Davidson Academy

@cbg - you obviously have no knowledge of this situation. Private schools depend/rely on donors and help from other sources many times and Davidson is no different. I expect them to get a high quality hire. No matter what, it will be an upgrade over the joke that transpired this previous season from what I am told. Getting stuck with a coach who was so obviously in over his head had to be rough for players, parents and the school as a whole. I know they were put in a tough spot with a resignation right before the season but I bet they would re-think the process of choosing who they chose if they had it to do over.

@QuickStrike - You seem to be confident in having a lot of information you are unwilling to share or drop a name. Who will get this job? When? I assume you are guessing like anyone else outside of the selection process. Throw something out if you have "connections".

Cfa you came out of nowhere with some pretty strong opinions I sure hope for you and your kids sake the joke doesn't get job. The facts are 3 wins And 4th toughest schedule in div 2-a, not sure how many guys would have won more games with 6 weeks to game 1. I hope Da gets a quality coach but it won't because they are writing him a big check most privates need help and get help financially but not for coaching salaries-there are only a couple Ensworths and BAs.

I have no dog in this hunt and could really care less who they hire so it will have zero impact on my kids. I do know they won 3 games in what you call a tough schedule but losing by an average of 40+ to 3 region foes is inexcusable. I believe my postman could have gotten those 3 wins and kept the other games closer.

What is the hold up here? My guess is they are waiting on a certain asst coach to take the job or turn them down before they move on to the next guy.

Dang CFA to not have a dog in the fight you have an awfully strong opinion.  I actually dont have a dog in the fight either just interested in who they hire.  I saw them on film a few times and yes they had an extremely tough schedule.  Nick Saban couldnt take that group of kids and beat BGA, FRA, DCA, or Knox Webb so CFA not sure you know what you are talking about.  Private schools do not have unlimited funds and most do not have a booster club that will fork out some outrageous money either.  Find a guy that knows football and will love and care about kids and you have yourself a winner.

Possibly and at least makes sense on why it is taking so long.

QS what do you know ?

Jonathan Quinn or Paul Wade. Highly unlikely Wade will make the journey back from Ensworth so the job is Quinn's if Wade doesn't get the keys to the school handed to him.

Agreed Probably not wade so who is Quinn?

Jonathan Quinn is the head coach at Mid America Nazarene University. He has been there as the head coach since 2009. Why would he want to leave that? He hasn't lived here in years.

If he is from here maybe family.
