Del do you have a number of people that applied. I know you named 3 Casey, Tommy and 1 out of the school system. We know of 2 that wont be hired(Mac and Sam.). That's a total of 5. I though there would be more than that. Seems low and if that all that applied why the lack of interest.

I know of 4 names that have been interviewed. The 3 you named and Tim Taylor. The last word I had was the actual applications turned in were less than 10. So not as much interest as first thought. I'll ask for a total number at COB Thursday. I'll also ask for a projected timetable for a decision. Again...we'll see. I'm not involved in the process and haven't had much time to check on it. The newspaper isn't my day job.

Tim Taylor, or Jason Evans would be my choice for what it is worth.  I would apply, but I am under contract in Florida until June.  Either way that would be a good staff if you got both.  Jason is a good coach, it is wrong how he was done at Marion.  Tim is a good solid guy as well.  I think with either of those hires you could build a program.

[DelTavian]

Jason did not and will not apply. He's very interested in building the softball program and I think very content as an assistant. I assume it depends on who gets hired if he will continue to be an assistant. I hope he does.

 

possum the other "outside" candidate I know of I would guess you would approve of as well.

 

I'd also point out that the 2 internal candidates have solid reasons to consider them. Tommy has 12 or 13 years of experience and worked with 7 different head coach tenures. (Pickett and Brewer had 2 each of those.) Casey also has high school experience and took a middle school program that doesn't even have a middle school...and was also in shambles and turned them into an undefeated team. (with the help of really good assistants.)
