Looks like we are going to end up with 38 coaching changes this year, the average has been in the 40's the last few years. Seems par for the course.

Don't think it's finished yet. As jobs get filled others may open

And a couple always come open late in the summer on their own (admin jobs, something else comes along to get out of it, etc.) Sadly, I don't see it slowing down anytime soon for years to come.

Crazy isnt it. Started off so slow we thought it was going to be a light year and now look where we are at.

Just. Like. That.

Part of it. Good Luck to the new coaches at their new jobs.

I count 39 openings this year. I haven't seen anything on Henry Clay being filled as of yet - any word?

Henry Clay was never open.

I personally saw it listed on the school district's employment opportunities site. Was it listed by mistake?

Coach Simpson I believe retired from his teaching/administration position and they just posted the coaching job as a formality.

This was discussed in a thread back in March.

Ahhh, missed that nugget of info in the thread.

How many coaches retired compared to resigning/firing?

Mike Holcomb/Letcher Central is the only one I believe.

These are the ones that opened due to coaches taking other head coaching jobs:

 

1) J-town (left for Casey County)

2) Henderson (left for HC job in FLA)

3) Union County (left for Henderson)

4) Nelson County (left for Montgomery)

5) Greenup County (left for PLD).

6) Shelby Valley (left for Pike Central)

 

There was more 'leap frog' than years past, all be it not much...more than years past.
