No timeline yet. We are in process of building our new hs that should be done December 2026. I have done all the leg work to price the start up costs out. If I could start it immediately I would but the start up costs are the biggest hurdle when starting from scratch. It is my goal and mission as AD here to have it built the right way. It would start 7th first and then build up and add slowly.

Reagan and Porter.

When you say "losing record", are you utilizing "math" or something else? He has more wins than losses, is 10-3 considered "good"? 8-3? 7-5? 7-4? for schools like Hardin, Liberty? Probably have a parade in the streets if Tarkington were able to win 4 games right now.

Not sure where the insults were but if you are trying to make the case that what Chad Taylor did at Liberty and Hardin is "average", I suspect most would agree that is "being silly".

Nah, he knows what he's doing!

I think you're assuming that coaches with winning records just inundate all head coaching opportunities with unlimited interest. Big name coaches (or ones with winning records) don't normally apply for this type of job. Are they supposed to just scrap every resume until they get to a winning one? I'd think that most schools try to hire the best candidate of the ones that apply for the job.

We need some more of those "I did that" stickers that TDS sufferers spent their money on.

I think the best thing for the Prairie would be to follow the Westwood model and give Cody Wynn the AD and separate it from the head football coach.

THIS is who CB is..... My future responses to his trolling will be only that of my moderation duties.

The Boomers defend this by saying back in their day they got heat stroke, rhabdo and permanent injuries like real men.

I spoke with Harold earlier today. He believes that KLVI will continue to do Nederland football and Lamar athletic broadcasts and he will contract out for them. He is just no longer a full time employee with IHeart/KLVI. He isn't 100% certain of this but believes it will happen.

Somebody needs to get a life! Geez

If you weren’t committed enough to send ground troops, you weren’t committed enough to the purpose to start the conflict. Issue is, POTUS knew he wouldn't get public, or Congressional support for ground troops. So, he tried an end-around. Without public support, success will be hard to achieve. Success in this endeavor required eliminating the IRGC, and affecting regime/cultural change. I keep repeating myself there's a reason why conflicts are supposed to be difficult to start.

He’d be given 15 years if he could string together a couple 3-5 win seasons here lol

Trump’s threats are becoming hollow.

in the last 50 years Tarkington has had 19 coaches and 3 winning seasons. it's not the coaches, whether hired once or three times.

Eagles 12 you're not out the woods by leaving the Bmt. schools behind. You will have to deal with a different branch of competition with Dickinson & The Clear Creek ISD schools.

You may be right but I posted it mainly because of the way Trump has treated MTG. I believe Trump has lost his way too. When Trump was being hammered in court over rape allegations MTG was one of the few people that stood by him. She voted with his agenda probably 95 percent of the time.

I don’t entertain his trolling anymore. I would get ready for the repeating of Democratic talking points from all the cheerleaders. on X it appears the DOJ is about to start moving on Russia-gate stuff.

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.

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.

He helped broker the Abraham accords deal and Trump trust him. He is an outside appointed negotiator. Dude is smart.

Benefits of playing "higher level competition" and "everything a kid would want or need". There will be no "Warrens", "Trinity's" or "Kountze's" where he is headed. Anyone comparing WV to BH in terms of what is offered, is engaged in a fool's errand. There is not a single thing better at WV than BH from facilities, academics, athletics, or anything else.

😂🤣

Sure… but for someone to say that he won’t benefit more from playing QB at the 6A level vs 3A just isn’t factual.

Coach Locks will not be joining Coach Foreman at Jasper. He has been promoted to Head football coach at Shoemaker and campus athletic coordinator.

I'm just looking for the cheering from all our "women are victim" supporters on this forum. It seems as much as they wanted everything out on the Epstein files, they would be celebrating this date raping sexual abuser of women is finally getting caught. I guess since it does not hurt Trump, it is no big deal

This is @TheMissingBand everytime Trump says or does anything. Lol

@TheMissingBand Daddy’s Memorial.😂

His curve was working really well tonight.

With the first pick in the 2026 UIL Texas High School Football Draft, the Barbers Hill Eagles select QB Luke Babin...😕 (Maybe)

Harold Mann has been let go by IHeart Radio, KLVI 560. He was the voice of Nederland football broadcasts on KLVI. Not sure what this will mean for Nederland radio broadcasts. Will KLVI continue to broadcast their games with someone else or are they getting out of the business all together? This also greatly effects Lamar athletic broadcasts. Mann was the play by for all their broadcasts. Be curious to see where KLVI goes from here.

I just spoke with Harold. He doesn't think KLVI will drop sports broadcasts (Lamar, Nederland). He anticipates contracting out with KLVI to continue doing radio broadcasts of Nederland football and Lamar Athletics. Might be on a reduced broadcast schedule but should continue. We will see come September.

That will be the latest you know, a lot of times stuff is announced before board approval.

Got it. Liberty, Hardin, Tarkington and "barely has a winning record". In Hardin's case, the absolute best ever for over a half century. Those three schools have always been football powers. He should have done much better. No excuse to ever have a losing season at those schools. Any coach who doesn't put 10 win seasons up yearly at those schools is "average". You are making yourself look silly with each new comment.

You listed some former Tarkington head coaches that were hired with losing records. How do you know they were the most successful coaches from the applicants at the time? How do you not see how what I posted has a lot to do with what you posted?

I think you missed the point. AI gets it's information from the internet.....If it searches for "is Santa Clause real" and 90% of the articles it finds says yes, it says yes. AI is only as good as the information it receives.

Like I said in a previous post,Trump is a savvy business man, ethical or not.

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.

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.

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.

Bolder move than they were ever going to be willing to make. Would have been a ton of questions about, what does this mean for football? Or what about football? Current admin was never going to be willing to stand up to that.

Kind of thought Foreman to Jasper would have had more legs.

My source says he heard secondhand from one of the candidates that they are down to 2. No internal candidates made the top 6. Wouldn’t give a name but an assistant From a successful 6a is all I could get.

I’d prefer that this excursion cost us less than a few hundred billion dollars we’re going to borrow from our kids, and that we still had an ample supply of defensive munitions. We’re no safer than we were three months ago, only much further in debt. All because Trump wants a peace prize.

Karma is a ..... 10 years going after Trump, and their spokesperson for anything anti-Trump, a member of house intelligence has been date raping staffers,,,,,,, We have recent text and bank records, not just allegations - he's in trouble BIGLEY

87 pages and still no Trump. 🤪

Some coaches fail exercise physiology even after they have graduated.
