ysoangry Posted March 11, 2014 Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 Is David Barger (former coach at Lake County and currently the Defensive Coordinator at Giles County) one of the applicants?I haven't heard but a few names of the interested coaches. I'll ask around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dtownfan364 Posted March 11, 2014 Report Share Posted March 11, 2014 Do any of the other applicants have Chad's experience as an offensive and defensive coordinator? Doubt it. Do any of the other applicants have Chad's success. Seriously doubt it. Do any of them have the ability to teach what he can teach. Ha. Do any of them have the players and community behind them like he does? See a pattern here? Unless your administration is just wanting to be stubborn and purposely not give the job to him then this should have already been taken care of. I'm sure the rest of the district wants you guys to screw this one up but we don't. We love the competition here in Huntingdon. We want you guys to have good/great players with the best coach so when we beat you there is no doubt we beat a great team with a great coach. No excuses. Nice to see some support from Huntingdon. Interestingly enough one of your fans is the major setback for Coach Chad Hodge at this point. I know there are a few in every crowd (we've got several ). If Chad doesn't get the job it's not for lack of support & trying from the majority of the community & players. Most people have written letters of recommendation to the administration. We need him at Dresden as a head coach, role model & most importantly as a teacher. His sideline antics can all be attributed to his care & concern for his players. It's called passion. If a coach doesn't have it you need to find a new one in my opinion. GO LIONS!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ysoangry Posted March 18, 2014 Report Share Posted March 18, 2014 Anyone hearing anything about our coaching position? Been awfully quiet..... Keep hearing the Gleason connection is front runner. You would think, they should be announcing who the man is pretty soon. Heard Chuck say on the radio they would have a coach in time for spring practice. Hurry up Chuckles!!!!!!

lionsupport Posted March 19, 2014 Report Share Posted March 19, 2014 Has anybody heard anything about when a new coach will be announced? This is dragging on too long. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FootballFan1970 Posted March 19, 2014 Report Share Posted March 19, 2014 I heard the interviews aren't until next week. So you are looking at another 2 weeks I bet. Your community still fully behind Hodge? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FootballFan1970 Posted March 19, 2014 Report Share Posted March 19, 2014 I would have thought with the whole community behind Chad that the administration would have simply sat down with him already and found out if they could get everything to work out. And if they couldnt that they would then start looking at other people interested in the job. Sounds like that would have saved a ton of time. The new coach is losing a ton of time with the players with this process. It could end up hurting you guys this fall. No matter though, would still lose to us.

But that is also one reason I am wondering if Chad is even being considered for the job because that would have made more sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wingman10 Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 thought they would have a new coach by now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ysoangry Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 Its amazing the rumors that I'm hearing. Last name night I heard Chuck West's youngest son applied, coach Hewitt's son and also Joe gaddis. The last one was very comical. The other two I've heard from very reliable sources that neither teachers sons applied. Did hear a lake county coach, a utm assistant along with union city assistant, Gleason coach, and Chad so I only know six of fifteen. This is taking too da-n long!!!!

FootballFan1970 Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 I'm betting your principal will be smart and hire Chad. There's no way they can get a better coach or teacher than him. It would be such a bad decision to let him get away. Maybe they are just trying to figure out teaching positions and classes that will make it all work. Who are you guys scrimmaging this spring?

34ME Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 West will hire his own son before Hodge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ysoangry Posted March 20, 2014 Report Share Posted March 20, 2014 West will hire his own son before Hodge.His son doesn't want the job. I've talked to him about it. Although he would do a very good job if he did put in for it. Kids are to young right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
