Stranger things have happened I guess but this would be a horrible mistake.
I can’t imagine going from Kroger Field every year to the two biggest games being Floyd Central and Betsy Layne.

 If he leaves, it is apparent, to me, he has talked to Mac and Mac doesn’t plan on retiring in the next 5 years. 


Plan could be to get head coaching experience and be completely ready when Pikeville comes calling. 

Just my 2 cents.

I thought about that myself. Get a few years of HC experience while turning Pburg back around.

I get what you and 2000 are saying, but still not buying in. 

The best place for Sullivan to prepare to be HC at Pikeville is at Pikeville. Not Prestonsburg, Phelps, Jenkins or anywhere else.
Why come back in 5 years (your all's # not mine) and not know any of the players or parents etc and basically start from scratch? And think about all the big names who would want the Pikeville job when it comes open. Sorry but I won't be trying to steal Prestonsburg's HC. 

In my mind 2 reasons he would make the move to Prestonsburg - more money (substantially more, very doubtful), and his wife wants him to (who knows). 

I'm sticking with my opinion and we will revisit this thread - would be an all-time bad career blunder to leave Pikeville for Prestonsburg and won't happen.
