Is Bloom Carroll open or are they hiring from within?

Yep. That’s what I heard. Meigs is a lot closer to where his parents live, compared to BC. Pretty cool opportunity for him to choose a spot that makes the grandparents watching his son more possible.

Coach Davis parents live in Athens I believe. Ryan graduated from Alexander and played basketball at Kentucky Christian.

Great hire for Meigs !!! Coach Davis IS one of the best coaches ABOVE or BELOW the Lancaster-Dixon line … throw in his son 6-8 Carson who was outstanding vs the MSL wars as a starter … the combo combined with what Meigs brings to the table puts the Marauders in the top 15 in SEO preseason easily … great hire !

Rumors are Ryan Davis from Bloom Carroll will be the next head coach. His 6'8 son played for him at BC, he's a big boy.

Whether Meigs is D-IV or D-V next year, they are top 15 in the state by division, and perhaps much higher than that.

If this is the case the board members would need their heads examined.
Canned a coach that went 16-6 while dealing with a ton of injuries to starters.
Now they have the opportunity to hire one of the best coaches around who has a 6'8 son who is an incredible player!

Coach Davis is a very good coach who gets the most out of his kids.

His son will play low D1 (big and can shoot it with 2 years left). Pairing him with what Meigs has returning makes one very special team. Honestly, top 5 in SEO. Could end #1 by years end.

The major question is…. Can Meigs handle Davis’s coaching style? He’s known to be very hard to play for, and Meigs is known as a political nightmare in many aspects. Can the Board handle this type of hire? Can the community?

I hope so. Because it’s an absolute homerun hire for Meigs.

What does "very hard to play for" mean in this case?
