I know that Dubois is the Slot-t guru but I have a hard time believing that BC is better suited for a more spread or even a I  formation team. Their success came from misdirection and aggressiveness. They don't really have the kinda of athletes that will just line up and be better that you. Thats why the misdirection was perfect for them. Forced teams with better athletes to play a discipline type of defense and then BC would just punch you in the mouth. I really enjoyed watching their offence. 

Norris Taff was confirmed as the AD & Head football coach at Cleveland ISD board meeting last night.

Would that coach be Tommy Kaiser?

From what I’m hearing he’s at the school running things and putting his stamp on the program. But I guess as of right now he’s just the Interim AD. Not sure why they would bring someone in from outside the district to run things if they weren’t actually gonna hire them.

People I know are excited about him coming back. I just guess he wanted to come home. 

Looks like Cleveland already has their man. Norris Taff. He was on the staff in the late 90s and early 2000s. Wish him luck but the quality of athletes and the level of competition has definitely changed since his days in Cleveland.

8 weeks before 2-a-days start. That’s not a ton of time to put together a staff. Especially when the pay isn’t great. Gonna end up with young inexperienced coaches.

When will they announce? 

Any updates?

Wow! I thought New Waverly starting pay at $32K was low. How do they even get teachers? 

I'm sure this guy has forgotten more football than most will ever know. However I just don't see someone at the end of their career as a guy that you want establishing a program for years to come. I know the coaching profession is prone to turnover but that shouldn't be the goal. The goal in my mind would to hire someone that is enthusiastic about the prospect of coaching more the 3-4 years at your high school. I know that older coaches have a wealth of knowledge and experience, but I see many of them late in their career take a job and then retire 2-3 years later. There's something to be said about consistency.

His last year in Cleveland both the baseball and Softball team won a playoff game. That never happens in Cleveland. Not that he coached them but he was the AD and supported them.

From what I heard Rowe purchased them without Board Approval and then took the Nimitz Job. Bubba was told not to wear them because black was not a school color.  Arledge used them one time as a motivator in the first round of the playoffs. Which was their first playoff win in 15 years and their 2nd ever. I've heard there was some other stuff that he did that pissed off the Supt.  But from what I heard it sounded like the Supt and Board were on a witch hunt trying to get rid of him. He was an amazing AD! Cared about the other sports as well. Look at the success he's having with the track program at Crockett. I'm not saying that he's the greatest coach ever but he would be the type of coach that could improve the program at Livingston.

I always hear judge a coach by if they take a team and make them better. Bubba took a Cleveland team that was 11-20 the 3 seasons before he was the HC and then went 27-10. Until Tullos got there, Arledge was the winningest HC Cleveland ever had. Now Cleveland fired both of them so that tells you how smart Cleveland has been with keeping quality Coaches. 

Pretty sure Keel got hired as the OC at Splendora this offseason. Not that he wouldn’t leave for a head job.
