That one is a shocker
03-27-2024, 06:02 PM
Will this job draw any interest? I’d guess they just give it to another person on staff. Any info on why he stepped down?
03-27-2024, 06:17 PM
He didn’t he was given a choice and choose to resign.

This may be a wild thought process from me but
Eric Ratliff back to being their football coach
Derrick Newsome takes over the basketball job

Eric Ratliff is not taking any job where he can’t be immediately successful. So if he thinks PC is ready to go 8-2 and win 2-3 games in the playoffs, your thoughts wouldn’t be so wild.

I’d assume Eric Ratliff ain’t too far from retiring. But could be wrong. He was my coach 21 years ago lol

I would say to be successful there, you would need new blood. And it’s late in the game for a big name hire.
They need to make a hire though. Not sit on it. It’s already a breeding ground for cherry picking players.

Resign or be fired no clue why
03-27-2024, 11:27 PM
If they can keep their best players from going to Pikeville before they leave middle school a really good job

No reason and it came from the principal and AD not the BOE. AD that’s been retired for years and on a 100 day contract each year. He has ran all the programs in the ground except basketball and word is he wants Ratliff gone because he won’t do what he says and he has a young grandson coming up in one of the feeder schools. I’m sure he is still taking up all the tickets and gate money for each sports games though. I can’t believe the parents haven’t demanded he be gotten rid of. As along as he is in control none of the sports will succeed boys or girls teams.

This move doesn’t make sense. If they wanted him gone should have done that at the end of the season so they could have got a new coach in. Fans of these schools complain that parents take their kids to other schools in this area but moves like this is why. Never should have waited until basketball ended to do this.

Tough job for anyone to take when their best players will always get plucked by the city school.

They have a good Senior class coming up.
per their last years roster, doesn’t look like they lose many seniors.

Middle School Coach left/was forced out (not sure) about a month or so ago as well. Just an interesting footnote.
03-29-2024, 01:32 PM
Has any players left yet?
03-31-2024, 09:31 PM
Beg Eric Ratliff to take the job. I've long said he is the most underrated (and one of the best) in the mountains.

There's rumors going around that the QB is transferring. I've not heard that from a reliable source and don't believe it, but have heard it.
