NotMattJones Posted February 1, 2022 Share Posted February 1, 2022 MUCH better facilities at Mercer. Easier schedule with 3A and Mercer's district. Middle school has been stable for years. The program has traditional support right now. The Mercer job is miles ahead of Lincoln. Garrard will come closer when they make the facilities upgrades that are planned. I think Mercer also has a more steady flow of athletes coming through the school, which helps. The job itself is ahead of Lincoln and Garrard, IMO.

Lincoln has appeared to have the better middle school program the last few years and did beat Mercer the last time they went head to head in high school. So I don't know about miles apart. Mercer does have great training facilities. Lincoln pays better than Mercer and Garrard too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coaching stipends might be more at LC, but the teaching salaries are some of the worst in CKY. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just took a look, yea teaching scale is more but LC salary stipend is almost double. So it would depend on rank and experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I couldn't find Lincoln's on their website but if Mercer's stipend is truly $6000 then a lot of districts are going to almost double that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The HC stipend is only $6,000, but I am pretty sure there are extended days on top of that. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BEChargers Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 I heard 12-15 applicants. Due process is taking place. No real reason to be hearing much yet. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I figured that was the case but haven't heard any names specifically. I guess it's really not my business either LOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BEChargers Posted February 2, 2022 Share Posted February 2, 2022 I haven't heard any names either. I heard a good mix of current assistants and current head coaches. But no names. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
