If Rankin does leave or is forced out from word on the street, the AD should do his due diligence.  Coordinators don't always make good Head Coaches,  and from my understanding there have been many Head Coaching opportunities the last several years, just a question why has he been picked over from far lesser programs.  

“Forced out” after 267 state titles lol

Well of course anyone familiar with SP knows the booster situation although some down there say its not true.The source I have said SP reach out to Rankin and he turned it down first hand regardless of money.We are hearing if he indeed does leave which isnt confirmed yet it will be for an extra retirement as in Private sector.Until it's done dont believe all you hear.SP was never considered just to be clear.

Will you be around next week?

A Facebook friend shared this with me by private message this morning. His best friend is on a coaching staff in Tennessee (not Alcoa). That coach is good friends with Brian Nix. He told my friend that when he (Nix) was contemplating taking the Catholic job last year that Coach Rankin talked him out of it by assuring him that 2021 was his final season at Alcoa.

Was he really offered the Catholic job,  I heard from a friend within the Catholic program that they got the coach they set out to get from GA

I don’t know how far along things were between Nix and Catholic. I posted all that my friend told me. Any school is going to say that the coach they ended up with was the one they wanted the entire time. Welcome aboard.

    • 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!
    • 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.
