Kirbyville Trivia Time

There is a small school just on the other side of Texas line called Merryville that has not been successful in over 20 years and for the first time since same has made the playoffs.  They not only made the playoffs but have home field advantage and ranked 14th in state.  Who is their HC, DC, and OC?  What style offense do they run and what type of program have they installed in school with historically limited talent?

Heres a few hints in case anyone out there is stumped....

*  Its the same program that was learned and molded around the Barbays in Newton every year is a state contender and still successful and is favored to win state this year in Newton.

* Its the same system was brought to Now 5A State Champions Ennis TX

* its the same system that was brought to Kirbyville and saw decade of playoff runs and two state appearances

and my hint on the coaches:  They all 3 would have taken the current position but was either told don't even apply or did apply and was not even considered for the job?

No HC is Randy Jones, OC is David Ford, and DC is Corky Brister,  they all just recently left Kville to go to Merryville.  All three permanent residence in Kirbyville and took the job in Merrryville cause its close enough to drive and did not have to relocate.  They have established the same programs and standards they brought and established in Kirbyville.  They are now a part of brining a town with 20 to 30 years of losing seasons and failure to state ranked and playoff football.  

Kirbyville current board and Admin thought we needed a new direction in Kirbyville and that directions looks like incompetent coaching, disappointed and frustrated players across the board, and a 3 win team that will most likely not even make the 4th place playoff spot.   

and that's being nice about it!!!

The Kirbyville coaching staff may not be great, maybe not even good, but the talent at Kirbyville is down. The kids play that game as well, and the players are not as talented as in years past. Blame the coaches and the less talented kids. If they coaching sucked but the talent was still the level it has been, they would easily be making the 2nd,3rd, 4th spot. But they ain't, they kids aren't as good.

    • That there’s not a single thread on the fact that the Republican nominee is on trial for paying off a porn star with whom he had an affair while the future First Lady was carrying said nominee’s child.    I remember back when the dirty, no-good Dems sacked Gary Hart over something similar. Same thing with John Edwards and later Anthony Weiner.    But y’all keep pretending God is on your side, lol. 
    • I hear what you’re saying, BUT… that hammers the hell out of poor people and the ones with multiple properties don’t eat any more than the poor ones. In fact, you’d basically just be taxing a lot of peoples’ EBT payments. The government  can’t get ahead by taxing what they’re already borrowing to give to people.    I think well off people should pay more… but the scale as it exists is broken.    For the sake of argument, my mom’s house in Groves is valued at $125k. 2/1/1 on a slab.  Her tax bill is $850/year. Without exemptions, her bill would be 3200. It’s right on JCAD’s website. The problem is this…. If someone tries to rent out an identical house, they’d expect to get, what… $1200/month? If you take into account that homeowners/windstorm/flood is a minimum of another $2k per year, you’d need $5k a year just to cover the taxes and insurance. That’s four months (1/3 of the year) just to cover those costs, not counting a potential mortgage payment. But then everybody cries about how expensive rents are… you can’t tax the hell out of non-homestead property to make up for gifts given to homeowners in the form of big tax cuts. It just doesn’t work.    Ten acres in Lumberton? I’ve got a buddy with 10 acres in Lumberton on HWY 69. Prime property… it’s his retirement plan. Sale it one day and cash in. The CAD decided that it no longer qualifies for a special use valuation (timber) and stripped his “exemption.” His 2023 tax bill jumped from $25 to $22,000…. It’s insane.  
    • I’m curious what happened… they aren’t even in full pads yet. 
    • They’re going to have win almost all remaining games and get finals of tournament to think about an at-large. When LU was in the WAC, Grand Canyon got an at-large after New Mexico St came out of nowhere to win conference tournament. Grand Canyon had a dang good resume that year. It can happen, but resume wise isn’t in their favor.
