When will they make a decision?

My understanding is that they expect to name a new head coach at the next board meeting, whenever that is.

Whether they need a new one or not that's your opinion, but I have seen HD teams under Slack that could have made playoffs in 22-3A, that were done in the first round in 1A

I have not gotten any response to my request for the list of applicants (and they don't have to for 10 business days) and any folks close to the situation that I have discussed the matter with simply say that everything is very hush hush.

The only thing that is really for certain is that the new coach will be named at the next board meeting

ok, here is the deal. 

There is a difference of opinion between Bob Parker and the majority of the school board.  Parker wants to promote from within to save the salary and relieve some financial strain the district is feeling right now due to the times.  The majority of the school board wants to go ahead and hire Joe Slack away from Hull Daisetta.  That is the hold up.  There are a few candidates that are already there that would be good fits for the job, but the board sees this route as Parker not putting enough emphasis on the football program. The town just recently poured over a million dollars into with the new field and stadium renovation, hence the want to hire a bonafide football coach and not just a place holder to save bucks. 

Interesting to see who will win out.

This is not correct.  I don't know where your getting your info but there is no push for any certain applicant and there is no hold up. The job was posted and since has closed.  The coaches will be interviewed and then offered the job. Their was no dilemma on hiring from within

My source may be bad, and if this is incorrect, I apologize.  My source is very close to the situation and has been dead on in the past.  If the news is correct that Hardin has the chance to land Taylor or Barrier, I hope my source is wrong!  Those two guys would be amazing! I tend to lean Barrier because of success he has already had in the area, but Taylor is a great coach also.  This might get interesting.

It may not be about winning, but when it comes to keeping/getting the job that's what it is about. Small things aside from winning may cause people to want a coach fired but they will blame it on a loss, and if you are a winning coach those small complaints won't even surface so it is in fact about winning.
