Open Job: Tates Creek

Coach Sims stepped down to take the sergeant position at Bryan Station

Tates Creek football coach Antoine Sims resigns | Lexington Herald Leader

This is a great job for the right person.

Big loss for TC. Coach Sims was a great fit for the job and was able to affect lives in a positive way and turn the program around. He did so much for so many behind the scenes and always put the well being of the person before football. Good luck to him in his future endeavors.

The administration has a tough job ahead. The program has momentum and is a great opportunity for the right Coach. Hire the right coach and they continue trending up, hire the wrong one and it will go south in a hurry.

TC is lucky to have a strong candidate in-house. The DC, Jon Smith is a long time assistant that has been a DC at multiple stops and would be a great fit (imo). When he was in the SCKY neck of the woods, we led Warren East in their 2005-2007 years when they went to the Final Four in 4A. I hope they give Coach Smith a shot!

Any news on this position? Awfully quite

Have heard the rumors of Tates Creek interviewing a few candidates that Dunbar did not interview. Will be interesting to see who the Commodores hire. This is arguably the second best public school position in Lexington right now behind Frederick Douglass.

Are you saying that Tates Creek had people apply who didn't apply for the Dunbar job, or are you saying Dunbar declined to interview certain applicants that Tates Creek is going ahead and interviewing?

I think they are still taking applications till end of next week. Ive heard two names they are set to interview, im sure they will interview more than 2, just heard those 2 names. Lots of interest from what I hear.

Can you share the two names?

Nope, not fair to the coaches or the current schools they are at.

Tates Creek could be a really nice job for the right person.
