Colonels_Wear_Blue Posted December 5, 2023 Share Posted December 5, 2023 Interesting things going on in Shelby County. They decided to can Todd Shipley after 20+ years as head coach of the Rockets, then go through the process of interviewing several alums who had plenty of years as high school assistant coaches in surrounding areas as well as a handful of other experienced high school assistants, and then they go with a middle school coach with no high school experience instead. They end up with a 4-7 season with a 1st round playoff exit, a 5-6 season with a 1st round playoff exit, and then a 4-6 season without a playoff birth. And now this. I think it's safe to say that they should probably be looking for a new approach to making their next hire. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Voice of Reason Posted December 5, 2023 Share Posted December 5, 2023 I have no clue what happened, but it sounds like the middle school coach responded to the news like a middle schooler. 1 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But as a Franklin County guy, you're closer to the situation than I am and probably have better info. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One of my coaching buddies referred told me "he absolutely hit the roof, then came back down and bounced off the floor so he could hit the roof again".

J. Peterman Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 Can someone close to what is happening in Shelby maybe shed some light on what might of led to the termination of the coach? Had there been issues in the classroom? Issues on the field. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
