I don't have any displeasure with this person at all. He is a good coach and better than his record but his main failure was PR skills which just sending in a questionair with a self stamped envelope was just to much for this man to do which is a sign of his personality as a whole. I know someone who lived in his neighborhood that had four boys that played high school football and they would pass just walking on the street and he wouldn't even acknowledge him after speaking. My old coach would have stopped and not only talked to this person but before you know it those four boy's would have been going to Maryville just because he made that parent feel extra special. PR skills are a must in winning high school football believe it or not. Look at Josh Jones at Bearden how much interest he has brought to that program over good PR skills that attract kids and their families. Please don't let my opinion and overall insight rub you the wrong way but I was just using him as an example even though he isn't coaching now. There is one place knowing him well as I do that he would have been the perfect fit at and that was where he played high school football and that job was available this past winter but I guess he didn't apply. Wish that he had of.

His cousin wasn’t much on pr either, but he beat the evensville-dayton-spring city-graysville unified senior high like a red headed step child.

Which inner-city schools are you referencing? When I think of inner-city schools in tennessse I think of sneedeville and sunset gap. 

I mainly bought Mr. Fair’s book in the 90’s and early 2000’s. You could be sure that 100% of the Memphis schools, downtown Chattanooga schools and 90 plus % of Metro Nashville schools would read “Survey Not Returned.”

    • And can you tell me who those two quarterbacks were, and every kid that was put into college from Bearden is a Bearden kid? It’s kind of why they graduated from Bearden.   and I would definitely not consider ETSU “waste”…
    • Most of this is complete gibberish. But the one part I could decipher is putting kids in college. This coaching staff hasn’t put a single Bearden kid in college. They completed wasted one of the best WRs in East TN and have ruined two talented QBs. All because they’re in over their heads. 
    • Well, I’d hope the new coaching staff thinks they are all that because they can always walk around the school, anytime they want, thinking that, especially for what they’ve done for the student athletes and the players, putting more kids in college in his first season than the old coaching staff did in numerous years combined, but we will just sweep over that because I know you don’t like facts. But trust me, nobody wanted Mr. Big britches, made the star player switch to quarterback, which is ultimately the reason he ended up transferring to play the position. He loved, but unfortunately, had to be at another school because Mr. Big Britches doesn’t like when a teenager knows more than him, but can’t expect much coming from a guy who used all class throwing pencils up into the ceiling and making fun of football kids who were failing class right to their face, and in front of numerous students, even projecting on the board most of the time.
    • After that first paragraph, I can see why you’re a TA and not a teacher. Have you made the move from South Knoxville to Bearden yet?    Maybe he left because he is an actual teacher and coach, and didn’t want to be associated with a group of foul mouthed middle school coaches who like to pretend they’re big time. 
    • Yeah and the coach is gone. Whole bizarre situation here. We played them a couple of times at MTSU last few years. She was a player for sure.
