Coaching News

In addition to the recent vacancy at Wilby with Chris Eckert leaving, we have several NVL jobs open, including those at Wolcott and Crosby.

Former Wolcott coach Pat Russo is certainly a hot commodity, namely for the Crosby job but also potentially for the Wilby position.

Mark Jaffee of the Rep-Am is reporting that the Wolcott Board of Education "will be presented with a recommendation for a new head football coach at its March 28 meeting." We've heard from several folks on here that the frontrunner looks like Jay Pace, but who knows. Looks like we'll find out within the next month.

Emmett O'Brien still does not have an official head coach, but we've been hearing a lot about Kenny Roberts likely taking the job.

Just in this week, former longtime NVL assistant coach Greg Todd has been hired as the head coach at Lewis Mills. I met Todd when he was the freshman coach at Woodland when I was attending school and he's a good man. I wish him the best of luck in trying to steer the young program.

Jaffee's story breaking the Lewis Mills story and furthering info on the Wolcott job can be found here.

As always, feel free to post any information you have on any coaching situations or schedules. Try to keep the rumors under control and harmless.
