They better fly Cael Sanderson in if they want to have a shot at beating Cleveland. 

I wonder if there's any chance Logsdon would come out of retirement? It seems like more and more retired coaches have the itch to get back into it these days. Heath Eslinger?

Plenty of great options. I suspect this will be an extremely highly sought after job. If they keep it in the family, I think the most likely candidates are Bryant Blackmon and Shawn Cordell.

If they expand the search, I would look at giving Greg Foreman a call at Pigeon Forge. With his son being gone now, he might be ready for a change. He would bring a ton of experience and is a proven winner. If you go after one of the up and comers, I think your list has to include Pete Miller at Summit, Ed Holland or Chris Dieben at Baylor, Houston Clements at Signal, and Ulric Winesburgh as Soddy.

Pete Miller has done a great job at Summitt, but I ask the question of why would he leave a great situation at Summitt where he is THE MAN?  If he were at Bradley Central, he would always be 2nd to Cleveland until AJ decides to stop giving big money to the Raiders.

I can guarantee you they wouldn’t bring him either. Blackmon will get the job. How long will it be before he gets them back on track. A few tough years ahead of him since Coach Smith left the program in a bad spot.

How did Smith leave the program in a bad spot?  Did he not wrestle the best kids in the room.

Except for Chad Laxton, Bradley has historically hired from the "Bear Family". If they stay in the family, then I would look at the following.

Bryant Blackman-Current Bradley Assistant

Alan Morris- Current Head Coach of Walker Valley

Heath Eslinger- Founder of "A Better Way" 

Shawn Cordell

Andy Morris- Current Assistant Coach of Walker Valley

Al Morris-Current Athletic Director of Cleveland High School

Adam Rains-Current Assistant Coach of Walker Valley

Tuner Jackson was not a Bradley person when hired.  Basically, 3 coaches since Turner and two were from Bradley.

    • So much talk about an investigation about student record manipulation and then everything has went silent. Has anyone heard how the investigation is going?
    • Basically what you're saying is schools can basically bully students around and get away with it because they are protected. I agree to a certain extent but when schools decisions to keep knuckleheads on staff starts costing kids careers and a college education there is a problem. Our school system last week had a teacher supposedly push a kid and the parents went to the law and the teacher is suspended. So I wouldn't say that they can just do what they want without liability. This case don't pass the smell test because the coach had already been fired before and she got fired after a year on the job. Sounds like the student was right in this case on the outside looking in because the coach gets fired after one year. How many coaches get fired after one year?? Not many. 
    • Problem with DB football goes beyond coaching. Like Waco said. Thr band is the main focus of their community and school. They have the resources to be a championship level team. Guarantee Ballard or Witten could have them nationally relevant at some point but everyone down to peewee would have to buy in and at DB we all know that would never happen. 
    • I know the RB from OR he’s fast and has good hands. Is good on special teams also. Didn’t want to play defense over to the Ridge.
    • Lieutenant Flip flops is on a roll. #1 recruiter in Anderson Co, fo-sho.
