In Linden, Texas, a series of surprising events has unfolded within the local high school football program. Just last week, the program experienced a whirlwind of coaching changes that are almost unbelievable. In a span of just 48 hours, the team went through three head coaching changes, and they are now preparing for their fourth.
It all began when Jason Ferguson decided to resign after the team started the season with a disappointing 0-2 record. Following his departure, assistant coach JD Russell stepped in as the interim head coach. However, less than two days later, Russell changed his mind and also resigned from the position.
The school’s superintendent, Rex Burks, then took on the role of interim head coach. His goal was to keep the team from forfeiting their upcoming game against Hughes Springs. Despite his efforts, Linden-Kildare suffered a heavy defeat, losing 54-0. After this setback, Burks returned to his superintendent duties, leaving the team in need of yet another head coach.
Now, the football program has made yet another change, bringing in Jeremy Hogan, who was previously the baseball coach, to take over the football team for the remainder of the season. This latest decision marks the fourth head coach for the Linden-Kildare program in just one week. Hogan will serve as the interim head coach as the team attempts to regroup for their future games. According to reports, this series of rapid changes has drawn significant attention, highlighting the challenges being faced within the program.
As high school football remains a passionate topic in Texas, fans and players alike are eager to see how the Linden-Kildare team will handle this turbulent situation and who will step up next to lead the way.
