The Central job would be a better job if terms of the opportunity to win ballgames imo.  The schedule for CA is brutal.  If Coach John Moore isn't selected at Central, it would be a big mistake by their administration.

I’m surprised they didn’t move forward with John Moore. He seemed to do a pretty dang good job in a quick manner, but I’m just an outsider with not much knowledge. 
 

If Bobby Sharp really is about to get this job I hope that means Columbia is ready to hand him the keys and let him build this thing his way. They need continuity and strong commitment is important moving forward.

This shouldn't even be close. CA just fired their all-time winning coach, not because he forgot how to coach, but because they are now playing against other private schools who recruit better than them.  CA has no problem recruiting in softball or basketball but when it comes to football, not happening.  Doesn't matter who they hire.  If they don't recruit like the teams they are playing, they are not going to be competitive. They won 2 games in 2020 and 3 games in 2021.

As far as Central goes, talent is no issue.  Discipline and Structure is. They got that this year and finished 7-4 with a staff that was put together 30 days before the first game. If rumors are true about who they are hiring, it may be the best hire in the State, not just in Columbia!

    • Winfree's senior year was the season she needed to secure more college interest. That opportunity was taken away from her. A lot of false assumptions can be made about what happened and what the options are. Unfortunately, the former coach and administration did not allow Winfree to have due process. A lawsuit was filed for a reason, and it will run its course by people who conduct discovery and take depositions. Unless the parties settle out of court, a lot of the pertinent issues will come to the public surface. I wrote about many of the issues here: https://bdnewsletter.news/2023/11/17/grounds-for-investigation-and-suspension/ I interviewed Winfree after she was dismissed from the team and wrote about it here: https://bdnewsletter.news/2023/12/01/a-new-interview-with-sable-winfree/ Winfree had been on teams in Warren County since the fourth grade and never been dismissed from a team. The real questions are why was Winfree dismissed from the team, and why the administration backed a coach whom they did not rehire.
    • What is the hold up here? I have not heard anything in weeks. Are they waiting for the right person or is something else going on?
    • Per usual, we'll be hard to beat in the regular season, I'm sure. It's the post season that I'm more worried about, specifically the coaches. Maybe they'll be able to make some adjustments that will keep the momentum in our favor. How's Grays recovery coming along?
    • Something don’t add up here a college coach is not going to turn away a good player they need just because they didn’t get along with their high school coach 
    • RR, you might remember. Didn’t someone hide the kicking shoe that game? It seems I remember we had missed a kick the week before, and we needed all the points we could get. We thought we had a better chance going for two, so $?&@$ hid the shoe after the first miss that game. No one on our sideline looked for it very hard.
