This has been going on for a few years. Some people in the administration (sounds like a few school board members) have been wanting to make a change. Rucki’s success has prevented them from moving on from him. Rucki isn’t dumb. He knows that they aren’t going to great next year so they will finally have a reason to get rid of him if they have a bad year. He jumped off the cliff before they could push him off.
i would never apply for that job. Nor should most people. As mentioned many times now, why would anybody want a job where the administration just pushed out a successful coach. That’s just setting up the next guy for failure. Going to be hard to do better than Rucki did.
Correction, will be impossible to do better than what Rucki did
BOE meeting May 30 at 8am. Unusual time. Hmmm
Do you think they've finally got someone?
As of two days ago, definitely not.
Got a whole week to talk someone into it
No one has been contacted from my sources. They’re at a standstill.
Who's at a standstill?
The school
Reliably, a number of us know the current varsity coaches at Marietta, Reynoldsburg, Shelby and Oak Harbor have been offered. I candidly don't know what they are doing/can do now. Recent indications are no one else has been offered or is considering as of the middle of this week.
Doesn't sound like the May 30th board meeting will bring any news.
Lol....it's pretty obvious that nobody has accepted. They usually announce that kind of stuff
So does Findlay have a basketball coach after this Thursday's board meeting?
They will need to offer someone first and I just don’t see that happening.
Maybe Rucki changed his mind.
Got his Masters from UFindlay so can't be all bad. Why Marysville to North Union, though?
Yes, Gross is the selection, and every indication is he will accept the position. I'll bet nobody at FHS thought the road would be this long and challenging. Hope things go well for him and the Trojans.
Nobody in Findlay until a few days ago....
Who got the Napoleon job?
And don't say Ryan Grose.
