    Great paper to work for. They cover a big area but don't do a lot of in-person coverage outside a small 20-mile radius. All the small school stuff is handled over the phone.

    Because this is the first time I've visited in a couple of weeks and am somewhat out of the loop, please forgive me if I missed something, but does this opening mean the old prep guy got the 49ers gig with the paper?

    What's the time frame for this opening? Is it expected to be filled quickly or will it take some time? Has anyone been contacted yet?
