What is Cabot looking for in their next head coach?
Someone with the same philosophy for a smooth transition?
Or, will they start trying to benfit from their large enrollment and go with a more modern approach to the game?
I doubt it happens, BUT, everything buzzing around is they are going to go after PA's Kevin Kelly. I've even heard it directly from some within Cabot's program. Thurmans son is the kicker/punter so wouldn't make sense to bring a guy who doesn't kick...
Who knows.....Malham is a legend but sometimes change is whats needed more.
If they promote within I feel sorry for the program because it will still be the same. From high school all the way down to JR High football, they do not throw the ball enough. I just wonder what this offense could really do if they open the field up and had a decent and well balance spread offense. It seems like every Cabot team rather it's high school or JR high all they do is run left, run right, run up the middle. You can't always rely on the run, Cabot has the numbers to compete and win if they can attract the "right" person. Cabot has been under one system for so long and if they promote within, nothing will change. They need to bring someone in from the outside that will shake things up and bring a little more power.
Knowing Cabot's past willingness to pony up (Bridges & Crowder) nothing would shock me, including Kelly. However, I don't see that as a great fit for him, big difference between attracting your players to PA and the current talent pool available at Cabot. I think the next coach at Cabot (my guess Patton) will accept the norms set by NLR & Bryant and magically expand that talent pool by dipping into the Jacksonville area.
Kelley ain't taking the Cabot job....

I don't get where you say we are running from PA, we have played them 4 times I think and have split with them at 2-2. Has SS played them or are you gonna keep scheduling Heritage?
Simply guessing:
B. Bolding
D. Patton
M. Kelley
C. McNabb
B. Dawson
Hopefully Cabot will not look out of state for their hire.

Bolding and Patton would probably be the most likely from this list. I could see them going out of state for this one. With the size of the school and location, this will draw a lot of interest.

Maybe my memory is bad. When were the 4 times? I remember 09 and 10. You are correct however, it was a split. But I was wondering about the other 2 times. Thanks.

2006 state championship game PA lost by 1 point in final seconds of game
2007 quarter finals, played at PA, PA lost by 7 points. PA was on the 9 yard line when time expired.
Easy to understand remembering the 09 & 10 games, with the outcome being different 😀
Sorry. I thought this thread was about Cabot. I'm guessing you are talking about Greenwood?

Correction on my answer. PA won over Greenwood in the 08 and 09 seasons by 30 & 7 points respectively.
I also only remember 2 meetings vs Cabot. Remember very well when PA went up 28 or 29 to zip before Cabot ever ran an offensive play.
I've heard from.a few people that Buck is interested in it,
If they choose to stay in-state, this will create a pretty significant domino effect around the state IMO.
They have to already have a decent idea of who would be interested. I figure they've had a short list for a while now. I don't imagine it will take too long after the season is over to name a new HC. Once they make their choice, things will start moving big time.
Dawson isn't going to leave, Kelly isn't going to leave as well. I'm surprised nobody hasn't mention Scott Reed from El Dorado yet. I can see Bolding being in the mix since his at Parkview and his looking to rebuild himself after what happen at NLR. I'm not sure if Cabot would want that in their program to be honest.

No way Dawson leaves Fayetteville. Definitely don't see Brad Bolding getting the job, maybe Bobby, but don't see him leaving PB for Cabot. Don't see buck leaving for Cabot either. Mark Smith will not get an interview. Scott Reed- maybe and would be a good hire. Patton is also a maybe in my book and would also be a good hire. Who else could be interested that would get a look?

Patton, if he wants to leave Bauxite ,is the logical choice.

Don't like the Chris Wood hire, not sure he likes the move either. I think the players are a little excited about right now. Right now I'm thinking if it's not Patton or Reed then it will be an out of State hire.

If you google job hopper, you would see his name beside it.
100 + apps for this one.
I would love to have Scott Reed. Then maybe he could hire his high school teammate, Mark Whatley, away from Springdale as offensive coordinator. Not likely, but I would love for it to happen.
Cabot has lost several talented players over the past 5-10 years due to the Malham system.... Some of which have gone on to play college ball. I hope whoever they bring in can keep the talent they do have!
This will be an interesting process for sure and will have a definite affect on the coaching carousel around Arkansas!

Daryl Patton at Cabot. Wow. What he could do there.....

I certainly agree ... I could see Brian hembree take a step up to hc from oc
Whoever it ends up being, I hope they keep the run game in the playbook. I believe a balanced offense would benefit Cabot tremendously. I believe they have the athletes to compete through the air but will need lots of practice to do this consistently.

Because the structure of Cabot is run from peewee to jr. high to high school it will take a few years to change the system. No matter who they hire.

Jordan Green transferred to Greenwood and did really well there.
Conley Hillegas runs track in college and would have played football in college too, but didn't want to play for MM.
My son also refused to play for MM. Definitely would have been a major college football player.
The MM system is for runningbacks to run into people and absolutely do not bounce it outside or juke anyone.

2 real difference makers in 30 plus years. MM should have a couple of more state championships with numbers like that. 8)
Mike Malham did a great job at Cabot. He's one of the most well respected coaches in Arkansas and if you would ask anyone who played for him I believe they'd tell you how big of an influence he's been in their lives. Some of the comments here are laughable, fan/parent biased that come from a position of ignorance.

What impact will it have on the Bryant roster? Joe T Robinson Roster? Etc etc. Will the newness of the school and "Little Rock pride" really pull that many kids from better performance schools and better environments?

That's stupid, No kids aren't going to move out of Bryant to play for a Little Rock school unless it's for PA. Those kids will stay at Bryant, there won't be anyone to move just because Little Rock is getting a new school in Southwest. You will see that SW school become a 7A school and they will have a large amount of kids, not to mention look how Little Rock McClellan has been last couple years in football. Not to mention Buck James is playing for a state championship, he won't leave and go to Cabot.
Tommy Tice
Harv Welch.

Just got word it's Gus.
Gruden?
So .... the one post said "younger" than Scott Reed..... could it be his son Taylor? He's coaching QB's at UCA I believe.
Malham announced he was retiring pretty early in the year I believe(could be wrong)...How is it that the administration hasn't had this planned out already? Seems like you would have planned ahead and had interviews already done and new guy ready to go as soon as he could get there
They AD has been working behind the scene for a while now. Once the play-offs are completed (in this state or otherwise), an announcement will be forthcoming. Gonna be good!

Isn't he at Hewitt Trussville? I couldn't imagine him leaving there unless he is missing home... that's one of the best public schools in Birmingham. They've already beaten Hoover and Oak Mountain this year, if that tells you anything. But, Cabot wouldn't be a bad job to come home to
I always felt like Josh moved to Alabama to kind of "tail" Malzahn. With the uncertainty with Malzahn now, he may be interested in moving home. Not saying that's why he went to bama but it was kind of odd that when Malzahn left Arkansas to Alabama so did Floyd.

Kids usually always want someone already there. Less change. Cabot should not have to hire an unproven head coach.

Booster stipends. Haha. I think there is an 0-10 coach in the state that has those kind of contract details.
Cabot can pay 100k plus for a proven head coach.
According to the 2018/2019 certified salary schedule a head coach with 28 years of experience and a masters plus 12 hours would make $98317.80. Unless they are given another job or supplimented by outside sources this is the max salary. Most applicants wont meet these criteria, but is still one of the better paying jobs in the state.

Cabot can pay 100k plus for a proven head coach.
Floyd's starting salary in 2014 when he was hired was $120,000.
Thanks guys. With the info given it would seem like he would be crazy to leave where he is.
anyone know when this hire will be made? Dec? Jan?
Supplements are not reported on the salary website.
Supplements are not done often but they are done and done legally. Usually the booster club or a group of people get together and fund this. Each district, of course, sets their own salary schedule. Shiloh is not bound by any state requirements since it is a private school. Most state schools will give the coach an extra title to enhance his salary. Most of the time he doesn't do this extra job. lol. In the past, one way to do this is to make the head football coach the AD. Of course this job has to be done, but not necessarily by the head coach. lol. And, cabotpantherman is right, supplements are not reported on the salary schedule.

Current salary for the position is around $93K. Supplements aside, do you think the board will start at a higher salary than that?
Depends who it was is.

The salary depends on educational level and years of experience. After that boosters can kick in or he can be given an additional title. A coach with ten years of experience with a BS will not make as much as one with a masters plus 12 and 28 years of experience.
I believe this hiring is a done deal.

I have played for Malham, had a kid play for Malham recently, and yes the system needs to change, but why not look in house? They have always had a great coaching staff and my son really felt that there was qualified head coaches within that staff. (None are left from when I played....)
If Cabot hires in house, the system will not change. The system that Malham has at Cabot is all those coaches know. JR High North and South doesn't seem to call their own plays they seem to be using Malham playbook during football games. If Cabot has a chance to get someone from the outside they need to. Hiring someone in house is going to be a big mistake. Its time for a change there for Cabot, El Dorado decided to hire Jeff Williams after Register resigned and yall saw what happen there, after Williams departed after two years to go to Southside, another in house hired was made and after two years Butch Gray was forced out and thats when they hired outside and brought in Scott Reed.
Tadd Stewart who's at Southside would be someone to look at to bring back to Cabot. Not to mention that's his hometown. If Cabot really want to go after someone who does have Cabot ties.

I can assure you the T is not the only system those coaches know. I will also promise you that the T is more complex than you can ever imagine. If they can coach the T they can coach anything.

I can bet that these coaches know more than just the Dead T. If you happened to watch Jr. High South this year, they had a QB who could run and throw the ball, they spread their formations out and won the conference. Jr. High North even had some spread formations in the North/South game. These coaches, Im sure, have watched thousands of hours of tape on different offenses/defenses, I feel certain they know how to run different formations. You need to watch how the coaches interact with the kids, how excited they get for the kids.

I highly doubt that, the Dead T is the only thing Cabot football knew the last 39 years. None of the WR both JR high North and South could catch the ball every time it was thrown. The passes that were thrown were short but every time it was thrown they were able to get a 1st down and they would go back to running the ball again. Cabot football is based on the run, shut the run down they couldn't throw the ball. We all know Cabot would had won the championship a few years ago if they would had thrown the football more against Bentonville.
By the way, a big annoucement will be made on December 17th or the 18th.
Wonder if Mark King at Foreman would stand a shot at this? State title last year and semi finals this year? I know there is a great big difference in 2A and 7A football but the guy has proven success.
Urban Meyer is going to be looking
Obviously you didnt see any of the games on Jr. high south, I guess 40 yd passes is a "short pass"? You also need to see some of the catches that were made, those kids had pretty good hands. I remember the State Championship game, sleeting/rain, cold, wet...but if YOU saw that game, you would know that Bentonville ran the ball more than they threw, guess maybe because of the "conditions"???

The difference between 2A and 7A is one elite player can win a team a state title at 2A and not 7A. Dixon at Strong and Batey at Foreman proved that. If we are using that logic then Batey should get a shot at the Cabot job cause anybody with Batey was winning double digit games with him on a 2A roster. Let's pump the brakes a little bit and see what he can do without a player on his roster head and shoulders athletically superior to anyone that steps on the field against them..... before we start crowning him with a 7A coaching job.
Not necessarily true...Desmond Jackson from PC is getting offers from Oklahoma St. and Kansas St. right now. Won the Jayhawk Conference Offensive Player of the Week 3 weeks in a row for Hutchinson Community College and Parkers Chapel was unable to win more than 4 games all four years he played. Granted a great player will probably make a much bigger impact on a lower level, the coaching still has SOMETHING to do with it...

I don't think Cabot ever went very far in the playoffs during Barnes years. Cabot made it to the state championship game in 2013 and lost to Bentonville. They were led by Landers Award winner Zach Launius, who rushed for nearly 3000 yards that year. Barnes did help Cabot win a championship in basketball though.

This standard can be open to lots of interpretation. That phrase, "any gratuity, gift, compensation or favor that might impair or appear to influence professional decisions or actions shall refrain from using the educator's position for personal gain." tricky.

I think the point is if you are making over $100k in one place, why would you change jobs for $93k?
Like the rise in pay for college coaches many high schools over the last quarter century have signifigantly raised the pay of their head coaches. In many cases the disparity between some coaches pay and classroom teachers can be quite large. It is only natural some would question this practice.

Cabot band director pay is 107k, I think they can pay whatever it take. As I said before, RJ is Cabot next HC.
I think a school can elect to pay about whatever they want for normal school "extra duties" as long as the school board votes a pay scale to support it. Coaches stipends or multipliers are open to being raised. What would be more in question would be boosters paying the coach extra funds. Some communities are behind larger salaries for coaches others not so much.
Malham made more than 93k and so will the next coach.
Quote from: cabotpantherman on December 05, 2018, 08:46:09 pm
Malham made more than 93k and so will the next coach.
93K is his reported income. How much supplemental income is not reported?
A teacher/coach at Cabot maxes out at 28 years and a master's plus 12. The multiplier at Cabot is 1.53 for the head coach. I don't know the education level of the current coach, but he has certainly maxed out for the years. If a coach has over 28 years and a masters plus 12 his salary without supplements would be in excess of 98,000. Many schools make the head football coach the AD (not as much as they used to) which would be a significant boost to a salary. AD's anymore have a lot of work to do considering all the sports at the bigger schools like Cabot and the addition of girls sports. So, the head football coach generally doesn't have time to do that job.
So has a list of applicants became available yet?

Heard Josh Floyd's name came up.
Apparently he earns A LOT of money. Not sure Cabot can pony up enough for him to come from Alabama.
People around here initially thought that the coach would be the third part of the Coleman (Cabot's AD), Malzahn triangle. Josh Floyd would have met that requirement. However, I hasn't been contacted and if you look at his salary, he earns about 140K......WAAAAAAY of of Cabot's park. So, it will probably be someone in state now. Leader in the rumor mill seems to be Jones from Greenwood.
I'm going to predict Jones does NOT come to Cabot
Any ideas B.G.? Even the El Dorado coach was mentioned. I still say 50/50 they go out of state.
I cannot imagine Rick Jones leaving Greenwood for any other high school, unless it was one of the power teams in Texas. He's too close to retirement age and really doesn't have anything left to prove. Plus, I can assure you that between the Greenwood administration, the Foundation, and Farmers Bank that no one will outbid the UofG for his services.
I would think that Cabot would have a much better chance of getting Kevin Kelley than Rick Jones.
Cabot isn't interested in Kevin Kelly. Rick has about 8-10 years left in him.....also, nothing left to prove at the 6A level. Imagine a challenge of transitioning a program from one system to another at the 7A level might just be the challenge he wants. Who knows..........Cabot will on December 17th.......
Yall are going to be surprise is all I'm going to say....
My money right now is on Scott Reed.
Scott Reed was in interesting one. Some ADs up in NW Ark said that Reed was a front-runner (early in the season). Then that rumor died down. Kelly from PA was looked at back around 2000 when Malham was flirting with Jonesboro. Why do you think Cabot will be surprised bigshot?

I don't know who this "Cabot" is that you speak for but it doesn't include me. Like I said about Reed before and now about Jones. They both seem to be awful close to retirement age. Reed is close and Jones is older than him.
From what I know, "Cabot" is the powers-that-be. Kelly makes a lot of money from the private boosters. I have just heard that he hasn't been considered. Sources are saying that Thurman and Coleman are "playing their cards close to their chests". Not a lot of people in Cabot know.

This district itself announced a decision no later than December 17th. You know nothing more about that than anyone. http://www.cabotschools.org/news/2007/update-on-search-for-cabot-head-football-coach (http://www.cabotschools.org/news/2007/update-on-search-for-cabot-head-football-coach)
I know people within the athletic department and can tell you this has been played very close to the vest, as ALL searches should be. I haven't a clue who the decision will come down to, have no clue who actually moved forward with "interviews" and who simply "inquired" or was contacted to gauge interest, but have no doubt it will be an outstanding hire. Cabot is an elite job for many reasons.
If you know who it is and promised not to say shouldn't you do us all a favor and just keep the information absolutely secret? You know, like not say you know but cannot say until after it is announced.
Squirrel Shot...if you can't say who it is or even hint, then why even announce you know? For attention?
I know what the stock market is going to do on Monday, but I won't let you know til Tuesday
Can hardly wait for this announcement. After this one the other shoes will start to drop and that's always an interesting time of year.

I'll put $199 on Biggieshot that he will be right
Big snot don't know squat. I will bet $1000 that I know the name of the new Cabot head coach. I have written it on a piece of paper and placed it in my top left desk drawer. I will bet anyone here on the board $100,000 that the name that I wrote on the paper is correct. Once the official announcement is made I will screenshot that piece of paper to prove my superior knowledge, intellect, and inside sources. Like I said, I will bet $1,000,000 that I know the name of the new coach at Cabot.

Go ahead and send me that check I will PM you my address. Be careful with how you bet because I will take you to civil court and get my money.
To be honest I did in fact mention a name and it's funny how fast it got deleted on here. I posted a name earlier this week and it got deleted. It's kinda funny why that would happen.
Bigshot looks like you are from El Dorado, therefore the only way you know who Cabot next coach is would be from coach Reed. BTW it is called Greystone not Grey Stone.

Good gosh settle down young man.
Logical choice has to be Smith from Gtown Already converted an antiquated offense into a scoring machine from the power spread. School he's at had a huge tradition that had kind of fallen off, and had a legend in their own right before him with Netherland. Just saying...there is a template to doing it and he's got it. He's also been beating teams that have way more talent than they have on a pretty regular basis. He's the fit. No question.
My prediction. Absolutely no facts. No particular order. All would be good choices.

Malham didn't have a master's degree. He had a 1.53 multiplier index for his salary.

Lighten' up Francis.
Morrilton folks are saying that people in Cabot are wanting McNabb from Morrilton, any truth to this?
It is not widely known, but Cabot is also replacing their Defensive Coach as well. Coach Black is moving into the Dean of Students position at the High School. So whomever the new Coach is, can bring his Defensive Coach with him. If that doesn't happen, then he could shop around and go get one from another school. This is not usually the norm in Coaching changes. I will say, I am 100% sure that somebody's guess is 100% right.

One way to tell a charlatan, If they say they know this date, they are one.lol No one knows this.
You all may be surprised. A 7A assistant coach (not from Cabot) told me who he suspected it was. Now, to just get the the new coach to stay for 25 years.. LOL
I know he is more of a spread offense guy and prone to pass the ball MANY times a game. Hey, it is all about wins, no matter how you get 'em. Zach Clark... NO WAY. Lot of reasons why. Jones is paid too much and will stay in Greenwood for sure. Patton has issues from the past but a decent coach. No longer is it who you were in the past per se. Are you capable of dealing with players today and their social situations compared to 15 years ago?? Lot to consider for a Board decision on whom to select for Cabot's new football HC. :-\
I'm not sure who will be hired, but the 2 names who are being said in a lot of coaching circles are Eldridge and Reed. Most of the coaches I know say that that whomever they hire, hasn't told their team or coaches yet, so it won't go down till Monday. But those same coaches told me, Cabot could be headed in a different direction all together...
JRE
Well, I heard my next door neighbor telling my wife that she heard that her ADG newspaper carrier said he heard a guy at the gas station say that his wife was a realtor and showed 3 houses to an assistant coach from a LR school who said he might transfer to a town near Cabot as the assistant softball coach and knew that maybe Coach Malham would stay at Cabot if the pay was right. Gosh, you hear everything!
Oh, I just heard an hour ago that ..... oh well, I will just wait for channel 5, channel 7 or channel 10 to tell me who the new coach is. The ADG can be a day late in NWAR from the Central AR edition print of various news stories and obituaries, etc. And you have to pay extra to get the Central AR news if you go on-line, even if a NWAR subscriber. But, just for FF posters, I think the new coach will be from 7A or 6A and from an Arkansas school and not from out-of-state.
Personally, I know Bobby Bolding, and he would be a good choice. Anyone successful at Pine Bluff and Stuttgart prior to that has to have the ability to coach and teach discipline to his student athletes. He may have made contact with Cabot but his name is not mentioned much. We shall find out by Tuesday for sure..

I agree with you AirWarren. But sometimes a change in scenery from one with so many mosquitoes and flat land with few trees and throwing in a decent salary might change someone's mind. Bobby had made some applications and inquiries in the past before leaving Stuttgart and also inquiries about openings since being in Pine Bluff. The talent base in Cabot might frustrate him, as you suggest. ;D
There are a couple of basketball and baseball players that are committed to play at SEC schools that could help the football team. Yes we do have athletes.
How about his guy?
I don't know if Cabot is looking at him or not??????
El Dorado News-Times 02/17/2007
Board approves new coach
By JANICE McINTYRE News-Times Staff
It took less than 10 minutes for members of the El Dorado School Board to return from their executive session and announce their decision to hire Scott Reed as the new head football coach for the El Dorado Wildcats.
As head football coach for the Forrest City Mustangs since 2005, Reed said his team had not been in a huddle for two years and he believes in a "very fast offense."
Reed, who met school board members, EHS officials, other Wildcat coaches, team members and interested Wildcat fans on Friday, said he is very excited about moving to El Dorado and coaching the Wildcats.
He introduced his wife, Connie, and two sons, Taylor, an eighth-grade student, and Lucas, a sixth-grader.
He said his Mustangs last year practiced running and passing the football and started from the shotgun formation about 60 percent of the time. Reed said one of the major advantages to the stepped up offense is being able to control the tempo of the game.
The new Wildcat coach said he believes in everyone participating during practices. "We have no wasted time during practice. I hate to see kids standing and watching – I hate dead time. We practice fast everyday."
"I'm excited about what I do," he said.
Reed said several Mustang teammates signed with colleges at the end of his first year of coaching at Forrest City.
Reed grew up in Jacksonville, where he played football for his father, Bill Reed. He earned three letters in football, two in basketball and two in golf. He played on two state championship football teams and in 1978, was All-Conference and All-State Quarterback. In 1979, he was named Most Valuable Player, Arkansas High School All-Star Game.
After graduation from high school, he attended the University of Arkansas where he played quarterback for Lou Holtz for four years and participated in three bowl games.
Reed was an assistant coach under Razorback Coach Ken Hatfield from 1984 until 1987, and said during his first year, he coached Steve Atwater, who was drafted from the Razorbacks by the Denver Broncos, where he was picked in the first round of the NFL draft in 1989. Atwater played free safety for the Broncos for several years and signed with the New York Jets in 1999 before retiring from the game.
From 1991-1994, Reed was assistant coach at Houston High School in Texas and from 1994-2002, he was football coach and math teacher at Bartlett High School in Tennessee. In 2001, in Region 7-5A, the team was tri-champion and Reed was named coach of the year in 2000. The team advanced to the semifinals for the first time in 1999.
From 2002-2005, Reed served as an assistant football coach at Stephen F. Austin University in Nacogdoches, Texas, and coached quarterbacks, place kickers and punters.
At Forrest City, the Mustangs experienced their first winning season in 10 years in 2005, and tied for second in their conference. Reed was in the top three finalists for Hooten's Arkansas 5A Coach of the Year.
Reed thanked members of a football search committee, EHS Principal Larry Walters and Bob Watson, superintendent, and other board members for selecting him as head Wildcat football coach.
Reed said before he accepted the position, he asked the superintendent at Forrest City for his opinion. He said the superintendent said he could only think of "50 million reasons for you to go."
Last Saturday, the Reed family came to El Dorado to look around the town and visit areas of special interest. "We were impressed from top to bottom," he said. "We are thoroughly impressed and excited to be here."

You are right but football does require 55-65 players of which 20-24 need to be real good athletes to compete in 7A football. And basketball coaches HATE for their good players being in football and getting injured, not practicing shooting baskets, etc. and destroying their BB season. So, BB and baseball can get by with a lot less players than in football. NLR has 90-100 to pick from in football. Having said this, I think a good FB coach, seeing Cabot as a nice, well situated city in northeast/central AR and with good players, might think he can run a different offense than "hand off straight ahead" football, and he might install at least a run-pass offense to keep defenses off balance.
I think MANY coaches would love Cabot's fans and administration and stadium setting, from what I have heard over the years. The next couple of days will tell us who might have done an in-depth evaluation of the potential that exists in Cabot. My daughter lives in Cabot and works in NLR and the daily drive is "worth it"... LOL Good luck in getting a qualified coach to keep Cabot in the mix every year for a playoff spot in 7A. ;)
Rumor is that Reed said no.
Cabotpantherman, who are the basketball players that have signed with SEC? Jerrod was a basketball player and signed a football scholly........
Wolfpride....... We have baseball players that have signed to play at SEC schools. I don't think Cabotpantherman was implying to basketball too.
As for the new coach....... I personally don't think Reed or Jones is the answer. We need someone who has proven he can take a program from scratch and rebuild. Our offense and defensive philosophies need to be changed and we need someone who can get the kids to buy into that and we as fans will have to be a little patient. You cant change a 30 year old culture overnight.
I guess we'll find out in a few hours.......... the recommendation for the new coach will be given to the school board tonight per a school release!
Look like our coach is headed to Cabot..... Arky will find another good one soon!!!! Go Badgers
Did J. R. Eldridge announce to his team that he is leaving?

You're OK. It ain't Eldridge.
I didn't make myself clear. We have 2 current Juniors that have committed to play baseball at the SEC level. One to the Hogs and the other to Kentucky. They both committed after there freshman year when both started as freshmen when Cabot won state. The two for basketball are both big and fast. They all can help next year either at wideout and running back.

Great hire! This hire is coming full circle. Coach Malham worked for Scott's dad in Jacksonville and now Scott is taking over the helm from Malham. Read somewhere where Coach Reed wife is from Cabot. They have a son coaching at UCA which is only a 30 minute drive from Northern part of Cabot IE Greystone. I am sure that factored in the decision to leave El Dorado. I wander how more years Scott is planning on coaching?
Good hire!
Fantastic hire for the Panthers.

Very good hire for Cabot. In many ways Reed has a old school soul with a much more modern scheme approach. He is going to have to develop some players to expand the offense but it will happen fairly quickly I think.
Good hire!
I attended high school with him. He lived and breathed football, probably because he was the coaches (Bill Reed) son. I think this is a great hire by Cabot.
57 is pretty old.

Cabot is going have a new off season program since Reed will be there waiting on them next week. I know there is rumors on who he may bring. If it's Coach Vaughn which been with him for 12 years. I see him has a hot pick to be the new coach for El Dorado.

Yeah, I know they been playing each other for almost 4 years I think unless I'm wrong? Didn't know if they were going try play again or opt a different route since Reed is at Cabot now.

This year 2018 was the 3rd year in a row, so I was suspecting another one in Cabot for next year. Home and home series.
Has Cabot ever did any type of 7 on 7 during the summer? I know they aren't known to pass was wondering if they ever did do 7 on 7 last couple of years? If not Reed will have them busy in the summer with 7 on 7, which will help them out a lot.
Magnolia HC John Panter has resigned. Panter was Reed's DC at Eldo for the state title runs. Sources say he's headed to Cabot to join Reed

Cabot has hosted its own 7-on-7 league the last few years, about 10 dates per summer. Not ultra competitive. Usually just four or five other teams. They'd play games like any other league, but they used it more like a practice. No scoreboard or anything.
Teams were typically Hazen, England, Lonoke, McClellan, Beebe and sometimes Parkview

Instead of uniforms, I would be more worried about if the Fullback can line up outside or in the slot and catch a pass because there will be no more lining up 2 yards behind the line and taking a handoff in Reed's system. Shotgun, Pro Formation, Spread. That's what's coming
The Wild Thing Vaughn will be in Cabot soon.
