Where did Parrett go and why?

Who's running these men out???? The AD? The Principal? The Superintendent?

No one is running anyone out.

 

Between 1978 and 2002 Owsley County had just 3 coaches...Charlie Turner, Larry Sparks, and Tim Bobrowski. There was continuity in the program.

But since 2002 coaches have left for various reasons...to coach at larger schools, principal jobs, or in the case of Parrett, to be an assistant coach at a school which is only 12 miles from his home.

There has been other problems with some coaching changes, which I won't go into for sensitive reasons, but Owsley County will be OK.

Who will they look to next season? Are there any names being thrown around?

I don't know the answer to that. But it is is really late in the year to have to be looking for a new coach. I don't know how long Coach Parrett has been thinking about making this move...sometimes things just happen and decisions are made at the spur of the moment. It's my understanding he wanted a position closer to his home, and North Laurel is only 12 miles away.

Exactly Professor. Owsley always has been a very supportive community of basketball and always will be but the past couple years have been rough. Coachs have left due to numerous reason but none that are intersystem related. The people in this program support the program to its fullest because at a small school like Owsley everything is easier when the basketball team is winning. I've even heard the Sheriff say that it makes his job easier(kinda like crime rate goes down).

 

From hearsay I have hear that some very promising prospects have already showed interest in the job. I won't name any names because it is just hearsay but some nice names are being put on the table.

 

Listening from inside the gym I understand that the oppurtunity that arose was not planned for Coach Parrett ,it just happens to pop up and put him in a better situation for his coaching career and personal life for the near future. I wish Coach Parrett could of stayed because I feel he showed a promising future but I support him on his decision becasue I feel that he has made the right choice for himself, basketball and family.

I'm hearing the same thing......maybe its for sure by now but if not then wont be long from what I hear.

I think Noble definitely deserves a chance somewhere. His name has been rumored for several jobs around the 14th region over the past few years. I wish him the best if he decides to take this job.

I have heard same name,suppose to be a done deal,and yes he does need to have a chance,and he will do well i am sure,Great with young kids and is a winner!!Good Luck Mr Noble........

Doug Noble, who has coached at Sebastian Middle School in Breathitt County for several years, will be announced in a few days as the new coach at Owsley County.

I don't have a link, but I talked to an administrator in the district this morning, so it's solid.
