Dude should have stuck it out one season.

Here is LaSalle (OH) football schedule. Trinity was considered D1 (1400 boys) and Dupont Manual was D2 (950 boys). One would think this would be easy to do.

Great season. This team seems like they have great chemistry and character. I question some playcalling. How do you slow down a pass rush? Not one quick WR screen or RB screen called the entire game (unless I was in the bathroom). Defense played extremely well. Run defense was fantastic. Zac seemed to be pass-happy the whole game.

Great hire.

Coach has won alot of football games! Congrats on a great career.

Yes.

Nick Rice is a principle in the Boone District. He would be a solid choice. I hardly doubt he would take the pay cut. Derek Bosse would be the ideal choice but I have heard he is not interested.

So he doesn't go to games?

True. Most coaches and administrators are usually two different personality types. On one hand, administrators want a coach to come in, take the job, be a disciplinarian, transform boys into men, be father figures, be counselors, win football games, etc. and on the other hand, fail to support the coach while he does those things.

26 coaches have resigned as of today. Over 10% of KY's football coaches have resigned. This is not a good trend for the high school football in KY.

GC's basketball team has been just as successful at the football program. If Cronin made that money, then the basketball coach ought to be in the top 10, too. I would argue he makes about $100,000 to $150,000.

This is a GREAT job. Independence is one of the largest communities in NKY. SK has indoor and outdoor facilities, average roster size of 75-90 kids, frosh roster of 30-50 kids, and a good booster organization. I think this program has done extremely well over the last 10-15 years. According to your logic, a job is not good unless it is Trinity or X. SK may not ever win a state championship but that does not make it a bad job. I'd expect some very qualified coaches to apply. Good luck to SK.

65 yard Dixie run td called back while up 6 to 0.

Marksberry did a fantastic job at SK. If leaving, it is on his terms. Took SK from a BAD program to a very good one.

It's a lack of talent.

I am not disagreeing with anyone. I am all for the paying a higher salary for the best candidate. I just don't know how you justify this with the local tax payers. I would argue a band director works with more kids than anyone. What are they getting paid? Coaches are underpaid and have way more influence over a school or community. Most administrators would not want to admit that.

How do you justify this? All head coaches of boys and girls sports are working 52 weeks a year for their programs. The big three sports should be pretty equal IMO. So HHS is going to pay the running back coach or defensive line coach more than the head baseball coach? Head Football Coach: $16,000 Head Basketball Coach: $8276 Head Baseball Coach: $4966 Five assistant football coaches: $6698

Kids (athletes) need to be in school. In Louisville alone, there over 500 students unaccounted for in the Jefferson county school district. This means that over 500 kids have not attended school one day in person or online. This has had a tremendous impact.on our young people, way more than covid itself.

A school like HHS should have a HC, Offensive Coordinator, QB coach, RB coach, WR coach, Defensive Coordinator, DL coach, DB coach and LB coach. Some of the mentioned coaches will have JV responsibilities. Coordinators usually coach a position. Then they need a frosh staff. On any Friday Night, you will see 10-20 staff and support members on any sideline. If Coach Weinrich continues teaching at HHS, I hardly doubt there will be teaching vacancies. It is a great school and I would guess that most teachers there will retire there. The new coach, more than likely, will have to rely on paraprofessionals. Quality coaches are not just sitting around waiting for a phone call. Quality coaches are already coaching. If a local coach is hired, he may have connections. If it is an out of town hire, this will be a challenge for the new coach.

This game needs to be talked about more.

Have you followed Dixie over the years? Are you serious? They were 1-9 a few years ago.

CCH defensive coordinator is a big part of their recent success. Give credit where credit is due.

So GRC, Tates Creek, and Milford is better than Highlands? Schedules are usually made a yr or 2 in advance. Looks like they play tough schedule to me.

Talent is not there like it use to be.

They average over 25 points a game. They have the leading passer in NKY. I don't think play calling is the issue. They have nice skill players but lack the horses upfront. I hardly doubt the staff has packed it in. Coach Turner and Woolley are two very respected coaches.
