I am concerned by new developments in the hiring process at our beloved PNG. Some things to think about regarding the process:
1. The job is only posted on the local PNG website and not the statewide site TASA which has all the jobs in 4A and 5A posted and every school uses it.
Concern: If we truly wanted the best why would we not post the job on the most viewed website in the state of Texas
2. The job requires a Masters Degree
Concern: We eliminate 95% of high school coaches today but have the opportunity to hire a coach that is interested in Administration
3. The job hire date is later than every other 4A and 5A job posted today
Concern: Do you think the best coaches are going to turn down an opportunity elsewhere while waiting on the last job available.
4. THE BIGGY!!!!!! They are not allowing the new coach to bring in any coaches with him!!! This has been confirmed!!
Concern: We have some really good coaches on staff, but what HC is going to be able to teach both sides of the ball to all of his coaches and players in the spring. Impossible!!!
Finally I submit the conspiracy theory for all to think about:
Port Neches will wait till the last minute to change the Masters requirement to prefered by then most all coaches will have accepted their new assignments, They will Hire Mike Long who will accept the position gladly because the whole staff already knows his schemes from coaching with him before. Finally he will not only be the HC but the OC as well which will in the schools mind warrant the hefty salary because he will be working three jobs: HC/OC/AD........think about it.
