I am going to declare here and now that if and when CU needs to hire a football coach any time in the 2030's, Grossnickle should be the first, last and only candidate.... :thumbsup:

CU Commit (and 3-sport athlete) DeVaughn Thornton is in the 5A state track finals this weekend for the Long Jump.

I can't seem to figure out the schedule, but here it is:

http://chsaa.org/sports/track/pdf/20094A5AHEATSHEETS1150.pdf

Top of page 11 of 12 pages...

Also noted that Kenny Bell of Fairview is on the same page, in the finals for High Jump. He's class of 2010 --- I read somewhere that CU is looking at him as RB next year, but don't see it now. Maybe wishful thinking.

Kain Coulter made finals for Triple Jump.

bumping DeVaughn's thread because I'm a huge fan and it's scheduled to disappear on 6/13/09 if not active.

Good for him, good for those kids.

It's hard for a school like Overland to complete against schools that have more athletes and more resources but I'd love to see him have some success there.

As someone who has worked along side a number of different high school head coaches I can tell you they don't do it for the money. If you look at how much they get paid compared to the hours involved the per hour compensation is the worst paying extra job they could get.
