DOB Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 Just wondering how difficult it would be to turn a football program around when your boss, the superintendent, was a successful small town basketball coach and his two previous stints as superintendent have been with schools that never played football? I do not know this particular sup, but my four and a half decades in the school buziness tells me anybody going in needs to ask that question. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DOB Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 There's more than one Brian Nichols that is a sup ... Brian A. and J. Brian ... Might check again ... I re-looked and didn't find a Hallsville connection .... But I've wrong before. He also coached at Oakwood. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Playfor77 Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 He came from New Summerfield and I know him well. He won a state championship in basketball at Laneville and graduated from Cushing. Several bigger schools have approached him about their superintendent positions. He is one of the smartest and well prepared men I know. I make no promises about who he’ll hire as football coach, but then how many coaches are hired who don’t work out? Apparently, he can’t do any worse than his predecessor. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good luck in their selection process - the kids deserve the best ... and it's ALWAYS about the kids ... or at least it should be ... sometimes adults forget that - especially when personal agendas get in the way.

dillonpanthers Posted December 8, 2019 Author Share Posted December 8, 2019 Thanks. I am sure if he is a former coach he will have a lot of connections to the coaching world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neveragain Posted December 9, 2019 Share Posted December 9, 2019 Dr. Nichols is one of the brightest lights in the superintendent world....I'd trust him with pretty much anything when it comes to school business and that includes finding a good fit for the coaching position. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vandalism1 Posted December 10, 2019 Share Posted December 10, 2019 Have hired within the past couple times, don’t see that happening this time though due to lack of success lately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dillonpanthers Posted December 10, 2019 Author Share Posted December 10, 2019 You would think lack of success and new superintendent would be an outside hire. Never know. If Ivey is staying in administration in Canton, he may still have more say than you'd expect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mount2002 Posted February 7, 2020 Share Posted February 7, 2020 I know Mr Nichols personally been around him for years.... hes one of the best sups there are... not only is he a great sup but one of the best people you could find. Came from great family and whoever he hires will be a great hire for the job... the man knows what hes doing. Whoever he hires will be fortunate to have someone like him as their sup as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
