This is an unreal off season. When was the last time we saw all this HC movement plus the dreaded perpetual "rumor mill"?????
Current openings, soon to be opened, or hot seat.
- Thread starter 816FOOTBALL
- Start date
It's extremely rough....there is really no "community" support or at least one that rallies around the sports teams or even the school in my opinion. Facilities aren't anything to get excited about. They have had some really good athletes over the years of existence...they have a youth football feeder program...no clue as to what they are really wanting...the last guy there has been incredibly loyal and seems to be such a good human being.
10 years ago OG would be mad he was soaking up a teaching job. In 2024, they are probably hoping he sticks around to soak up a teaching job.
Should have one hiring announcement as early as today in the Suburban Conference. Going to let him tell his current team before I post anything on here.
Guessing the coaching carousel is harder than picking games these days! GView HC Joiner returning to Northtown WOW.
Lee Freeman has been hired by Windsor (Imperial) as New head coach. He was the head coach at Hillsboro from 2014-19. He replaces Jeff Funston who headed the Windsor program the past three seasons.
You do realize this guy could be 6-5, weigh 250 and used to drive steel posts in with the palm of his hand.

Oak Grove has made an AD and Football coach hire as Ryan Schartz will return to the sidelines to take over the Panthers program. Schartz led Fort Osage to its only football state title in 2015. Welcome back Coach Schartz.
That is wild. Can’t imagine a better hire for OG.
Wow, that was radio silence on that one. Hard to believe in this day and age. Curious if Bult leaves the sidelines like Schartz did to take that role. Dudley, who was the defensive coordinator and now AP at the high school, could be a potential replacement in the AD role.
That is definitely a splashy hire. He has a good senior class returning with a solid running back. I think he will get numbers up immediately and they will be a contender next year.

MRVC West will be high scoring again this season I would say a horse race right now especially with this incredible hire. I could see defending champ Pleasant Hill, Harrisonville, Warrensburg, Odessa and Oak Grove all contending for this league in 2024. In saying that I SERIOUSLY doubt we see a result like Week 9 Warrensburg-Oak Grove ever again!

This is the best hire by a KC area school in recent memory. Came out of nowhere but I've heard he'll have the chance to coach his son's at OG so it makes sense if thats the case. He is going to be in the dual AD/Coach role so that'll definitely be a challenge. One thing I have no doubt about is that he'll assemble a top staff and they'll win and contend in C3.
I had the same thought on Bult and Dudley.
facts already getting calls to come over as DC but we all know peewee parents pay better hahahahahahahaha
Looks like Missouri Scoop has a website now instead of having to rely on Twitter. Looks like a work in progress, but it does have a nice synopsis of the coaching changes.

It will be interesting to see how it changes. Fort HAS to solve the qb position regardless of scheme.
Also watching the AD hire to see if it affects football.
I saw a lefty JV QB who was unbelievably athletic who will be a junior. Also, I don't see the offense changing much: hand it to the good RB. A lot. Throw RPOs off of that. Done.
RPO not going to work against K with all that damn speed at LB they do not have to sell out to stop the run they have the speed to let the play develop and react
Well they weren't previously much of an RPO team. So that would be different. Obviously they'll ride Peppers but I think the few that have noted a QB is needed is likely correct. Good defenses will contain Peppers. Be interesting to see what Hewitt does with Offense but I'd imagine it'll look much different than the past Fort O's
To the average fan, the run game and formations will look nearly the same: Fort O ran a lot of power/counter schemes (and some inside zone) with an H and normal spread formations, whereas Joplin looks more inside/outside zone, but still with an H and normal spread formations. The pass game may be a bit different, but will it look that much different than every other spread team?
