If the principal does have the final say so, look for the coach to be someone that the assistants will be able to control. Then, if a good group looks to be forming, a good ole boy will get the coach ran off and take it over. The new coach whoever it maybe will be nothing more than a scapegoat for the former coaches failures. Clay will never let someone from anywhere other than here lead them to anything great. How many coaches, in the major sports, have been from somewhere other than Clay? Stepp in football and Spurlock in basketball, are the only two that come to mind. Stepp never had a chance and Marcum got Spurlocks job one year away from back to back regional titles. Whoever accepts this job, I hope they did their research if they are not from here for their own sake.
