Coach Vaughn to retire

Northwest Missouri State University has announced that there will be a change in the leadership of the Bearcat football program.

Head Coach Rich Wright's contract will not be renewed effective Dec. 31. Wright completed his eighth season at the helm of the Bearcat program on Saturday with a 23-7 loss to Pittsburg State. The Bearcats posted a mark of 6-5 overall and were 6-4 in MIAA play.

Wright served as a member of the Bearcat football coaching staff for 21 seasons. He coached in eight NCAA Div. II national championship games and helped the Bearcats secure national titles in 2009, 2013, 2015 and 2016. Wright is the winningest active MIAA coach with an overall mark of 65-22 (.747). He ranks No. 9 in winning percentage among NCAA Div. II head coaches with five or more years of experience.

Director of Athletics Dr. Andy Peterson said a national search will begin for the next head football coach for the Bearcats.

Co-Defensive Coordinator/Linebackers Coach Chad Bostwick has agreed to serve as the interim head coach until a new head coach is selected.

What in the world is going on there? Winless on the season. There is too much talent around there to be winless right now and losing to Kelly? Yikes.

Anything noteworthy from any jamborees this week? Watched some of the Doniphan jamobree tonight. West Plains and Doniphan got after it. Watching WP play man to man defense is going to take some getting used to.

Can’t wait until The Hulkster gets an appointment!!!!

Coach will not return and they are in the clock

Just wondering if there is any scuttlebutt on where Mexico, Moberly, Marshall, Kirksville & Hannibal are going conference-wise after the NCMC dissolves after the 25-26 Academic year.

Coach will not return and they are in the clock

I just told my Dad NEVER play to win on a FG in the red zone it is never certain............................

They play again, should be a fun match-up

After watching them against Lamar,,,then seeing their moms push them around yesterday it may be a long season

Lamar on the other hand is going to be tough to beat
