I suppose I’m pretty naive as I wasn’t good enough to have my parents have the coaches ear. Is he opposed to the support of a booster club because of a past experience gone wrong? I would think shaking hands and kissing babies (the booster club) would only increase support for team (financially and numbers). 

Pretty sure most coaches play the Booster Club game because they have to. Not because they want to. Kind of surprised that people just don't know that in their minds. 

Then again there were quite a few people who immediately sided with the malcontent from Cooper. Maybe I am the one who is out there?

No, no. ? Nothing bad. He inherited his opinion from Joey Downs, who inherited it from Garnis Martin, etc. The key takeaway I should have been more clear on is he won’t be beholden to anyone.

One night at Boyle w/ my Dad, early 70's got to be across the field from Coach Martin. His Tiger's won that game 14-0. Those city schools were powerhouses back in those days. 

Coach Clark will do a super job for the Knights!

50 years later and it still rings true.

”As much as things change, they remain the same.”

Along with the added emergence of “county system schools” & privates that both also happen to be college towns/cities.

Very happy for Coach Clark!

The previous three head coaches had zero head coaching experience. Coach Clark has 17 years. I believe the stability and experience he brings make him an ideal hire. 

Fair enough. Maybe I'll be completely wrong. For LexCath's sake I honestly hope I am wrong. I guess I honestly was just expecting to see the school looking out of state again.
