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.

Rankin applied for the job twice but Mullins and the powers that be didn't hire him. Which was a huge mistake.

But there's a whole lot more to this situation than it seems. Cummings did some things bad and the administration did the right thing from what I heard. But he going to be allowed to keep his job as a teacher for the time being anyway.

Not trying to start a beef but that to me is a cheap shot Barney. "Romeo" is used by a troll from Clinton, our rival. You sure are fired up about this but I do love your appreciation for Oak Ridge football. I like Maryville football because they have a winning tradition. Like I said not trying to start a beef with you.

No problem Willie, just mad about the situation but you would think if there were issues Gaddis should of said something way ahead of time before it came to this. I do know Heritage ask their coach to be more aware of what he was saying to the players instead of taking the measures OR did.

How do you know there had not been warnings?

I understand we are all going through the Five Stages of Losing a Football Coach which include denial, anger, revenge and finally acceptance.

Let's just keep in mind we have to do what is best for the players first. The players are watching how we react, what we say and what we do.

Good thing is kids are stronger than we think. They will in the end take the field next August and make us proud to be members of the Wildcat Family  Universe.

Wildcat Family Universe...W F U.  That is funny. I didn't even try to come up with those initials. I am a bad Wildcat,

I don't know but I do know in coaching land out there OR has a big black eye right now and I bet their not a place many good coaches would touch with a ten foot pole right now until what happen surfaces. Shouldn't have let your defensive coach leave for HVA.

How about former Greeneville head coach Caine Ballard

It would be tough to get Ballard away from the Greeneville area.  He owns a huge farm and doing very well in Real Estate. (Always welcome to come and do any football related activities with the team). Oak Ridge wouldn’t like how much he demands from his athletes if they got rid of Cummings for yelling and cussing like most people think.

Who do you want to be the new coach everybody?

How about the Betsy coach Witten?

Greeneville Coach?

Campbell County brothers?

Anderson County?

Rankin?

Raid a Private school for a coach?

Gary Rankin would be great, but don’t know if he would leave Boyd to come back up to Knox area again. Campbell Co Price bros would be solid, safe hire.

There is not one single player that cares how you react.

We have a coach that is more worried about what I post on the T than he is about his weak offense. He should worry about the fact that his OC can’t teach the forward pass. Ol insurance agent is running that 3 and out offense he ran at Kodak, yet the HC is worried about ol Murph expressing an opinion. You people in the secret city can have him.  Romeo hires an HC with experience and he brings the WB whisperer with him. Then Dolly and Austin can go hire a coach that knows fundamental football. Sounds like a win win to me.

      $750,000 Lawsuit Files Against Warren County School District

      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.

      $750,000 Lawsuit Files Against Warren County School District

      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.
