Does anyone have any insight on these openings? Any names leaking out?
Rumor in Madison is MC interviewed Herbert Davis, who is one of the best in the state at any level right now.

Devin cooper at Scott Central will get an interview at Petal. As will Tyler Peterson. I expect Madison central to hire the guy at Northwest Rankin.
Prob not but he will get an interview. And he’s quite the impressive interview and has gotten some attention already from some important people there. But I do agree it’s unlikely. I will say this... whenever he does move on and someone takes a chance on him they will have one of the best coaches in the state of MS. Listening to him talk defense is one of the most impressive things I’ve ever heard.
I have someone that?s pretty close to the Hoover program. I?ll ask.
According to someone pretty close to the Hoover program, Niblett is ready to leave. He has tried to get smaller college jobs. He has his years in for retirement in Alabama. They have not heard anything specific, but they said they would not be surprised at all.
Brandon's new coach was at Pelahatchie 2 years ago wasnt he? It's about who you know
Who you know always matters.
But Sam did an incredible job at Ridgeland. He took over a meh program (at best) and was in north state in year two. Had he flopped at Ridgeland, he wouldn't have kept climbing.
He was in North State year 1. This will be there 3rd coach in 3 years. (RHS that is)
NW Rankin posts head coach/ AD job open. I?m assuming Collums is headed to Madison Central.
Steve is reporting Toby Collums to Madison Central
NW Rankin, Petal, and Ridgeland are open
Doesn?t Coach Davis have his time needed for retirement in the state system? If so, I can?t imagine him going back. Barring some monster payday he couldn?t turn down somewhere, he is in a very good situation at MRA. His local talent pool in the Madison area is already huge. Also, with the way they are winning, the schedule they are playing, and the offense they run he is going to continue to attract players from outside the immediate location.
I like coach Davis and was coached by him. He is a great coach, don't get me wrong but he is also great at jumping ship if the talent level is falling off a bit and landing at a school that is loaded up. He has followed Termie Land from Heritage to Pillow and now MRA. I know he left termie for a bit and went down to BA for a bit I believe.
I don't think Herbert has a ton of time in the MS retirement system. I know he had short stints at Ocean Springs and at Lawrence County but I think the rest of his career has been at private schools.
Other than for retirement purposes I can't see him leaving MRA right now. He's a hero there for beating Prep.
Herbert isnt leaving MRA until he has to. He gets paid well and its easy to win there. He has no public school retirement.
Cooper is in the drivers seat for Northwest. Could be named early next week.
