And, why not throw your hat in the ring, if you are Browning? If you want to be a HC, you have to first apply for the position. It's in Boone County school district so it would be an easy move to make for him and for his family.

 

Of course, whether he has a chance at being hired is besides the point I made.

 

Oh, no one should have a problem with him applying and pursuing the job. If he gets an interview, good experience for him. I am saying Ryle should get more experienced and accomplished applicants.

Maybe the girls coach should apply.

An experienced coach who can change the losing culture and keep quality kids playing basketball is needed.

You're spot on, but who is he and how do pull him from his current position? LOL

Nobody has ever won at South Dearborn. Could be one of the worst jobs in the state of Indiana.

Do we think this will be a quick process to get someone in and get started with the marketing of the new program? Or, a slower, more drawn out process?

If they are hiring an experienced coach, I think it will be a quick process. If they are hiring someone without head coaching experience, then I think it will be more drawn out.

If you have someone in place by the end of school, then I think that is plenty of time. They may have to wait to see what teaching positions they have available.

I have a question? Per the KHSAA website since 1997-98 season to current Ryle has had only 8 winning seasons. Best record was 24-10. 0nly one other 20 win season in that time frame. What makes this a desirable job? Why has a school this size not fared better to this point?

I think it is a mistake to assume that a large student body equates to a strong athletic department. Their football and baseball teams have not had a lot of success historically either.

The size argument really matters most during "tryouts". I get that the more students that try out, the better picks of the bunch you should have. But, unfortunately, it doesn't always work out like that. Ryle is in an affluent part of town, so their are many aspects of economics that could come into play.

How about the coach for Holy Cross for this position?

Joe Frederick? Would he have any interest

Success depends on talent. Has there been talent in the Ryle district? I don't follow middle schools that closely, but it seems like I have read often that Gray Middle School has been successful. That is the middle school on Ryle's campus. What happens to those players after middle school?

I don’t believe they (Gray MS) has ever had a great run of success in the MS leagues.
