Bingo. Me and a gentleman from Georgia had a spirited debate about this a year ago. He stated that he had rather be a HC at “Ten-Buck-Two” than a coordinator elsewhere. I disagreed, saying if the money was close I had soon be a coordinator. What people who haven’t been in the business don’t realize is as a HC you spend 20% of your time on football and 80% of your time on other junk. This is especially true at larger schools. You are responsible for every single detail, every single week. It gets old in a hurry. 

But if you're at a big enough school you can designated one of your assistants to handle some of that stuff. I've known of that to happen, some guys just like keeping up with all the details.

Sorry, I wasn't clear.  I  meant that  Oak Ridge's, Maryville's & Alcoa's starting salaries are the highest among all TN public schools.  And the good point was made by osunut2 about higher degrees getting rewarded with higher salaries.

OR is 43 same as knox.  I went and looked just now best I can tell it's the same as knox.  Maryville and ALCOA are higher, but that's hardly the conversation here.

You are way too invested in this to not have some deep connection.You love to hate on Oak Ridge but are really tore up about this for some reason.

yeah.  no school shoud treat somebody that way for a reason they can't make public.  As far as I'm concerned, if you can't make it public, it's not a valid reason.  every other situation I've seen, both public and private, when a coach was abruptly fired it was real clear why in the press and everything.  contrary here, it wasn't clear, and the coach came out with statement that made it clear he felt wronged.  That don't strike you as odd?

And you’re still here some 4 odd weeks later asking the same question. I agree, you seem way too invested in it all, to be just mere coincidence, being on OR threads all day every day. It doesn’t really bother me, honestly, although I do find it odd. And you’ve always seemed to kinda have a vendetta against OR, even before this. I’ve noticed you’ve had a few disputes with some of our fans on here. Can we let it go, please? You aren’t going to find the answer you’re looking for on here. I’m not even saying I don’t agree with you, but it’s just pointless to keep bringing it back up @ this point. Call the school if you’re that concerned about it. Call Coach Gaddis, he’s not too hard to find at the school, I wouldn’t think? Give ‘em a buzz.

I don't need to call anyone.  I live in Roane county.  Why would they care what I have to say?  I'm just saying, Since i've moved to the Knoxville area i've seen several coaches let go with little warning.  Catholic, and both carter guys come to mind.  No one ever made a secret why.  Maybe it's just the secret city way, but as an outsider, it's weird.

We’re all aware you feel that way, brother. TRUST me on this.

isn't that what these boards are for?  I'm not antigonising you or anything.  It's a thread on a public forum.  I'm still interested to see the new coach, and I'll still pull for OR and all the area schools to be successful.  Knoxville has some of the most consistent programs in the southeast.  OR has great history.  I don't cheer against programs like that, but I can still say when I think something was sketchy right?

Absolutely, and like I said, I’m not even saying I disagree with you. It’s just pointless to me to keep bringing it back up, because obviously the answer you’re looking for isn’t going to be revealed here. All I’m saying. It just is what it is. I don’t mind anyone being on our threads. I’m nobody to tell anyone any different.

okay.  I hear you.  And I wasn't totally clear that some of y'all weren't concerned to.

Look Guys it's a privacy issue on one side and a policy issue on the other. I didn't think I would have to say this but if you were relieved of your job duties at work would you want the whole world knowing the details?  I think not, let it go if someone wants to give specifics at a later date so be it. Quit asking you ain't gonna get a answer. PaPa Bounder has spoken!

That being said.  I'm going on a 2 week cruise today so you all will have to help find a new coach. Get R Done!

      $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.

      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.
