News from Red Devil Lane...

 

Kidwell to the boys team with help from former Russell standout Sean Horne who played with Cassity for Ron Reed. Cassity will coach the girls. He was wing man for the Devils and had about 250 three point attempts his senior year, so look for the Lady Devils to play an up tempo game with the threes flying. I think you will see some new faces on the girls team this year.

Is this official?

If its official, Big congrats from GC to Merle. You have earned this shot and I know you will take full advantage of it.

This is making the Girls team sound likes the minor league team for Russell B-Ball coaches.

Don't think the boys job posting closes until late this week. But the rumor mill is running full steam and atleast some of this may be correct ?

If this is true congrats to Merle. If this is true for the girls program I know of two players who will be transfering.

What about Sutton? Horne pink slipped a teacher today at the middle school to make room for Sutton.

That is the most absurd thing I have ever heard. Also, I find it hard to believe that

 

1) Sean Horne would have time to be an assistant boys basketball coach while he is the head principal of Russell Middle School

 

2) Russell's superintendent would change policy so drastically (currently, Russell administrators are not allowed to coach athletic sports) as to not only allow an assistant principal to coach (which I personally have nothing against) but also a head principal.

Some of you may be closer to the situation than I am. But I am pretty sure Sutton is staying at greeup as Frailey's top assis. Cassidy may not be a done deal either. You can't hire a coach until the job is posted and you see who applies

I have a hard time believing any of this stuff either, but I have been around the system long enough to know that you can hire a (coach/teacher/administrator) long before the job has been posted. More times than not, the hiring committee knows EXACTLY who they will hire before things are posted and applications are taken. I guess this would be a good thing if you are the one they want to hire, but it is extremely sad and frustrating for everyone else trying to get a fair shot.
