Open Job: Todd County Central
Todd has improved its facilities. They have improved the feeder program. It wouldn't be a bad job for a coach who wants to build a program.

Will the Reds make the playoffs?
Reds have been playing with house money most of the season. At some point, the come-from-behind wins stop. The only way the Reds make the playoffs is by winning the Central. I don't see that happening.

Open Job: Trigg County
The move up to Class 3A has kicked Trigg in the tail. One playoff win in 10 years. The first thing they have to do is figure out the defensive philosophy. They can't keep giving up 40 points a game to everyone and 60 points to Tilghman every year. The pieces are in place but the new coach needs to get the right people in the right positions

Yes. There are boundaries but kids hop around quite a bit

Soccer team had one win. Football team had one win. Basketball team had no wins. Rough talent cycle going on right now.

Webster County - 2020 Schedule
Webster is now playing Murray on 9/11. No trip to Jackson County.

Open: Madisonville North-Hopkins
Search committee will be put into place and applicants accepted far and wide. Not a lot of love lost between Madisonville and Webster. Newton making the jump would be interesting. Duvall, the girls' coach, is likely to see his name tossed around. A wildcard could be Patrick Sparks.

Will there be high school football this fall?
The target keeps moving. First, youth sports guidelines set down in June didn't apply to the KHSAA, then they did. Schools were going to be allowed to set their own restart guidelines until they weren't. The KHSAA was able pass the guidelines they felt best for resumption of play until they likely won't. The target keeps moving. There has been one COVID death in Kentucky of someone under 30. One. That was an infant that the coroner said died of SIDS. Four counties [Jefferson, Kenton, Fayette, and Warren] account for 46-percent of all of the state's cases. 58 counties account for less than 10-percent, many under 1-percent. The BOE vote was an obvious rural vs urban vote. I think the education community and rural areas of the state are growing tired of the 'one size fits all' approach by the state. That may work for bars, gyms, and large venues. But not all schools are the same. Not all sports facilities are the same. I'm hoping some trust is put into schools and administrators Monday but I'm guessing we had better learn the details of Option #2.

Open Job: Christian County
Last word was they formed a search committee and was taking applications from far and near. Solid group of underclassmen returning so the cupboard is not bare.

Will there be high school football this fall?
High schools are more likely to follow what the pros do because there is no on-location housing issues in high school like in college.
-
Will there be high school football this fall?
This boils down to an insurance issue right? As long as kids are on active rosters, they are still covered by the KHSAA and school insurance until the end of the KHSAA calendar [second week of June]? That's why no one can be at school or wearing a school uniform.

Will there be high school football this fall?
If there ever was a year for the KHSAA to tinker with reducing the playoffs to two teams per district, it's this one. Move the start of the season back a week, keeping everyone's same sequence of games. If they want to see what it looks like financially and competitively to go back to two teams, try it this year.

Open Job: Hickman County
Harris was in the girls All-A Region championship game at Trigg but they lost to Dawson Springs in the championship game.

Lincoln County names Brandon Fisher their new girls basketball coach.
Good coach. He can be abrasive which may explain the inability to lay down roots for a long coaching stay.
-
Open Job: Todd County Central
There is some young talent here, but it's an obvious rebuild job. The 13th District is gradually improving, but Logan County is still the top dog here.

KHSAA Financial Position
Insurance is a biggie. Rental of college facilities for state tournaments is another.

Mark Peach Named Coach at Trigg County
Yes. 1999-2000. His quarterback was Mr. Football Travis Atwell. They lost to Beechwood in the Class A championship in 1999. He was also the head coach at Campbellsville University for two seasons.
