Don't mind the splitting either but that usually drops the pay for just HC only. It would take someone that is fully committed and involved to make Tarkington consistently competative. That is a hard ask when they can be an assistant coach 5 miles down the road for the same pay or more.

It is impossible to win in places like Tarkington unless you bring in a coach that is willing to stay for the long term.
Theses places are not plug an play situations.
A coach needs to be given time to establish a program, with expectations and trust, and develop his players his way.

Tomball's Oline is big and plays nasty. The QB is extremely athletic. They will go 4 wide just to run everyone off and then the qb will run. Defense isn't special. Special teams will onside at least 2 times and they will run a fake punt a couple of times. If PNG isn't careful on special teams, Tomball will steal 2-4 extra possessions. They have won multiple games over the past 2 seasons because of this. I personally don't have a dog in this fight. But Id be willing to bet Tomball will win this game by more than the talent disparity between the 2 teams.

Cleveland:
Trent Driver- Texas A&M
Joseph Smith - Louisiana Tech
Ivan Williams - Texas
Dennis Ellis - Boise State
Marcus Mallet - TCU
Cedric Reed - Texas 
Kevin Strong - UTSA

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.

It is a POLITICAL decision, made by a School Board that can't get out of their own way. 
I'm sure Vanover is a great coach, I've been told he is.
But, is he going to establish something that can last? Can he relate to the kids? 

Oh, you mean it would require the Superintendent and the School Board to do some due diligence and actually delve into an applicants character and vision. To decipher if this person has a plan for success. To figure out if he has the ability to lead a coaching staff and group of young men with respect. To decide if an applicant has the character necessary to earn the respect of his fellow coaches, administrators and players.
You mean the School Board and the Superintendents are lazy, they don't want to do their jobs and they don't have the GUTS to make tough decisions?

Can someone help West Hardin AD find him an assistant coach. This job is posted everyday.
 
Assist the football program and coach 2 additional sports. OL experience preferred but not required. Great classroom situation for a coach. This can be SPED or Health. We bring back 9 starters on Offense and 9 on Defense and dropped from 2a Div. 1 to 2a Div. 2.

Only one name you need to know.
Edward "Bubba" Arledge

Winning is a relative term.
Like in Livingston's case, they have been what 1-9 or 2-8 the last 4 years under Broussard?
If they bring in a Bubba Arledge and he goes 5-5 and finishes 4th in district and sneaks in the playoffs then has he won?
 

Bubba should have got the job 4 years ago and Livingston would not be in the shape they are in right now.

I'll keep banging the Bubba Arledge drum. He could come in and bring in numerous assistants with his connections from his years of coaching. He grew up right down the road in Cleveland. The kids and town are familiar with him too.

3 straight undefeated district championships. Back to Back State Quarter finalist. Yeah guess that qualifies as one good year.

If Bubba Arledge feels like being a head coach again, I think the Lions would be lucky to have him. He knows the town & he was pretty successful at Cleveland as the Head Coach. 

Is it me?  Or did anybody else hear laughter coming out of somewhere in the College Station ISD?

I will give y'all some perspective. I am a coach and a teacher. During football season I work 7 days a week, 80 hr work week. During baseball season I work 6 days a week at about 65-70 hours a week. I work through most holidays due to coaching a sport that plays during that holiday time teachers have off. Summers I get 1 maybe 2 weeks off, other than that I am working camps that are unpaid to allow athletes to get better. The money made from the camps goes straight back to the athletic program for the kid's. I make 59,000 a year with 10 years exp. and work at a decent paying 5a school not in y'all's area. People say that teaching is an easy job but can't deal with their kid's for more than 30 minutes at a time. As a coach I spend more time with some kid's than their parents do. It is my job to shape that child and mold them into a good, productive citizen. I enjoy what I do, but man do I think about getting out of the profession because I have to deal with some parents and community members that are ignorant like some on this board. I make less per hour than someone that works at Hobby Lobby, and deal with some ingrates that say I should make even less. I usually like to read what you all say on here whether it be good, bad, or indifferent. So when you realize you work for a corporation that probably in some way receives federal funding i.e. tax dollars we can all start debating your pay and how easy your job is.
 
P.S. I also have a BBA is Business, came out of college and couldn't get a sales job because the market was terrible. I don't have a crap degree as some state.

I knew quite a few guys on my team in high school that got diplomas because of having to remain eligible to play high school sports. Our coaches constantly checked our grades and stayed on us. Even out of season we were expected to pass. Those Coaches that can motivate the "Bad" kid to do his work when the rest of the teachers have made up their mind that this kid is not worth their time deserve ever cent and more. I know their are plenty of teachers that are doing their best and are in it for the right reasons. They try and reach every kid they can. However, some kids need that tough love of a coach to push the harder to reach kids. Beside we live in a Capitalist country. You want everyone to make the same? Move to a communist country.

Newton's offense has awoken.

If Navasota gets put in the district again then I'd go with them winning it. The UIL did it once, Im sure they wouldn't hesitate to do it again.

Im guessing Houston ISD will consolidate there schools as much as possible to save money and create all HISD districts. They will probably opt all of their 4A schools to 4A D1 which creates an 8 team district. They will probably bump all of their 5A schools to 5A D1 which creates another 8 team district. So that will do some major adjustments to the districts in region 3.

Thats pretty much what I was thinking it would turn out to be. That Waco game is gonna be a drive! Not sure they don't go north towards some of the schools that are south of the DFW area. Either way its a spread out district. Not like the good ole days of playing kids that you played little league against. Hows do you think the split with y'alls schools gonna affect your teams? I know y'all were playing with some monsters up at 6A. Is the opening of Lake Creek gonna drain some of your talent away at Montgomery next year?

Come on man! Y'all are hijacking my thread! Friggin people West of the Trinity, smh.
