Coach Riffe.....I believe he was with Gary when he was first at Greenup....Now he at Fairview with Nate.

Things sure are quiet at GC concerning the Head football coach.:sssh:

And they will stay that way at least until next week is over....

Have heard that Herb Conley, former coach at Ashland might be interested in the job. His record speaks for itself. Always successful whether coaching or playing.

He is interested.

GREAT CHOICE

Absolutely a solid choice for the next GC coach if they can snag a stellar coach like Conley on top of all of this he is a great person. Conley would instantly give the program a ton of class and would earn GC some much needed respect from fellow coaches, players, and programs as a whole.

We are getting excited about all the folks that are becoming interested in the position. Coach Conley would be and excellent choice, the application pool is going to be a good one for our admin to select from I do believe.

How old is Conley?

Is age truly a factor, or are you just wondering??? I don't know how old Conley is, if someone knows fill us in.

He graduated in 1958 so Im guessing he is around 70. I think that could be a factor dont you?

It could be, but if he surrounds himself with a good staff it may not be as big a factor as one may think. Herb has plenty of contacts, I am sure he would bring in plenty of "youngblood" as well. Good luck in the search, but Conley certainly intrigues me as a choice.

I agree also, It just scares me that an older coach might not be able to relate to todays highschoolers.

I can understand that, but if surrounds himself with some younger talented position coaches I think it can work. Conley could set the foundation for the program and have his successor on board who could step in to countinue the forthcoming success. I've seen this work other places and I would hope this could work at GC.

General you and I may disagree in basketball, but I think we are on the same page in football.:thumb:
