Cole says he has accepted JD job; MPS official says no recommendation has been made

L.C. Cole
Montgomery, AL  -  L.C. Cole, the former Alabama State head football coach, said he has accepted the head coaching position at Jeff Davis High School.  Montgomery Public Schools senior communication officer Tom Salter, however, said in an email that Cole is not an employee of the Montgomery Public Schools.

Salter said in order for a person to be hired, the superintendent must to make a recommendation to the board of education during a board meeting. The majority of the board must vote on a personnel report to affirm the superintendent's recommendation. When asked what the next step would be, Salter said Thursday that the next board meeting is scheduled for June 28.

"However, it is possible that there could be a called meeting earlier than that date, not specifically for this hire, but for a number of personnel items," Salter said. Cole said he interviewed for the position with a four-person committee. Cole said a member of the committee called him back later and offered him the job and he accepted it.
