Sorry to get off topic but didn't Betsy Layne name their football field after Eric C. Conn and isn't his logo on it?

What are they going to do in light of recent issues?

He wanted to buy the turf on the condition his name be on it but the school declined. This happened around 2-3 years ago. Smile

The Betsy Layne High School video board you can see from U.S. 23 is sponsored by Eric C. Conn.

The board with Eric C. Conn's name has be covered up right now and you can not see his name and as far as the field goes. He wanted to sponsor the turf field and stadium but was rejected about three years ago.

Now back on topic, Coach Parsons is out as head coach after ten years of being the head coach and an official announcements has not been made yet as to who will take over for for Betsy Layne.

What's the reason that Parsons is out? He done about as good as could be expected there. Just tired of it?

He had an opportunity come forward that he couldn't pass up as sportscritic stated above.

Coach Parsons did an incredible job in his stint as Betsy Layne coach and will continue to do great things at Betsy Layne as an administrator.

Awesome to hear! Good luck to Coach Parsons! The title of this thread had me thinking something might have went on and went the other way.

Nope, I'm sure he had other offers for his position. But he chose to stick with the #BBFL and become assistant principal at Betsy Layne High School.
