So in your eyes Brandon wasn’t one of the top 3 players on the team? He was game 1 starter and played SS the others. Terrier must have thought he was good if he got him the MVP. They had a great team and lots of great players.

@89Falcon Then also they want to combine the Jr. High and High School together as well with the low budget... I forgot to tell you that too.

Well the guy they wanted basically said he will install it but pay it overtime (I think some guys out of Livingston) but we will see sometime after next season because "That's when they're supposed to start".

They have discussed the turf field for a while. Turf conversion can typically be offset by reduction in maintenance cost. However, I don’t see how it could happen absent of a bond anytime soon. They may anticipate a correction with increased state funding in the future. That is just speculation on my part.

To be honest I wished he would have taken over the job for Barbay back then but things happen when egos get involved.

Idk if you saw it but sometime last month they got together at the school and they put this on Facebook live to talk about the estate of the school financially and they was going on and on about the athletic budget and these guys were on there talking about implementing turf on the field in the next few seasons. If they're talking about do that how in the world are we going to pay for that if the budget is compromised?

As far as I know there was 8 candidates but 2 of them I knew about personally and the 2 I just mentioned did apply and one was hired but looking at the budget we have we definitely made the right hire no matter how everyone else looked at it.

No doubt. And he would not have been able to bring them all because they have reduced positions and pay. CS does not currently have sufficient coverage for all coaching duties. Might be worse with all of the upcoming departures.

He is a very good coach indeed. Eventually he will get that dream job he wants and his style of coaching will help that school tremendously.

I think so too especially if he could of brought in his own coaching staff as well.

Too bad we can’t get back Texaco Island.

I thought about ur last sentence when I read the article this morning... 🤔 Interesting to say the least

Well sounds like Day was about as good of a realistic candidate as you were gonna get so no reason to get upset. That is unless there were other candidates that did apply that were willing to take that job that the community would've preferred. However it seems like a safe pick. A coach that was willing to come there knowing the difficulties and with HC experience. Although not the success you'd have like to have seen but he seems to have performed above the average at the schools he's coached at.

The unfortunate thing here is I am keeping an open mind, and you are only interested in playing the blame game. You have more in common with Trump than you realize. Lol.

He was a good player, but those other two led them in the playoffs too. I was responding to the post that made it seem like he was the sole reason for them winning.

As often as Morrison has applied for other jobs, I can't believe no one has hired him yet. I know he was on the applicant list for another job in the Houston area a couple of years ago. Seems like a jam up coach and has done a great job at Diboll.

You don’t see he is blaming others? Except for the “walk back”, which is no admission of anything except he lied, his mistakes are the people he chose. They made the bad decisions, not him.

No question Hillin could be the guy and be successful. He is a good coach. But I think Clark could be just as good or better. Could also not be good at all. Problem is we don’t know because he hasn’t been a head coach yet. I think he deserves a chance. Yes, because he’s been loyal, but also because he’s a knowledgeable guy and a pretty good coach

Totally agree. I was just letting people know the location if they’re not familiar with Beaumont….French Road especially.

That state team for Buna was Hillins second year getting district MVP… Your crazy if you don’t think he was one of the top 2 players on that team minimum. I get that team was very talented but let’s be real

100%. He was not an option under the current circumstances. He probably would have had it he wanted it.

I heard he applied.

Well I know you know more about it on that end then I do because of the connection you have to Coldspring for a bit but my cousin who has a classmate on the school board mentioned that he was in the running for the job but as you mentioned pay was an issue. Don't know if that was true or not but that what I was told.
