New Hopkinsville High School Principal Jay Buckley says he will announce on Friday who the new boys basketball coach at Hopkinsville will be. Nobody knows other then Buckley on who that will be.

 

There is some speculation that the new hire is friends with Buckley and two go way back. That narrows the list down quite a bit.

I think the timing of Chumbler's "retirement" from Trigg and a new principal with Graves County ties at Hopkinsville might bear some watching. I don't expect it to be a Hoptown/Trigg coaching trade though.

Called this one last month.

Called this one last month.

 

 

Doubtful that it's Chumbler.

Then again MAYBE a certain coach familiar with Hopkinsville is in the process of making a strong push. The next couple of days will be gossip city in Hopkinsville as to whom the new coach will be.

If the new coach is someone with a Buckley tie, it could be Graves County assistant Jim Simmons. The two go way back from their days at Graves, and talk is Simmons is one of the three finalists.

Buckley is saying the new Coach does NOT have any ties to Hopkinsville. It's becoming obvious that the coach will be Simmons which isn't a suprise especially with him and Buckley knowing each other.
