The high school in Conway is on the West Campus.<BR/><BR/>He said Monday morning, while going to his first period class, he was asked if he had heard the news. He said he had not.<BR/><BR/>Dylan then told me the news swirled throughout the East Campus all day. <BR/><BR/>At the end of the day, he caught the bus shuttle to the West Campus. This is his usual routine to go to football practice. Since the season is now over, the players have instead been handing in their equipment, jerseys, etc.<BR/><BR/>All the players met in the field house. Coach Smith came out and told them the news. He was asked last Tuesday to resign. He waited until Friday to turn in his resignation. He did not want to quit, but was essentially forced to do so. <BR/><BR/>His voice began to crack, so he turned around and left and headed back to his office. His former players then filed out, one by one.<BR/><BR/>So now the rumors are the new head football coach for the Wampus Cats will be William Hardiman from Little Rock Parkview, or Scott Schwartz, who is currently on the Conway high school coaching staff.Paul Eilershttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03443012393151401891noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6877655127944205011.post-24531381666867990322008-11-17T23:30:00.000-06:002008-11-17T23:30:00.000-06:00Hmmm.
