Pretty sure I read on another thread that the remaining coaches were looking elsewhere, one may have already taken a position if I recall correctly... I think the best information you'll find here regarding HS is here: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrclean69 Posted December 15, 2022 Share Posted December 15, 2022 I'm interested to see if they just want new blood or if they want to "spread em and shred em". Also interested in how the latter will go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most likely an outside hire. One positive is the new guy will have an opportunity to bring in just about a new staff of his choosing looking at some previous posts. Lots of assistant openings already. Would love to see the spread em and shred em results there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also interested in how the latter will go. That’s it in a nutshell. Not cool if we don’t run the chunk and dunk offense. Everybody’s doing it! Can’t win if we don’t run it ! “Hey we have 5 lineman that are 5’6 and weight 350 pounds each”—- chunk and dunk is the perfect offense for us. Bandwagon!!!! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wokewon Posted December 19, 2022 Share Posted December 19, 2022 Posted on THSCA site. I hear they have a 1 person search committee and she's looking for a Burt Cotton type coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gonna be hard to hire a whole new staff in HS...everybody think hiring all new will be good but itll be hard to get them all filled 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Destry Posted December 19, 2022 Share Posted December 19, 2022 Just curious, how is the assistant coach job market these days. Plenty to go around or shortage? I know location has something to do with it but just statewide? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dude won an average of 7 games a year and got canned. Now, him, his wife, and his kid has to find a new school. Not to mention the assistant coaches and their families. I know that lifestyle comes with the profession but its hard to sell that to the younger generation of people especially getting reassigned after years of success. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hadn't he filled in as SB and baseball coach in the past and made the playoffs in both of those as the fill in coach? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know location has something to do with it but just statewide? It is next to impossible to find qualified assistant coaches. That was the answer I got from several very good head coaches that were at pretty desirable programs. For the smaller schools that are just not able to match the salaries of the larger schools it is even harder. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure about the playoffs but I remember him coaching them. I hear he coached 7th grade football this year and went undefeated. And 7th basketball now and undefeated so far. He has done everything asked of him.........except one thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slickarick Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 Sadly long stents like this last coach are rarely seen now a days. Hopefully they will find a coach that wants to stay and build and this doesn't turn into a stepping stone job. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Destry Posted January 5, 2023 Share Posted January 5, 2023 In this situation the guy who comes in after a person has been there this long usually doesn’t stay long. The second or third guy in has a better chance of longevity, whether coach , superintendent, or pastor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
