More Openings in the Central Region

There are now Head Coaching Vacancies at Hermitage, LC Bird, and Meadowbrook. Three playoff teams in 5a south are now looking for coaches. What do you think is the best job opening right now?

Tough call between Bird and Hermitage but I would lean Bird just because even before Bedwell arrived to Bird, they were a player in the region. Hermitage on the other hand came to the forefront of the region when Kane arrived in 2001 and built it to where it is now. I can't help but wonder depending on who they hire, if the program regresses or not.

This was a topic of conversation in the press box with a friend of mine who covers football in the region as well. Both Bird and Hermitage cannot afford to hire the wrong guy and stunt what they have had this century.

As for Meadowbrook... it's a tough gig. The Central is so competitive with Thomas Dale, Dinwiddie and Hopewell ahead of Meadowbrook. Then they always have a brutal out of district schedule and usually end up drawing one of the top two teams in the playoffs.

Hermitage and Meadowbrooke are both great opportunities. L.C. Bird without question is the most intriguing job. David Bedwell is their Athletic Director. Of all people, he will exhaust all resources to make sure the football program has its needs. Understand that a program like Hopewell has a huge advantage with both their Principal and AD being former football coaches.
