Wasn’t there a Grissom on the Bears sidelines?..If so.. ELKIN sure could have used him…
If you're Elkin, would you want someone that is isn't in the building all day? Head coaches need to be in the building. Especially for sports like football.

I agree, I do think the Football coach should be a teacher if at all possible.
That's usually the way it works the school will hire a coach that can coach but must be able to fill a position in the school system.
Yes but smaller schools can face real challenges when the coach that resigns does not leave the school as a teacher. Plus finding a coach that can fill a non-PE job is also tough.
Small schools tend to do a good job creating or finding jobs for coaches. Elkin will do what it takes to get who they want.
Not sure a retired Coach getting up there in age is the answer.
I think the one I am eluding too could be a better choice if he applied.
Elkin needs someone young and energetic
If one applied that’s being talked about, he has proven he can turn something around,
I was a couple of years behind him at Elkin Never met anyone with more Elkin pride. Followed his career, amazing. Old School. Players love him and and he fights for his players and love them If it happens, a Hurricane 5 will hit these boys. I said this would get interesting.
They will have a tough time. They have good looking kids but there is no toughness. Every sport they have stinks. Including men and women's sports. It's sad. That it has become a laughing stock. A once proud program with tough, fast, strong kids, is awful. I love his interviews. You don't lift you don't play. I hope he can fix it if he gets it. Although I would not put much stock in him getting hired. Elkin is soft. The school admins don't want football to dominate. As it should. It is the catalyst for all the other sports. It sets the tone.
Dennis Stokes, he was a Elkin Graduate? I know for years he has been on Staff at Eastern Alamance, North Iredell, and Lake Norman. He is currently in SC, but can't remember where on staff.
Current school board probably won't help matters. They've already proven they like to interject in coaching decisions and it bit them in the hand. I'm sure at least one will try and make his opinion felt.
He was hired at Elkin at one point and then was gone pretty quick.

You obviously don't know what a good coach is. Sorry he would be a terrible idea. What is fort Mill now? Think they've lost seven or more games every year since those guys have been there.
That is true but I think that they have some people who want shy away from a coach who has to be tough. That's what they need. It's going to take a while for it to get better. Because they got some thin skins around there.
That whole of coaches was at Lake Norman. Not sure I would give them a great big thumbs up.
The best coach for that Elkin job if it was from the bears staff would be one of those two EW graduates that coached on the offensive side of the ball.
Com’on man!! Someone has to have heard SOMETHING!!! ELKIN has a rich history in football!!!
Someone be the first to spill the beans before they explode ! LOL
Maybe Davey applying I might believe but not David.
