Freshly removed from the most successful stint of his two-decade tenure as an Arkansas high school football coach, Brad Bolding is leaving Little Rock Parkview to return to the place where he endured possibly the lowest point of his coaching career a decade ago that resulted in a controversial – and highly publicized – exit.
In a rather stunning move, the North Little Rock School District announced on Thursday that Bolding will return to the same post he held from 2007-14, hoping he can revitalize a struggling program.
“Is it just not wild?” Bolding said in near disbelief himself on an episode of the Coaches & The Mouth podcast.
