This is what happens when the locals allow a new superintendent to come and in and get rid of the only coach in the last two decades who could get his team to line up and play good football...You'd think the good folks of Coldspring would've known what they had after watching all of the bad years from the late 90's to mid to late 2000's....It reminds me of the old saying that those who ignore history are destined to repeat it...

Don't know how many times I've heard people talk about all of the great talent that Coldspring has had in the past but had no one to take advantage of it...When they finally get a guy who knows how to take advantage of it they get full of themselves and think that the current success is due to talent and not the result of great coaching and that they can just get anyone to come along and continue the success...

The last superintendent (Gibson who is now at Marshall) and every member who was on the school board when the decision was made to let him demote and ultimately run off Barbay are directly responsible for the current state of the football program.

It was surreal to hear tonights broadcast team bring up Barbays name in the 3rd qtr of tonights game while openly questioning the future fate of the current head coach...It was also priceless hearing said play by play guy refer to himself as a friend of Barbay when he was one of the people on the school board at the time who thought Coldspring wouldn't have any problem finding another coach as good or better than Barbay...Good stuff...Unfortunately as is so often the case adults find a way to screw things up for the kids...
