KF retiring?

How about this question, gentlemen. Would you rather Coach announce his retirement preseason and have a last season, or just retire at an end of a season?
Never ever do that before the season. Huge unnecessary distraction and not fair to players. Nick Saban or Scott Frost, this game ain’t about the coaches it’s about the players and that’s all the media is going to talk about.

If you’re going to retire and announce it publicly you do it right after the bowl game.

Remember Nebby getting a share of ‘97 title cause Osbern said he was retired before their bowl.
 




OABCIG, I’ve seen Jaxx play hoops and football against my nephew (Tri Center) a few times. Coop showed up to the BB playoff game in Harlan.
It’s actually BH/RV I was talking about and when they make the trip way up here they check West Lyon out. Scherff lives in Rock Valley and last year my buddy who has a kid playing b-ball sent me a pic of Woods, KF, Scherff, and Andrew Van Ginkel (Vikings LB) sitting in the bleachers together. Pretty cool for this podunk part of the state.

LeVar usually hits about 3 track meets a year in our conference. Watches sprints and shot/disc for whoever he’s scouting and by that time he’s usually starting to draw a crowd and heads out. Lots of recruiters make appearances at track meets because you can see 8-10 schools worth of athletes at once.
 




I have a hunch whenever Kirk decides to retire, he will wait to announce it in June. This will helps the odds they just promote somebody from.his staff to be the new head coach.

If it was up to me, if they were to fill the spot internally, I would name Phil Parker the next coach, but it could be Lavar Woods, Seth Wallace, or even Tim Lester, all are realistic choices, I believe.
Phil is not going to be the next HC. He'd have done that a long time ago if he wanted to.
 




Fryowa, do you have an email I can directly contact you?
My bad if you have some inside news you may have heard. TBH, I wouldn't be surprised at all if he chose to hang it up after this season. Also, I think it'd be really cool if he did if he was given the opportunity to be around the football complex to provide input and help with the transition. Not sure how that would work with the rules as far as coaching staff or advisors kind of thing.
 






Follow the Bluder model...after the season (preferably an AMAZING season), set someone on your staff up as the heir apparent, and ride off into the sunset.

We just need to take care of the "amazing season" part, and the rest will write itself.
