  1. For clarification: schools run a background check from the DPS database. If that comes back "clear", the school check references. Former employers are only technically allowed to provide 1. dates of employment 2. eligible for rehire yes/no 3. they may also provide safety info for DOT sensitive positions. Anything beyond the above listed information can expose the former employer to legal trouble. If they reveal unsubstantiated or unverified rumor type information that prevents a former employee from being hired, they can be subject to lawsuits.

  2. The writing was on the wall when the LLCA group in Woodville ran off the coach who took them to the state title game because he 'didn't use his athletes" like they wanted.

  5. Just in Lumberton this morning when I was driving thru on 96, these were the prices I saw: 3.03 (but you had to buy a car wash) 3.15 3.17 3,23 3.49 3.59 3.69 I paid 3.17 at HEB and just half a mile down there was a station that had 3.69. How can it be half a dollar cheaper (or more) in that close proximity? Makes zero sense.

  6. Very sad time for the LCM community. In a perfect world they would name every sports venue in the district after him.

  8. If we were to split it in half. I'm pretty sure both halves would still be bigger than both of you.

    Silsbee 0-3 at TABC

    Will be another "down" year for Silsbee this coming season. Meaning they will contend for a district title but likely will finish 2nd or 3rd and then out in 2nd round, maybe 3rd. Just too young at this point in time. But after this season, the Tigers will be back on top again and be back to making deep runs in the playoffs.

  11. Those other levels can go get their talent while most high schools have to play with the talent (or lack thereof) that lives within the district. I think a coach should have the option to play the style that benefits his/her team the most for success. If it's a deliberate style (not holding the ball in a huddle like what Lumberton tried to do with no real intent on running an offense) then so be it. If it takes a minute to a minute and a half to run your offense aka Argyle, Kingwood, Central Heights, etc., then what's the harm? I want diversity in the game. I like seeing different styles being played. Shot clock basically makes everyone play the same. Most coaches and teams that want a shot clock already put the ball up within 45 seconds of the possession. Doesn't help them offensively. They just don't want to have to defend that long. The shot clock is just not needed at the high school level.

    The Art of the Squeal

    Are these the same advisors who listened to the Gulf States, and other world leaders (who haven't been directly threatened with 'Death to America' chants for the last 47 years) that warned of a global recession because their countries/States were in a crunch and don't know the full capabilities of America's military? Or, were they the political advisors that warned him about losing an election--and going through another ridiculous and wasteful impeachment process--because of high gas prices, and an unpopular war that he didn't get full buy-in from the public before beginning? I'm not a war hawk in general. But, I am as it concerns the Iranian regime. If it was important enough to go in, it's important enough to finish. Just because you eliminate some senior leadership of a group that has never honored an agreement in their history doesn't mean their acolytes will honor an agreement any differently. That's a fool's errand. Sorry. I've always been hopeful this current blockade method along with military action would work. But, I just don't see it. Many others with direct experience share my view. I daresay, it's about 50/50, with more of the former military and intel personnel with experience agreeing with me. The politicos probably do not agree as they're concerned about different things. Without regime change, you'll never confirm there's no nuclear threat as you'll never receive total access, and THAT was the primary driver.

    UIL on shot clock usage

    Every other level of basketball has one, what would it hurt. No one wants to evolve with the times . Not all change is bad !!!!

  14. It's a bit unfair to scrutinize Toby about this hire and not do the same to each of the other HC/AD who have hired him over the past several years while these same issues were present. Bass hired him a year ago at HJ, and several other districts in the years before. Clearly, it's a systemic problem that has permeated all of these districts in the area so trying to paint Foreman as the primary bad guy just because of the most recent issue seems a bit like recency bias. If social media is to be believed, the issue with Peveto and the young girl was a pretty well-known secret around HJ and Peveto's wife was the athletic secretary and Bass was in charge.

    Iran War Update

    Well I am positive that Trump did not end the Ukraine War within 24 hours of being sworn in. Here we are a year and half later and it’s still going on. Nothing negative about living in reality.

    True. Good thing the U.S. has the best military ever seen and their help was never needed. It’s nice to know who you can count on. We should abandon those bases.

  26. Sadly, a lot of school districts choose to let the pervert resign so they don't have to report it and take the time to go to court. If you remember several years ago a Memorial coach was jailed for this and when it came out that there were allegations at other schools, the girl sued those schools. I don't remember the outcome of the lawsuits. My favorite professor at Lamar, Coach John Payton, always told us to never be alone with any of your students. I have lived by his advice now for 33 years.
