Coaching Carousel

Dang . Well I just hope it all works for both coaches if the boys get to play my money is on strawn ! Just because the big one is a work horse but prolly will be the 2 back to block for Montgomery

Might have to sit out a year.

Not a chance..... their dad was fired by one school then if hired by another and move into disctrict they will be eligible!! Always has worked that way! Landon would be eligible to if Jerry would have resigned or got fired and taken a job elsewhere and moved into district!! They will be eligible!! For RS sake I hope they stay cause with out them and Landon they are first or second round at very best!!

Lol Strawn doesn't need another coach they need his two boys!! Will they be eligible???

Neither did RS but as you can see these things seem to happen!! Js they can hire him and he can find a house in district, then UIL has no basis to rule kids ineligible on

Strawn was looking for a coach at coaching school. So I hope nobody thinks that Strawn just created a job to get some kids. They were needing a coach. Just thought I would point that out.

The RS faithful think they can fire or demote a guy undeserving of such actions to clear room for their golden boy and then expect him to keep his athletic kids there to help Jerry Win a title? They will all be pulling for UIL to review his kids eligibility which is crazy to me!! If you don’t want him then wish him well and deal with it!!!

No point in confusing some people with facts !

According to the news report rigdon was not fired and was moved to teaching only so that changes up alot from being fired. Hes moving for athletic purposes now.

That’s not moving for athletic purposes, it’s moving for a job. If you live in the district, you must wait 15 days to become eligible. RS would have no case there.

What news report are you referring to? I think the San Angelo paper would be all over this story. Has the school board posted any information on this turn of events? Why would Rigdon want to stay if he is not the coach? Glad the season starts soon!

[Bluecat98]

Burkharts kid will play as well if they live in the district. Last year was a totally different situation. Also, I know burkhart loved RS, why stay so long if not?? He tried something new and it wasn’t what he hoped, so why not go back if you get a chance??

Was this the plan all along ? Is that why Rodgers went back?

[6manfamily]

Heck yeah it was plan all along, heck rankin also just completed the sale of a team bus to RS just a week or so before Jerry burkhart was spotted on campus in RS!! This guy orchestrated the coaching changes and purchase of team bus all from way out west in Rankin!!!! Genius

[One _pac2018]

Did Rodgers know Jerry would be back ?

This situation has been fun to watch from a distance. RS has been doing their very best to stack their team with athletes for a good shot at another state title. This last move has backfired in their collective faces. One step forward and three steps back. I say three steps back because the best Rigdon athlete was going to be a 7th grader. That could have been a lot future wins.

The UIL declared Landon to be ineligible for a year, I'm thinking that the UIL will have to review his situation and declare him eligible, at the very least.
