How could you possibly know that for sure? What in Surratt's past head coaching history would make you think he couldn't?!

No, there's always variables that come into play. Just like when 89falcon explained that different variable could have happened as to why Danaher never won a State Title. PS -- just like I explained before about why Joe Gibbs wasn't as successful the second time around with the Redskins -- variables! And this actually came from him.

Surratt winning a state title at Warren over the next 7 years? No offense to Warren… but no it’s not happening

Chuck Norris doesn’t read books. He stares them down until he gets the information he wants. Atlas retired when Chuck Norris was born.

It’s also important to note that your poll is trash. The final results earlier this month were Cornyn 41.9, Paxton 40.7, and Hunt at 13.5, then the others. According to your poll, people who voted for Cornyn are now deciding to vote Paxton in the runoff. With Cornyn “dropping” from 41.9% to 37%… a ten percent decrease in the number of people who’ve already voted Cornyn in the primary. Like I said… If I were you, I’d edit my post to remove an obvious trash poll and either a) pretend it was a joke or b) apologize to the board for getting tricked by a fake poll.

I think you’ll see something like Ashby/Ward in Texas SD 3, where “we the people” (who are actually something like 8% of the total population) will find themselves befuddled that their candidate just isn’t likable and doesn’t win.

John Wayne Cornyn the Fraud! Can’t wait for him to get his Whooping!

BC has generally been a bad football team for the better part of 3 decades, but have had groups of kids who've given them a couple of years of good teams here and there. Without a doubt they've had a special group of kids the last couple of years and it's shown. There was a local coach in another sport who had a special player and took a traditionally bad program to unprecedented success for a couple of years, and he was anointed as one of the area's elites (often by himself, but by others as well) after two good seasons. In the five years since that player graduated the program has slid back first into mediocrity and then into the cellar. That coach isn't mentioned with the elites anymore. What's yet to be seen is whether Smalley is going to maintain success once these players all graduate, or if BC will fall from the peak back into another valley when this group of kids is all gone. I think he's a good coach. If he can sustain success at BC (or leaves for another school and finds more success), i'll have no issue calling him an elite coach. If they're 5-5 or 3-7 in two years then i'll assume the recent success had a lot more to do with the players than the coaching. In reality I'm sure it had a lot to do with both. Regardless, he's not winning a state title with BC, and that doesn't exclude him from becoming elite there if he can sustain success.

What would be the reason for the decline from 25 years ago if he is an "elite" coach? Did he lose his "elite" coaching abilities?

Yes, 2 State Titles puts you in the elite club no matter what happens down the road. Just think about all the coaches that can't even play in one much less win one. BTW, this is for football only. So, as of now there won't be a "she" involved.

BC HC Josh Smally fits this. But I dont consider him in the top 1% yet. @Reagan's 3% was generous. Doesn't mean he's not a great coach. Just not Elite. Still some years left to make the jump. If they continue the recent success it will snowball into more and more. Look for them to compete with WOS very well next season

Question. In your opinion, can an "elite" coach no longer be an "elite" coach? Or is he/she always an "elite" coach? Example. A coach wins two state championships in his first 5 years of coaching after taking over for a coach who had won 6 titles in 15 seasons. Previous coach built a top notch program. Then the next 25 years the coach doesn't win a state championship. In fact, he has a few losing seasons. Is he still "elite" because of those two state titles from 25 years ago?

Wait a second… is the rumored cen Tex Coach being hired a 409 guy??

My point being that they couldn't agree on an inside (Bronson) hire. Doesn't necessarily mean they couldn't agree on someone outside.

👀👀👀

First sentence is true.

I was told NEW guy had already informed his current staff..... However, I have been mislead before.

Elite is my definition. You have to have at least 2 State Titles in high school football to qualify. Anyone can have their own definition if they want.

Probably depends on your perspective and personal opinion. Dude is a heck of a ball coach.

Yes Sir

My new favorite!!!

15-1 in my big money brackets.

Word I received was the board was split on an inside hire and outside hire.

I wish we had an infinite number of likes. I’m already out. Those are too good, especially the rattlesnake.

A couple more: Chuck Norris' tears can cure cancer. Too bad he never cries. Chuck Norris counted to infinity...twice. The dinosaurs looked at Chuck Norris the wrong way once. You know what happened to them. Chuck Norris was bitten by a rattlesnake. After two agonizing days of pain, the rattlesnake finally died.
