Hamshire-Fannett HC open


Recommended Posts

So would this be considered a good career move ? Maybe it cuts down on the hours if Coach Pace doesn't have to coach Football or Track but Lumbertons underclass programs weren't real strong. I don't know what's going on at HF. I can remember not to many years ago they were respectable.

It is even worse then 6 in eleven years. 18-19 Pace, 17-18 Jacks, 16-17 Byerly, 15-16 Holder, 14-15 Bryant, 13-14 Cantor, 12-13 Collins, 11-12 Decello (half way through year was removed) Neal took over, 10-11 Richards. Before all of that I am not 100% sure but that is 10 coaches in 9 years. 

The kids in HF are good kids and yes there is some talent coming up for sure. The kids do not deserve this and they are the ones that get hurt by this. I wish Pace the best of luck as I have wished everyone that has left the same.

I sure hope our school board and AD finds a great coach to come in and stay for 4 to 5 years at least.

Not a very desirable position in that tough district.

Good kids - decent talent - just need a coach that will stay a few years and be consistent with the program.   I think they can compete in that district with they right system and consistency.  The board and AD need to figure out why coaches leave or why good coaches decide to take other jobs over this one.  I know it was kinda strange a couple years ago when they had some solid applicants and then decided to move Jacks over instead of interviewing.

Does it have anything to do with football being a much bigger priority?

There is a huge Teacher/Coach shortage and this area pays very poorly. HF being one of the worst districts. Things are only gonna get worse. Next election dont vote for Dan Patrick and Abbott if you care about your kids education.

I don't know that pay has ever been any more of an issue at H-F as with other schools.

My understanding is the administration and the school board at H-F, by reputation, is quite heavy with their micromanaging.  Also, that who gets playing time, regardless of the sport, sometimes depends on who knows who rather than who can do what.

    • Here is the facebook post for y'all   I’m not going to put names or schools on this, but feel free to screen shot it to whoever you like. Yes yes, I’m a baseball guy. But I love football more than baseball. My son played all three sports in high school. So I’m not a baseball only guy. But if your high school football coach has your Varsity baseball son doing football drills in pads right now, that is wrong. At one certain school, the baseball team lost their starting third baseman (Gladiator kid) because he dislocated his elbow in a football drill. Two weeks before high school baseball playoffs, and now his season is done. Basically this coaches decision to make Varsity baseball players do football workouts on April 22nd, 5 months before Friday night lights, just sabotaged this kids season, and the teams season. And once again, I’m a huge football supporter, but this is wrong!! This is why kids stop playing football. Coaches preach they want kids playing all the sports, well how about respect baseball season, from Feb to May !  If the shoe was on the other foot, and a kid got injured playing baseball in October and he was a varsity football starter, what would that coach do? Be pissed off! And I would 100% agree with him! There is a reason I don’t have a fall baseball program with football guys. Because I respect football season. All I’m asking is football coaches to respect baseball season. Respect the High School baseball coaches that have worked their ass off to try to get their team in a playoff situation. Support them, don’t Sabotage them by taking their players out because of a “all important April 22nd” football workout. And I don’t want to hear this was bad luck, or any crap like that!!!A lot of these kids are Division One Baseball players, and just good high school football players. If you want to continue to have these kids play football, start doing the right thing. If not, I’m going to try to get those kids quit football and just focus on baseball. And let me say it again, I want all my Gladiator kids playing football!! I go support them watching their football games, and I love it!! But not at the cost of an injury in April playing football, not baseball . Bad miss……Do a better job! Be a better football coach, and remember, it’s not about you, but it’s about the kids who respect you and will do anything you ask them to do. Don’t punish them for being a good baseball or basketball player!!
    • Only if you ignore the Constitution. I get the sentiment but I sometimes ponder when others may say, “We always support the Constitution”, “The Constitution has to be followed as the law of the land”, etc.  When in reality they mean, “I LOVE THE CONSTITUTION……. except the parts I don’t like”. There are certainly parts of the Constitution that I would change if I had the option.
