Warren County Coach steps down

[Rade Butcher]

The "400" game winner is out of the picture. WC going with someone locally.

Hard to believe that WC can continuously be this stupid.  If what I am hearing is indeed true, whoever made this decision is a MORON.  There were legitimate coaches interested in the job and they have chosen to hire locally.  My sympathy to the players at WC.

AD made decision on both boys and girls coaches.

Just remember the one's in charge here have made the best choice. Even though they had a State Championship coach that has averaged well over 20 wins a year to apply. Yeah they needed to keep it local just like they did in football.

not sure you can blame todd wilmore. rumor has it he pushed for the coach who is living a couple of counties away. i think he was "influenced" to hire locally. the last few coaches were not local so the board wanted to keep it close. guess you can't blame them. from what i know about todd he is a good guy.

I think you have to blame anyone who stands by and lets stupidity run rampant!  Again, WHO is in control?  AD, Director of Schools, Board Member(s)?  Would someone please say "I am in charge and I made this decision."

Wonder how many of the players that quit and went to Boyd will now be back? I'm saying the Morales kid, the Judkins kid and maybe one more

I find it odd that so many in this thread are talking about how they had this homerun "400 game winner" hire available yet no names are mentioned. Who was this homerun hire that was available?

 

This local hire will prove to be very good for WC. The guy can flat out coach and he knows the landscape. The kids will play hard and be competitive immediately.

I heard that there were several good coaches that applied and interviewed. This is not my neck of the woods so I am unfamiliar with the WC hire. They kept it local and that is their right to do so as they are in charge of the county.

I do know one of the coaches that applied and he is solid (lives a couple counties away), he would have been a great hire but I am sure that he will bounce back and find a good job.

From what I have heard, these 2 hires were the AD's top choice and not the boards. The board was letting the AD do his job.

[captnoname]

Not what I heard, I heard that the Board had made the job more "complicated"

[DCTIGERFAN]

Who did they hire?
