The Nowata School Board discusses the vacant head football coach position during a regular meeting on Monday evening.

 

Superintendent Mindy Englett says a process is in place as to how the search will be conducted.

 

Former head football coach Chance Juby was dismissed by the board on Dec. 29, 2025, after felony charges were filed against him in Rogers County. Juby had been the head coach of the Ironmen since 2022.

 

Superintendent Englett reported approximately 10 applicants have shown interest in the position.

 

Englett says the district is looking for a coach with certain quallities.

 

The interview process will begin next week. The board hopes to have a candidate selected by the end of January or the start of February.
