First of all I want to thank everyone on the forum. Using many of your ideas and creations, I was able to secure a 2nd interview for my first head coach position. What started out as 12 applicants is now down to two. On Friday I will be interviewing with the Superintendent, Principal, AD, and a board member. What should I expect going into this second interview? Should I present the same materials in my portfolio?

Thanks guys.

Expect questions on fundraising, budgets, team discipline, experience with tasks such as ordering and equipment upkeep, staffing, how you will deal with the academic requirements of your players. Be ready to talk money, organization, and basically anything non X's and O's. Other coaches may disagree with me, but if you made it here, they are comfortable with your ability to coach--they are seeing who is going to be the best program manager.

I go in for my 2nd interview tomorrow at 2:00 p.m. I actually feel better about this one than the 1st round. I feel much more prepared thanks to "the packet".

I really felt like I hit most of the questions right on. I had some difficulty with the budget questions. But I guess if you have never been a head coach before you wouldn't know much about a football budget.

Good luck coach!
