The football position is not good right now with the way the BOE operates. All it takes is one parent complaint and the coach is gone. They are going through interviews and it's pointless because no matter who the AD, principal, and superintendent recommends, the BOE may not like the potential candidate and will have to start the process all over again.

Can you name a good football position currently? I'm assuming you are referring to the board , parents , admin etc.
Just within the ovc. Name a position that's had the same coach for more than 5 yrs.

? 1 or 2 I think. Peake is the only school I know maybe Ironton? Let that set in for a bit.

This isn't an OVC thread. This is Coal Grove.
Personally, if I were new to the area, I would send my kids to Chesapeake. Andy Clark and Ryan Davis are class act in my opinion.

Great way to keep a team together is by good food. Hope football can get back to the field without the off field crap.

He went to Coal Grove his junior and senior years. Was the quarterback his senior year in 2009. I think he previously was on the Wayne (WV) coaching staff. Not sure where else.
