S10SQUAREBODY4LIFE Posted April 15 Report Posted April 15 Owens/mullins/Crabtree back in maybe? A familiar face might help the cause. Spurlock was making a little progress, even though it didn't show in the win column. Younger kids coming up have some potential, or had before bball took a couple. Quote
Oopsie Posted April 15 Report Posted April 15 Who would want that mess ? Parent Politics on steroids ! Quote
Vol Hater Posted April 15 Report Posted April 15 Im hearing Luke Owen's coming back with tester. Only rumor as of now Quote
Brs88 Posted April 15 Report Posted April 15 Would be a long shot but I would like to see saunders get the job Quote
Wolf1207 Posted April 15 Report Posted April 15 The first calls should be to the head coaches at Rye Cove and Eastside. Quote

Both seem to be in a good situation at least this season. Now once Eastside finally graduates their 12 19 year olds that will be playing this year that might change Quote

I'd be shocked if he moved. I spoke to a coworker whose son plays at CHS and by listening to what he had to say, I would not be shocked at all if nobody played football next season. Seems the powers that be want CHS to be a basketball school, and they may get their wish. Quote

techfan Posted April 17 Report Posted April 17 Just doing a fairly quick google search looks like he accepted a Georgia job the day after Tazewell announced their new coach then withdrew his name the following day so he must have taken the Central job Quote

The job has to post for 2 weeks before a candidate can be hired. Quote
