Head Coaching Changes for 2017-18

[rufuller]

Is Creighton Prep still opening up? Or any updates on that?

It is still open, I believe they are in the interview process. Sounds like some great candidates.

 

[Huskers783]

That Prep hire might create a trickle down for some other jobs in the Omaha area too.

 

[Coach_White]

James Kerwin is the new Head Coach at Concordia

James Kerwin is the new Head Coach at Concordia

Is this the old Beef coach?

 

[Coach_White]

Yes, he's been an assistant at Prep most recently.

 

[hazard05]

So, Prep will probably have an announcement here shortly too. Sounds like a good hire for Omaha Concordia.

 

[Coach_White]

I'd imagine so. Any rumors on Prep candidates?

 

[rufuller]

I have heard Tim Johnk, Jay Ball, and TJ Fyfe all got interviews. Not sure on who else.

 

[Coach_White]

Jay Ball would be an interesting hire!

 

[Sean Callahan]

I'd imagine so. Any rumors on Prep candidates?

Jay Ball I believe interviewed this week and Tim Johnk is supposed to interview this week as well. There are also three internal candidates that have put in.

Do you know if Kerwin was one of the internal candidates? You would think that his past experience would grant an interview.

Not that I know of. I know Fyfe and the freshman coach both applied.

I am shocked that anyone would hire that guy after he punched a high school girl in the face. Boystown doesn't seem like a good fit for a guy that can't control his temper

 

[AnyGivenSaturday]

Omaha Gross - Tom Van Haute

Where did Greg Hanson go? Wasn't he the last coach there after he left Stanton? Or am I crazy.

Last I heard Greg is going to be the defensive coordinator at Seargent Bluff-Luton. Before being South Sioux's Coach Hanson was at Centura.

 

[SPbObRT]

Silas will bring a offense to SSC. unlike the last coach who made it more of a rugby style scrum offense.

I am not sure it will matter as long as they are in Class A they will win 0 to 4 games a year with once every 12 to 15 years a season with 7 wins Its a coaching graveyard

South Sioux is a tough football job. They need to be Class B full time.

C2 Wakefield in 2007-2008 would have beat those South Sioux Class B teams imo.

They get drained of athletes by Bishop Heelan on the Iowa side. The two schools are less than 12 miles apart

Hope the punter has stamina. 30 second "drives" and a pinball scoreboard.

Oh for sure. If I were a kid and wanted to play on winning teams I'd go to Heelan or somewhere nearby as well. It's different when the school is trying to do their best to start clubs or weight programs, etc. But it just doesn't seem like South Sioux has ever cared about football.
