Guy Morriss/Boyle County???

Featured Replies

Supply and demand. No matter how much money he has squirrelled away or how many other sources of income he has, I don't think we can judge him for setting his price. He's a lot more qualified than the "average coach". If you want to hire him, it stands to reason you will have to pay him accordingly, regardless of his current financial situation.

 

And even at that, for somebody with his coaching background, 100k is rock bottom. Whether or not Boyle wants to pay that price, or whether or not they can work out a legitimate way to pay it remains to be seen I guess.

I agree.

 

However, there are 25 current high school coaches I would offer $100K to before I would consider Morriss.

 

I bet EKU hasn't even considered Morriss and they won't.

 

Morriss had 1 successful year as a head coach. He had an NFL QB at that time running his offense. Morriss tried to squeeze some cash out of UK after the one season and they didn't bite......Rich Brooks is still here and Morriss wants to Coach HS football in a town where he owns property....my how convenient for everyone.

 

Morriss is now going to be working with 14 years olds, currently the youngest he deals with are 19 and he red shirts most of those.

 

This will be a circus in the end as Morriss bolts from Boyle Co for a bigger paycheck next year.

I agree with you. Which makes me think now that Boyle Co. can get a coach as good as Morris but without the demands and circus.

Only thing I can say is why was the superintendent so firm on his statements that the booster club wasn't involved, when now it 'appears' that they are? Obviously, I do not know this for a fact, but it looks like they are indeed involved. Hhmm. What next?

Again this information did not come from a Boyle County School Offical! There are many, and I mean "Many" different stories going around right now. Untill I hear Burkich or Thomas say it, I will not put any stock in it. I've herd the same story as Super along with some others. It's appearant that right now the BC people are not talking, but how in the world does everybody else know so much information on this subject. Because it's all speculation and hearsay right now.

 

I also was told from someone that Guy Morriss was going to ask Buddy Ryan to handle the defense for Boyle, he does live close by.

I agree....here in Jefferson Co...there are 3-4 that I would take over Morriss.

This is my biggest concern.

I agree.

Thank you for your professional opinion. We will surely take it under advisement.

If you happen to be right, then I guess we'll have to do what we are trying to do now, find the right person to lead the program.

 

Of course with all the impact playing transfers that will now come to Boyle County and a booster club with blank checks we may be able to move up to 6A and give Trinity and St. X a run for their money, get national rankings and a reality show on MTV or ESPN.

Perhaps the booster club will be able to raise enough cash to fund ;)academic scholarships;) so that Boyle can compete at the highest level.:D

I heard Buddy Ryan was going to be the next head coach at Mercer Co! :lol: :lol: :lol: Just kidding!!!!

I think if Morris goes to Boyle he will soon see that coaching at the high school level is more challenging than at the college level. There is just not as much help in assistants and the amount of athletes is, well you know the rest.
