Going to have to change that last sentence. You don't post shots on social media, regardless of whether or not they are valid, and still retain "class". Class moves on to the next phase of their life

Two of last seasons assistant coaches have left. Both would have been good choices to be the next head coach.

Silence!  Could it be that Brentwood Academy has had a change in their philosophy with regards to athletics or have they just not been able to find the right fit?

The right fit was there. He just recently resigned. Must be a change in philosophy.

From what I have observed over the many years of being around private/prep/church related schools is the following:  If the school does not have a supremely strong alumni board of directors that is willing to be HEAVY HANDED with the academic world you will see athletics take a back seat.  An extremely large number of the Headmasters/Presidents/Principals either never participated in high school athletics or they did not participate in football, basketball or baseball.  For whatever reason these individuals that are closely associated with higher education feel that it is impossible to have great academics and great athletics at the same time.  I am of the opinion that a large portion of these individuals were raised in upper middle-class families, and they do not wish to deal with, nor do they understand how to relate to the "blue collar" families or families in the lower socioeconomic classes that it takes to have a really strong athletic program.

That makes sense but I don't think applies in this case. You have a Headmaster who has been there since 2000.  Clearly he understands and knows how the school can balance academics and athletics.  On paper, this looks even more stable than the Lipscomb position long term.  IMO.

I read fb247's post as referring to Brian Lilly.

      West would be a good team to get behind if they can pull it off again like last year. That championship game last year was awesome.

      Where does DCA go?

      By BingoLong · Posted

      I say that because he stepped out of a MUCH better situation on his own than he would see at least his first 3 years at DCA and it would take at least that much to bring him back to coaching. There are other fish in the sea, but again money talks. Need to fix the girls hoops too. Now I'll try again. Who has Pierce locked in for his staff? Hearing a McGavock man but not the Iceman.

      I’ve heard mostly good things from the gridiron. Lots of optimism. It sounds like the portal has mostly helped, though there are a few expected defections. Comeback year!

      Looks like Trent Noah was released from his NLI at South Carolina with intent to pursue playing closer to home. Kentucky and Louisville both reported to be in the mix for him now.
