Former Coach Posted February 5, 2025 Share Posted February 5, 2025 33 minutes ago, TigersFan said: Trust me Hopson has enough connections and most in the state know him. Yes he has not been an A.D but has been around high level athletics and I don't see how this is a bad hire for the district. If Jay has full authority for this hire I expect it to be a good hire. Although he hasn't been an AD he has been in the business as and assistant and Head coach at major universities and knows what it takes to build and sustain a program.

Some of those are surprising especially with the huge pay raise that comes with it. I guess Dillion Mitchell, Darryl Carter, college coaches like Clinton, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pancho Posted February 5, 2025 Share Posted February 5, 2025 I have said nothing negative about Jay at all but he is a smooth talker. My point is, can he smooth talk a quality HC to come and work under this Super who has such a high view of himself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus it’s closer to home for him. He does have a daughter up that way I think so I guess it’s not totally out of the question. But they will have to pony up some money.

Clever Clogs Posted February 8, 2025 Share Posted February 8, 2025 Buckley to Starkville is a real possibility. Hopson and him have ties. He was a successful high school coach so it could work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
