Warren Coaching Job

[bigblue52]

Don't think anyone is denying the revolving door at head coach is bad and not sustainable for a program. With that being said, the days of going 0-10 with majority of those games being running clocks are gone. We just went 7-3 with a league title (don't care that it is only 4 teams). Let's celebrate the players accomplishments while Harold gets a coach in here who we all hope will be here for longer than 3 seasons.

This is a fair and good take. A lot of Warren’s turnover has been circumstantial and outside of their control (as has been shared here). Kimes would probably still be there if the PHS job never opened…but he and his family are royalty there and the draw home was too strong. Day had a chance to go back to his alma mater from what I understand. The hires have all been good. And I think they will get another good one this time around.

I don’t think anyone is suggesting the hires haven’t been good. People are wondering is this the best thing for the program long term to continue to have a revolving door? That’s where the conversation starts and ends.
WE ALL want the same thing a successful football program is healthy for our community..
We all have different opinions how that is achieved. I personally don’t care how or why people leave.
I just want someone who is a good coach and a great person at Warren that values being a warrior for a long period of time and I don’t think that’s to much to ask for.
I know several youth parents and this is a concern for the them as their kids get older.
It’s a valid concern and I know Steve will hire absolutely the best canidate I just hope it’s someone who truly embodies being a Warrior and won’t leave the first chance they get.

Well said. This is how the majority of the community feels I would say if you took a poll. I would certainly agree that continuity is crucial in order to build and sustain a program and the culture within it. Hard to get kids out and have numbers grow when there is a new coach coming in every three years.

Yep, and like I said it’s not anyone’s intention for this to happen but it just does when you hire good coaches.
We have such a special community that wants so bad for us to have a proud football tradition. I believe we will hire a guy who wants to stay, and will be a winner at Warren.

I get that. I’m more or less saying that those who have left recently have done so for different reasons and not all necessarily just to jump to something else. In this case, past results don’t necessarily predict future results. Just because there is a pattern doesn’t make it a foregone conclusion the next person leaves in 3 years.

Should hire Welch again. He turned Belpre around.

[Logangrad]

Just curious as the rumors swirl around Logan's new hire (meaning they haven't announced anything official yet) but are Warren fans sad to see him go or what is the vibe like?

(15-17) in 3 years with some really talented players. 1-2 vs Logan. Good Luck!

Anyone know who the candidates are yet ??

Anyone know who the candidates are yet ??

I’ve heard Welsh’s name thrown around. Isn’t he a Warren guy? What was his record last time he was there? Apparently he’s responsible for the success of the Fort Frye offense. So maybe he can get it done at Warren too.

I didn’t think Welsh was leaving Belpre ?

But it’s been said that their offense was at its best when he was calling the shots.

You don’t think Warren is a good enough job for him?

Well considering he’s at belpre, I’d say Warren would be upgrade. So no that’s not what I am thinking

He never called the shots lol. He was a rb coach only because his kid was on the team.

Well now we know Schob is not getting the Warren job !!
