Lake County head coaching job open?


Recommended Posts

No it’s really not … y’all are holding your feelings and relationships with these coaches in regards to what is actually reality . Just my opinion though, high school football IS a million dollar business although these coaches may be people and just getting paid pennies on the dollar, they are public employees and sign off on the possibility of their name being leaked the very second they apply to a public position and they know that . If it’s unethical , why have a forum here ? Most of us are fans and supporters or boosters of our teams , not journalists. What’s said on here isn’t gospel or posted in a newspaper. Some of you need to learn what an online forum is … it’s not a bible . I will work on my empathy skills I guess .

You are comparing the Lake County Football coaching search to ESPN?

And yes, it is highly unethical.

Ok I'll bite and put in my two cents. If a coach doesn't want their name put out that they're applying for another job, dont apply for the job. You're a football coach in the South. Basically a public figure. I don't see why one would apply for a job in secret unless they're trying to keep players at school A because you're not sure about school B. A la having your cake and eating it too

Different perspective. Behind every coach is a human being. Sometimes people have to make difficult choices in life knowing that their decision will make a profound impact in the lives of others. Say a coach is interested in being closer to family, but their name is leaked and they do not get the job. Not only do they have the potential embarrassment of not getting the job, you put their players and colleagues through unnecessary stress. 

Let's put it in a different perspective since Lake County Football has apparently joined the echelon of NFL Live. What if expecting parents were waiting to reveal gender and a physician went out and told everyone before they had the opportunity? I am assuming most in here would think that would be appropriate.

It’s humorous how you make fun of my comparison of high school sports to actual sports and here you are comparing it to an ultrasound room or Osha violation .

Those are incomparable circumstances in my opinion but I get where you're coming from. I just disagree, respectfully. The way I see it..  If you're paid with public dollars, then you can't get sore when the public has an interest in where their money is going. Not even considering a players and parents vested interest in the situation.

    • Im asking everyone to keep roy whited and his family in your prayers. Coach whited won back to back state championships at white county in 98-99. He is very well liked and respected in this area. For those of you that dont know he went missing 3 days ago. No one knows where he is. His truck was found in a rural part of the county. Thanks again. We are all very concerned. 
    • West would be a good team to get behind if they can pull it off again like last year. That championship game last year was awesome. 
    • I say that because he stepped out of a MUCH better situation on his own than he would see at least his first 3 years at DCA and it would take at least that much to bring him back to coaching. There are other fish in the sea, but again money talks. Need to fix the girls hoops too. Now I'll try again. Who has Pierce locked in for his staff? Hearing a McGavock man but not the Iceman.
    • I’ve heard mostly good things from the gridiron. Lots of optimism. It sounds like the portal has mostly helped, though there are a few expected defections. Comeback year!
    • Rudesell 1 year at Crockett. Coach Tate 2 weeks a Bradford. South Gibson supposedly going with jcs middle school coach. Which isn’t who I thought would get it, I know the top 2 was between him and Obion girls head coach.
