Don't think anyone said ideal, only good and great. Which it is if true. Very, very few schools get their ideal candidate.

Compared to the last few coaches at CC his record looks pretty good.

How many coaches have a winning playoff record? I think if people truly looked at a coach's playoff record they would be surprised. You have to get to the 3rd round of the playoffs on a pretty regular basis to have a winning record.

Yes a guy who is pretty young and has turned two programs around in environments that aren't very conducive to having football success should be a great hire for the Camels. Not to mention his experience from winning environments in Highschool and college.

Fair enough...didn't think of it like that.

Very true! If he is the hire, Campbell County programs have some fantastic coaches.

I agree 100%

AS for turning Holmes around, the 6 class system done that my friends.

So you don't think Holmes is any better the last 4 years than they were the 4-6 years before Lickert got there?

Notwithstanding, the level of football and discipline at Holmes has improved under his direction.

What a ridiculous statement. If you have spent any amount of time around the Holmes program (which you obviously have not) you would readily see the transformation that has occured there. As a Holmes fan, I personally hope this rumor is not true, but if it is, I wish continued success to a fine young coach. Coaching is about so much more than wins and losses and Coach Lickert epitomizes that every day.

There is a lot more to turning a team around than what the record shows at the end of the year. Steve is doing a fantastic job building excitement at Holmes. Traditionally, basketball has been more of a focus for a lot of the athletes that walk through Holmes High School. Since Steve has taken over, interest has grown significantly and the overall product on the field has drastically improved as has the overall positives that Steve has brought to the program off the field. Holmes now has a disciplined and fundamentally sound football team. Yes, Holmes, just like every other school in the state, has benefited from 6 classes when post season play is discussed. To say that the Holmes program is just a product of 6 classes is ridiculous. If you can’t see the overwhelming and obvious positives that have taken place in the Holmes football program the past few years then I don’t know what you’re looking at.

 

Steve has had similar success at Dayton and as a previous poster said his background in both High School and College has provided him with the exact experience I would hire in a football coach. IF Steve is the next coach at Campbell County I hope CCHS embraces him and supports his ideas for the future of there program. They have the potential to have a lot of success!

Not knocking the guy but an improved schedule and a chance to win is what spear headed part of this change. Good luck to the coach and Holmes.

Bingo! Steve has had success on and off the field. When he decides to move on Holmes will be better than before he got there.
