Of course not unless you know somebody whoâs top notch and a Siler cronie. Lawson isnât gonna let anyone have full control look what happened with Frazier...

He shouldn't be, the guy has done a good job at Whitley. If one average season gets you out at a rural county school it just shows how bad things are at that school and there is no reasonable coach without political connections there that would want that job in that situation. Whitley was literally a couple points away from a district championship this year. What are the reasonable expectations there?
Pulaski struggled last year, should Hines have been let go? Haddix had a big 4 win season at Perry once upon a time, why would Corbin have hired such a coach? Average/bad seasons happen, it's high school football and usually those seasons have a lot more factors than just who is coaching.

I know something, it involved three meetings week before last and then a final meeting at The Cumberlands Chic-Fil-a. Wait till next Monday for it to become official.

Itâs not Chappel fault, its who they make him surround himself with. The new guy will not be a yes man, and I think he will be givin full control or else he would have taken the other job he was interviewing for.

Care to drop a hint? Or is this all just speculation at this point?

I wish Chappell nothing but the best. Everybody knows politics is a problem, and I agree that it's more than the coach, but some of you act like Whitley County should be satisfied with mediocrity. Hines is a bad comparison. he has been to a few state championship games.

As much as I donât care for the individual, I look for Whitley to compensate him very well before he retires in a couple years. It is a great hire for Whitley if they are wanting to change the direction of the program. I would be willing to say they also get a couple real good players with the deal.

What I have been told is second hand information from a first hand guy. Itâs not my place to discuss it. Next Monday it SHOULD be official. As 64sure says mark it down. Whitley will be a team to watch out for next year with what they have returning and what he will bring with him.

And he had exceptional talent those years as well. There always seems to be a strong correlation involving talent and coaches that goes to state title games. Switch Haddix and Chappell this year and there probably wouldn't have been a whole lot of change in either schools record. Just using those two as example, the same could be applied to most competent coaches in those situations.

I've always hoped they'd hire a top coach that won't put up with their BS :biglmao::biglmao:

Gotcha, if Corbin gets upset this Friday night could that push the decision back? lol just speculating on my part!

Haha, then they would get rid of a top coach that won't put up with their ways of doing things is usually how that works.

I think they learnt more from the baseball hire than they have ever learnt at Whitley. It will be a outside staff

lol, there wouldn't be any BS on their part if they were committed to winning. I don't know the situation inside Whitley other than you guys on here but it sounds a lot deeper than a coaching situation. If state championships are their goal then there is A LOT of work to be done in more than just coaching. Can their principal keep out of it being a former coach himself?

Some people like to make excuses . There is absolutely no reason that Whitley County should be a perennial loser to teams such as Bell County and Corbin. Don't even tell me that area has better athletes. The only thing they have that is different is administration and coaching.

You are saying the same thing I just said and stating the obvious. You are giving me a headache so I'm through replying to you. lol

You're right! Let's agree to agree. Lol
