@CoachRoseIvey

Thank you
@ChrismanBearsFB
for the opportunity to be the head football coach the past 3 years. I unfortunately will not be returning as the head coach next season. I appreciate all those who supported our program and wish the William Chrisman community nothing but the best. I am open to all coaching opportunities for the upcoming season. Please reach out directly.

Stepped down or fired? Wouldn't think Chrisman would fire him. Seemed like they liked him.

They way he worded his tweet, could be either way. Most don't usually step down to immediately say they are open to all coaching opportunities.

 

[HomeyR]

Retirement ?

 

[thetophat2021]

The word "unfortunately" may be your clue, Herman.

They've lost their best boys basketball coach they've ever had this past summer and the best track coach they've ever had two years ago. I think the cupboard is bare. Chrisman had a nice stretch of success 2017+ with some great athletes but appears to be on hard times again.

 

[freezeoption]

My guess let go. This is early in the season. That district is afu.

 

[Eagles_Ball]

That district is afu.

You ain’t lying there.

They do have some athletes. Thoughts on why it's never translated to success on the football field?

Job posting has closed and interviews in process

Job posting has closed and interviews in process

Hmm, got some athletes but like Truman can be hard to win consistently. Curious to see who emerges

 

[freezeoption]

That district is messed up.

 

[Edgeman3]

4 day week. I imagine thats enticing!

Culture is hard to change when the good influence is one sided. Very easy to develop and keep a good culture when it's reinforced full circle, parents,community,school,coaching.

Community is such an underrated aspect by a lot of folks

 

[freezeoption]

Idk if they are going to keep 4 day week.

 

[Eagles_Ball]

Probably not sustainable in a district their size. There is a LOT of pretending going on in ISD these days.

I think that is so true and in addition to some really good coaches it's a huge part of why Fort has had the success they've had.

16 was a great year for Chrisman

 

[thetophat2021]

16 was a great year for Chrisman

I remember their 42-39 upset of a very, very good Staley team that year indeed!

no doubt
that was a wild night
James Bailey was a monster

Inside hire prolly not the best choice for a school with talent but bad culture. Benefit of the doubt goes to them as they have more information.

Must not have had many applicants

 

[cardsfan200306]

They are getting a new football field surface i see.

 

[ugaboz]

Must not have had many applicants

why would you assume that ?

 

[Edgeman3]

why would you assume that ?

For the D-Line coach, who wasn't a Coordinator on a bad team, to get the job seems like there may have been slim pickings. May be wrong but...

I see o cord and d crod hired all the time that fail

 

[Edgeman3]

I see o cord and d crod hired all the time that fail

No doubt... what does that have to do with number of applicant pool?

I mean more people fail and are fired than that have a long winning success, so I don't disagree with your premise

and what does a position coach that gets hired have to do with number of applicants?
I get your premise though

 

[kaching]

Man, sometimes this board is brutal.

you are obviously too close to this situation, calm down

Just wait til Bosko returns.......................

 

[HHSX2]

So is this year just an anomaly for the amount of coaching openings in KC or is the pretty much the norm?

 

[ugaboz]

lol
not really
it will be ok

 

[cardsfan200306]

lol
not really
it will be ok

it will be ok, Chrisman has a new coach, new field, and an opportunity to harness the talent in the hallways. However dissecting the hire is normal and this one does appear to not have had any game changers in the pool or the school chose not to go with them which would be baffling. I have nothing but hope for the new coach and cant wait to see what they do.

I believe George Allen said, football coaches are always close to being fired. That is a part of this profession that I don't agree with. Pro and college is a different species than high school ball. Unless your a private school you play with what your dealt with. Some people have to play kids that wouldn't see the field. Football is an unforgiving sport.

Unfortunately Mommy and Daddy don't see it that way. Their son or daughter is the greatest thing since sliced bread and a future All American... just ask them !

Yes sir and that's one of the reasons public and private shouldn't be in the same playoff system.
