Matt Poe not a candidate for SHS job
Pottsboro head football coach Matt Poe says he is not in the running
for the vacant head football coach/athletic director job at Sherman
High School.<br>
<br>
Poe said Tuesday he will not apply for the open position, saying it's
very late in the off-season and that he enjoys coaching at Pottsboro.<br>
<br>
Poe's name came up in early discussion over who might be a likely
candidate to replace Drew Young at SHS. Poe was an assistant coach for
a decade in Sherman on the staffs of both Ronnie Tipps and Young,
serving as Young's offensive coordinator before accepting the Pottsboro
head coaching job in 2006.<br>
<br>
Pottsboro, which had lost 29 games in a row (not counting a forfeit
win) at the Class 3A level before Poe took over, shattered school
records last season with a 13-2 campaign and a trip to the 2A Division
II state semifinals. But the Cardinals graduated all but one starter
off that team, leading to speculation Poe might take an opportunity to
move elsewhere.<br>
