Who is up for this job? From people I have talked to, Christian County has quality talent. It would seem like a high profile job. Let us know for those who have the inside scoop.

Looks like Steve Lovelace has the inside track-

Coach Lovelace is an outstanding Coach...he should have gotten the Hopkinsville job after Coach Clayton left. Steve is a great motivator and the kids really respond to them. He was a great running back/linebacker down here at Mayfield in the late 80's and a very good player at Campbellsville and helped turn the Hopkinsville defense into a very good unit while he was there. I for one hope that he gets the job at Christian County.

There's some reasonS why Lovelace didn't get the Hopkinsville job.

 

Lovelace has a interview coming up for the Louisville Central job. The people in the "Know" at Christian Co. say they are putting together a list of possible canidates. Lovelace has a chance and now that he is certified it helps. He's had is issues over there and may not be the top choice by some.

Off topic but great user name, I love it.

Christian Co. has contacted a couple of Coaches but those guys told them no thanks. It's going around over there that Lovelace is the only one that has applied thus far. According to some of the Christian Co. faithful he's on the list but not the top of the list.

 

Pat Gates is a name getting tossed around and John Adams (O-Line Coach) is getting some mention as a strong possibility.

Steve Lovelace (Defensive Coordinator)

John Adams (O-Line Coach)

 

Those are only 2 that have officially applied according to Christian Co. There seems to be some push for John Adams by a lot of people in the Colonel camp.
