One thing I notice on here is the rate at which coaches are hired/fired in Laurel Co. If you look at any good program, they have consistent staffs who coach together for long periods of time and they dont fire/hire based on what happens in 1 or 2 years. as long as there is no consistency you will never succeed. Too much change is not good.

You are exactly right Former.
Im sure SLHS Card knows this, but Laurel county is all about the POLITICS.
Its why they cant keep a good coach. I know personally that its completely up to the parents, one of the down falls to having wealthy contributors to the program.
If the administration would get on the right track and leave it up to the coach theyd be much better off.
Ive seen many times where a much better athlete was passed up on for a horrible kid because of parent and politics.
The first thing they need to do is have 2 DIFFERENT Athletic Directors.
The fact that the same guy is the AD for both schools is ridicolous even if its the same publice school.
This has worked in souths favorite a lot over the years and North usually gets the shaft when it comes to sports. Now that all the talent has cleared out of the from the early 2000's, they have no where to turn.
A lot of things need to change because if not, and Welch tried to do something on his own, theyll have another new coach at South next year.
