Eugene High School

I saw a Facebook group for Eugene 4th-6th grade football. Does anybody know if they are affiliated with the school or are they doing something similar to Blair Oaks Junior Falcons? I know they are moving to a new conference and I believe only them and New Bloomfield do not have football in the conference, so really hoping this could be another local school adding football in the future.

My phone knows everything that's said in my house

I got a text on MY phone today from a lady asking if I could trim her Crepe Myrtles when the weather clears up and I have time. I text her back that I would and told why wife about that. A few minutes ago a thing popped up on HER phone about 7 plants/bushes that should be trimmed in January or February. This is not the first time this has happened that something we talked about around the house, not something either of us looked up on our phone or the computer, and something about that subject appeared on our phone. I don't know how that happens but's it's a little scary to think your phone hears anything you say when it's just setting somewhere in the house with you.

Doniphan and East Carter will meet again

Friday evening in the championship game of the OFC Tournament at Three Rivers. Both have two good post players and good guards, should be another good one. It'll be interesting to see if either team's press will work as well on the bigger college court. The same guys that have done the Doniphan games all year on Current River Radio youtube thang have done every game of the OFC Tournament, including the JV games and will do all the games on championship night too. JV boys at 5:30, Varsity girls about 7 and Varsity boy's about 8:30.

C6#3 Kickapoo(19-1) @ C5#7West Plains(15-4)

West Plains has definitely had their growing pains this year but the Lady Zizzers are 15-4(4-0 in the OC) have won 11 straight after starting the season 4-4.

There is a 3-way tie for first in the OC between WP, Poo, and Rolla.

I do think Kickapoo is favored by 10-15 pts in this game on paper, but WP hasn’t lost since December 27th and have won those games by an average of 18+

WP has 7 games left on their schedule before districts and I predict they’ll go 5-2 with the remainder of the schedule and actually have them picked to lose this one, but there’s a part of me that thinks this will be a game. And I hope it is.

Go Lady Z!

Just Curious Questions

How many schools hire non teaching (on staff) coaches? I know there are a lot of schools that allow volunteer coaches and off staff assistant coaches, maybe retirees, but is it a common practice to have a head coach of sport that doesn't work at the school?

Secondly, should those persons be held to the same level of morality, ethics, and rules as actual educators in their coaching role? I have seen too many examples nationwide in the news/websites to where off staff coaches seem to get by with more than actual professional educators.

Thanks.
