OFISHBB 10 Report Share Posted March 11, 2005 Does anyone out there have any idea who are when Abingdon or JSB is going to hire a football coach? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RichlandsAlum 678 Report Share Posted March 11, 2005 I think Terry Smith is the obvious choice to head both programs simultaneously in addition to his role at Virginia High. The man is an absolute marvel.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OFISHBB 10 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2005 I say bring back Phill Robbins to JSB and Drnnis Vaught to Abingdon He lives in Abingdon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swvafball 10 Report Share Posted March 11, 2005 yeah-vaught lives in abingdon, and knows a ton of football -but, i did hear that he would NEVER be hired in wash. county - something about "burning your bridges" - but those are just rumors. anyways, good luck to the new coaches of both schools - they will probably need it !!

RichlandsAlum 678 Report Share Posted March 11, 2005 How about Rick Boucher? He lives in Abingdon. Â Better still... How about Boucher takes over the gridiron position at AHS and Dennis Vaught takes over as 9th District Congressman. I'd bet you wouldn't be able to tell a lick of difference. With the Congressional gig, anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OFISHBB 10 Author Report Share Posted March 11, 2005 That is a great choice Slick Rick is in the AHS sports HOF. And DV is in the RHS HOS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wavefan64 10 Report Share Posted March 11, 2005 Heck, I say Terry Smith for all 3 coaching roles, an assistant position at Holston High, and run for congressman, at the same time. The man should be in the National Hall of fame someday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cityofRaven 2,451 Report Share Posted March 12, 2005 its really said though, the RHS hall of shame is bigger than most schools hall of fame. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FatBoy 10 Report Share Posted March 13, 2005 Henderson, who is now living in Abingdon will be the Principal at John Battle next year and will reunite some of the former cult at RHS to coach, namely Brian Johnson, Richie Thomas, Ronnie Davis, and Dennis Palmer to coach the Trojan football team next year!

swvafball 10 Report Share Posted March 13, 2005 on a serious note - jimmy king will be the principal, so he will have a big say in who gets hired - but as for who would apply for that job - i couldn't even guess. the last guy they hired never played football, much less coached football, so anything can happen there. that would be a tough place to coach - i bet battle hasn't won more than 20-25 games in the last 15 years !!

OFISHBB 10 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2005 I hear it might be Mike Locke or Central's old coach John Thompson. But they might wait until they hire a full time principal at both places. wjo is the top 2 or three at Abingdon? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swvafball 10 Report Share Posted March 15, 2005 mike locke and ray gregory are the final 2 - school board will vote on march 21st - also, it is rumored that ahs and jsb will also be hiring new boys basketball coaches for next year - and as far as the full time principals, the interim principals at both schools will be the new principals - perrigan @ ahs, and king @ jsb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OFISHBB 10 Author Report Share Posted March 15, 2005 What about the principals jobs at Holston and PHHS? do you have any insight on those jobs? What about the lady who was the principal at JSB? As for AHS their former Principal is working in the central office. I say that Johnson guy will be the top man at AHS. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swvafball 10 Report Share Posted March 15, 2005 no - johnson will be the man at holston more than likely....i will be shocked if perrigan isn't the principal @ ahs - i think they call it the "good ole boys club" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beamerball 566 Report Share Posted March 20, 2005 I thought this was funny..so I have to post about it. I read on the CD forum that fromer Lee High and current Thomas Walker coach Brian Lee, could be going to John Battle to coach. Anyone heard about this one? His greatest accomplishment that I know of in coaching, is taking a poor performing TW football team and turning them into a halfway decent team, other than that I don't know what JSB would see in him.

OFISHBB 10 Author Report Share Posted March 21, 2005 The word I am getting is Mike Locke is the man at JSB & Richie Hooker is the man at AHS. And all of this could come down tonight at the WCSB meeting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OFISHBB 10 Author Report Share Posted March 22, 2005 Did the school board hire Hooker or Gregory? or did they anyone? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
