luther 10 Report Share Posted January 21, 2008 Maybe not. There may be someone and a "surprise" that your good source doesn't know about. Because, I hear that the job has been offered to someone with more experienced than Cregger and I also know of someone else that is interested.

trublue 939 Report Share Posted January 22, 2008 [ QUOTE ] What other schools are looking for a new Head Football Coach? [/ QUOTE ] Here's the GA list: List: Georgia's head football coaching vacancies By TODD HOLCOMB The Atlanta Journal-Constitution Published on: 01/21/08 By my count, there have been 51 openings for head coaches among GHSA schools since the season ended, and only nine have been filled officially. A few others have a choice in mind but haven't made an announcement. Not all vacancies are official, either. Since the GHSA and the state board of education doesn't keeps track of this, any list of job openings is unofficial. JOBS FILLED Allatoona: Hired Gary Varner to start program. Bainbridge: Ed Pilcher replaced Ricky Woods. Calvary Day: Mark Stroud replaced Tim Blackston. Coffee: Ken Eldridge replaced Jerry Odom. Greenbrier: Brian Smith replaced Scott Chadwick. Heritage-Ringgold: Hired Tim James to start program. Mays: Dominic Callaway replaced Jesse Solomon. Morrow: Larry Mortonson replaced Daryl Steward. Upson-Lee: Tommy Watson replaced Eddie Payne. JOBS OPEN: Archer (new school)Gwinnett Avondale (Mark Adams) Berrien (Ross New) Cedar Shoals (Scott Wilkins) Central Carrollton (Randy Padgett) Central Gwinnett (Dennis Roland) Chapel Hill (Mike Bedosky) Collins Hill (Larry Sherrill) Gwinnett Colquitt County (Tim Cokely) Cross Keys (Douglas Blackwell) Dodge County (Greg Robinson) Duluth (Richard Gillespie) Gwinnett Eagle's Landing (Bob Stinchcomb) Forest Park (Demarco Mitchell) Franklin County (Danny Durham) Hancock Central (Wilbert Simmons) Houston County (George Collins) Howard (New school in Macon) Jeff Davis (Andy Rykard) Jones County (Bill Young) Kell (Irv Sigler) Kendrick (Ahmad Tinker) Lakeside-DeKalb (Greg Lester) Lamar County (Calvin Scandrett) Lambert (New school in Cumming) Lassiter (Greg Dirst) McEachern (Jimmy Dorsey) Mount Paran (New team) Mountain View (New school in Gwinnett) North Atlanta (Chris Thomas) Northview (Don Savage) Oconee County (Nick Saltaformaggio) Pelham (Phillip Richards) Pope (Bob Swank) Rabun County (Steve Patterson) Rockdale County (William Johnson) Thomas County Central (Ed Pilcher) Toombs County (Mark Stroud) Tri-Cities (Morris Starr) Trion (Tom Bryant) Walker (Frank Cuda) Wayne County (Craig Davis) — Research by Steve Slay, Georgia High School Historians Association and Todd Holcomb, Atlanta Journal-Constitution • And is being a head coach all it’s cracked up to be? Consider this quote to the Grand Rapids Press from former Kell coach Irv Sigler, who said 14-hour days were common and ultimately not worth it for him: “Coaching down here [in Georgia] is a much different proposition. Our program [Kell] isn’t funded by the school, so the coaches are responsible for everything … from A to Z, and that includes cutting fields and striping fields. I have a great school and I love my kids and assistant coaches, but it got to the point where I felt I couldn’t do that and be a good husband and father at the same time.†Sigler has returned to coach a school in Michigan, where the job description is more reasonable, he said.

Cornholio 10 Report Share Posted January 22, 2008 I feel that Luther and fat Back would be the ones to turn TV around.

trublue 939 Report Share Posted January 25, 2008 He didn't say coaches in other states didn't have the same issues....he was speaking first hand of what he knew about in GA. Now, obviously, by his quote about MI, they do it a different way up there. The only states that are mentioned in his quote are GA and MI. I spoke w/a booster today about a local county's football program and this particular high school had a TD Club annual budget last year of $300,000. The county does not contribute to this....it is strictly the boosters fund raising and all monies go toward the football program. I won't go into all that they do with the monies, but, the county only pays for a certain number of coaches ( 7, I believe) and this program has around 20 and their salaries are supplemented by the TD boosters club. I think most southern states(I'm not speaking for the whole US) and their FB coaches are in the same boat with the amount of duties they have and money raising issues. BTW, the only reason the article was posted was in case some coaches in that area might have been interested in any of the vacancies.
