Should be fun!  ;D

Sucks yall got to go out of town for rice festival. Oh well, football is more important. haha

He was being recruited by A&M in 8th grade. I think they are interested.

[quote name="Rizon" post="1408197" timestamp="1369435507"] Bet you the baseball coach doesn't retire...he'll surface somewhere. He doesn't want to work for this AD and if a class act doesn't want to work for someone that tells me something. So if the AD loses next year he should fire himself if he fired the softball coach after two bad years. From my sources the girls basketball coach left because of the AD...didn't want to work for him. I was in this business for a long time and I will tell you the way he is doing things...is not the way you do them. Horns93...you drinking the wrong kool-aide my friend. Maybe I am wrong...time will tell. [/quote] Yes Rizon, you are wrong...my kool-aid is "crystal clear right," time will tell that we have the right AD at the right time for HF.

[/quote] Only time will tell but considering HJ beat HF last year and returns a lot while HF graduates a lot I'll go with HJ. Game could go either way though...I see the district like this: Silsbee WOS BC HJ OF Buna HF [/quote] HJ lost one of  their best player and coach. HF will have an experienced line and talented skilled positions. Should be fun.

[quote name="Rizon" post="1407845" timestamp="1369356275"] So the new AD has run off the baseball coach, girls basketball coach, and reassigned the softball coach. My sources tell me a lot of unhappy people out there. MaHaffey was a class act. Softball coach had been there since I moved to the area. Do not know much about the basketball coach. Maybe someone with deeper sources than I have can fill me in...I'm not connecting the dots on why here. HFfan5...any idea of those assistant coaches plan on staying? [/quote] Connect these dots...Mahaffey was a class act...The Baseball Coach Retired..... The Softball Coach has had a horrible record the last 2 seasons....so they are getting new leadership there...... Just because softball coach has been there a long time does not guarantee her keeping the job....if they are not improving.....Girls baskeball coach has done a good job and got a job at a bigger program...good for her.....Sounds like the AD is doing a great job..... He is doing his job......Assistants (Leaders) have to show they are able to be led....before they are giving the job to lead......dots connected.

If they can get to the State Championship game then it is possible.  :P

Kane Harris is the AD. Coach Morris is replacing Wayne Mahaffey who retired after a great career in coaching.

Anything is possible.

Heard that Jarrod Morris, who was assistant baseball coach at 5A Midland Lee, was hired. I have not seen this on the news. Said he played ball for Lubbock Christian University.    Good Luck Coach Morris!

yes, it is possible.

Hopefully the 3A division split happens and the smaller 3A school can compete with each other. HJ will do better.

That is awesome.  I went and checked your schedule and noticed that you play a lot of Houston teams. Why is that? Your district is different for basketball than football?

Basketball will never rule over football. Remember that's why they got rid of the Football program at Lamar in 1989. As soon  as Lamar dropped it the basketball program faltered and the enrollment went down. Lamar spent the next 20 years trying to get football back.  So, the answer to your question is yes. HJ does want a good football program as well as a good basketball program.

[quote name="kenneth1617" post="1367001" timestamp="1359169795"] bna beats silsbee 76-22 [/quote] Doing well on the girls side in 3A.

HF 57--OF 49

I guess title 9 does not apply to SETX sports. We are spoiled on the boys side with their district standing updates.

Wow, miss 2A yet?

Hate to see him and one of HJ's best players leave. Take care Martel's

The only thing I hate about these list is there is always someone deserving that does not show up. But Congrats to those on it.

[quote name="HFfan5" post="1316302" timestamp="1351803154"] Hamshire**** For god sakes lol. H-F has some really good pitching coming back this year with Jannise, Herring and Johnson. If they can get the bats going they could easily compete for the second or third spot [/quote] Forgot Jeffcoat. BC does not like Herring or Jeffcoat. Jannise was a problem.

Who cares where they are from. I don't watch Texas or A&M because of how many SETX boys are on the roster. I watch because they have good programs. Who ever started this thread got their feelings hurt or something. If Lamar was undefeated last season no one would not care if every player was from tim-buc-to.  The fact is SETX is well represented, but  we do not compete well yet in the Southland Conference. This is essentially a new program, so give it a rest. They have done well so far and should continue to improve. The program should be evaluated on wins and loses, not how many local boys are on the team.

I am guessing this is Nederalands quarterback?  If so, great job on your season and the impressive win over the Pearland team.

[quote name="cougar14" post="1352958" timestamp="1355162129"] [quote author=jenks link=topic=107332.msg1352937#msg1352937 date=1355160144] [quote author=cougar14 link=topic=107332.msg1352934#msg1352934 date=1355159657] I know this is going to be a fire-starter but I think it needs to be said. This is what a good African-American coach can do for a program, especially in the south. Kevin Sumlin has now flipped Thomas Johnson, Seals-Jones, and just picked up Justin Manning who I think is the best d-tackle in the state. Before Sumlin got there TAMU was very unlikely to get the top players in the state, especially if they were African-American. Very hard for those kids to blend in College Station and feel like it's a second home unlike Austin or the DFW area. He has also gotten Kameron Miles to decommit from Tennessee. Eldridge Massington has not yet committed to TAMU but is looking like a likely target for Sumlin, Massington is a USC decommit. If A&M can continue to keep winning they're going to blow Texas out of the water in recruiting which has been the Horns lifeblood for a decade, it seems like unless you were an All-American in high school UT wouldn't offer you in the past. A&M is fitting right along in the SEC though, I believe UT didn't offer Manning yet because he was a non-qualifier last time I checked. [/quote] I think its more about Johnny Manziel and the SEC, but Sumlin was the right choice for A&M at this moment in History. The other coach recruited Johnny Football, Sumlin was smart to start him. [/quote]I agree, but Sumlin made Manziel. If he was this good he would have started over Tannehill last year. If Sherman was still there they would be 6-6 right now just like they were last year in the Big 12. There's a reason Manziel was playing receiver on the scout team last year, he barely won the job a few days before the season started. He was also the # 40 qb in his class and A&M was his best offer. When you start giving Sumlin guys near the top of their class like Mack Brown has been getting at Texas I think he's going to turn into Steve Spurrier. [/quote] If Texas is smart they need to fire Brown and get A&M offensive coordiantor Kliff Kingsbury before Texas Tech hires him.

How is that Big 12 and Longhorn Network working for you TU? Wish you had qualified for the Cotton Bowl this year  :-X
