No need for interviews they already know who’s going to be the HC , they just want someone to fill the position win or lose ! 

I think legally they have to post the job and do interviews even if they know which of the applicants they want to fill the position.

Not sure of the reliable source, but I heard, that someone heard, that someone told sombody who heard it from a close friend, who was told by a reliable source that the announcement would happen before Christmas break.  No mention of who would be announcing or what year it woud be announced, but it's going to be announced.

Not related to Richlands new head coach but head coach nonetheless in our area.

 

“Introducing Mount View High School’s new head coach for your Golden Knights football program. William King. King who played Quarterback in high school helped lead two teams to a AAA State Championship. One his Jr year at Charleston High. Then his Senior year at Capitol High. Then he went on to play at Marshall University. Where he is one of the most decorated defensive players in Marshall football history. He helped them in 1992 to a Division 1-AA National Championship. He was a Consensus All-American. He was named Southern Conference Defensive Player of the Year in 1993. As a senior , he totaled up 178 tackles which is still second highest in program history. He finished his distinguished career with a total of 443 tackles putting  him at 4th all time in Marshall’s history. In 2012 , he was inducted into the Marshall Athletic Hall of Fame.”

The real question is will all those accolades be enough to keep their players from coming across the state line? Asking for a friend. Haha

With Thorton at the helm, at least Richlands will still be "slinging" it around the yard.

They'd be "killin'" it out there.

One downside: every pregame meal would consist of mustard and biscuits, potted meat, and french fried taters.

Heard it from a friend who
Heard it from a friend who
Heard it from another you been messin' around
They say you got a boyfriend
You're out late every weekend
They're talkin' about you and it's bringin' me down
 
But I know the neighborhood
And talk is cheaper when the story is good
And the tales grow taller on down the line
But I'm telling you, babe
That I don't think it's true, babe
And even if it is, keep this in mind
 
You take it on the run, baby
If that's the way you want it, baby
Then I don't want you around
I don't believe it
Not for a minute
You're under the gun
So you take it on the run

I'm hearing rumors that, in an unprecedented act of revenge, Richlands has pulled off the unthinkable and hired Stephen Maganbauer as the ultimate "eff you" to Salem.

UPDATE: The Maganbauer hire hit a snag after this man was spotted lurking around the equipment room at Ernie Hicks.

TCSB is waiting until the Alabama wins the championship to contact one of Saban's assistants to offer the HC position, and why not, all other college teams seem to gather up his assistants, Kirby Smart and Lane Kiffen, for example.  Might be a good move!

With all this speculation and prognostication that has been posted on here for about a month, give or take. Common Sense would be that they have a name for the next School Board Meeting so they can vote on and hire before the next semester of school which would start in January. As for Common Sense, The Mayor of the Trailer Park would be the best as to enlighten us on the Levels and Degrees of Common Sense in Tazewell County on such matters.  Then again, whoever they hire may not be able to come until May or June.

Grundy wrestling is the only one that can pull a move like that off.

Once again it's only a rumor but only Five applicants, Mike Compton, and Ronnie Davis are the two leading applicants according to what I have heard.  A John Battle assistant, and a former player with Emory connections are also being considered, along with a Richlands assistant, but Compton and Davis are leading with Davis being the most favorable with the TCSB according to the rumor mill.  

The next question with Davis would be, How long will he stay, brfore jumping ship?  With Compton, how will the situation at UVA Wise affect his decision?

Former player with Emory Ties.....Thad Wells fits that bill lol

Also: Cain Ringstaff, Caleb Jennings, Jeremy Keene, Josh Keene, I'm sure their are others but those just came to my head.

Lakeway ChristianAcademy, has an amazing campus, with super athletic facilities, and close to Douglas Lake. I stopped by, from my visit to Knoxville. I don't think Coach Wells, would trade that to the Blue Tornado facilities.
