I was quick to dispute him, but he was not about to back down. He is familiar with both scenarios, and talked about the fact that, at Fishers, you are competing for players with HSE and Carmel. While at Noblesville you may not have history on your side, but your kids are your kids (for the most part like any one horse town). His biggest point was that there are some 8-900 youth in the feeder system. If that is the case, that is incredible. Someone set me straight! I think Noblesville has the potential to be a better job than Fishers because of the reasons you stated. Plus community support is pretty solid even for a program that has been downtrodden for so long. Facilities are on Noblesville's side too with a beautiful weight room and plenty of practice space. Their stadium lacks in comparison though to most, if not all, 5A/6A programs. 3000+ students, a good feeder program, great community involvement, and high socioeconomic value should have Noblesville's program better than what they have been lately. However, with Fishers and HSE, you literally have to convince your middle school players to go to your high school. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coach P Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 The Big Kahuna! Larry "Bud" Wright Noblesville Job is almost filled. Kevin would be a good fit at Fishers. If he was there, the competition for athletes would hurt HSE, not Fishers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 I won't pretend to know Kevin personally but I just have a hard time seeing him make the jump back to high school coaching in Indiana. I could be wrong as family trumps everything but professionally, he has reached the mountain top of high school coaching (if you want to refer to it as that, which is a whole separate thread) by leading IMG. I could definitely see him at the collegiate level next. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good call I could see that. Or something like UIndy. On the flip side, Wright has been working with 4 and 5 star athletes for the past 5 years. Franklin and UIndy are 1 star and 2 star. Is there a 1 star ranking? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coach Nowlin Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 update on Noblesville will be announced when Noblesville announces it. and not before (or any other credentialed media service, which to my knowledge is no one on here) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there a better coaching challenge out there? Taking no star athletes, coaching them up, and winning championships?? Other than the challenge, I have no idea why else he would want to coach at Franklin or UIndy because he is DEFINITELY overly qualified for both of those jobs. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MICFan34 Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 IU's offensive coordinator just became the HC at Fresno State. Is the IU offensive coordinator position a potential landing spot? 👀 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coach Nowlin Posted December 17, 2019 Share Posted December 17, 2019 Sad they had to send this out at 4:06 a.m. this morning instead of letting the Sharpe family and Noblesville do its thing. Oh well. They win the NOTHING BURGER for being 1st to "report" WHME 46 Sports Today at 4:02 AM When the Noblesville school board meets tonight, I fully expect them to hire former John Glenn and LaPorte coach David Sharpe as the Millers’ new head football coach.

Coach Sharpe has relocated to central Indiana, that was not going to change: Coach Sharpe and his wife are very much involved with Riley Hospital in memory of their son, Jacob, the move to Central Indianapolis area 2 years ago was motivated by this.

It would be an interesting move for IU. Wright does have a connection now to a number of top recruits at IMG, as well as players he had recruited who ended up not going to IMG. Allen has recruited well in Florida, this could elevate that. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest DT Posted December 18, 2019 Share Posted December 18, 2019 (edited) Note the perfect alignment of the Laporte offensive line. Flat backs. Even splits. Very precise. Reminds me of Moore's Wing T at CG. Everything working in unison. Every player always doing their job. Very few missed assignments.

Looks to me like 1 OL and 6 guys lining up in ‘no man’s land.’ To each his own, I guess. Glad I don’t have to scheme to stop it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
