We are hearing that it could be a 12th region coach that is looking to get into the Lexington area?

Wrong, it will be an assistant from an 11th region team.

Heard it is Ligon.

It's definitely not Ligon.

To the surprise of no one, Mike Allen was named head coach today: http://fieldsnotes.bloginky.com/2010/04/14/bryan-station-names-allen-hoops-coach/

Grayson County will try to slow the game down, spread the floor, penetrate and kick it out to open shooters. A very disciplined team who is dangerous when they are knocking down shots, which they didn't do against Lexington Catholic yesterday. They have no size to speak of so Zollo and company should have their way down low.

He didn't get a bad deal at Russell County. Good basketball coach however.

If he's such a good coach, why did they fire him at Russell County? This does seem like a puzzling hire for Lafayette. You would think one of the most storied programs in the state would have a strong enough pool of candidates that they wouldn't have to hire someone who had been fired from so many jobs.

Of course, all of this is predicated on whether or not the previous posters are correct in saying that he had been fired from those other positions. I know nothing about Coldiron outside what has been posted here.

I take it no one has an idea who is being talked about as his replacement?

So has anybody heard who the frontrunner might be for the job?
