Yes...it is official.

Should know who the LC coach is officially by the end of the week.

I heard interviews were being conducted this week.

Anyone know who is the front runner for the job?

Interviews were completed on Wed, site base met today, should have a coach in place tomorrow. I heard there were only 2 interviewed.

Who were they?

I know one was Josh Hughes, the other I believe was Keith Prater.

Info on both?

Coach Hughes is the current varsity baseball coach, Keith Prater is a LC alum from late 90's, was working for MSU a couple of years ago, haven't seen him in a while. Also nephew of past coach Corky Prater.

If Hughes gets the football job I hope Prater gets the baseball job, he would be a heck of a baseball coach.

Keith Prater is a good guy, and would do a good job at whatever he chooses to do.

It doesn't take a bunch of former college players to make a good coaching staff. I know guys that played at Florida State and similar schools, another that coached at Auburn as a GA many years ago. I have seen them fail miserably in high school coaching. You need a guy that kids respect and can get players to come out and stay out. A guy that has shown in the past that he can develop athletes and promote a program and his players. A guy that will surround himself with intelligent and enthusiastic coaches who will work together for the good of the program and the players. A guy that accentuates the positive aspects of the situation and overcomes the negative. That's the kind of guy who can turn a program around, be competitive, and produce W's on Friday nights.

 

Very well said!!
