Open Boys Basketball Head Coaching Jobs

[TadQueasy]

Double dip... pull public school retirement and then full salary at catholic at the same time.

Yep pretty smart on hsi part

 

[Arcola]

Most teachers near state lines do this also.

 

[AC100]

Well unless they get some transfers Catholic won't be very good next year. Of course they may get a few transfers now.

I'll put in my wooden nickel's worth here...

Poo/Nixa

Ozark/Republic

Parkview

Willard/Glendale/Branson

Central/Hillcrest

Not a huge difference between Parkview, Willard/Glendale/Branson, Central/Hillcrest. Their talent level runs in cycles and they are basically interchangeable depending on that talent level at a given time. The first four teams listed have talent every single year, seems like

Ranking the jobs in the Ozark Conference and COC would be interesting …

Ranking the jobs in the Ozark Conference and COC would be interesting …

I'll give it my best shot. Think it's all about perspective obviously. I'm going to factor everything, and not just hoops. Some stuff off the top of my head...location, pay, facilities, the district itself (I'll be the first to admit, I'd want not much to do with SPS), building demographics, reputation...you get it, not just the basketball part itself.

1. Nixa
2. Ozark
3. Republic
4. Kickapoo (I feel like they're a little insulated from the SPS garbage)
5. Willard
6. Branson
7. Bolivar
8. Waynesville
9. Camdenton
10. Webb City
11. Carthage
12. Joplin
13. Glendale
14. Parkview
15. Rolla
16. Lebanon
17. West Plains
18. Hillcrest
19. CJ
20. Neosho
21. Central

For me, it gets a little messy about halfway through or so. I feel like top 7 were somewhat easy, then next handful got tough, and then the last handful or so were almost toss ups.

I read just the other day that Toby Heeb who left the NMCC girls job is going to be the boys coach at Delta, joining his brother David who is the girl's coach there.

That is correct, his brother is also the Supt. there as well.

Thanks Trim, I didn't know what David was doing besides coaching. Between them they may wear the gym floor out running up and down in Delta. Toby said their dad lives near there, Chaffee I think, and now they can both be around to help him out.

Huge loss for Willow. Wilson is a great coach. They lost a good group of seniors and a great coach. They will be taking a huge step backwards

Fun times ahead for Delta Basketball fans!

I thought maybe diamonds coach got the Lamar job? Diamond posted about a week ago, and I heard he use to be an assistant there?

That was my initial thought, but he is not going to Lamar.

Where's Daniel going?

 

[RockChalk97]

What's the latest in Lamar? Heard the JV Coach from Willard turned it down.

Stockton has hired their principal as HC?!

Hadn’t heard that about Lamar.

Stockton usually keeps everything pretty close to the cuff. I knew until a couple of weeks they were still looking. Recently talked to a person who said they hired someone but couldn’t remember his name. If it was the principal you would think he would have remembered that. But who knows for sure!

Andrew Boone, who was the Willard assistant, took the Stockton head job

Maybe Johnson taking over the up start JEFFCO College mens program?

 

[3Rfan]

Are they bringing back men's basketball at Jeffco?

 

[oldroundballer]

Are they bringing back men's basketball at Jeffco?

I hadn't heard it either. It's going to be D2. Women's are also cutting back to D2. That's not surprising. I wouldn't be surprised to see others go that way. It's all about making money now. You can't do that by handing out full rides. MAC added two D2 soccer teams for that very reason. Giving full rides to kids from all over the world doesn't really benefit the college. Especially in this day of budget problems.

Men’s basketball to return to Jefferson College

After decades with no men’s basketball team, Jefferson College officials have set the wheels in motion to bring it back in 2023.

[3Rfan]

I had heard they might do all that but wasn't sure it if it was true. I wonder if Jeff softball will drop to D-2 also? Region 16 is goin down the tubes, they will be conference games but region games are getting hard to come by. West Plains is adding D-2 softball this fall/spring and baseball next year.

 

[jac57]

Weren't/aren't the STLCC programs all D2?
Meramec/FloValley/Forest Park; now solely STLCC Archers?.

 

[3Rfan]

It was different in different sports until they all got thrown in together. Meramec was really good in baseball and softball for along time in Juco D-1. Their basketball teams were pretty good at times too.
