You’re looking the wrong way, pal. This was a change election. The people want to see legislative action. One of the Chief of Staff’s primary duties is to coordinate the White House’s legislative agenda to Congress. Stephen Miller will prove incapable of operating in that capacity, driving the Republican Party deeper into the hole. Press Secretary would have been a much ch safer move.

“This resignation is brought to you by Raceway Motors where we’re for the people!”…Seriously..good luck to the Pack on finding a great HC!

They need to shore up their special teams. It’s cost them lots of points especially in close games.

While I don’t necessarily disagree with you, there’s a trend at his last two stops now. BH and Lufkin ended similarly.

Everybody wants to wave a magic wand and win instantly. They don’t understand the definition of building a program.

None of us (I think) know all of the details on the situation with the OC but there are coaches out there that have principles and are loyal to their people. Abseck clearly did not agree with the outcome for his OC and felt he was willing to go to the mat about the situation. Knowing what I know about Abseck, if the OC was in fact in the complete wrong, he would have administered accountability up to and including parting ways. I dont know him to a man of poor integrity.

True and as you say "They are idiots".

I know all too well about that type of situation.

Sad thing is no matter who we bring in the same people complain about that coach too.

Big loss for Lufkin in my opinion, but there was no parting with his OC who was the issue with the district. Abseck complicity to not control his OC interactions, player discipline and laments with administrative people was the main downfall. Abseck did a lot of good getting the Lufkin program back on track, especially at the sub-varsity levels. He implemented other facilities improvements and was instrumental in helping to pass the bond for the Lufkin new stadium. Hard to figure the connection he has with his OC, because the two come across as polar opposites. I liked Abseck but keeping the OC around did not help this outcome. This OC scenario will replicate itself wherever he lands, the old saying "it's hard to change a leopards spots". No need to say more. I do wish Carl Abseck all the best success in the future.

I gotcha. And yes, our 3A coverage is pretty loaded.

No, lol we are right where we need to be. No issue at all with us being unranked. I was just saying all the ranked teams are 3A, We should opt up to 4A with less ranked teams

Big facts

I think his son still coaches at A&M Kingsville. He might try the college ranks where he doesn’t have to mess with some of this other stuff. Never know.

Carl Abseck has resigned as Lufkin High School’s athletic director and head football coach, Lufkin ISD confirmed Tuesday morning. In two seasons leading the Panthers, the team went 13-9 with one playoff appearance. Prior to his hiring by the Lufkin ISD board of trustees in a January 2025 special meeting, Abseck coached for four seasons at Barbers Hill High School in Mont Belvieu, leading the Eagles to the area round of the playoffs each year. Abseck was the head coach at Cedar Park for six years before that, where he led the Timberwolves to a state championship, a state runner-up, and five district titles. “Lufkin ISD wishes Coach Abseck success in his future endeavors,” the district said in a statement. Abseck’s departure means Lufkin is looking for a new head coach for the second time in three years after having two men lead the program over the prior three decades. John Outlaw, hired in 1995, died in December 2011, and his successor Todd Quick retired following the 2024 season. “The district will focus its immediate planning on maintaining continuity across its athletic programs, addressing immediate leadership needs, and establishing a timeline for the search for Coach Abseck’s successor,” LISD said in the statement. After Abe Martin Stadium’s final game — a 24-14 Lufkin win over Beaumont West Brook — the team fell 42-7 in its 2026 season finale at La Porte. The Pack’s new coach will lead the team as it plays all 10 games in 2027 outside Lufkin. Four home games are to be played at Homer Bryce Stadium in Nacogdoches before a new stadium opens on the Lufkin High School campus in 2028.

No thank you

Yeah because who would want to deal with all that. I get it the OC rubbed a lot of people the wrong way. I will say that I never had a bad interaction with him and never had a problem with how he coached my kid.

Silsbee is currently playing with 4 varsity players (1 starter). The rest are freshmen and JV players playing up. Silsbee is waiting on about 8-9 football players to fill out varsity roster (3-4 starters). The bulk of their scoring will come from this group. Silsbee will have at least 2 freshmen on varsity this season with one pushing for starting time.
