No idea who'll they get, both girls and boys programs are struggling this year. 

it is a shame when both were on the rise.  I knew my rebelettes would struggle this year but we will be ok going into the next few years.  tullahoma had some years there in the nineties where they didn’t win but one or two games a year and were pitiful.  boys were not much better, so it is hard when you run good coaches off from that.  I hope we keep coach holt and ag around for a long time.

Franklin County has hired some good coaches in Basketball, and Football, I hope they will be patient with them.  I thought they didn't give coach Mac McCurry enough time, but I think Coach Cunningham will do a good job in Football.

Coffee County will probably win there district, but will probably have to face Blackman in the regionals. Warren County is pretty good, and its a shame how far Shelbyville has fallen since Insell left.

I guess I'm old school, but I liked the old 8AAA. 

i was unaware that is the district that our district matched up with in basketball still.  I had hoped we would go somewhere west and have a chance. The old district 8 was a lot of fun and easy to traverse for this old lady that is for sure and great competition over the years.

Insell wouldn't have won either if he had only local kids. Seems llke he had a losing season until he went out and got Grundy's best player. Recruiting wars are now in Rutherford County. Notice the fall of Riverdale.

I agree with you 100%,.  This has gone on  in basketball, and football for years, in Tennessee, and the TSSAA looks the other way.

what a shame it is and now webb has entered and started to take girls from this area as well as young men with offers of professional ball. this has to stop or the integrity of the game will just not be upheld

the front runner right now is a woman in Manchester who runs a travel ball program and would get some players from surrounding areas.  other applicants i have been told by people here in town are the former middle school boys coach who use to be a high school and college coach, the old Columbia Central girls coach, a franklin county current assistant coach, and a coffee county current assistant coach.  was also told the principal would make the hire not the athletic director

It will be interesting to see who they get. The job hasn't been posted as yet.

this is all coming as secondary sources and nothing is ever official. Principal Joey was also said to have told parents in a meeting to call aau coaches and have them apply and ask the parents who they would like as the next coach.  i am no principal and certainly have never worked in a school environment but I would venture you do not want to go down that avenue when searching for a coach.  parents are part of. the reason you are in the mess you are in, why involve them unless you feel your job is at jeopardy

Don't look for the TSSAA to do a thing about it.  They have created an unlevel playing field in football and basketball.  

Which is sad because 3A Football has become “Whoever loses to Alcoa”. It started with Private Schools and Public schools had to start recruiting to keep up.

It is sad, and seems to be getting worse every year.  The TSSAA needs to step in and do something, but we all know they won't.  And they have really screwed the reclassifications up, you have some 4 team regions, then you have 9 team regions. Schools in regions with teams over 100 miles away, a real mess.

why is franklin county in a four team district?

There was a couple of Basketball districts with 4 teams and 1 with 16 teams in Single A until recently. A team had to forfeit a Regional Tournament game because they didn’t have 5 players and only 4 teams in the district. I am hoping the TSSAA cuts football back to 4 Classifications with districts like Basketball. Recruiting needs to be addressed and players playing out of zone or transferring  should be ineligible for 2 years not 1.

so if I read the standings correctly Tullahoma lost bad to page tonight and looks like there will be a three way tie possibly if Lawrence County wins on Thursday and Lincoln County beats Tullahoma again on Thursday.  What would the tie breaker be for the 2nd place finisher.  Looking at it Lincoln County would of beat Tullahoma twice and Lawrence would of beat Lincoln County twice.  Tullahoma has beat Lawrence County twice.  All have lost bad to page

does anyone know the standings for this district tournament or when and where it is being played?  i think I read where games were at Lawrence county already but do all the games get played there because I think it could be a good semifinal with girls and boys outside of page girls who should dominate the girls side.  does this district go to Murfreesboro or to East Tennessee and play?

    • 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.  
    • Trez's last scandal has died down, so I guess this is there opportunity to be the best 4A team playing in 2A a la Sissy MTN.  At least they won't be in a Z-district with 1a teams in the regular season.
