So he will be the coach for 1 or 2 years until consolidation?

Anybody that's ever played or coached at the High School level knows that assistant coaches help install the game plan and make SUGGESTIONS on game night..but the Head Coach makes the calls. Some DCs get to call their own game on Defense, but that's not always the case either.

Best hire for PV IMO, Travis knows the game and I think hes smart enough to run whatever kind of offense and defense he has the players for. Also hes an LPD guy and the players are gonna know who he is and respect him...Im not so sure when I was in high school I wouldve been too responsive to a coach like Palmer no matter how good of a coach he may or may not be, hes from the Cumberland District and as bad as some of his teams have been I can see players questioning him

The school board votes to hire a new coach and yes Uncle Phillip voted to hire Travis as the new coach. Coach Morris has been with Coach Robbins longer than Travis has. When it comes to play calling Travis is not very good. I know this first hand and I'm not trying to start anything. The movie Varisty Blues is nothing compared to Appalachia Blues that might come out when the schools are closed.
