Justin would be crazy to come back to this hornets nest.  They actually support him there.  He don’t have to beg for  help.  And he has 2 of the best athletes in Ky back. They will be back to the big Dance and we will still be dancing with Dave, Guy, Tommy, Jeremy, Wayne, Steve, Paul, Greg and Jody.

On the surface, I tend to agree. It's hard to fathom how and why he would end up back here.However, guys like Haddix are wired differently than most of us. Guys like him are super competitive in every fiber of their being. They are always looking for a greater challenge. He has nothing left to prove at Boyle. What's the challenge? Drop to 3A and win a trio of titles against CAL?   He came so close to getting Corbin over the hump and breaking a near four decade-long drought. He didn't finish what he wanted to here.  He will be nothing more than another great coach in a line of great coaches at Boyle, all of whom won multiple championships. If he came back and won a title at Corbin he would not be just another great coach but a town Hero, a Messiah, of sorts. There is a large contingent of people in Corbin who love Justin and would love to have him back. There is no challenge left at Boyle. The challenge is fifty miles away, in a town that hasn't seen a title since the invention of the CD player.  Thomas E. Greer will never coach another game here, imo.  He had his one shining moment chance --- an undefeated season and beating his arch nemesis.  He failed. He should walk off into the sunset and enjoy the rest of his life away from the gridiron.  Now, getting the good ol' boys you mentioned in your post to step out of the way will be the big challenge.
