I’m waiting for the quirky riddle all sports forums use instead of just spilling the beans. 

[PlayActionPass]

Yes, the Purple and Gold bird of Prey will fly south when the night is Grey and the Orange and Black, King of the Jungle will own the Tundra.

[PlayActionPass]

Any "names" associated with this one yet?

I will be interested to see what surfaces here. Open 2 years in a row.

When does it close? How many have applied?

[PlayActionPass]

Crickets?

[dillonpanthers]

Have they interviewed?

[PlayActionPass]

I don't think they have started interviews yet.

[dillonpanthers]

Seems like it's been open awhile. Maybe spring break slowed them down

I'm pretty sure there were some other factors that have slowed the process down. It just closed on Friday.

Gotcha

Evidence?

The debacle of their basketball team for one. Also I know two people who've worked in admin over there and have heard stories from them. I'll just say this too, from an outsiders perspective, someone will pick up this job but there may be a reason as to why there aren't many applicants.

Unfortunately you're correct....What has transpired since Barbay left is a absolute embarrassment.  If you ever wanted to see a blue print of how to kill a program look no further than Coldspring...It's a sh!t show plain and simple.  Who the heck hires a head coach with a 5-34 record only to see him quit less than a year later.  Unbelievable

Must be why a couple of their players have taken their talents elsewhere in Polk County

I saw what he had to coach as well, great talent and I knew at the beginning of the season they were going to make some noise but talent doesn't make up for a lack of mental toughness....and several of those kids had none.

[PdaddyBball]

Barbay was successful there. Yes. He probably had great assistants and a good DC as well. Is that staff still there? Odds are no. I don’t know anything about what’s going on in Coldspring but whoever is next needs to be able to bring in some help with him. Otherwise the problem will perpetuate. A good head man can only do so much. 

[CardinalBacker]

Coldspring is a good example to counter the guys who say that athletic talent is substantially more important than coaching. 

[Cowboys1981]

Are they hiring tonight?

[PlayActionPass]

Yes, I think they hired last night.
