Todd Porter, head basketball coach at Scott County Central, will not be back to coach the Braves next season after being pressured to resign.
Porter led Scott County to a 19-8 record this past season and an 67-42 record over the last 4 years.
Scott County has won 12 state championships over the years and Porter failed to return the Braves to their glory. In fact, Porter never won a district title at Scott County.
"I knew coming in that the expectations would be high," Porter said. "But I didn't meet them I guess. There just wasn't the same pool of talent here (in recent years). But that's part of the job I guess."
