What schools are still searching for a head coach? Can any compile a list of those schools with former coaches and incoming coaches if they have been filled?

Graves County just hired Lance Gregory, the defensive coordinator at John Hardin. He replaces Mike Rogers, who is now the head coach at Warren Central.

South Laurel and Trimble County need a head coach.

Clinton Co. needs a coach.

The word is that Webster Co hired Matt Kettler from East Jessamine, can anyone confirm?

As far as I know, Harrison Co. is still looking for a coach.

Forgot about Harrison County. Can't think of any others.

Clinton Co. needs a coach.

 

The Fighting Dale Hollower's need a new man?

The word is that Webster Co hired Matt Kettler from East Jessamine, can anyone confirm?

 

I talked to Coach Kettler, this is in fact true.

He's walking into a pretty tough situation. Webster's program is just about at rock-bottom right now.

Don't know Coach Kettler but wish him more luck than any other coach in the state. He's now in charge of a program, that according to some/many, was about to shut down football. As far as this state has come in the past twenty years, football-wise; it would be about sinful to let a program close. So congratulations to Coach Kettler for stepping up and taking on this challenge and thank you for keeping football alive in one nook of the Commonwealth.

Clinton Co. has a new Coach. Someone from Tenn.

Why did they want to shut it down? They were a Class AA semifinalist a few years back and lost a nail-biter to Corbin.

Let me say a word about Webster. I had a good friend who applied for the job. He went and visited with the administration, toured the school, and then returned for a second visit. The weightroom is a cracker box in a dingy dark room under the bleachers in the gym. They have equipment that had to be made by a former assistants friend. The practice field is about 600 yards away from the school across a highway, and the game field is up on a hill. So the three things the football team needs is in 3 different locations. There is a football field house shell. I say shell because construction began on it around 2003 and it is not complete yet and probably never will be. The administration seems supportive but cannot get any help from the Superintendent's office. Getting the board to hire assistants is hard and the pay is terrible. The program must raise money for their own transportation, so any fundraisors go to pay for buses not for new equipment or stuff for the players. I have heard rumors that the board may make the teams start paying a % of the electric bill for using the field lights for practices and games. From what i have heard Webster might be the worst situation in the state. The feeder system is in disarray. They used to have a team for each elementary school, but now they only have one team in the entire county. Instead of building numbers and getting kids out they are limiting themselves with 1 team. I give Coach Kettler applause for standing up and trying to take this thing and move it in the right direction, but I fear Urban Meyer or Pete Carol would struggle at Webster. If things don't change rumors of them shutting down the program my come true. Needless to say my buddy withdrew his name because he wasn't willing to risk his career at a place like that.
