anyone heard anything? timeline for interviews?

Bump...... Well let's go ahead and do it..... Would Josh Jaggers be a possibility here??? It seems every year he was rumored for about 10 openings that came up so let's just go ahead and throw it out there. I know that with the new superintendent eTown and some other central office personnel Josh Jagger's is extremely tight. Will that lead to him being interested in this job? Will that lead to eTown reaching out to him? I have heard through the grapevine there are some issues at Lincoln county at the district level. I will say again this is speculation and hearsay which is what this whole form is about anyway lol

Have hear the Superintendent and Associate Super made a trip to central KY to watch a play off game on thanksgiving weekend or the weekend before. For the first time ever, the superintendent and associate aren't home grown individuals and will go out and find some quality applicants and hire the best not the most popular. IMO the hire at MCHS needs to be an established head coach who has experience rebuilding a program, changing the culture, and keeping the parents' and their opinons at bay.

I have heard that there is a Trojan up 31W is eyeing this job.... would the Etown faithful welcome this alum home?

The head coach you speak of was a Mayfield and SEMO alum named Jim Shelton. He had a great staff - his DC / Strength Coach was a former OVC head coach and championship winning Coach Paul Brewester. It was 1995 when they played St. X. Coach Shelton also had another very successful run in 1999 with a kid at QB by the name of Gary Rockney. Plenty of money, great location and community, but the kids there today are not built like the offensive and defensive lines you are referencing. Marshall played ball control in the bone and stiff defense. If the Marshals during the Shelton Era could score 21, they were probably gonna win!

Nonsense.... if you play the cupcakes and beat the brakes off of them, then they don't line up to play you again...especially if they are rebuilding like the ones you mentioned..... as someone who has built a schedule or 2, it is way easier to say what they should have done from behind the keyboard than being in the coach's office doing it. With that said..... I agree with thunderbuddies!

I am an alum of MCHS from the late 90s. Marshall is a tough place to win. The parents are a big problem. Many of the guys I played with are now dads and let's say they sound like their daddys with unrealistic views of what it takes to win. the key to success is in a place like marshall is discipline, toughness, and administration support. I hope that Coach Mason will guide the process and change the support from administration for the program. The key to success at marshall is a coach who will tell the parents to sit down shut up and an admin that will back them and allow the coach to do the necessary work to rebuild a program.

Elizabethtown will be open correct?

I have heard that the Marshall County job will be open

Rick Fisher! it is all Rick Fisher's fault. I think maybe it has something to do with the loss to murray in the 90s that led to Murrays state championship appearance vs beachwood that Murray won but ended in crazy controversy. beachwood took the safety and the player threw the ball up in the air in the endzone and murray caught the ball with time expiring..... Beachwood got the W and Murray got a Faux Title and lots of complaining.

Any more info on this situation? I hate it for the kids when they lose games because of an administrative mistake!

is there any information or a post about this happening with NH?

After watching the Eagles friday I was impressed! I look for good things to happen in Btown for the eagles this year! I know that there was some shuffling, and I expect that who ever takes over the program for next year will be in a place with plenty of support, great facilities and a culture of winning! Great things in the future!

Made the trip to bardstown to see this one. ( I am a Marshall Co Alum from the 90s) All I can say is that Marshall Co is going to have a very LONG season. I am not sure there are 2 wins on the schedule. The Marshals had great success under Jim Shelton and Mike Lawson. Those days seem very far removed from the current situation.

ayone got a score from Cville?

There are several local coaches who have expressed interest in this job in the past. You could always bring back Coach Brown's Dad to fill the roll for the year. This will be very interesting to watch. Couple of Assistants over at Central Hardin who may be interested as well.

Jacob Russell is the new head coach of Campbellsville University Football Program https://campbellsvilletigers.com/news/2023/3/14/jacob-russell-campbellsville-university-alum-is-next-head-coach-for-fighting-tiger-football.aspx

New Coach Announced 4pm today can watch on the CU Youtube page....that's all the info we got!

I will say this on Levis, and I think a lot of people are dogging him for performance 22 season vs 21 season. I think Levis has a great nfl upside and potential. He has good IQ and Work ethic. Most of 22 he was injured, and he didn't have an NFL calibur OC. The relationship between a QB and OC determines a great deal of a QBs success. I think we all know that Philosophy, System, and Relationships MATTER! As a Colts fan I would be thrilled if they picked up Levis. I think he is much more durable than Young (look at TUA) and Stroud will be gone before Colts Pick.

anyone got any info on this opening and the process?

Who are the coaches that will be the perfect fit for this position????

Coach Peach followed Coach Finley and had some success then the dark times began with Coach Deaton. Coach Thomas followed Deaton

I think Peach maybe out of the game until the Campbellsville Univ job comes open when Coach Thomas Retires.

Why wouldn't Bryan Cross be considered for this opening? He has an extensive coaching resume!

How many players does it take for a basketball program to be really good / competitive? 5, 6, 7??? Football it takes 11 to field the team right? this is simple math. a small school can be dominant with 7 players in basketball. Football doesn't allow for that. That is why most of the time bigger schools are more dominant than smaller schools.....simple numbers game. smaller teams on the field of competition allows for smaller schools to be more competitve.
