LP Job opening

[Uncle Pig]

La Porte just posted for their head football job. Either it’s a misprint or something that’s probably never been done at the 6A level, but one of the job requirements is teaching 2 classes...a 6A head football coach being asked to teach 2 classes!! Unbelievable!

Doesn’t matter if class is beer drinking and snuff dipping 101, the head football coach doesn’t need to be teaching a class..IMO

[oldschool2]

Posting a 6A football job where the HFC has to teach 2 classes is guaranteed to .. well .. just exactly how good of a coach (experienced winner) are they expecting to get?  I'm sure coaches from all over the state will be lined up to run a 6A football program and a grade book all at the same time.. (eyes rolled)

Come on LaPorte.. try not to SeTx so hard.

He must have gotten tired of teaching 2 classes, just a guess though.

[5GallonBucket]

He was the hc when I was there in 05.

Who’d apply to be a 6A Head Football Coach and all that goes with it while only making $10,000 over base pay and teaching 2 classes?

I would assume that the coach will be one of the lowest paid 6A Head Football Coaches, while being the only one teaching in the Greater Houston Area. 

My two cents

Crazy to see that at the 6A level. I understand a small 2A or something having to do that, but not 6A Houston area.

That ^^ is how you get a 29-year-old Special Teams Coordinator as a 6A Head Coach.  Good job LP.

Or the Superintendent, or whoever is doing the hiring, already has his person in mind and is trying to lessen the applicant pool to justify the hire in the end.

I've seen that stunt pulled off before!

I was thinking that as well..but it wouldn't make sense to let someone on LaRue's staff to take over.  6A programs that aren't "successful" usually bring in from outside the box.  If someone comes from out of the school they don't want any of the current staff.  I wouldn't think anyway..  This whole things seems kind of crazy to me.

You all are on spot in your assumptions on this matter.

[PlayActionPass]

Worst 6A job posting EVER.

But, it is a perfect posting if you already know who you want to hire and you are trying to keep quality applicants away. Whole lot easier to justify a questionable hire if the competition is slim and none.

Teaching 2 "periods" a day...

1.Varsity/J.V. athletes period.

Sure all athletics have an athletic period, but we are talking about the head FOOTBALL coach.

So it would make sense if they listed his teaching assignment as the 2 football periods.
