OK I'm confused???
Everyone on this list has HC experience except Stallings. She got the job from her AAU experience. I don't know much, but is that the same as HS experience? From what I can tell, AAU teams get the best players from several team (an All-Star Team).. not much practice. Just play games and next year you need a better guard go recruit one. HS coaches play the hand dealt and develop supporting players. If you look at Stallings HS experience... Central High?? It seems that they only had 6 players at the end of the season and had 1 win season in 10yrs. Wow I think the other names on the list were a lot better.. Did they not want it or is she the best for the job... Cause I have seen Coach Young coach and he does an awesome job and is a great man. Coach Lambert has a proven track record..
With that being said and the comments about parents in Seymour is she the only one that would take the job? I have also heard someone from Maryville's boys team interviewed... was that the one that coached at Maryville College or the one from the State Championship team??
Couple of things: First AAU experience is probably better than high school experience I have done and still do both. Level of competition is much better and you still play the hand your dealt cause you do not get every kid you go after.
Second, If you think you can do what Brandi and Jason did in that district be my guest. You have any idea what the situation was down there really? Ask any coach what theythink about the job that was done there especially the last 2 years. Also, Brandi played just as much of a part in the turnaround as Jason because she had free reign to do what she wanted as far as coaching goes, and not to mention the fact she has workrd with the likes of Lynn Burkey, Matt Insell, Rick Insell, and Gene Huskey. Seymour is getting a Very Good young Coach.
Next, Coach Wright was never offered the job, and would have not taken it more than likely. Coach Young turned the job down. Bart Walker never even got an interview. JD Lambert good guy, but what stands out to you that makes him such a hot commodity as a head coach. Oh, it must be because he has experience and she doesn't. I would take her anyday of the week over him if that were my rwo choices, and if you go back and check the records they beat JD Lamberts Halls teams both times with 6 kids.
