a WINNER. If I am Halls I would call him offer him the job and make him say no. If he says no I would offer it to Brent Hughes.

Sounds like a great canidate. Has he ever been an HC? What makes you think he would turn it down?

Not talking anything away from KL. Great man and coach but I think Brent Hughes is waiting in the wings for this. Coach Cummings did a great job during his time at Halls and a lot of that couldn’t have been done without Brent. You add in that he’s a Halls boy, should be an easy hire for the administration.

No he has not been HC did not have a degree, but with Bearden doing what they did could open some doors for people like Kevin Lane. I don't know why he would turn it down other than the thought of would you leave West High School or possible private job to go to Halls?

I don’t see any other school doing what Bearden did. From what I’ve heard about the principal at Halls he’s a young common sense guy.

They are both Halls boys just Lane never went back.  I completely agree about Brent Hughes from what the bird has heard great, guy, coach, and the kids really like him. Hughes and Lane both have done a really good job where they are at and they have been.  I don't know much about Halls admin but you never know. Will definitely be interesting to see what unfolds in Halls.

I know both well having been around Kevin during his tenure at Catholic and have known/coached Brent since he was in middle school (and his parents for 45 years). Kevin is obviously more mature and has an excellent resume with a few gold balls to show for it. Brent has been involved with both Central and Halls programs.

Brent was also at Powell during 2013 with Tobi Kilgore, and I believe with him at Karns for at least a year before he became a certified teacher.  

Great young guy.  

And I don't know Kevin well, but his reputation as a solid football coach is well respected.  

Both would be great choices.

      I will never forget the 1983 Heritage vs Maryville game. I remember driving home and listening to WGAP. Can't remember the announcers name. He asked Coach Story why he kept going for 2? Story told him " Why didn't you ask Renfro that last year"

      2024 Mustangs

      By 1983 · Posted

      Well nothing new, the Mustangs are really talented again this coming season!  They very well could go undefeated in regular season.  We shall see what happens in postseason.  I think the path to state title game is a little clearer than years past.  I think the Stangs are going to be really good and I think the traditional teams around in 2A are not going to be as strong.  It should be a fun season!

      Way too early 1A favorites 2024

      I would not put too much stock into the UH over Eagleville. From what I understand they were pretty banged up in that tourney. Catcher was out, they were throwing pretty deep in their bullpen and a few key players were beat up in their infield. Sounds like they are pretty healthy heading into the district tournament. Look at their schedule, they played some really good teams.
