I truly believe that Coach Noble was honest when he said he had to put family first. After all it's a business and you have to take "promotions " when they come along. Leslie showed they were prepared to win any bidding war. Nobody ran him off. He's being smart with opportunities.
As for his replacement? I thought you could count out a couple but now I'm not sure about that. I think Breathitt will end up with a top notch coach. Credit to the administration for taking it seriously and putting the program first.

i've always been a fan of coach Noble, so this isn't a criticism, but he's taking over one of the worst teams in the region in a district that includes Perry and Hazard. He's also leaving the team that would have likely been ranked No. 1 in the region next year. He always does very well with underdogs, as he proved at Buckhorn, but it's far from a slam dunk as far as a smart move.
