@DallasAJackson: High odds that Louisville Trinity coach Bob Beatty didnt want this getting out.... From @NWAHenry (Football: Bentonville coaching vacancy draws 33 applicants | NWADG)

I hope most of these guys communicated with their administration or have a good explanation for their players.

Athletic Director Scott Passmore said Friday afternoon he has resumes from 33 people interested in the vacancy created when Barry Lunney announced his retirement on Jan. 26. That is seven more applicants than were announced last week, and Passmore said he didn't expect anybody to be a late applicant.

...

Also on the list are two current head coaches inside state borders -- Van Paschal of Monticello and Tim Harper of Mena -- as well as Louisville (Ky.) Trinity head coach Robert "Bob" Beatty, Livonia, La., assistant coach Trevor

Porter and Highland Park, Texas, assistant coach Toby Trotter.

Bentonville has all of the $$$ they could want or need. Great facilities including a full width and 80 yard long indoor practice facility. They play a nice schedule also, playing some of the Texas big boys from time to time including Euless Trinity.

 

Indoor facility is at the top above the stadium...

They have that Walmart money don't they?

Yes they do...piles of it if needed.

 

The parents of that school probably have as high average income as any public school in the country.

I would say that Bob is leaving. There is no way he would let his name out unless he was on his way out of Trinity and who can blame him to go to that set up

Didn't T get him from an Arkansas school? You can't blame the man in anyway. I don't really see why he would need to give an explanation to anyone for applying. I can see giving your AD the heads up so they can get stuff in line in case he gets the job.

[sportsfan08]

This guy has a National Championship under his belt in the last 5 years. I can't believe he would even have to interview.

[MrKnowNothing]

Interview was probably a formality. Bob is a great coach and if wants the job- it would be hard for them to turn him down

Didn't T get him from an Arkansas school?

 

I think he came from Blue Spring, Missouri, just outside of Kansas City.

What does this tell you about KY football?

What does this tell you about KY football?

 

Nothing.

 

Is it telling you something?
