Re: River Valley Job

The district has to take the allegation seriously so I figure he is on paid administrative leave until the investigation finds out what is going on. Until then the assistants will have to take up the slack. If he is cleared he will be back teaching and coaching. This would of been turned over the p...

Re: River Valley Job

RV needs to be very careful here. Even if nothing can be “proven”, do you really want these allegations surrounding your school? You can’t turn a blind eye ever again on this stuff. On the other hand, if someone made up a story and absolutely nothing happened then he should be cleared in the public...

Re: Vinton County 2024

Who’s your suggestion then? Somebody internal I assume. Games? Phillips? Mendes? Garth Fry? Long? Hire? Games should be the front runner. Phillips would be a good hire too. My son told me has heard Fry is going to apply. Could be interesting. Long is interesting. Seems to know ball, but he’s young....

The flow seems to alternate... early on the flow went toward GA, then in the 2010s, at least for a little bit, the bleeding stopped.

Are you saying Justy is the coach?
Coach Burleson was one of the people doing the interviewing.

So that’s a NO.

Well, it won’t be me.

Re: GA football

Money talks I guess 💰👎 Absolutely not. All you do is flap your gums about things you’ve hardly scratched the surface on. Coach Carter took the reigns of a promising team and turned them into a winning football unit. Coach Carter is extremely dedicated to his work, and loves his guys. Gallia runs of...

Re: Minford Football

If the guy has a teaching degree, and he’s the right guy for the job, you do whatever you can do to get him there. If that means moving some teachers around to get him into the right area, do it. If that means hiring him as a floating sub, do it. If that means upsetting the teachers association, wh...

Re: Minford Football

Many people are throwing out this $70k figure and talking about creating a job. I don’t think public schools work this way in 2023. That $70k in salary probably costs the district another $50k in insurance and STRS retirement. Also depending on Minford’s negotiated agreement, any “created” job migh...

Re: Minford Football

What’s an extra teacher cost? At most $70,000 of an 8 figure budget? If he’s a great football coach, it’s the best community relations tool you can have. It’s worth it if he’s worth it. Find a way. “Community relations tool…” means nothing unless he can build a football team that sells more game ti...

I think those guys who were on here bashing the previous coach and even some of the kids should be REQUIRED to coach this year just so they can see what its like.

The connections that Pendleton made having already played D1 would go a lot farther toward that kind of move than coaching at any HS.

“According to the Ohio School Board Associaton, BOE members should not be part of ab=nying hiring committees other than the superintendent.”

Re: Head Coaches or not?
