The first one I found was Nicholas County, $4,000.

I had always heard $2,000-$4,000.

I am shocked that any school would place such little value on the impact a high school coach has on our youth.

I would suspect it would border more in the $2,000 range, especially if you are a teacher or employed in the system.

Shocked!  Shocked!  Shocked!  Been out of education and coaching since 1974 and back then the HC football and basketball stipends were $3,000.  That’s 49 years ago and we have done that little……appaling.

I'm shocked that anyone would take the job for that amount.

Administrators' salaries have probably tripled in that time. 

I heard this morning the Lieberman interviewed yesterday but the did not have any more information. 

I think this one has been filled with announcement coming later today.  Parker Stewart, who was the coach at Jackson Co. this year.  Previously, he was a player at Indiana and worked in the Atlanta Hawks organization briefly as well.

Reports coming out they are hiring Parker Stewart. Current Jackson County coach. 

The Generals went 23-10 this past season.  Albeit, against a light schedule.  Intriguing hire if this is the case.  It will be interesting to see how the roster shakes out. 

Parker Stewart??

Read my info on it. His connection to the state is marrying former South Laurel star player Ally Collett. I believe she was on the staff at Jackson Co. this season.

This could turn out to be a good hire.
