Just from reading comments it’s seem like at Betsy Layne the parents or fans are not happy no matter who the coach is. Fans wanted the coach out to hire Newsome. Then they wanted Newsome out to hire this new coach. Now they want the new coach out and another new coach. Crazy

Never ending cycle. Derrick won three district titles and they wanted him out.

The common theme?  All of these hires are political hires with buddies putting them into place.  The buddies are happy, but everyone else isn't.  Not enough buddies to field a team eventually.  

Next year's coach?  I don't know if it will be Howard or someone else, but they have half the roster tied up in seniors.  If many leave, it will all depend on what the middle schoolers do coming up.  I don't think there is any guarantee that any of those stay and the returning roster players have quite a few listed that will not compete at the varsity level.

Most of the region loses everything after this season.

I don't think to the same level though.  Pente and Parsons are back.  I could see B. Hall leaving if his dad coaches elsewhere.  Collins is rumored to be leaving.  Even if those four stay, no one else currently playing will be able to help make them competitive.  They have another 8th grader that is supposed to be really good, but there isn't anymore listed on the roster.  So, I don't know even his name on that.
