I don’t think the weight room got shut down because of a no interview, I think maybe everyone is reading to much into the fact that weight lifting has been cancelled (including myself) Could be just another reason why it was cancelled, sometimes things come up in life as well, these guys have families too.

Hopefully everything works out and everyone gets their fair shake, their is still time for the others to have interviews as well, I hope everyone that applied gets an interview and it’s done the proper way, kids deserve to know, applicants do too. I’m happy with whoever they decide to hire, sometimes it’s nice to get input for the outside as well, not always but I don’t think it hurts to have a little input from the outside. Levi and cooper both have a ton of support, that amount of support has to mean something in my opinion, tells me exactly what kind of men they are, they should definitely be considered.

I understand the issue, I just hope they can all get together and resolve it, it just sucks that someone is upset. I hate it for everyone.

Very unfortunate, To personal I believe, it happens. Hopefully everyone gets together and works this out.

Rumblings heating up, can’t confirm so I’m gonna keep it to myself, but I’m pretty sure this job search is over. Also weight lifting has been cancelled for what it’s worth.

They can make the hire now, expect to hear something tomorrow now because they have beat them in replies ??? 500? Let’s go for 1K lol.

That’s pretty much what I said in my post, I didn’t say it was guaranteed to happen, all I said is it could happen, either way, this really isn’t about Garrard County, Boyle County or anyone else but Lincoln, Goodluck to Garrard, and I hope they compete and win some big games, and do big things! anybody heard anything new this morning about the coaching search?

Explain.

Yes, Josh is Marty’s son.

Was about to say this, took the words right out of my mouth, always seems to be about matchups and 2 it’s high school football, sometimes kids just don’t show up to play, at the end of the day they are still kids.

By all means go ahead, that’s not for me or anyone else to decide, it’s a kid and parent decision , just like ours was. I was just defending the fact that Garrards program isn’t so much better then Lincoln’s, it will be for 3 years but after that, unless they change some things I don’t see it being better then Lincoln.

Never said that, just don’t expect Garrard to playing in one either! So unless kids are leaving for academics or something not offered by their previous school system then I don’t get the fuss.

Didn’t come here for basketball, or any sport for that matter, came for academics. ?‍♂️Unlike most I care about education more then I ever will sports, because maybe 1 out of 100 (and those are good odds) kids will actually go pro In ALL surrounding counties. We have been very pleased with the direction academics is going at LC.

They had somewhere in the neighborhood of 14 applicants, picked the top 4 for interviews.

Scenters, Jaggers both have interest as well, from what I was told. @theguru

Why are we making this about the coaching staff? I’ve never once said anything about the coaching staff, all I said was I just don’t get leaving LC for GC like it’s that big of a difference in winning, because it’s not, if you want to go win state your going the wrong direction. Go down 150 instead of up 27.

I’m not sure what your getting at here. You names off 4 other kids, all I’m saying is it’s going to be tough sledding, is the ceiling there winning district or competing for state titles? Why would you leave LC to be in the same situation minus just winning district, their is a pretty good possibility that Boyle drops down to 3A again, Catholic will probably follow suit in 2023, then if their is a district realignment your going to sit here and tell me they are going to compete for it? Not gonna happen. Don’t get to comfortable with the district you have right now, it could change soon, and then you have one really good year (this year) and poof all the talk is gone about competing for their district or even competing for state titles, even if you win your district and it all stays as is, you have to deal with Paducah Tilghman, Belfry, LaRue County and cutter Boley, etown, their is a lot of really good teams in 3A I’m not sure Garrard will have the talent to compete year in and year out, next year will be there year to do something special if they can make it all work, and again I hope they do, but to sit here and downplay LC like their is no chance in winning is kinda ridiculous with the same thing could very easily happen to Garrard after this year.

This!!! 100% agree!!

I feel like Bell County is more mental then anything, Bell County is still a tough out and will continue to be, for every one athlete Garrard may have, Bell will have 3 or 4 to counter it. They do nothing but win, still a tall task in my opinion, but only time will tell. I wish them nothing but luck and I hope they do win the district and honestly would love to see them win a championship in something other then marching band, nothing against marching band but it’s not a sport, Garrard County has zero state titles in any sport, they need to win something eventually.

Do we really feel like they will compete for their district? Bell County is still there and Rockcastle is always tough as well, you have one kid right now, and he’s special, but their are 11 kids on the field. I’m not sold that they will compete, Log Mountain is tough and Hilton will have a gameplan ready for them, this situation reminds me a lot of Robinson at Western Hills, one kid can’t win you every game. Need to get the pieces around him to make a run at district and state championship. It’s possible I’m not saying it’s not, I just don’t really see why you’d leave LC for GC. ?‍♂️

They may be just following what they know, so much uncertainty right now, but I would advise against them transferring, not sure what they are going to get there that they won’t get @ LC other then the coaching staff that they are used too. Mind boggling to me, but to each their own they have to do what’s best for their kids, we certainly did at my house so I get it.

Thank you! I just kept hearing conflicting reports, so I was just trying to confirm, thanks!

I want to say That none of them have been interviewed yet, but I can’t confirm that, I know their have been phone calls but I’m not sure any of the top 4 has had an “official” interview. I’ve heard the only 4 in consideration is Levi Rogers Craig Foley Josh Jaggers Mark Scenters can anyone confirm that to be true?

Yep, will be a stand alone, I think they mentioned they had 42,000,000 if they spent their entire budget, the plan is over 82,000,000 so it will be a while, it will happen in phases, board meeting next week will prioritize what starts first, that’s including all the school upgrades as well, so they may start there before starting the new sports facilities

Terry Yeast would be a good hire, knows the program and has been around for years! All the names listed above are big names as well, not sure they could go wrong with any of those guys.
