definitely a young one, but that’s how they become great

Let's be honest - what does Lakota have to lose? He's been in their program and they aren't competing for championships. If they could maintain status quo or improve a game or two I'm sure they'd be elated.

Woodmore has found a new head coach don’t know the name it should be announced tomorrow, they voted up on it last night at board meeting

Lakota just lost a good young coach when Lento left for Calvert. You're not going to get any established coach that's better than what they had to go to Lakota, so a young coach that's already in the program and they have faith in is about the best hire you can ask for

That was kind of my point. They had no one else knocking on their door so they might as well go for it.

Reynoldsburg HC is out

 

[usfldan]

It's March 20, 2024

You can move Chris Mobley down one line. He decided to take the job at Purcell Marian instead of Gamble Montessori:

Purcell Marian High School names Chris Mobley Jr. as its next head football coach

Purcell Marian named Chris Mobley Jr. on Wednesday afternoon as its next head football coach. He succeeds former head coach Jeremy Pflug.

www.wcpo.com

Mobley accepted the Gamble Montessori head coaching position in February and informed the team earlier this week about his decision to accept the Purcell Marian position. Mobley said it was a very difficult decision but he wants to continue to be supportive of the Gamble Montessori student-athletes in the future.

Gamble Montessori athletic director Dave Miller said the school is considering all options for its head football coaching vacancy.

Steve Bozier (was their head coach back in the 90s) is taking over Tri-County North. He was most recently the AD at Jay County in Indiana

Reynoldsburg HC is out

Any idea who may get the Burg Job?

 

[FballFan91]

Any idea who may get the Burg Job?

Last big job left, maybe in all of Ohio. OCC school, but more CCS than OCC. They had some great teams under Buddy White, struggled lately. Could they get back to being relevant under the right leadership. This late in the off season though, would someone be willing to leave their current spot to make this jump?

bigger drawback of Reynoldsburg isn’t “more CCS than OCC”, but the fact it’s one program for two campuses that are a PITA distance from another

I don't think the question is WHY isn't the job filled, but HAS it been filled or is it going to be filled? Creates some problems if they can't play ball in '24.
