Is Eddie Eviston out at Newport Central Catholic?

Featured Replies

The other question I have if this is all true is what is current Georgetown OC Craig Mullins going to do?

 

Now coaching at Morehead State.,

 

Eviston had an outstanding career at GC.. He led the tigers to multiple National Championships, and was 3 time NAIA player of the year.. Congrats to him and furthering his coaching career. It will be nice for him to be able to return to Georgetown.

Congrats to Coach Eviston and best of luck at Georgetown. NewCath will survive and make a good choice I wish them the best. JD

No way! He likes his gig at Cooper and would not consider the pay cut required.

 

Although there was probably a time when Coach Borchers may have liked to return to his alma mater I would have to agree with you. He has done a tremendous job at Cooper and from all reports has a pretty nice situation at Cooper and unfortunately I would suspect the NCC job doesn't pay near as well as the Cooper job.

That is sick, he is dead.

Cograts to Coach Eviston!!!

 

What about Borchers? Would he consider going after the NCC job?

 

Spoke with Coach Borchers and he has 0 interest in the NCC job.

I still believe Terry Brown is best choice. Played for Bob graduated in 2000. He played college ball, i forget where. After college ccame home and coached under Bob while going back to school at NKU to become a teacher. He also coached at Campbell Co before getting the head job at Pendleton. He has been around and knows what it takes to be a head coach. He is super dedicated and only 30 years old. If he would get a teaching job on the Hill and coaching job he would be there till the day he dies or asked to leave. I think locking down a solid young coach is important so the Breds are not without a coach in a few years. Wagner is a great coach but getting older, maybe 10 years at complete tops coaching left. 10 years with same coach is long for some schools but not NewCath.

No one has mentioned the possibility of Jeff Barth from Walton. I know he is happy there but being from Ft Thomas, he'd be a great fit at New Cath. Is Wagner a lock?

 

I am sure Coach Barth would do a great job, though I am sure both he and NCC are looking in another direction. Barth seems committed on building Walton into a power. I am sure this year's playoff loss to NCC has him wondering what it would be like coaching at an elite program, but he seems very happy and hungry to help make the next elite program.

I have been hearing this baloney for 25 yrs. Wagner will not be the coach imo, Iam thinking Tubby Bates has this one locked up...

 

Awesome contribution.

I guess 'Bruce' Already has a coaching job? FYI it is Tubby Beatch. RIP

 

Sorry, not the same guy I was thinking of then...

 

People on here have very thin skin imo

I agree that coach Barth would do an outstanding job if he were to go to NCC, but I think there is something about building your own program that is very appealing, just my opinion. The future at WV looks bright, seems as though the community has bought into supporting the football bearcats, they are only going to improve over the next few years.

All I'm going to say is, NCC usually "stays within the house" when it comes to hiring. Whether it be teachers, coaching, everything. Teachers usually Covcath/NCC grads, and coaches usually NCC grads, BUT when they hire a HC (not much of a history of it, but when there is), they usually are interested in, and hire someone already on staff. Odds are pretty good someone on the staff right now gets the job. I remember in 2010, I believe they interviewed/considered Sam Beiting (Teacher and DB coach), was freshman coach), Tony (I think) Acito, he was a teacher at the time, and was an assistant coach at Mt. St. Joes in Ohio, Dave Schneider (O-Coordinator), Eddie Eviston who was on staff (I think QB's coach at that time), and obviously Dan Wagner, who was already the D-coordinator. You look at that, and think, do you really think they'll hire someone that's not already at NCC in some shape or form? I don't think so, it's unlikely. But after Eddie leaving, I think they're going to see among their candidates, and see who would take the job and stay for a long time. It'll be an interesting process, especially if Carl Foster is the one searching. Just to throw a wild card out there though, I wouldn't put it past the realm of possibility a re-hire of Bob Schneider considering he is still on the coaching staff as he came out of retirement. All depends on if he can handle it. I would think he'll be the 1st person they turn to, again that's why the Carl Foster part intrigues me, because Carl will definitely contact Bob.

Guess I missed that. Just tried to answer your question.. My bad

Was made aware of the situation while at work this morning. I believe he had a meeting with the seniors today. But I'm not too worried, as I wanted Wagner to be head coach in the first place last time around. If he's not the pick this time, I'll be extremely disappointed. What NCC needs and wants is someone that will stay at the program, and not use it as a stepping stone, Wags is that guy. I wouldn't look in so much to Eddie's record though (again no shot at Eddie, but stating facts), I mean look at the talent on those teams, it's ridiculous. Chris Kelly, Jake Giesler, and many others on the 2010 team, Brady Hightchew, and others on the 2011 team, and Dylan Hayes, Josh Cain, Brady Thacker and others on this 2012 edition. Anything short of the success they had would have been extremely disappointing. Best of luck to Eddie though, but looking forward to Wags becoming the HC.

IMO, this post isn't accurate. NCC has had talent running in and out of those doors for years. Eddie deserves a ton of credit and the numbers should be looked at. Finishing off the season with a championship is something the school has struggled with and now has set those standards higher for the incoming players. This is a credit to the great players as well as good coaches, especially the head coach.

I know, if you read my other posts, I did give him credit. But to claim that Eddie is solely responsible shows you aren't that close to the program. In the past 7-8 years, NCC has had an influx of talent, Sam Diehl, Michael Vicars, Jared Harris, Rob Kues, Mark Kelly, Chris Kelly, all kinds of big names. The school hasn't struggled with it really since 2005, also being when Bob was the coach, but in 2007-2008, they ran into a train in Fort Campbell, and still almost came away with it the second time around, despite Rob Kues separating his shoulder. I'm sorry, but the talent level recently has been much higher than previous years. I will give Eddie however that the talent coming in right now being sophmores on down, will mainly be there due to his success. But before that, those were kids that grew up watching and admiring the NCC program, and all came in at a good time, and meshed well together. Yes, Eddie was a good coach as I said, but people are giving him all the credit, which is what my post was about, the players deserve A LOT of credit as well.
