Ouachita High School has called a 2 pm press conference for today to announce Jeff Fitzgerald as their new head football coach.


Not at all who I thought OPHS would hire. This is very, very interesting.

I'm hearing that he's a good hire and will get the kids to play very hard.

The word on the street is that they originally offered the job to former Ouachita coach Mike Vallery. Well part of his stipulation was bringing former Ouachita QB Todd Garvin over from WM to be OC and then turning things over to him after 3 years. I actually figured it would be the OC Larry Foster or David Nordman. I don't know anything about Fitzgerald. Hopefully he's a good hire.

Yeah, i heard Vallery was the first call as well.....doesn't surprise me that his old friend Randall Garvin tried to get a favor from him. That's typical old school Ouachita politics there, I'm glad Todd Guice nipped that shite in the bud.

FYI, Todd Garvin is a fine young asst coach at WM with a bright future....but he should get a huge job like this on merit, not because of his dad's old golfing buddy
