Sequatchie Posted December 9, 2004 Report Share Posted December 9, 2004 According to the sports reports on the tv stations in Chattanooga tonight, John Allen will be named as the Bradley Bears new head football coach on Thursday. John Allen took over a floundering football program at Lakeview-Fort Oglethorpe High School in 2000. His first team went 3-7. The next four Warriors teams won 38 games, while losing only 9. All 4 of those teams went to the playoffs. The Warriors went 12-1 this past season... their only loss coming in the second round of the playoffs. When the season ended, Allen handed in his resignation, saying, essentially, my work here is done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm amazed he would do it when he turned down a chance at another 5A school last year in TN. Bradley will be a challenge for Coach Allen, maybe bigger than LFO was. Good luck to him and his family!

wingman10 Posted December 9, 2004 Report Share Posted December 9, 2004 I thought he would come back to Tn, I just didn't think he would be at Bradley. It will be a challenge. Good luck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
makearun Posted December 9, 2004 Report Share Posted December 9, 2004 I heard he was being paid 80,000 plus a new chevy suburban. He teaches two classes, then is out fundraising for athletics the rest of the day. Looks like Bradley really wants to turn the program around.

Coach Allen was introduced at a 9:00 a.m. press conference this morning at Bradley Central. And, for the record, he is getting no where near 80,000 for the job.

That is also the word around Cleveland this morning. Not starting a problem. Just telling what I am hearing. From a pretty reliable source. Go brush your teeth!!

eagleRC Posted December 9, 2004 Report Share Posted December 9, 2004 They way i read it was that Allen and his assistants will make 82,000 a year combined. I don't think that Allen himself is making 82,000 a year but i could be reading it wrong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No matter what this web-site or any other web-site may say. It's just a fact, period. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
