I heard over the weekend that Baldwin is out at Paintsville. I haven't confirmed this, but was told the job has been posted.
If this is true some names for replacing him...Coach Trimble (Les) or Coach Keeton from in-house. I think either would be good. Anyone else heard anything? What about other names that would be a good fit.

The word on the street is Baldwin quit the girls so he could take the boys job when Bill Mike Runyon re-retires here in a few weeks.

I heard that Baldwin was just ready to give it up. He's been coaching for a while now and took a new job within the school system. I also don't look for BMR to retire. I could be wrong, but I know Baldwin isn't interested in the boys job.
Anyone heard anything else? Have they made the hire yet?
Whomever gets the job will get a talented young team and an excellent opportunity. I know they intend to have a new coach in place by June 1.
Correction: May 1st, should happen pretty quick.
I heard yesterday that this job would be in-house only due to budget cuts and no teaching jobs available. If so, that will exclude some very capable candidates. Seems like a done deal already, Paintsville admin. just blowing smoke acting like they are considering everyone, when the job already belongs to Les Trimble. Remember, you heard it here first.

I heard Trimble as well.
Who from outside has applied?
Trimble would be a good choice for girls or boys team has plenty of experience and if not mistaken won a regional title at JC

He didn't win a regional title, but I agree he would be a good pick for the girls.
Another good option for the coaching position would be Matt Ratliff. Matt is a great Dad and a great man who wasn't given a fair chance as the Boys coach...
He has a house full of girls so he comes with his own feeder system...:biglmao:
