Is really quiet, especially since allegations of infidelity have hit major media, wonder whats up?

Maybe he is wearing cement shoes and sleeping with the fishes...no, seriously. I'm OK.
 
If I haven't clarified this enough, I would like ALL the people on this board to know that I have never taken any particular pleasure in bringing the story about RP into the light. I am satisfied however, that the story is newsworthy and should be considered important by everyone involved in the Hoover Community. So, professionally, I believe I did the right thing. I was shocked to see RP deny the allegations. The cover-up is always worse than whatever crime or indescretion has occcured.

Hunter, what paper are you with now?

First, I work for The Western Star in Bessemer. it is a weekly paper covering Bessemer, Hueytown and McCalla primarily, I also am writing articles for UAB Medicine Magazine on a freelance basis.
 
Second, I have tried to contact several people, who are not returning my calls. And I don't blame them.
Other people have several numbers which have been disconnected. But, in short, I am still trying to round out the story to the fullest possible extent and am using all the journalistic avenues available to me.

So you never interviewed any of the woman Propst has been rumored to have slept with?

I think it is apparent that Hunter was the first to remember what the term "journalism" meant.  It also appears that more and more of his colleagues are starting to agree with him:
 
  But the people in Hoover should care. Called into question is the character of their high school, their school board, their academic standards, their football program, their football coach - and, yes, his personal life is relevant here - and their community.

That's fair.  I can see where you are headed with it.  I don't necessarily agree, but I see your point.  
You thought a can of worms was opened with Bishop leaving.  Propst will do everything in his power to turn Hoover on its ear and destroy the program if he is forced out.  The letter Bishops lawyer wrote will be a lullaby in comparison.
 
Good luck.

Well it goes back to what did people insiide the school system know and when did they know it? I did not "dig" anything up, or snoop around for dirt on Propst. My involvment with this story came into play when Jerry Browning resigned, and I learned about certain things that were being discussed in the wake of that resignation. I believe RP is a great football coach and I recommended him publicly for the job at UAB last year.
 
I still think he is a great football coach, as far as strategy and organization goes.  The philosophical debate debate here is whether or not a majority of the community cares whether or not he also teaches chracter and morals or whether he leads by example along with teaching blocking and tackling.
 
I will tell you that I played football in High School and I cannot imagine the coach that I played for doing anything remotely close to what as been implicated about RP.  
 
I can also tell you as a sports fan, that even coaches whom I have never played for made a big impact on my life as a young person.

I was reading a thread today and every time I clicked there was just a white screen. I refreshed the top pane, guess what? the thread had been deleted!  LOL

So Hunter you wrote a story and talked about it on Finebaum without talking to any of the parties that were actually involved.  That is bush league reporting.
