In my opinion, there is no chance of Sheppard ever being the coach at North. People outside of Laurel County doesn't realize that he's not thought very highly of as a coach at North. I know the North middle parents couldn't stand him. (fair or not.) I'd say Brad is back next year, but if he does leave, I'd put my money on a former 14th region coach that has really close ties to North. He's a really good coach and person, and was thought to have the North job before giving it to Brad.
