This is an outstanding hire by Carroll County. I believe they have hired one of the up and coming young head coaches. He comes from a football family. He has worked for some really good head coaches. But most importantly everyone I have talked to says to things about Coach Smith. 1. Players love him, he knows how to connect with kids. Also has a players first mentality. 2. He has a football mind. Really knows the game and studies it. 

I'm not sure what type of program Carroll is or has been, but I do think with some time you are going see good things in Carroll County. 

I would say they have to wait to post the job. Reason you are not hearing anything.

I appreciate the info.  Has Coach Smith been named head coach at Carroll County?

I don't know if its official. But based on what I have seen he has been moving as the head coach. 

One more comment about Smith. He is a good young football coach. Has the pedigree to be a successful coach as he has worked for some very good Head Coaches. 

Very Good Hire! Big fan of Coach Stockdale.

Does anyone have any idea here?

And what is going on at Carroll County!?

Joshua Smith was an assistant at Sayre this past season. 

He has had couple of stints at Frankfort as Def. Cord. 

Was at Shelby during their last semi-final run. 

Had a short stint at KSU with Coach John L. Smith 

Played college football at school in North Carolina. Played for Foley at Frankfort.

Jaggers, Lonnie Oldham and one other person being interviewed. Only interviewing 3 out of a pool of 16. 

Hiring Pool lacks diversity. 

Any update on this hirik process? I have heard this weekend that Phillip Hawkins name is being thrown around as possible candidate. 

Congrats to Coach Chandler

Davis has been a name I heard since the job opened.

Any idea when a hire will be made?

Who are some candidates likely to get a look?

Can someone close to what is happening in Shelby maybe shed some light on what might of led to the termination of the coach? Had there been issues in the classroom? Issues on the field. 

Fired from Coaching and Teaching?

What type administration support is there?

Franklin County has to repeat what they did to Bryan Station and that was find a way to run the football and shorten the game while limiting the Rebels possessions. 

Close early but Raceland wears down KCD to win by 21. 

Any word coming out Hazard. I'm hearing former Pikeville assistant is interested in returning to Mountains. 

When was last time Ludlow played for Regional Title? 

I'm pulling for Ludlow. 

But KCD runs the clock. 

Bardstown lacks enough fire power to compete. Flyers roll running clock.

Raceland is an upper tier Class A program and deserve to be mentioned as one. But like Hard Work stated Sayre is in year 4 of Varsity football and building something in Lexington. I wouldn't knock Raceland and I think it is unfair to knock Sayre. Both programs are in different phases of development. 

Raceland is physical and that is number one issue Sayre will have to overcome. I am not sure if Sayre can play 48 minutes in the phonebooth with Raceland. 

As for Sayre they will do a great job scheme wise on offense and put Raceland in some uncomfortable situations. They have some skill kids and a kid at QB that is having a great year. Sayre depth concerns me. 

Raceland travels to Sayre and the Spartans are comfortable at home. This could be the best game in Class A Friday night. 

Sayre is solid. They did what they wanted to do, when they wanted to do it. 

Thought could go either way. Never thought it would be like this. 

There is no excuse for this, coaches and AD's know based on the rules. If you start punishing coaches instead of kids wouldn't be any issues.

Flyers at home throughout the playoffs. Paducah on 4 1/2 bus drive after Turkey day. Flyers win.

Flyers need to clean up their mistakes. Based on the teams in the West, Flyers should end up at Kroger Field.
