It seems a little late to be asking this, but what is happening at San Ramon and California High Schools and aren't there a few others waiting to fill their spots?
Cal High hired Eric Belleci, a former DLS and St. Mary's player who was most recently an assistant at James Logan and before that Freedom. I believe SRV is still taking applicants, even though spring practice has already started. Miramonte also has an opening that I don't believe has been filled.

The search if finally over.
California High principal Mark Corti announced today that James Logan defensive coordinator Eric Billeci has been tabbed as the next football coach.
Billeci played at De La Salle and later at Saint Mary’s College before getting into teaching and coaching immediately following that.
He has served as the defensive coordinator at Freedom under Kevin Hartwig and most recently under George Zuber at Logan for the past three years.
Billeci is a PE teacher at James Logan — Cal does not have any teaching jobs open for next year at this time.
He is expected to bring a power-type running game as the base offense, something that rising-senior offensive lineman Max Schultz said the team is happy about.
“That’s pretty much what we were last year, we’re definitely happy to be a running team,” Shultz said.
Billechi replaces former coach Tony Sanchez, who compiled a 35-21 record over the past five seasons. During Sanchez’ tenure Cal won its first North Coast Section playoff game and advanced to the NCS 4A championship game in 2007.
Sanchez left after accepting the head coaching position at Nevada state power Bishop Gorman-Las Vegas in early March.
Strength and conditioning coach Sean Manuel, who was a finalist for the head coaching job, will remain with the program.

Was there even an article about the hiring at CHS? It just seems like there has been no real coverage...
