8 fellas sitting in front of the board right now.

There were more but 3 of them were hired at Gallia County schools....

Carter was picked up by Gallia
Morrow was picked up by South Gallia
Cooper was picked up by RV

We have an ole' boy from the Vinton County area that seems to be the favorite right now, the other 2 likely hires is an assistant with the past staff and a coach of another sport a the school... Hopefully decision is made in coming weeks.
As a Vinton county native and big VC fan I hope Yates gets the job at Wellston. I remember those rough years when our program was ran by Yates

Yea, I bet you do. Me too honestly. But the best thing they could do is get ole "Dutch" back. He was a "proven winner." Had those kids running through brick walls, is what they were saying back then.

No. No Dutch at VC. Although I’m sure he wishes he was. VC is about to run off what they did in the 90’s.

Not so fast my friend, VC’s run will last about as long as it takes to get through Dundas… blink and it’s already in the rear view mirror. :mrgreen:

Who does VC have coming back and what does their schedule look like ? VC had some great players in the 90s, that’s a big statement.

I think if he wished he was still helping at Vc then he would be helping at Vc. I believe all the old staff was offered to stay on. And Vc would be better if he did, seeing that he did a really good job while at Vc. Dundas needs to quit living in the 90’s, that was 30 years ago. It was a good run but we weren’t dominating by any means. Hell, our best team in school history, ‘93, didn’t even win the league.

Wellston will get someone that wants to be there. Hopefully the want is a long term want and the coach gets the support a coach needs.

That's how I remember it. Had the game in hand, and then for some reason punted the ball to Jermon Jackson. Big mistake.

Yea, they got cheated off the field. Aiding the runner, which had never been called against them, was called three times. Also a blatantly obvious fumble recovery by VC was blown dead and Nelsonville was given the ball. I was there as a neutral observer so I saw it all. But still, VC did lose that game. I think if it were played anywhere else they would have won by a wide margin, but that's my opinion.

Jason and Justin Gale were the only other two that were gonna have anything for Jason Synder and Andy Booth. Talk about some talent on the field. Sheesh. Anyways. That was 30+yes ago ans awesome tradition.

But back onto the Wellston Coach thread haha
