Well it's the off season.
Word today is Rex has resigned as Head Coach. Not sure what his role will be if any in Football, but I wish him well.
See what happens, but changes in store for 2021.

The Henderson Coaching Dynasty can be compared to a movie trilogy. The first was a classic and great. The second was just as good or maybe even better...and the third had everyone scratching their heads.

Well hard to follow Cooper Henderson, I mean he's a legend, nobody could live up to that, one of the best this state has ever seen. Mike Phipps as well. I think in my discussion with Ronnie Sowell, Phipps had 7 Titles in 10 years, we've been spoiled. Guys like that don't just fall out of trees. Rex been with the program a long time, I think he be a good assistant for anyone if he want's to keep coaching, like anything some coaches are real good in support role, but just doesn't work out as head coach. So what are the thoughts on who will be the next head coach? I have my thought but I'm curious what others would say first

As the old saying goes, be careful what you wish for because now it exists. A lot of people on here wanted this. Well... there you go.

If that "rumor" is true about the '74 staff coming back.... not a bad move at all. My vote regardless is BRING BACK THE BLACK UNIFORMS!!

I think Rex is a very talented offense coach/play caller. He will be fine, if he wants to continue coaching. I would assume, that the top candidates from the last round would still be top candidates (if they are still interested). I would think Willingham and Maupin top the list...... but wouldn’t it be great if Cooper came back?

Maupin checks every box you can think of, former Bulldog, Artesia QB at that, State Champion, former assistant. I don't know much about Los Lunas football program history, but since he's been there 2 State Title appearances the past 2 years, never thought of as a serious threat until he got there. He's turned them into winners, so he's proved it already. I figure if he wants it, it's his.

Those guys have to be 70+ years old. HEY I resemble that remark. Well that Coaching staff has two that has passed away, Rex Gates and TW Harvey. Nik Norton is in the Mountains climbing mountains everyday. Vernon Asbill just had 2 knee surgeries, Mike Phipps is happily retired and Ronnie Maskew is in the Mountains of Ruidoso and still working the last I heard. Myself, I still travel the world working with clients and having a blast. We had our day and we are very proud of what we accomplished.

Hey Coach Allen......One of the names I keep hearing tossed around as a possible replacement for Rex Henderson as the new Bulldog HC is John "Speedy" Faith. I hear he coached in Texas.......Shallowater is what I heard. Name is not familiar to me, but that's the name I keep hearing. JUST KIDDING! But wouldn't that be a HOOT? Do you think Speedy could ever bring himself to wear Orange, lol. Also wondering........just wondering........why I haven't heard the name "Tom Harvey" floated around? Serious question.

Speedy is coaching in Denver City and making a ton of $$$. Tom Harvey is DC in Andrews and would also have to take a pay cut to come to Dog Country

Is Speedy the HC in Denver City? Tom is an assistant I believe. And by the way, the thing I posted about Speedy coming here was a joke. But I just couldn't resist.

Speedy is coaching Linebackers and Tom is DC in Andrews. I think the main point I was trying to make is the amount of money they are making in Texas

I think the main point I was trying to make is the amount of money they are making in Texas So you said yesterday that the announcement of the new coach would be forthcoming "today"........which by the clock is "yesterday". I have been searching high-and-low......and I have seen NOTHING. Not on the internet....not in the Artesia news paper.......so when can we expect to find out "officially"

Conspiracy theory, the job isn't posted yet, does that mean cooper henderson going to step back in? wouldn't need to post the job if so.
I think there is a chance this could happen, but most likely small chance.
