Man I'm going to embarrass myself with this, but there's this king, Joffrey, who is probably one of the most hated characters in TV history. Just cruel, stupid and a terrible, terrible person. But he's king. Then there's his grandfather who is kind of like the chief of staff and is the one who actually runs things and people obey. The king has this habit of constantly announcing he's king and his grandfather points out that any real king shouldn't have to constantly tell people that. Now sit down and shut up and I'll go win this war for you. I can only assume that is the scenario that Don is hinting at. Not following. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I hear the principal stepped in and announced he's principal, like you're alluding, and laid down the law about one of the interviewees. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yep, people will always blame the limited crowds for the reason Highlands football has not been getting donations and alumni support of years past. Just a reminder to those that have forgotten the reality that football and its revenue is still King and the cash cow at Highlands. All sports not named football should be in full support of an over the top hire to restore business as usual in Ft Thomas. JMO 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jack of all Trades 1,372 Posted January 14 Would someone like Jason Lynch be a candidate for this position? Worked under Dale and if I recall correctly called the offense the year Highlands won a state title when Dale was away for a death in the family. Has Jeff Barth applied for the position? Did he get an interview? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But, since you mentioned it your "over the top hire" went over the top. Always seemed to me that HHS coaching staffs had really good working relationships.

barrel 411 Posted January 14 Now that might be a hire that isn’t a typical hire for HHS but be a really good one. I don’t know how many of the boxes he checks which is what makes it atypical. Sometimes that’s the best ones. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
