From what I heard he would’ve taken the job years ago, but they went in another direction. Of course, the situation with the administration might be different now, plus I don’t know how it would effect him drawing his retirement.

Honestly, you could have said that about alot of places when Rankin was at Riverdale

I was in high school that year and I remember seeing him at the school. Still baffles me that he wasn’t offered the job.  We made a hire that set us back even more. Ron Crawford was a good hire and he had some success here( semi finals in 2014). Scott Cummings seemed like a home run hire at the time, but it just didn’t work out. This is a brand new administration(Principal and AD), so we’ll see what happens.

I always put my money on the barber shop. Anytime you need the real scoop just drop by for a good haircut and the football advise is free.

There are two people I would reach out to. 

 

1. Chris Brown- DC at Baylor. Doubt he leaves Baylor but he was at Cleveland before and kids loved him. Seems like a great guy.

2. Maybe a stretch right now but Matt Moody. Local guy, young, energetic, would think this would be a job he would want to stay at for a long time. Has had some decent success at McMinn Central. 

 

I am sure there are others I am missing as I am not a football guy but those are the two outside of the program I would give a look at.

With the new law that allows TN teachers to come out of retirement and draw a new salary and keep most of their retirement intact due to teacher shortage kind of changes things for older, retired teacher/coaches.  something to consider.

CGR won’t be going there to teach, kids. 
He will work a 100 day contract and not teach a single class, just like he did at Alcoee.

OK thanks. Every state is different. I have a good friend here in Georgia who retired with 38 years, and came back full time the very next year. He told me he was really rolling in the dough. Georgia closed that loophole a couple of years later and he had to cut back to part time. Unless it has changed, you can retire at 25 years in Alabama. But, you can’t come back unless it’s at a private or in another state. If you do, you forfeit the right to draw your retirement for 7 years.

The last 4 Cleveland hires had coached in Game 15 and 3 of them had won it. Don’t know if that’s a prerequisite or a coincidence.
