How could you possibly know this?

Doomsday scenario for BHS. County actually does approve Jones hire...no former assistants agree to coach, but all stay on staff as teachers at BHS. There are no positions to offer and next year's football staff has ZERO coaches present in the building. The former assistants, all coaching elsewhere, have marvelous seasons. The parents, noticeably upset by the fact that no coaches are around their boys during the school day, demand a coaching change after 1 year. Process starts all over again.

BHS spending all of this time to make this decision to only have it blocked by downtown is the most Bearden thing to ever Bearden

Will the county approve the recommendation?

This is the reason I have said all along that out of state or internal will be the next HC.

Guess so. I know two interviewed yesterday. 2 more were supposed to go today, but I think one was unavailable. And there are two that go tomorrow. New coach still revealed by Friday.

And there are two tomorrow.

There are interviews tomorrow too

Isn't a booster club member on the interview committee?

Scott Cummings has a better chance than Rusty

They are probably spending time getting their resumes and playbooks in order, as well as fielding interviews from other places. You know, since the forum made it clear that new coaches don't keep the "subpar" previous coaches on staff. I don't know you, or what you do for work, but imagine your boss leaves and you are told the new hire is going to let you go. How hard are you working from now until then? I suspect you likely start applying any/everywhere, and start formulating a loose plan for your future. The smart thing for this panel/committee or whatever to do would have been to name an interim coach during the search to ensure that financials, basic operations, and weight training were maintained. Yet another example of this administration muffing the punt.

Most BHS Football players are going on their 5th week without working out. It sounds like this "panel" isn't going to be ready to make a hire until, at the very earliest, Monday 12/13, with school being out the 17th. These players will have gone 9 weeks without the opportunity for organized off-season workouts. You are CRAZY if you do not think this will impact next season. They will spend spring and summer just getting back what they lost sitting idle. Nick Saban himself couldn't win with soft, weak, out of shape players. "Getting it right" seems like they may be burying themselves alive just to prove they can handle a shovel. This decision should have been made already and the only ones suffering are the players.

It will not be BT, or RB, or SC, or JJ. It will be an internal hire, or an experienced HC from out of state.

This community cares about playing time more than they do winning. If the scenario that @FHSAlum12 mentions plays out, the parents likely won't care if the new hire ensures everyone gets playing time.

Just another reminder that I think it will be an internal or out of state hire.
