If true, they're getting a good one. Would be tough for Mercer County and the guys on that team, 3 coaches in 3 years!

Agreed. And for Trevon it will be his 4th coach. He played varsity as an 8th Grader for Brian Britt.

No reason to do that, LOL! Maybe @theguru needs to invite them to do a release on BGP since the news has spilled out about 36hours before they were going to release their hires anyway. :lol2:

 

 

The school has scheduled a press conference for 2:00 p.m. on Friday to announce both men's and women's basketball coaches.

I am excited about any new high schools, I am all for it!

If it is Kurt Young, who I don't know, is there a point when schools, parents, and kids start wondering why he's bouncing around so much for most of his career? He's not the only one, it's just an observation.

No, if a coach isn't from a place then that is part of it they might not stay or stay long. If a better opportunity opens up for a person and they have been at a school only one year then that is the timing of it in my opinion. You can beat believe the school or parents don't take that into consideration when wanting the coach fired.

I can tell you it is 100% a concern for parents when you look at a resume like this. There is no way you can look at his resume and think this guy will be at our school long term. History is the best way to interpret future behavior.

A new school in the 11th region with many of the programs that Fredrick Douglass will offer in order to attract all types of kids to school is a step up from mercer county. Can't blame the guy.

I'm here for the press conference good crowd here most of the tv news, prep spin is here as well. One thing that is cool there is probably 20 people here that attended the old Frederick Douglas HS a nice gesture on Federick Douglas administration.

The school principal just announced the price tag for new high school is $81 million dollars.
