Starns is a talent chaser. Takes a job til the talent dries up, and then bolts. Has never built anything. I wouldn't hire him to coach a grade scool team.

Add Caverna and Cumberland County to this list. Caverna job has to be attractive with the Faulkner kid.

Also add Middlesboro.

12 Openings? I think we could see about 30 by May.... If it was anything like last year's job postings.

Has Goodin ever won anywhere? District/Region?

Goodin has won at both western and doss. Both were considered rebuilding jobs when he took them. Won district last year and left a team that would be favored and eventually win this years 6th region for KWC

Outside looking in I thought the Butler job was the best open right now. Goodin will do well. Butler is the job I would have went after if I had wanted to leave Florida, not that I could have gotten it, just saying it looked attractive to me. Where is Goodin leaving? College job right? Asst job? Thanks for being informative dawgs83

Would be a "Bigg" hire for Bracken. Do they go after him?

 

Can't believe Hinson's name has not been mentioned. I know last year many believed it was a given he would get the job.

Mr. Viking, Good for me, I recognize talent when I see it!! What an awesome trait for a Coach to have!! I'm glad you recognize that trait in me as well! My former boss Rick Pitino, would be pleased with that as well. Good piece of advise he gave me long ago was to chase winning and your dreams and that's exactly what I'm doing. This is Coach Starns, not hiding behind the moniker that you have what cowards do. As Coach Pitino once said, the bolgs and talk shows are for the fellowship of the miserable put irresponsible post up and not being held accountable. You know nothing about me. I was with Coach Kelly Wells, at Mason for 4 years, I guess we chased talent, no we chased a Championship. When he left due to circumstances out of my control and if you do your homework and speak to the right people they will tell you the real story. Johnson Central just to happen to be looking for a Coach and was able to get the position and in my first year the boys at JCHS took me to the State. When interviewed I was promised total control of the program. When you promise a candidate things in an interview then don't live up to those promises then that my friend that is a breach in a relationship, and due to the FB coach sabotaging and telling people that won't happen again because he made that statement to faculty members, I went right to administration, and said you can't pretend that you head is in the sand on this. I'm so proud of my former assistant Tommy McKenzie, going to 4 straight trips to the State 5 out 9 years not to shabby! Did talent dry up there? I think not. I took position at Henderson and stayed 5 years until politics came in and new principal and removed me from that position. That senior group this year I played as freshmen (David Simmons ect..) do you homework on that and you find the correct answer. I took position at Fleming because administrator was making it difficult to stay in building with new head coach. I was humiliated and the Good Lord vindicated me with talented group at Fleming and the boys at FCHS took me to two trips to State! Coach Kelly, left Fleming due to family reasons and went to be back with his family in Tennessee. I was ask to stay at least 2 years with that group at Fleming and I keep my promise to them. I left Fleming to take Union Co position and to be with my wife who still lived in Henderson same reason as Coach Kelly. I will not apologize for that or chasing winning and my dreams!

Goodin is at KY Wesleyan with Happy Osborne as an assistant. If Happy goes to EKU, does Goodin follow? The EKU job may be someone else's already, but I think that is the holdup. The Butler job is good for many reasons, but the talent pool there right now is down and it always is nice to come into a job with talent there. It is a bit of a rebuilding job, but if they give the right coach time it is a very good job in the 6th region.

 

Goodin would be a great pick.

I don't know if I would leave a college job for Butler HS. I'm just saying that sounds far fetched.

I probably wouldn't leave EKU for a high school job, but if he's an assistant at Wesleyan he might make more money (and have more retirement) back in the high school game.

 

(I say that knowing nothing of what a Wesleyan assistant would make)

Gonna be a BIG name school added to this list today or tomorrow. Stay tuned.
