Let's just say the SE situation is a question of politics more than actual production. It's true they had a bad regular season, but you can't build a program by churning the head coaching position over every other year. It's that simple. Let's see what happens at SE's board meeting on 4/24. Probabl...

Chillicothe deadline is 5/12. Will be interesting to see who applies.

I'm hearing Jaren Cox at Huntington. Wouldn't surprise me. On SE, I'm not hearing that the door is 100 percent closed on Slaughter, although I'd be INCREDIBLY surprised as they accepted his "resignation" at the last board meeting. The showing at the board meeting was pretty impressive. Str...

I'm hearing Jaren Cox at Huntington. I've also heard Western is filled, but didn't hear who.

What in the heck is going on in Southeastern? The man wins a district title and I am hearing from my friends in Londonderry way, he got non-renew (axed). The curse of Larry Jordan continues..... :roll: It's a mess, but there was little hope for coach Slaughter when he was hired. He's not a "SE...

Is the Eastern job really open? Hate to see Burdette leave. Good luck to him as he moves on. Guess some of the parents got what they wanted. I predict the next coach won't be as good as John. I hear that only 3 people have applied for the job and their credentials are VERY lacking! Just heard that ...

On the surface, it would appear that Birkhimer would move to QB and Travis Veach would be their leading returning receiver. Defense took some hits with Smith, Chitwood, Williams all graduating.

Trent Olds hired on 2/17, according to school board minutes. Was a coach at Kings Local near Maineville.

School board meetings tonight: Both Metzler (The U) and Alan Preston (Huntington) should be approved to return in 2016.

Why would Unioto's coach resign when he just took the job last year?!

Metzler ABSOLUTELY NOT resigning. He'll be back next year. Book it.

ZT getting Denen is a sneaky good hire.

You ought to see him play baseball...maybe he will do same thing in the spring and play baseball as he did in the fall by playing football. If he does ZT will be just that much better for it, he can flat play. Guess it's possible, because I don't think many people saw it coming when he decided to p...

Chillicothe Gazette.com will run each schools' boys and girls on specific days in the coming weeks. Here's the schedule, which is subject to change.

Wouldn't surprise me if Colton Coy isn't the new Adena HC next season? Currently working on Hollon's staff at PV.

Unioto hired Jeff Metzler to replace Jerry Hudnell, who moved to Florida and picked up a coaching job (Lake Placid HS) right quick.

Jesse Mitchell, former varsity assistant under Eaton and girls assistant last season, is new coach at McClain, replacing retired Joe Wisecup.
Tyler Cassidy, former assistant at Teays Valley, new head coach at Circleville.

And, yes, Barrick is HUGE hire for Eastern Pike.

Anything new here?

Thoughts from Kinnikinnick, or elsewhere, on who will take over the Pioneers coming off a co-league title?
