All Concho Valley Head Coaching Vacancies have been Filled

SAN ANGELO— The Concho Valley has filled all the open head coaching jobs for the upcoming football season.

A new year means new faces at many schools not only in the Concho Valley, but the entire state of Texas. Naturally, the career choice to go into coaching is either a rough one or a fantastic one. Coaches get fired or poached for other schools. Sometimes extenuating circumstances pushes coaches out. Either way, every head football coaching vacancy has now been filled in the Concho Valley.

Now, Whitmire has accepted the head football coaching position after Boles’ retirement.
