Perry County Boy’s has an opening. They have lots of young talent in Kenner Haston-going into Soph. year(son of Kirk Haston), Colton Pevahouse-Jr, Landon Warren-Soph, Jake Mercer-Jr. Also Haston’s younger son will be an 8th grader this year who will be good. 
Lots of talent just lacked coaching this year.

Larry Helton is a good basketball coach. Lots of talent for sure, but youth still has to get experience and grit that only comes through being worked through the fire of playing games. This team will undoubtedly have a window of 4-5 years where the expectation should be state tournament but it's tough to do with Freshmen and Sophomores. I am interested to see who takes this job. There will be pressure to succeed immediately.

Very questionable coaching from him this year. It looked like he was in over his head. Between the lack of offensive sets and the lack of pre game preparation I would say it was time for him to go. 
With that being said, this should be a highly desirable job.

I agree, great opportunity for somebody to step in and have immediate success. I am very interested to see who comes in. I've heard rumblings that the coaching move was made with a specific target in mind. Haven't heard who, but if they don't land their first choice, I would like to see the names that apply.

At the girls state tournament last week it was being told that Greg Tipps was going to take that job if he was allowed to coach both boys and girls there at Perry Co.

Seems like he has a good thing at Loretto. Why leave?

Think this sets up for the return of the Hoosier.

You called it. Kirk Haston is returning to the sideline. Pretty cool story when you think about him coaching his sons in the future. That team has a great chance to be a state contender here soon.

    • Dyersburg is going to be good, really good. As mentioned, they have a lot of talent on the way and the trio of Chelby, Joya, and KayKay will only be better with a full season together under their belt. To me, playing in Murfreesboro two consecutive postseasons will only serve to make them more dangerous if/when they stand among the final eight teams this March. Experience, good or bad, always makes you better. And not only do they have experience, they know how to win there. Schedules are coming together for all of the teams and I am excited about what I am seeing on the preliminary drafts on Dyersburg’s schedule. I know I am being a tease, but it’s simply not my place to announce what another school is doing. With that said, I won’t go into specifics. However, I am excited about renewed home and away contracts for the non-district portion of the calendar. I think west Tennessee will have a lot of interest as well.
    • What does everyone have in the final 8? In no particular order. 1. Eagleville 2. Gordonsville 3. Greenback 4. Oakdale 5. South Pitt/ East Robertson-- not sure 6. Richland 7. Halls 8. Union City
    • They struggled to field a team last year. I don’t see them being much better?
    • sx good two know thay didun't waint that entarr citty two see yeller/red......
    • Couldn’t agree more.. Tate is a special kinda player , but fortunately for us we get a best of 3 series. I think our pitching is better than last year when we made the trip to west tn. Should be a fun 2 or 3 games.
