They should hire a former NFL QB seems like that is what all the private schools over there doing 

Add mediocre in front of NFL. Neither was very good. Trent has a ring.... well that because of Ray and the defense and Jamal Lewis.

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 would say Dennis has a great plan.   Wade hire was great last time.  @BigENS - who is on your list?

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.

Not many of those. You have any names?

[FBI]

2 choices on staff: Brian Beaubien and John Carey

Names to consider: Duane Lowe (Friendship), Shaun Caven (Friendship), Trey Perry, Paul Pitts (Gallatin)

Names outside the box (all fired from Tenn Tech): Dewayne Alexander, Bruce Hatfield, Wesley Satterfield

If I had to choose one guy to ignite what is there, it would be David Pack.    Outside the box, second chance hire - but DCA can be a major factor quickly.
