That has nothing to do with him leaving. That's straight truth. Ross was just as bad if not worse. You have a 2nd team All-State LB and region MVP with a high GPA and ACT score in the class of 24 and the kid doesn't even have a JUCO offer. Ask the parents of any player that has gone to the next level while Pennock was there how much he did for them recruiting.
Special Teams may go too. He came in under Pennock. A lot of the other coaches went to St. Martin with Smith so there will be a lot of fresh faces. May light a fire to find an AD now. They have been dragging their feet because of timing and who one of their targets is.
It puts the entire athletic department in a mess. He was the asst AD and was supposed to run things until the new one was hired. Now no one knows what’s going to happen.
Only two started varsity last year so it will be interesting. Both Coordinators are going with him. Most of the other assistant coaches were retained from before so it will all be interesting. Especially with no AD.
