Cleveland County

For the Cleveland County folks that are interested. Looks like Gaffney hired their head coach this evening. Gaffney selected their offensive coordinator Donnie Littlejohn. Coach Littlejohn is a Gaffney alum. He beat out a great group of finalists in Daryl McFadden of Independence, Andy Capone of Weddington, and Nick Pelham of White Knoll. His name will be presented to the school board in their next meeting.

It was his to turn down.

I was told by a Gaffney fan that Sosebee may be one of the coordinators.

How does that man keep finding jobs?

'surprised' is a word that would be used by people close to the situation, especially with who all got interviews. Then add on that some of those names getting out that they interviewed, makes it challenging going back to their current schools. That's why I never would put the names out there. Hate to say it, but I give the current hire 2 years before they make another change.(my opinion)

Yeah I heard that they really like him as far as coaching and especially from his previous tenure at Greenville I believe. The off the field concerns made the job unrealistic for him as a head coach.

Yeah I was surprised that Gaffney publicized the finalists names. Well I don’t think Gaffney officially publicized the names but someone on the interview committee spoke to the local media immediately after the decision was made.

Maybe they did that on purpose, over disagreement on the hire. Letting people know who they could have had.

He's a fantastic coach of football. His offense is unrelenting and I enjoyed watching him run it at Crest very much. No hesitation in it. No play clock issues. Just give a hand signal and kept it rolling. Exactly how it should be.

His passion for material excess is what hurts him. That's a fact. But, you make him an offensive coordinator with the talent Gaffney has......... That would be tremendous. For them..
