North Vermilion High searching for head football coach

Joe Heintz was named as the head coach of the North Vermilion High football team in April 2023. However, he resigned from his position a year later in April 2024.
Reportedly, he will go back to Teurlings High School in Lafayette, where he had previously been coaching for over 15 years.

Heintz turned in his resignation last week to North Vermilion Principal Denise Lotief. She wished him well.
Lotief did confirm that Heintz is no longer the football coach and said the coaching/teaching job will be open on Monday and close the following Monday. 
The Meridional attempted to call Heintz on Thursday but was unsuccessful.
During his first and only year at North Vermilion, Joe Heintz’s led the team to a 2- 8 record, with notable victories over Erath and LaGrange.
This is the second time in a row that Heintz has left a football program after only one season. Before being hired as the NV head coach, he was at Pine Prairie High School, where his team went 0-10.
Heintz replaced Brett Blakey, who resigned after leading the Patriots to a 6-7 record and the Division II non-select quarterfinals, where he lost to West Felciana. Blakey is now an assistant football coach at Vermilion Catholic.
The school will also be looking for a head boys’ basketball coach. Nolan Theriot resigned last week to accept another position in the school system.
