“Cmon, y’all!!! We gotta rally the racists!” What other reason do we have for going after a guy who was elected president 18 years ago?

Colmesneil has a meeting tomorrow to recommend someone for this position. Should have some clarity come tomorrow night.

Hummmm!!

The RANGERS are bad with runners in scoring position. Left bases loaded twice in Saturday's loss.

Now we know. Well -- I think we already knew!

The value of that endorsement will be determined over the next 2 years IMO

He can’t sit still when news cycle isn’t focused on him… I think he’ll do his dead-level best to make sure that the he’s the focal point of the whole process. I expect him to do things that are unheard of in US politics as we move closer to the election.

I only know one of the candidates and yes he’s at a successful 6A. Unsure who the 2nd one is or where he’s coming from.

I wonder how much they charge to watch this live? I'd pay!

I don't see him staying out of it, either. I hope he does, though. A Trump endorsement isn't worth near what it was a year or two ago, and may very well be worth even less in another few years.

I don't think splitting it was ever really a serious consideration, but looking forward to seeing who we bring in and what the future holds. I know about as much as the rest of you about the process.

This is the 6A candidate I’m assuming?

You would need to ask him if he gets the job. All I can tell you right now is that he is a high caliber candidate with a plan and will be bringing quality assistants with him. Tarkington will be lucky to get him if he is chosen.

I’ve heard one has ties to the area, could be a factor idk for sure. The area is attractive especially for families. Also incoming classes are larger than this current class. Could be good for development, that is if admin gives them the chance to build.

There are probably plenty of good football coaches that are interested in the job, but a proven winning football coach isn't likely to be interested in a job like Tarkington. Because coaches that make a name for themselves go on to better jobs that are normally competitive. Or at least high paying. Schools like Tarkington that are neither historically competitive nor high paying will not attract known successful coaches. Sorry.. that's just how it works.

I saw something today that read: ”Trump is a living example of what happens when a man is given power that far exceeds his character.” It’s what I’ve been saying all along… I know that all of you so-called Christians believed that character didn’t matter, but it did. Past performance is the best indicator of future outcomes, and Trump has been a huge pile of crap for as long as anybody can remember. It’s not a surprise that he’s destroying the country for a second time.

It what can only be described as another humiliating defeat for Trump, it’s time for the tariff refunds to go out. [Hidden Content] Long story made short, Trump illegally put tariffs onto goods coming into America. The tariffs were collected from importers, who then passed the cost onto the American consumer. The tariffs were found to be illegal, and now the money collected must be refunded to the importers, with interest. So thanks to Trump’s screwup, we all just paid extra for nothing… and his tax cuts were going to be offset by the tariffs, so now the tax cuts will just accelerate the growth of our debt. It’s all so predictably dumb.

Gotta ask, but mean no disrespect, why would a high caliber candidate be interested in the Tarkington job? Seems more likely to be a spot for someone needing a chance.

Yep rent free

Youth baseball/softball is alive & well in Orange. I live right by the Memorial Fields and the overflow parking when games are going on in the spring make it a pain in the butt going to/from my house. Its a good problem to have imo.

BH gets Angleton in first round. MP's has this. 4/22 @Angleton 6:30pm 4/24 vsAngleton 6:30pm 4/25 vsAngleton 2:00pm

And light years beyond what would be seen in WV district.

Splitting the role would immediately reduce the pool of applicants. There is a reason Head football coaches are typically combined with the AD role or Campus Coordinator role (Multi Middle and High School districts). It is the largest program and has the most moving parts. Splitting this would result in a noticeable pay cut and also probably put them back in the classroom. With as many things a HC has to account for and accomplish this would not be an attractive proposition. Now I am sure someone would still take the job. Also given the lack of production at Tarkington I get the idea but doing so would be the end of any hope of a competitive football program. Maybe some of Tarkington has given up hope already.

One of the two candidates is a high caliber candidate and will come in with eyes wide open and a good plan. Don’t know who the other one is. However, getting good coaches has not been the issue. The issue is admin running good coaches off.

It would be bold, but it would be the right decision for Tarkington. You have a good coach that's done a lot for their program and would support the other programs as well. A new football coach/AD will most likely last two years max and back to ground zero. The new guy will be their 6th head football coach in 10 years.
