CoachT is Jim Thompson, a teacher and coach who retired in June 2010 after his 32nd year (35 years total in teaching) at Lawrence County High School in Lawrenceburg, TN. The technical specialist who makes all of the features on CoachT work correctly is Bradley Lambert. A graduate of Lawrence County High in 1970, Coach Thompson played four years of... football and one year of basketball for the Austin Peay Governors. Coach Thompson coached high school football for 11 years (three in Charleston, SC and eight years at Lawrence County) and coached one year in college as a graduate assistant at Middle Tennessee. CoachT coached boy's high school basketball for 8 years -- two as head coach and 6 as an assistant. He has also coached baseball for two years, both as head coach, and coached golf for 18 years. CoachT.com began on October 15th, 1997 as a simple site covering the Lawrence County Lady Cats basketball team for 1997-98. As luck would have it, the Lady Cats won the Class AAA State Championship that season. When time permitted, CoachT also participated in Lady Cat basketball broadcasts on WDXE Radio. The site was later expanded to cover all of District 8-AAA basketball teams.

Gage is a former Tennessean and now is a Floridian with his wife and 5 kids.
