Does anyone know anything about Ouachita Baptist University in Arkadelphia,AR? They have new coaches.
Original Post
New head coach is Chris Moddelmog from Fort Scott CC in Kansas. He took over from Scott Norwood who did an amazing job taking the program from one that won 10-15 games a year and was a bottom feeder in the Gulf South West to one four years later that lost the national championship game.
The school is a small town, about 9,000 people though it has two schools. Henderson State University is literally right across a two lane road from OBU. The university is average from an academic perspective and it is, as the name would suggest, a Baptist school. It is rather strict rule wise and it is a very conservative place in the middle of a very conservative area.
Coach Moddelmog's first class included a good number of JUCO players and I would assume that is a trend that will continue based upon his connections and where he has come from.
Coach Norwood was able to improve the facility and they have a nice field with a rather quaint setting.
