Flippin is open is that boys or girls

My guess is it's girls. Kelvin Hudson has been filling in the last to years but he is AD and middle school principal so I am guessing they are going to look for a full timer.....

I got confirmation that it is indeed for the Flippin girls. Kelvin Hudson is stepping down to devote his time in getting his superintendent degree ( or however they refer to it as).

The Flippin girls are going to be young. The Lady Bobcats graduate seven seniors, including all five starters. Senior to be Jessica Pace will be the lone returner with much varsity experience. A good freshman group is coming in with a couple or maybe three potential starters

 ;D according to my source trumann is supposed to hire their sr boys and sr girls basketball coaches this Monday night. I will let everybody know when I find out who the new coaches are.

Williams is at Marion now I believe as an Asst.
Real was an Asst. at UT-Martin. I think he started out at Earle back in 2004 or so and coached at some TN high schools.

I heard that both were EPC grads

HorseFeathers

So new additions....

Truman Dion Real(Asst at UT-Martin) and Justin Williams(Asst at Marion)...Who's coaching boys and who's got girls?

Arkansas Baptist--Brian Ross(Bentonville Jr High Coach, Asst Varsity)

Real is boys. Williams girls

Ok I will be the first to ask, WHY would you leave UT Martin to come to Trumann. Nothing against Trumann.

Eagle20

You can make more money for one.  No more traveling and you are the head coach, not the peon.

I can't speak specifically about UT-Martin, but a small college assistant is the most brutal job in coaching.

You make SQUAT...You do MINIMAL coaching on the floor and are mostly there because you are young, and don't care to spend most of your time on the road recruiting and working for money that will hover you around the poverty line. It's a TERRIBLE life style IMO.

Its an easy decision to move into high school, get an instant/significant raise, not have to recruit or travel, get to actually coach basketball and add to that WAY more job security.

The_Devil_Himself

Funny thing is that many high schools think they are somehow getting a superior coach by drawing from that pool. Reality is, what they're really getting is a ball fetcher, van driver, JUCO looker, film watcher, moron sitter, stat taker, suit wearer, jock washer wannabe that has never made a practice plan or game plan in their life. All in the name of looking like they made a big-time hire.

sharshaw

Dion Real is an Arkansas native and has been a very successful coach in TN coaching high school boys andgirls at Covington.  Took girls to state for first time in forever and boys were very good as well. He is a great coach and Truman is lucky to get him but he will be moving on to bigger and better soon.  I have coached against him in the same district and region when I was in TN. 

Mike Love

Anybody know what's up with the Lincoln jr high girls and asst high school job:)

Nip/Tusk

From the outside, looks like they're having trouble filling all their openings.

gamechanger11

Could you guys give a coach a chance before judgement is passed? Some many times coaches fail because they were doomed from the start. It would be nice if the coach had support of the community.  Then there might be some success. If the players and other parents hear negative comments before they even meet their new coach he or she will most likely be doomed for they even start. All communities need to support their at least until they have practiced and actually coached at the new school.

Nip/Tusk

Great points gamechanger!!

Totally agree.

Mike Love

Looks like the Sheridan girls job will be open. Players reporting the coach told them yesterday he is leaving, having accepted another job.

TheMercenary

Anyone hear if the Van Buren job has been filled?

Bayhoopfan13

Has anyone heard if Josh Hill is leaving EPC?

The_Devil_Himself


Basketballfan13

Spring Hill Girls should be open, Coach Kidd left for Nashville I believe?

New Maynard boys coach--Adam Blackwell
from Couch, MO

ab24

just saw that heber is open, anyone know where Kyzer is going?

HorseFeathers

Thanks for the updates guys. I'll update the list tonight.

Mike Love

It is official, Sheridan girls coach has resigned to take a position at Lincoln.

Brucewayne

How has Sheridan been the last couple of years?   Seems like they were pretty good under Treadway, weren't they?

Mike Love

Sheridan has as much talent, grades 8-12, as I have ever seen at Sheridan. Treadway only had 1 team finish lower than a 3 seed, 1 time, a 4 seed. 492 wins, 10 conference championships in 23 years. And they almost always never lost at home. New day coming, hoping for a good hire.

well you can add Jason Hughes' name beside the Flippin girls' opening. They hired him yesterday. Hughes was at Viola seven years and the previous three years at Cave City. So now the Cave City girls job is open

Googlymoogly

Oh and Bergman is said to have narrowed its choices down to four so they could be hiring by this time next week.

HorseFeathers
