I have always heard that the original plan was for his son to take over after they got it started. I suspect that is the current plan (unless something changed).

Go after an OC or DC from the following schools 

Klein Collins

Atascocita 

Summer Creek

C E King

Willis (offensive especially)

This is the best thing for the program.  Now go out, take your time and hire the best person available!

I’ll tell you right now one guy that has been a huge part of Coach Miller’s success at Spring and Willis is Coach Fitzgerald OC/OL/AHC. Lots of wins and he knows Miller’s offense! He’d be a great hire

Maybe so.  But, again, take your time and find the best available.  If it's this individual then so be it!

Pretty sure his son will be the new HC. That was the plan when he took the job. Unless something changed and the decided they want to go a different route.

Something changed, Jim Holley was the AD and him and Dougald McDougald had a long history. Plunk the new AD does not have the same history. With that being said Chris McDougald could still get the job, but it’s not the foregone conclusion it was when Jim Holley was calling the shots.

The fact they posted the job on THSCA tells me this isnt a done deal...

As well as it should be.  Best thing to do is take their time and find the best coach available!  No more buddy deals!

It’s not a done deal. New AD has made one hire and went and got the former Galveston Ball coach for New Caney High School, so not afraid to go out on the market and find someone.

Eh, I once saw a 4A D1 district right down the street from WF post their AD/HC job on THSCA with a starting salary of $84k. Clearly an attempt to say they posted with no real intention of going outside the fold for replacement. We will see what WF does.

$84,000 for AD/HC is an insult
