Lepche has left St Francis

Spartanalum,

Well, you might like to hear a bunch of kids that said they wouldn't come back to the program next year are going to play now that the old coach quit.

There are a few other small details, but I can't say what they are now.

Thats great news!! Praying for the best.

 

[Cat Box]

Would love to know who is on the "short list". Wonder who is in their Top 5 candidates?

 

[Simon "GHOST' Riley]

I also had it confirmed there were slightly over 220 testers.

 

[TonPlugZeroLock]

Zero sense of urgency. With "recruiting", ehhhh admissions process, you're not getting a darn kid in this class. Furthermore the off season? Whos running workouts? Kids buy in? Lets move! Hire somebody from Montini, the formula works, and get this thing going. Or forget Montini, hire somebody from Naz, Benet, IC, one of the thriving catholic programs in the area!! Theres 100.

I understand the conversion rate is 72%.

Their conversion rate is 72% which equates to about 158 students. In 2011 they had 260 test. 200 new freshman is a solid number.

My understanding is they may start next week, that their have been 0 interviews yet.

Not according to someone who's been interviewed, maybe I misunderstood but I don't believe so.

There have been zero live interviews.

 

[Spartanalum13]

There maybe some unofficial poking around.

None live.

 

[SiuCubFan8]

They have talked to people, maybe not formal or in person.

 

[Bling_Diesel]

The Inside sources say Bob McMillian (ole Chicago Rush player and coach) in the running for Head Coach at SFHS. Also Lepsche now announce OC at St. Olaf.

 

[Cross Bones]

Ghost,

Total test takers were around 175!! Not 235. Last year we had around 172 with 80 being males. The numbers are similar this year. The numbers for the past two years are down as Francis typically gets 200 new freshman. The problem has been when we get 200 only 80 are males. Puts the male sports at a huge disadvantage. The multiplier takes total school population, not total males.

Seems like a great problem to have...

How do you think they got Lee Corso and Bobby Burt Reynolds to give FSU a shot in the first place.

 

[TonPlugZeroLock]

Talked to an applicant yesterday. Said he hasnt heard anything but doesnt believe anyone has.

 

[CoachHansen05]

Hanson,

Ventrelli was never the head coach. He came to the school to teach social studies after he retired at DGN a few years back. I think he helped out around 2004 or 2005 for a year but he only stuck around for a year or two.

I think he permanently retired a year or two ago.

Thank you.

godfather,

I don't know yet. The guy I have been talking to had been a real d^*k and won't tell me names or number of people.

I have heard that they have 8-9 , but have not set up interviews yet. I know one candidate was told by the AD that it will be another week because "he is crazy busy."
You would think that this would be a priority for the Ad. Not one interview has been scheduled, but numerous candidates have followed up and have been told the same thing. Interviews have not started. Ad uses a committee and has not finalized his committee. It might have made sense to get your committee set up in January. I don't get it.

I don't think your sources are very accurate.

 

[SiuCubFan8]

I don't think your sources are very accurate.

I would agree.

I know they aren't.

 

[Spartanalum13]

This would be a first. There is a ton of bad info on this being circulated. What I do know is two of the better candidates have not been contacted. But then again everyone could be wrong.

 

[Spartanalum13]

I know they aren't.

I guess we will wait and see

Well since I know someone that has been interviewed I can say my source is good. 7-8 interviews, will be done by tomorrow morning.

 

[Simon "GHOST' Riley]

I would agree.

The AD does have a committee and it has been together for a few weeks.

You were correct my source was wrong. Sorry for the bad info.
