Heard yesterday that Lemaster's son-in-law is now teaching at Ashland High School. Is this correct?

From what I've heard, Vincent stepped down due to being elected. I could be wrong, just what I've heard.

Scott Downs - PRP Grant Jackson Jr. - ? (faced him in Wheeling, WVa, Beast of the East Tourney) his dad pitched for the Pirates in the 80's

I understand what you are saying; I also understand that sometimes it's a, "What have you done for me lately" issue. I know you said that 9 times out of 10 the person with the best resume gets the job, however I've known numerous people who have had a better resume that where never hired because of the, "What can you do for me now" mentality. I think that this might have been the case. I've known Dwight for many years and have seen what he can do with players under his tutelage and how they seem to go the extra mile for him. I want only the best for him and his family. The new coach, with whom I've talked, seems ready to take on the challenge. I just hope that he (and those he brought with him) are here for the right reason and not for some other agenda. I wish him the best. Go Cats...

I was in Thibodaux, La last year for the Manning Passing Academy. There were quite a few Kentucky kids there. Any one planning on attending this year?

Yes, but Wal Mart isn't in your district and you don't have them on the schedule two times a year...

The way I look at it, Kidwell, teaching at Russell and coaching at Greenup would be difficult to do, not to mention they are in the same district. I know he has thick skin, but I know for fact that coaching at one high school and teaching at another wares on a person. I'm just thinking about all the crap that that he will have to deal with during the school day.

Any word on Kidwell staying at Russell keeping his teaching position? 'Im just thinking about it being a conflict of interest. Are there any positions at Greenup?

I know someone who taught in one district, their kids played sports in the district in which they lived. She took a position in a totally different district, her kids switched schools and wanted to play in that new district. She was told they would have to sit out according to KHSAA rules. My question is, can an athlete switch districts and still play sports if there is no change of address but the athlete's mother teaches in that district? What are your thoughts?

I've known Jeremy since he was in high school. I wish him all the success possible. I saw, on one of the educational channels the other day, him dropping a couple of 3's against OJ Mayo and company during the Regional Finals in Morehead. Good luck Coach Howell.

I understand that the person that graduates last in medical school is still called doctor. I know Jeremy, he's a great guy; I just want whoever gets the job, knowing that they were "settled" on, (and I mean that with no disrespect) to still give it all they have and do the best that they possibly can. If Jeremy is the one to fill the position, I wish him nothing but the best. I just don't know all of his qualifications.

How long has he been on the staff? What makes him the frontrunner? If it's just because a coach hasn't been named, is that fair to him to be the last option?
