1. What are the most predominent offensive and defensive schemes used in ND and MT?
2. I am somewhat interested in moving closer to home. I am currently in TX and my wife and my families live in Eastern MT. We started a family this past year, we are considering moving closer to home.
My wife and I have agreed to move if it is the right situation.
The right situation to me is a Head Job at a high school of about 400 or more.
What will I need on my resume to be considered for this type of job in MT or ND.
3. Will having coached in TX have any influence on getting hired as a HC up north? ( not trying to be arrogant but the whole country basically looks to Texas as one of the, if not the top High School Football State)
thanks guys

I'd say the most predominent offense scheme is the I. Defensivley I think the 5-3 is probally used most.
As far as becoming a head coach. The way it seems to work up here is that you are hired as a teacher and if you happen to be able to coach it is a plus. I hardley ever see a head coaching position advertised.
The best thing is to get a teaching position at a school where a head coach has recently left.

I was kind of browsing across the internet and found a USA Today article about a ND coach named Fridley who was like the national high school coach of the year once and is a hall of fame coach. Sounded a bit like he's been in a small town for a lot of his career and built a great program. Anyone know his secret? I suspect it's a combo of a lot of things. My brother in law just got a smalltown coaching job and I'd like to let him know a little about this guy who supposedly built a great program. I'm sure there are others, but this one attracted my attention.

I think you are talking about Fred Fridley of Watford City. I do not know much about him or his secrets. However, in ND towns seem to specialize in sports. Watford City is a bit of a football town so I assume that contributed to his success. Irish, you could probally have your brother e-mail him for some advice. If you go to www.sendit.nodak.edu and go to the school websites link the school usually has staff e-mail posted. another small town coach that has been succesful that would be worth talking to would be Larry Sandy of Velva. Velva has won 5 of the last 6 Class A state titles |
