If they are smart, they will open it up and have a search. See what interest there is out there and not just hire from within.

I think Internal helps for next year. ground work has been laid. 

A couple of ways to look at it:  1.  You look at outside parties if you feel there are not a qualified candidate(s) within your own building.  Ex:  Brentwood Academy, LA & Ensworth all made hires outside their building because they obviously felt they did not have candidate(s) that met their ideal qualifications.    2.  You hire within when you have a qualified candidate(s) that offers unquestioned abilities and a proven track record and you want a smooth transition and possibly keep the current staff on board because of their abilities as well.  Ex:  McCallie hired within because they wanted a smooth transition and Bradford was more than qualified.  It is sometimes easier for Administrators to hire within when the team(s) have a history of success.

This is a good way to look at it.  DCA certainly has a good internal option if needed.  I would think they at least take a look outside, knowing there was a good option on campus, even if it's just short term stop-gap.

Very interesting way to look at it. So, since the end of the season in Nashville, you have BA, BGA, DCA, Ensworth, Goodpasture, and Lipscomb making changes. No one promoted anyone from their Fall 2023 staffs (yet). Teddy Bridgewater will be available after the NFL season presumably  https://sports.yahoo.com/teddy-bridgewater-plans-retire-2023-201653900.html?guccounter=1&guce_referrer=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ29vZ2xlLmNvbS8&guce_referrer_sig=AQAAAJk6az7ref5-O3-cAJK_SSTSHc-cgYK78z_Zs93i4LvngGEutiCnHj_TUmAUVvUmsCG-jiw0LYOAcngek0TNy1HHHwNlP5pdLW1hbLzxJpRqMtQ7-teltU9SMxxiLLzZOqesmfeb9Ws1krHaMkk3l3uTbLhjssXLxk3cKdnapf-5#:~:text=It's always nice to see,Teddy Bridgewater intends to do.

How many coaches you think will apply for a job that this past season had 24 players and 1 was a kicker and at least 6 9th graders that were not even close to being ready to play? It is a good job with great kids. I am not sure that alone will attract many coaches.

    • Deja vu all over again, 7 yrs apart. SMDH Does anybody talk to each other?
    • OK, well, that’s because two quarterbacks can’t start. That’s football 101. The main quarterback won the starting job, so he was on varsity, and the Seymour transfer did not win the starting job. He played some varsity. He was mainly junior varsity, and he balled out when healthy, so for the starting quarterback who’s been starting varsity since his freshman year, if you have any form of proof that he’s gotten worse, somehow, whether that means stats or whatnot, please feel free to share.
    • 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.
