But on the other side of that coin, the current principal wasn't in place when Miner was on staff, so there is no tie there.  And while I know that he has a tie with the current AD, the hire is ultimately made by the principal.  

I'll bet you're right about that

Statement from Coach Cummings:

That is the details, yelling at kids and cussing on the field.  Gasp!  Wow.  Just ridiculous and pathetic.   Well, totally sucks for the kids having to go through a whole new hire.

I really don’t have an opinion as far as that goes. That’s me being completely honest with you. 

I said this earlier and I'll say it again...while I don't expect to get a real answer, If "Joe" is at West tonight, I'll track him down and ask him who the frontrunner is, who has applied, who will be interviewed, when interviews begin, when a hire will be made, and who's on the committee. I doubt I'll get a single answer to any of those questions, but you never know unless you ask!

He’ll be there tonight but you won’t get the answers to those questions but I’m sure he’d love to hear your opinions on the subject. I directed at least 8 people on Saturday to him. For anybody who knows him, he’s very approachable and I’m sure he’d love to speak to you. Tell him Little brother sent you.

You’re absolutely right about that, but my gut feeling is it will be JM. And although Gaddis is just the AD, I feel he has a lot of sway when it comes to the OR football program, for obvious reasons. I may end up being completely wrong, we’ll see.

 may be wrong but I can't imagine them bettering themselves who ever they hire after this fiasco. Oak Ridge definitely isn't the proud program it once was and it seems like a certain group there seem to 

I don't mind if you post on Oak Ridge. You seem fair in your opinions but you went too far with the

"Oak Ridge definitely isn't the PROUD program it once was..."

I can't speak for other Oak Ridge but I still am a supporter of a very proud program. There have been some probrems the last two seasons but we were in the State Championship game three years ago.

Barney peace and good luck to the Maryville programs.

You force out two coaches in a row... things aren't the way they were.

      $750,000 Lawsuit Files Against Warren County School District

      By pioneer42 · Posted

      Won't happen. College coaches will back the coach every time and it cost this young lady her senior season. Looks like the player may be right on this one. School let her  go after one season. This stuff happens more than you think.

      “No college is going to offer a scholarship to a player that is kicked off of the team.” For language? I’m not seeing that as a dealbreaker.

      Why did the coach get rehired after she was let go as an assistant by the former Warren County coach and the current AD?? Is that accurate?? I am very familiar with situations like this. Suprised lawsuits haven't happend before. If the coach unfairly let the player go, I think she has a shot because it cost her a scholarship. No college is going to offer a scholarship to a player that is kicked off of the team. Not going to happen. There are bad hires like this a bunch and kids are treated unfairly by coaches that can't coach a lick and have super long ropes somehow. Amazing how some of these coaches get hired and keep their job.

      I am going to assume you are not a lawyer, and most reasonable lawyers would not say the lawsuit has a zero percent chance in court. I agree with you that a coach has the ability to dismiss anyone from a team. However, Ms. Winfree was never presented with the opportunity to present her witnesses and have them tell the coaches and administrators what they heard. A lawyer could better explain the lawsuit and the grounds to you. Before you start making wild assumptions about the lawsuit, would it be too much to ask that you do a little legal research first? The lawsuit is dealing with due process, loss of property, and defamation.   You can read the lawsuit here: https://bdnewsletter.files.wordpress.com/2024/04/doc-1-complaint-filed-4-18-2024.pdf

      The administration took the path of backing the coach and whispering to people that the kid was a problem. The reality is that the kid was never a problem on a team or classroom. The player says she has witnessed who back her not saying the f-word.  Why did the coach make that story up and other stories? I am not Sigmund Freud and do not have an answer for the ex=-coach's behavior..
