Who is in line to get the Owen County job?

[giantkiller]

It should be close to time to interview, who are the names and is there an inside favorite?

[Knute Rockne]

Any news out of Owen?

[willydidit]

Heard they hired a coach last night. Does anyone have any information on who got it? Thanks

Any word on who it is?

[1&ONLY44]

Little bird said that it was Bruce Jones formerly of Powell County...again just a rumor

[willydidit]

I've heard it is Hockensmtih from Owen-currently AD there. Again, rumor

[oldonetechnique]

Little bird called common sense told me that Owen is in trouble if they dont have some one by now.

[Tall Trees]

Who is it? Or is it top secret. :creepy:

Thats him.

[Tall Trees]

If this is true and they hired the AD and the way that they about getting rid of Coach U (who got the most out of his players) this sounds kinda shadey.:creepy:

Something definitely does not sound right...

[giantkiller]

Who is this guy and what are his credentials. I also heard that they got rid of the assistants as well so is the new guy going to have a staff, are they going to let him hire some coaches, just curious

They went to the playoffs twice and were blown out both times. I'm not sure what the current search will yield, but I don't think Coach U was getting it done.

Hard to make chicken salad out of chicken stuffing. Coach U got the most that he could out of his kids. Also he never went to or was blown out of the playoffs twice.

 

Do you know the circumstances behind him being out of a job? If you do then you know it is shadey.

My apologies. He went once, in 2001, and they lost to Fleming County 55-0. I know Owen was a tough job, but I didn't see him making a lot of progress.

 

As for his firing/removal, whatever, I don't know the circumstances of him losing it.
