His family seems to have settled in the Boyle County community very nicely. They bought a new home there that they would have to sell. Their kids would have change schools again. Its not like college where someone could throw unlimited amounts of money at him. As far as new challenges, I would think it is a huge challenge to keep a program at the same level as the Boyle County program is at year after year.

I think Mills from Corbin makes a big push for the Whitley job. He son just transferred from Indiana State to The Cumberlands. I also think Rhymer is an interesting choice.

Haddix lobbied hard for a D1 college OC job last year.  He had been all but promised one, but the offer never came.  That coach is on the hotseat now, so I doubt if Haddix would take a chance of going there now if offered.
Tell me more! I have to know. You must be pretty close to Justin Haddix and college coaches! 
From what I know, he has 3 young children and don’t need the money. Why would someone want to stay on the road and coach college football when you are a top tier High School program, less than 5 miles from work! I’ll take your word for it, but I just don’t understand.


Because almost every D1 college coach is making 300 to 500 thousand a year now minimum some north of a million. I get financially the Haddix's are in pretty good shape but I don't know anyone that doesn't want to do better that cares and I also know a lot of high school coach would love to eventually be the head coach of a huge D-1 program in front of 50,000 to 100,000 fans on Saturday working for millions a season.
