Like I said yesterday, best thing to happen there since Jack Armstrong and Emory Hale. Glad for the fans of Oak Ridge and hope Derek well there as the new coach.

You called it and I have a new respect for you and your sources. I'm totally unfamiliar with Coach Rang except for what I've read, but I hope you're right. RWR!!!

How long does Rang stay at Oak Ridge? 6 weeks or 8 weeks?

Wow, great get. Big question is pretty obvious though - How long will he stay put?

HC Experience

• Powell (2012)
• Dresden (2014-16)
• Gatlinburg Pittman (2017-20)
• Lewis County (2022)

So is he coach the 'ole ball coach' was waiting on? Off with Cummings and now Rang??

Interesting twist is that Rang was Cummings' DC when they were at West.

Or Joe Gaddis. If it wasn't for Oakland and Riverdale, Gaddis might have as many titles as Hale and his winning % is right there with Armstrong. That said, if Rang stays for a long time, home run hire, but he's never been anywhere more than 4 years.

I know you was dying to find out who it was yesterday and I thought you might have knew sweet science personally so I reach out to him so he could contact you and just tell you but he said he didn't know you. There wasn't a hint in the world I could think of without giving it away. All I wanted was for you guys to know you were in good hands.
