BATTERY CREEK'S FOOTBALL COACH FIRED!!!!

[BEAUFORTEAGLESFAN]

BATTERY CREEK'S HEAD FOOTBALL COACH FRED HAMILTON WAS FIRED THIS PAST WEEK. HAMILTON JUST COMPLETED HIS 1ST SEASON DURING HIS 2ND TENURE AT BATTERY CREEK. BATTERY CREEK FINISHED UP 2-9 THIS PAST SEASON UNDER HAMILTON. BATTERY CREEK PRINCIPAL EDMUND BURNES SAYS THAT HAMILTON WAS NOT FIRED BECAUSE OF THE LOSING RECORD. THE DOLPHINS ATHLETIC DIRECTOR SHELBY STROTHER SAYS THAT HE WASN'T PART OF THE DECISION TO FIRE HAMILTON AND THAT HE WAS SURPRISED AS EVERYONE ELSE. SO THAT MEANS THAT THE PRINCIPAL FIRED HAMILTON ON HIS OWN. I DON'T KNOW WHAT HAPPENED BUT I COMPLETELY DISAGREE WITH THIS DECISION. HAMILTON HAS ONLY BEEN THERE FOR 1 SEASON AND BATTERY CREEK HIRED HIM IN THE MIDDLE OF SUMMER SO THE DOLPHINS DIDN'T COMPETE IN ANY 7 ON 7'S. PLUS THERE WERE A LOT OF OTHER DISTRACTIONS INCLUDING 3 PLAYERS GOT HURT IN A AUTO ACCIDENT. I DON'T THINK THAT THE PRINCIPAL SHOULD HAVE THE FIRING DECISION ON HIS OWN. THE ATHLETIC DIRECTOR SHOULD HAVE A SAY SO ALSO. I HOPE THAT THE DETAILS ON THE FIRING COME OUT. WHAT DOES EVERYONE THINK ABOUT THIS?

I heard they did some interviews but haven't heard anything about who is in the running. Should be interesting.

I heard they had interviewed some folks, but haven't heard who, or anything else. Should be interesting to see how it goes.

I will get it started. Will this be hired from within or will they go outside to hire the next Head Football Coach?
