new head coach Mike Morrissey resigned today from Stevenson. Family and personal issues but no great detail beyond that.

That was quick, so what’s the process now?
Great question not sure anyone saw this coming
I would imagine they go back to some of the other applicants but I’m sure a few of them will no longer be interested or do they just start the process over again?
What coach is available in March?That can handle a class 8A team with 100 kids on the varsity roster.First game Lincoln way east!!
Sometimes individuals from smaller metropolitan areas get cold feet when they see how much houses cost in the northern suburbs of Chicago. I don't know if he was originally from the Chicago area.Helicopter parents ?
Stuck with poor assistant coaches who teach at the school looking for free hats and shirts instead of helping out daily with the off season lifting ?
Better to find out early than invest a lot of time !
You almost need to promote from within at this point. Dunn left Marist in July, they moved up Dawzak who knew the kids and the playbook and has gone 11-1 and 11-2. Granted he had great talent to work with but I’m guessing Stevenson has plenty in the cupboard.With winning head coaching experience.
So this would drop his average stint per school to what, 1 school per year? Why was he hired in the first place...his resume was a revolving door. What, no one who knows the area was qualified enough for the job, had to go to Iowa to recruit a coach?

Perhaps try looking at a map before starting to talk shit.
Don’t you find it just a touch bit odd that he takes a gig then bails three weeks later only to retake his previous job?
Yes
Not sure he is in it for the long haul. Regardless of what is happening it is a poor decision on his part.
Morrissey is staying at moline as HC
I suppose most people would check out housing before accepting a job. I KNOW firsthand that some people do not. I was a finance director (retired now) of a Chicago suburb who served on hiring panels when department heads were being hired. We once had a candidate from Iowa for public works director that backed out of the job after accepting our offer. And we had two candidates (separate occasions) for our assistant village manager position (one from Texas and one from Wisconsin) back out of jobs after having accepted the offer. In all three cases the individuals stated they had not realized how expensive housing was in the Chicago area. I'm not saying it happens often. I worked for the suburb for 28 years. However, I stand by my statement that it does sometimes happen.You don’t think he was looking at housing in the area from the day he got a call offering an interview? If not, you’ve never applied to a job outside your immediate area before. Because most people would be checking out of curiosity the day they decide to apply.
