UKBaseball85 Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 Heard an assistant coach from a team currently in their district has had conversations about this position. I'm following to find out more. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BEChargers Posted March 14 Share Posted March 14 Surprised that Steven French is not being given a shot. Tons of experience with top level programs. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CAT DIESEL POWER Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 Had a little birdie tell me today that it is in fact Foley and will be announced tomorrow. While I trust the person that this information is coming from it wouldn't be the first time that I had reliable information that ended up being false. So I guess time will tell but hold on to you seats this may be getting interesting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DearToday Posted March 19 Share Posted March 19 I give Foley to Russell a negative 23% chance. 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGameIsComplicated Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 Can anyone think of one reason Foley would leave SW for Russell at this point? I have genuinely tried all morning and can't come up with one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coe's in Russell Springs has the best Catfish in the state, that could be a strong reason on its own! 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At a quick glance, for a 10 year teacher at Rank 2, SW's district is actually around $300.00 more on the certified teacher salary schedule. I don't know Foley's certification credentials specifically but I thought that was a good gauge for salary comparison. I did not look up football money because that takes slightly more digging but It would be hard for me to imagine RC paying more than SW's district on the supplement side.

Russell Co is a one district town, they can pay people whatever they want. SW has to pay what the PCBOE sets for both SW and PC. Now RC has to be willing to make those moves, but it can and has been done to hire people you want. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would be very surprised, and excited for RC, if they decided to make these moves. I could be wrong, but I don't recall a time that RC has really sold out for a coach. They have made strong investments with facilities upgrades recently and it would be a great time to really go get a guy worth some money, Foley or not. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have genuinely tried all morning and can't come up with one. The mighty dollar could be one? The fact that he is from there maybe? Not saying they are good reasons but they are reasons to leave SW for Russell. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BobbyKnight Posted March 20 Share Posted March 20 The $$$$ and new facilities. Could end up with a cupcake job that pays well, really well. District and don't have to compete with 2 other good programs in your county. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
