So the last 5 years were forward thinking? I think the whole Ginger Webb thingy may have already taken place and now it’s time for Highlands to move forward as the mirror is crystal clear.

Thx, I better stay out of that arena and let the folks in charge announce when they are ready to announce. It’s only fair to all of those applying and working on this.

Correct, just don’t which Monday or Tuesday yet. I hope they take their time.

The good news is this will all be over in the morning. My source tells me that a special board meeting will take place and an announcement will be made most probably Monday or Tuesday.

So they have to revert to a garbage can to get ecited? What’s wrong with putting the Highlands uniform on. Quite obvious that they have forgotten who they represent. It’s a gimmick imo, the program is real and speaks for itself and doesn’t need a gimmick , jmo. Charlie Barr retired before half these kids were even born, are you sure we are talking about the same guy?

Or vice versa...😂

Congrats to the Beechies... love seeing NKY being represented.

I don’t have a problem with the Tin Can as I see it as something each team wants to do that distinguishes them from the other teams. Usually one looks for something when those before you has something better than you. At Highlands you must at least achieve excellence before you revert to a gimmick to try and feel special about yourself. I guess everyone sets there own goals.

The auction part is despicable if true but let’s hope not. Yes, thank God that chapter is over.

Actually it really is a joke that we are even going through this right now. Another poster put it out there when he said Dale handed over the keys to the Ferrari and someone crashed it driving it to the Sweetheart dance, Well it went something like that😂

I actually have someone very close to me that is keeping me posted on the process. His family actually has 2 members on the committee and I will trust what he is telling me about who the next coach will be.

I just don’t know why some folks just won’t move on. Highlands and the DONORS appreciate the service but it just hasn’t worked out. Thanks

Unfortunately that’s because they never knew any better. Sorry just calling it as it is. Sad that those kids you speak of didn’t have the opportunity that was offered to me and my sons. That’s not what Highlands is about and they deserve better and they will get better. Sorry friend, that ship has sailed, move on.

Let’s be clear as this is obviously aimed at me. Nobody said the committee voice and opinion isn’t valued. And no it’s not a waste of time, these folks on this committee are trying to fix the train wreck that the previous staff left behind. My God my friend, this is Highlands and we will knock the windows out to make sure the committee hires the right coach and staff.

Noted but wrong.

I highly doubt whether a teaching position is open or not is relevant to this hire. It helps but not a deal breaker imo.

Again, let’s be clear on this subject, this group of people are not “the hiring committee” but are simply doing interviews, collecting information and recommending candidates.

At the end of the day I hope that this process is not rushed. Time to put a coach in place immediately is NOT of the essence in my opinion. This process only happens only so often and now is not the time to make a hasty decision or hire. This is a very high profile position which will affect the community, the school district, the financial future of sports at Highlands and more importantly the student athletes. Rebuilding the program with the correct hire will take a minimum 3 to 4 years in my opinion. Could the right coach do it sooner? Sure they can and this imo is why Highlands is such a sought after job because the foundation and the house has already been built, it just needs some remodeling. Patience if a virtue.

The "selection" committee doesn't have the authority to hire or have the final say despite what some may think. The "head coach search committee" will conduct the interviews and vetting process and will deliver their recommendations to the higher ups. This shall be interesting to say the least.

Whooo, that gives Highlands some hope with Wolfe since he won’t be going to Trinity.

I thought Trinity was from the Louisville/Indiana area? 😂

I just realized the pizza was burning.

Why? Isn’t there enough qualified coaches in Ky? Seems that just because T is looking for a new coach that everyone isn’t going to just quit their good jobs to come running. Please help me understand?

Wrong thread.

Wow!!! Congrats BG on the win. I now have even bigger concerns with head to head matchup results.
