Nothing.  Only thing I know is they have interviewed only a handful of coaches and one of them was a current coach/teacher apparently at the school already.  I was told he has almost no experience coaching though but I can't confirm that.  Another I was told was from somewhere else and he has many years experience but I don't know anything about him other than that.

I heard the coach that applied there has had 4 years of high school varsity experience. 1 being at Oakdale, 2 at Stone Memorial, a 4A team that’s won the region 2 times in the last 5 years and this past year at the school.

Well there is also a coach that has 16 years experience and 3 state titles.  He applied for Greenback too which is how I know.

I have yet to get his name.  I know he is from Knoxville.  This information comes from someone within the school.

I’m sure if someone with those credentials wanted the Sunbright job the hire would have been done weeks ago instead of no coach being in place one month before spring ball

Apparently he was told that the teaching spot they would want him is isn't vacant as of yet but is supposed to be.  He coached at Fulton I'm told and I think Anderson County?  I could be wrong about Anderson County.  But he has 16 years experience as an assistant and the 3 championships was at Fulton I would have to guess.

 If this were true and I'm not saying it's not why the dog and pony show ?  Seems like a slam dunk unless it's not.... You can make the announcement the public doesn't need to know the teaching position.

Well if they don't know if a person is or isn't leaving and that might be the only placement they can put a coach then they can't offer a coaching job and expect him to take in on a notion they "hope" it's open for him.  They hire the classroom or job first over the coaching position unless they know they are not giving a teaching position.

    • Yes this process is moving slower than I would have expected
    • also was told coady auston applied, he served as defensive coordinator for greenfield under don pitt several years ago before going to Obion county  
    • TSSAA restrictions for hiring non-faculty coaches have been removed for over a year at this point. In the past a non-faculty person had to be "grandfathered" by being an assistant coach for five years, being fingerprinted, and having a background check run per TSSAA rules... since those were rescinded, the board of directors for the school district are responsible for any/all restrictions on hiring non-faculty personnel. I guess what I'm saying to you is that if you really wanted what you posted, it's already possible as long as your local BOE will allow for it.
    • stop it, rlh. you’re gonna get me all misty eyed and sentimental.    i see seven fairly regularly. ….but slim shady, that’s like spotting bigfoot on main street. you just hope he doesn’t spot you. 
    • Are you trying to say you didn't find Seven and ShadySlim going at it?
