Not for long….

When are interviews for East?  Being the first Metro school to get field turf may attract a quality coach/staff. Hope the Principal will allow the HC to bring in teachers/coaches inside the building to build repour with the kids. If she doesn't, the coach will get fed up and leave at the first opportunity. Many of these Principals simply don't get it and expect the HC to produce miracles. Makes what Stewart did there even more impressive.

That I’m not 100% sure when. I just know a few people have put their names in. Also as far as turf they’re doing three schools at a time. Starting with the most used fields. I was naïve to the fact that most of the metro coaches are not in the buildings. I was only assuming since most of our coaches are.

It is becoming less and less common. These principals would rather have a numeracy coach, a literay coach, and a few more positions that do VERY little work yet take up a budget position. MOst metro head coaches are lucky to have 3 coaches in the building. East doesn't even have one basketball coach that teaches there. Can't keep that up for long.

Some of these names that have submitted applications would surprise people. There are some good outside names in the hat including some very close to the program currently. I am Captain Guru and I approve this message.

Do you think the hire will happen prior to spring ball?

Not having coaches in the building is ridiculous. That shows a lack of support . They help facilitate the school .Cane Ridge principal gets it . East new principal came from a elementary school so I'm not shocked with her lack of support. Stewart leaving was a big loss for the program. How do you even let that happen?

East Nashville's principal has been at East in the past. She also has an AP, Olige, that has been at the hs level for several years. This is a metro problem. JS should know this better than anyone. For a few years he was a teacher at Overton while he coached at Hillsboro. 

Easy fix, coach where you teach. If you don't have enough teaching spots available, reach out to your feeder schools for positions.

    • They’ve both gotten worse. I’ve seen enough games to know that. 
    • The only two transfers that Bearden has gotten that went on to play college football were a defensive back from Karnes, who transferred here way before the new coaching staff got here, and a running back from Carter, who went on to play at Maryville College. Both players received those offers while at Bearden, and both players got a diploma from Bearden High School. Therefore, they are Bearden kids, and you can’t do anything about that.   The transfer from Seymour didn’t win the job, what do you expect two quarterbacks to start at the same time? He played great on JV when he could stay healthy, and when he came in on varsity, he did great. The quarterback position is definitely going to be in good hands when the current starting quarterback leaves, but until then, they’re just going to be battling it out like every good quarterback competition does. The current starting quarterback has his flaws, and that is in the pass game, but what he doesn’t have flaws is running and scrambling, and if you go back and watch any game, which I’m sure you didn’t watch any, we used him very often, and when we needed a deep ball, we brought in the transfer from Seymour. The starting quarterback last year will be a senior this year, and the Seymour transfer will be a junior, so the Seymour transfer is definitely going to get his spotlight. He may even win the job this year. Football isn’t about who the newspaper thinks is the best kid. The best kid in the position will win the starting job, and I trust the coaching staff more than a newspaper or article to pick my starting QB.
    • I mean, we’ve only gotten two transfers that went on to play college football, one who went to UT Martin came his second semester junior year before the new coaching staff was here, and the other one went on to play at Maryville College, in which I don’t believe he had any interest prior to transferring.
    • An FYI: To see how an opponent has done against another opponent since 2001- go to the game by clicking on one of the teams. Click the G beside the game. For example, Milan: The info will show you the previous matchups and other info.
    • All these college signees went yo other schools for 3 years, were getting college offers then transferred to Bearden. It’s not like this staff did much to develop them.    The BBall coaches son and the Seymour transfer were some of the most talented QBs in the region, and you guys developed them into QBs who might complete one pass a game.
