Happy Osborne is the New Head Coach at Montgomery County High School

Welcome to the 40th district and 10th region Happy!!!!!!

Talk about a high school making a homerun hire...

I was waiting for somebody to start this thread. It has been known for a couple of weeks he was going to be the new coach.

 

Happy is definitely a heck of a coach at the college level. Basketball is basketball, so I expect him to see a lot of success at Montgomery County. But, he will be dealing with issues you don't see at the college level with Montgomery County. I know a parent group led an attack of the previous coach because little Johnny (who was not good enough anyway) didn't get as much exposure as Mom and Dad wanted. And, Happy is more matter of fact that Tony Wise, so the parents and players better be ready.

Didn't take long for them to update the directory.

It'll be Happy's way this coming season. His way is a very good way, though. Those kids are going to learn a lot.

Some parents might learn alot too!

Although I am still upset with the way Coach Wise was treated, I can back this hire. I am looking forward to seeing who is on his staff and how Coach Osborne handles the Middle School program.

Happy won't take any guff. If you can play, you will.

 

And you will probably be in the best shape of your life, because Happy's teams run, run, then run some more.

This sure does make the community feel better. There is still a lot of work to be done by the current administration but finally a positive story.

Any concerns about him bolting for another job after a year? Or is this his swan song?

Congrats to Montgomery Co in getting an amazing coach!

Good hire.

 

But someone tell me why he leaves Georgetown then heads south to coach in TN. Then decides he wants to coach high school basketball? Am I missing something?

All good questions.
