Please. I think we all understand that it takes alot to pursue a dream. Why don't I think he'll stay? History tends to repeat itself. If you look at his history, it's clear that Davis's dream is to be a college coach. Last time I checked, Central wasn't a college. Maybe his dreams changed. Sounds like you'd know, but I can tell from the other posts that Davis <gridiron13> doesn't want any personal stuff out there, so I guess we won't.
None of these guys has been at one place his whole career and that reference is upsetting. Gossett is local. We know what he can do and we know how people think of him. We've heard all about Davis's accomplishments thanks to these posts. Have you taken the time to talk to parents in Georgia or look at stats? I have. Derrick has consistently put up strong numbers no matter whether he was offensive or defensive coordinator. He uses the same kids that the other side of the ball does and makes them perform. The parents and kids that I've talked to are desperate not to lose him <as a coach or teacher> but flat out said that they'd be glad because he deserves better than what he's got. Theyre surprised they've held onto him for this long. I have to tell you that I'm not completely put off by somebody who keeps plugging away to try to make something better. Maybe what we should want is somebody who has taken the time and put in the effort to try to build something. I'd like to have somebody with that kind of determination leading my kid.
Anyway, I don't want to sound confrontational either, just blunt and factual. And the fact is, no matter what the reason, he has less classroom experience than Gossett or Derrick. The other fact is that the official word is out-Gossett isn't even in the running. It's between Davis and Derrick. I think either choice would be good. They've both done very different but very admirable things with their careers and they BOTH deserve the fanfare.
