nu, loose another close one..they wonder why they can,t win the close ones....TALENT, they dont have enough.
wonder if the fans are getting on scott?
Grinnell. Grinnell has turned things around and is likely an attractive Job. Especially since they are getting a Major stadium/facilities upgrade (not that their old complex was bad).
I know nothing personally of the Grinnell situation I do not know if paednoch23 does either, but I know that it is their head baseball coach that is the interim coach. He may not want it, already being the baseball coach, and only took it because it was June and finding a head coach that late would be tough, and maybe he does want it, I do not know.
Grinnell is suppose to be open as the baseball coach was clear he was a one year fill in, however, you never know.
Your information lines up with everything I know and have heard. Grinnell has some decent athletes on their team. He seems (the interim) to have done well coaching them. The prior coach left the program in a good spot and built some components very quickly (a solid youth tackle program and a football club organization). Whoever takes the job will have the resources and community enthusiasm support. Additionally they are upgrading their football complex. It is a very attractive job.
I'm curious as to jobs like the ones have been posted just how often those come open as it seems like those jobs are always open. I get it that they're pretty remote places to live and that more than likely factors in to them always being open.
kids at tj rather play video games...and i dont think there is a lot of community support there
Kids and people everywhere play video games. Athlete or not. This comment doesn't work anymore lol.
A Dr. Pepper TV commercial, where a punter is entering the "Portal" to go play for another team, and asks a coaching staff if they need a punter. The 3 coaching staff guys say - no. The punter enters the "portal" and grabs a pack of Dr. Pepper (soda) and returns with the pop and says: I brought Dr. Pepper. Then the 3 coaching staff guys say - "welcome to the team".
So I think it's safe to say that this is a slow year for openings. Just a couple weeks left in the year and if a job was going to post it would have by now. Certainly, the ones that are open could open another but there are really no real "attractive" positions open except for maybe the Grinnell job.

That HC wasn't there too long, only 2-3 years I think. Central Elkader was a pretty good program 8-10 years ago, made the quarterfinals a couple times if I recall.
None of them are top tier in their classes but Grinnell and Lincoln are probably the best. Knoxville is not an easy job. I know someone that coaches there and he said it was difficult getting kids out. Good community and neat old stadium but not an easy place to win.
