I exchanged some tweets with Coach Duncan and he treated me nice and said good things about Coach Gaddis. I wish him the best.

Thanks HTV for the heads up.

He and Joe have been friends for a long time.  Shared a lot of the same coaching philosophies over the years.  

I was happy to see Clark get to the 200 win plateau.  It was something that was important to him.

Yep.  

Social media, personal trainers, year round 7 on 7, and helicopter parents have changed the high school football landscape in a big way.  Some of it for the good, but most of it no so much.  Too much pressure for coaches to win immediately, even after taking over bad programs.  Coaching burnout is happening much more often than it did in times past.  

All good topics to argue either side. I agree with most. Not sure I agree with so much pressure on the coach to win. Two of the schools in our county only combine for one win per year. But I see your point. The best programs who are paying their coaches the most $$ expect wins. That’s life. It happened to the college coaches over the last 30 years, and it will happen to the high school coaches at those programs that depend on that $$. How many yrs until the best high school players get “sponsored”? Or do they already?

Any word on a hire?  GQ is unavailable.

Maybe Morgan Shinlever?

I would be surprised if they don't stay inhouse on this one.  

But never say never.  

And remember that it's Knox County.  The hiring rules have definitely changed as of late.

    • 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. 
    • This whole situation is bonkers. You don’t just kick your star player off the team just because you heard them say the F word; the coach definitely had something against the player, or somebody definitely did. Also, nobody has brought up the idea that the school blackmailed the college to get the college to withdraw the scholarship offer, not to mention that the coach who kicked her off is no longer even with the program; they were fired. I think this is a pretty easy lawsuit. I don’t know if she should deserve that much money, but I think she should get enough money for a full-ride scholarship if she cannot get one after this situation.
    • Oh yeah, I’m sure you are different people just always on the same thread for some reason, always agreeing with each other, perhaps just a bunch of dorks who would like to ###### and moan about high school football coaches do a lot of other students, so you make a football team and get a yell at them. When they do something wrong, but I’m sure you don’t like that, do you?   and I’m sure I’m aware of where you get information. A teacher who was on the coaching staff but was fired after the new coaching and staff came in and realized he actually had to start taking his assistant job a little bit more seriously than just wanting to make a little extra cash on the side, hardly even showing up to most practices, should’ve left with his buddy to go to Farragut. I’m sure he could get him a defensive coaching job, but I doubt he will be there in three years. Looking at the way Farragut is currently going.
    • It may be hard to believe but there’s more people than me that think you guys are a bunch of losers.    I’m sure the coaching staff, yourself included, cursed at a bunch of high school students. Nobody could name more than 3 coaches on staff due to the constant turnover. 
    • That's complete BS.  Nobody at ACHS has access to CHS student records unless a transfer is made from CHS to ACHS.
