Ever since Tarver has left and a change in administration there has been a decline in numbers and sucesss in boys athletics. The baseball team has had some sucess but will play with only 2 seniors this year..This is a disgrace for a 3A progroam that had 3 teams just 6 years ago,and now barely fielding 2. Football as well has had a huge drop in numbers, that cannot field 3 teams in high school. When PAISD merged the schools there were an influx of students at that time,now they choose to go to Sabine Pass instead Y? HF had students lining up to go there 5-6 years ago, what has happened.[i][b] I am just saying that something crashed and at least 3 distrists are benefiting from it.[/b][/i] The numbers don't lie. Maybe someone from HFcan shed some light on this. Look at the seniors for the last 2 years alone from EC,HJ,Kelly,just in that started HS at HF but left for whatever reason. [/quote] Are you a politician?  You do a great job of avoiding the questions I have asked (based on statement that you are making). First you said "the crash", indicating you had knowledge of some event or events that occurred or were occurring, but now you are "saying that something crashed" with out presenting any facts or evidence.  Case in point, I believe if it were possible to go check enrollment at HF I believe you would  probably find students that have moved in to HF that started  high school somewhere else.  There are lots of reasons that can happen (parents employment, desire to move to another area etc).  I don't believe that there are students just moving out of the district (but I could be wrong).  I also know that many families were displaced from the flooding of IKE.  Could this have been a reason for a move? I don't know.  Now again, a point you avoided (and I may be wrong on this) I believe HF is an "exemplary" district.  So my question is if students moved because as you say "something crashed", I would have to assume that it was not academics.  If this is the case, then the moves must have been for athletic reasons.......................and you have stated "HJ is not the only school benefiting from the crash at HF, We have welcomed several good multi sport players to EC over the last 4 or 5 years and they have had great sucess here".  Then in another post you say "I would never say that students were transfering for sports, that would be unbelievable wouldn't it"  Again, I believe that it is a violation of UIL rules to change schools for athletic purposes. So, which is it?  Did the students you are referring to leave for athletic reasons? academic reasons? IKE? I have to assume the first reason because all or your responses  refer back to one sport or another. [/quote] Yo bra your rhetoric and fisherkings are eerily similar seeems like they are one in the same?

Or will they keep things the same?  ???

[quote name="fisherking" post="762972" timestamp="1266634272"] It is really amazing how this topic started as a rumor and entirely speculative, and still remains that way. There has been no confirmation one way or another of the firing but yet according to most on here the firing has happened and his replacement has already been named and hired. And kingfisher, I believe I answered it clearly, when I explained what I saw this year. The talent pool in football this year was no doubt lacking by huge amounts, whether by injury, quitting, or youth. They had no chance to win the two games I saw in person no matter who was coaching the team. If Booger is right, I guess we will know soon enough the answer to the speculation but we will probably never know the whole story. Which time is the superintendent and school board at fault in the demise of the football program? The time they hired the current coach or the time this time when they fired him? At what point do you look at the mentality of the people running the district rather than one person?? According to Bluedove, HF has talent coming and therefore whoever's the HC will have a better chance of winning in all boys sports than the current HC. But in my observations, of all sports, building a successful program takes more than 2 or 3 years, especially one as low as HF was/is. For the first couple of years, after a change in HC, a football program is playing on the level of development and coaching of the previous HC. If I were the board, I would be more concerned with 0-10 in football if there were enormous participation numbers in football than 0-10 with a small number of kids playing. [u][b]Why are the kid quitting?[/b][/u] To play other sports? Football too demanding? No desire to play? Specialization? No coach would have ever made me quit something I truly loved. [/quote] I imagine respect has a lot to do with it. I imagine you respected your coach fish? Maybe not liked him, but respect him?  If a kid doesn't respect their coach, it's hard to motivate them. Not that thats the prob, broseph, but just another thing to look at.

[/quote] Well since you asked my opinion, I only thing I can go by is the two games I saw in person this year and both games I saw them they looked very very overmatched in most categories (especially size, team speed) compared to their opponents on the field. The one thing that stood out most in the game was the 10 to 12 players I saw on the sidelines not suited out. They had like only 24 or 25 players in uniform. And the only other time I saw them two years ago when they beat Silsbee, by like 21 + points. that was impressive and a shocker. And I believe it is the same coach. So you be the judge? [/quote] You dodged the question then gave me a question bra.  What you said seemed to be a no.

fisherking, bro, where you at? your opinion about the talent at hf?
