I moved away from Henry Co several years ago but have kept up with the program pretty well. The facts are this. After realignment, they are in a region with Clarksville Northeast, Clarksville Northwest, Kenwood, Kirkwood, and Dickson County. Nothing against any of those schools, but that's basically a guaranteed region championship for Henry County every year. And their main obstacle from region 8 just moved up to 6A. Nothing is a sure thing, but that's a fairly straightforward path to the semifinals. They have a student body of 1300+ so their general talent level is a lot more consistent than the smaller schools that are more typical of West TN. Not to mention their community support is among the best in the state. 1A-3A is also a bloodbath in West TN. Outside of Shelby County, Henry County is absolutely one of the top one or two jobs in West TN. I can't imagine having to teach (probably PE or Wellness? Give me a break) will deter many applicants. -
Man we have seen very crazy things happen in West TN over the years at basketball games. Emotions fly high, but usually everybody kinda forgets what happens during games if it is not a shooting. -
There are weird people in every aspect of wrestling and that’s what makes it a great sport! As far as schools/coaches not wanting to compete against other schools unless the chances of winning (home gym, coach picks the official, the competition date is perfect for school/coaches X). When carefully examining the situation so many coaches/schools have lost sight of the big picture and that is to teach student athletes that the most important goal is not winning a championship but too continue fighting and trying to reach your goals when things don’t go your way. -

His infatuation with Baylor is just plain weird. -

Okay, I'm going to go down the list. Comer left McKenzie to go to Milan, got a big pay raise, and if it does teach at Milan, it's a small/light course. He made it to Chattanooga. Why leave? Hodge: I don't know Hodge compared to the others, but why leave McKenzie (unless for money)? They're a 1A school with MASE going to 2A. They were leading MASE big time in the semifinal game. They could've/should've been state champions. Ward: If Ward wants in on that job, I think Crockett County will be glad to pay for the real estate fees. Puckett: I don't know what to make of Puckett. Is he a good coach? I believe so, but I also think he has a lot of pressure in 2025 to do well. I would love for him to stay. I know he could be the one to leave of the list you gave me. But he hasn't been at Haywood very long either. Jacobs: Unless he wants a new challenge, it'll be a mistake for him to leave. I think the future for Peabody is in better hands than people may think. I think USJ is the best job. They're going back down to D2-A level. The region won't be as strong, they should do well in the playoffs. Facilities are top notch, and it pays well. I think Milan could be the job in D-1, my opinion. I know Henry County is a good job, but it's tough to say it's the "best job" when they're in a tough spot geography wise, may not be the best team in that region/that side of 5A, and they're telling the new coach that he is going to teach, which is something coaches don't want to do nowadays.
