It won't be as high paying anymore though.

Greenwood District 50 has opted to separate the HC and AD jobs. They gave McMahon an ultimatum at Emerald, so he chose AD (higher pay and he lost the program, so it didn't make sense for him to stay on as HC).
He chose the AD job because it's a more secured position that he already knew how to operate correctly and plus he is nearing retirement soon. At the head coach position, he was not winning so they were going to get rid of him.

Those coaches are at great programs right now. Both coaches are successful at what they are doing at each school. Both schools are paying well and their communities are producing top caliber players. It would be crazy for them to leave unless they want to prove a point that they can win at Greenwood too.

He chose the AD job over retirement, essentially.

This way he can leave his mark on the head coaching hire and also protect his son and Sorrow. It's a joke.

Lots of it, but if it's behind him, then let him come back.

He'd turn it around

Interviews have begun, at least over at Emerald.

That's why I was shocked to see another Emerald thread pop up -- I thought they'd hired someone immediately...which is what McMahon wants.

Both postings are slated to close next Friday (12/20).

Gutshall has a very good team year in and year out and I don't think they have had a loosing season in the last 15 years or so and if they have then that was because they were down with injuries and other stuff
