Columbia Central

[Shootmore]

Coach Graves has resigned in Columbia to take a job in Alabama. This would be a great situation for somebody. Athletes, talent and community support. Great place for Boys basketball. Lots of talent returning to the program.

 

Any ideas/opinions of who the next coach will be?

[THE SQUAD]

Should be a great job.I know it used to be. Why so much turnover there now then.I noticed it's the 5th coaching change in 14 years.

Columbia needs to take their time and find an experience coach. Lions should always contend for the top spot

Any names being mentioned?

Colley was one of the best

They need another Lake Kelly type.

As of right now, the AD (Clayborne) is taking the team to camp. The search is on. I think they are going to make sure they get the right hire!!!???

Ive heard that there have been more than 50 applications put in, dont know if its true or not...

 

Ive also heard some names but im not going to mention them on here..

Should get a good one. Good program and should always compete in their district.

I've been out of the loop for awhile, but I don't think they've had 5 coaching changes since I graduated before the earth's crust had cooled.

 

Clayborne, Kelly, Colley and Graves since the early 80's. Who am I missing?

[greenwheel]

Hugh Watson replaced Lake Kelley.

I knew you'd know greenwheel!

 

Still, at least 3 of those coaches retired from coaching basketball from Central. They didn't leave for other coaching jobs. It's a good job with alot of tradition.
