I’m little shocked by this. Huge loss for NoGa! Who will be the next man at the helm of the wildcats.

Wonder where is going? That's a tuff place to win... conference is rough!

That job will take an incredible coach to win in that conference. NG's schedule is brutal to say the least. I don't see them winning any games next year with the current schedule.

I seem to remember he played at WCU? But to leave and take a pay cut at college, he must really want to be a college coach. WCU pays crap.

Have you seen the salaries that coaches in NC make? It couldn’t be much lower, especially coming from Gaston County.

Yes. Taught and coached past 22 years. Have you seen the salaries of coaches at WCU? Even worse for most assistants.

His note to his team and staff labeled the move as a "lifelong dream".....

Worked there for three years tough place to win. NC teachers pay is terrible Gaston is not even on par with the better paying districts. Also to work in Gaston County being of a certain background will help. Now it is close to Charlotte and there is stuff to do there

I have seen the salaries at WCU and Gaston County and they are both terrible. WCU now has one of the largest salary pools in their conference though and I bet it would be about even with Gaston County pay.

Boy, he must have wanted out of Dallas in a bad way!

Boy, he must have wanted out of Dallas in a bad way!

From my understanding he's been wanting to get in the college rankings and saw this as getting his foot in the door

You gotta start somewhere. Very few start out as head coaches.

 

[SPRedRaider_anon]

Good for him for understanding it takes hard work and starting on the bottom is nothing to be ashamed of and rather a feat to be celebrated.

North Gaston hire Dan Rothwell as their new HC. He has coached in Michigan and most recently in Gaston/Charlotte areas. Good luck coach at NG
