Johnston City coach Bruce Baker fights impending firing over past
Bruce Baker seeks to block his removal as Johnston City Indians boys basketball coach amid questions from school leaders about his past resume and alleged past incidents including a Harassment call to a church and a school employment dispute. Baker says he did not refuse the job and blames questions on misstatements, while supporters and potential successors discuss who should lead the program. The board has yet to finalize its decision, and Baker plans to consult an attorney and pursue investigations.
