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 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.
