Cornholio 10 Report Share Posted March 7, 2008 I heard from somebody in the know today that Mike Compton was already filling his coaching staff with a nice blend of old PH grads and some buddies from RHS and THS. You will see Snake Palmer and Ronnie Davis from RHS; Jerry Smith from THS, former RHS players and current PH coaches Jon Boyd and Brandon Blankenship, and former PH grads and coaches Sanders Henderson and Brian Johnson.

This is not a professional franchise we're talking about here...where the coach can hand-pick who he wants. If that truly IS the situation, then something's not right with the hiring practices at that school. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

get_the_duck 10 Report Share Posted March 8, 2008 do head coaches have a say in who gets hired...yes, at most schools. Do head coaches hand pick everyone they want...no, not at most small schools. Compton will be limited to those already on staff and any teaching openings the school has for next year (which at this point are none). If all of those people mentioned are going to PH, then they are going without teaching positions. If they teach in another district, then they will not receive coaching stipends. And for whomever said Brian Johnson is going back to coach at PH is an idiot (if it was meant seriously). Johnson is the Principal at the technical school, and I seriously doubt he is going to take a pay cut to move back into the class room just so he can be an assistant coach at PH. Also, keep in mind that their isn't a single person in all of Washington County that thinks the Principal has the slightest interest in football.

Grundy10 10 Report Share Posted March 9, 2008 There are "technically" no coaches currently on staff right? Contracts for the 2008-2009 season probably havent been printed OR signed at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
