There is going to be so much howling that night, you are going to think its a full moon out...

Maybe not, but the Jaguars won the last meeting between the 2 schools ever And with a good mix of Panthers, that played you all good for a half I think this year, it won't be close...

All good questions that I don't have the answers to right now but I will try to get...

It'll be eating Bulldogs on September 7th...

I had a meeting Monday with some higher ups one of which was Coach Louis. His estimated numbers for football for this coming year was approximately 90 from Central, approximately 80 from Ozen and approximately 100 from the middle schools. Not too bad of numbers to start United with...

The best idea yet...

I know it won't happen with 259 miles between the two schools but I sure would love to see a Temple vs Beaumont United basketball game...

My my, how this list keeps growing...

So who left, Thomas?

Correct, they are trying to get some extra funds for their 1st choice (who didn't even apply, just like A. Louis) to leave his current place of employment. Waddy is probably the fall back plan...

I was told this Monday but I didn't believe it...

I know you were a finalist...

That's always on the agenda...

Summer Creek must be paying pretty good and have some great facilities along with a great place to stay for 2 head PA coaches to leave in the same school year...

So HJ fans, does Hardin Jefferson already have someone in-house they are leaning to to fill his position or will it be an outsider?

Just because I said it wouldn't bother me if one got it, doesn't mean I "hate" or "hating" as you say on the other one. Just because you have a preference on something doesn't mean you dislike the other or "hating". Just because I prefer a GMC over a Ford or Dodge truck, a Mustang over a Camaro or a Yamaha over a Mercury, doesn't mean I "hate" the other. I don't have any boys currently in the boys basketball program or in the near future, so it really doesn't matter to me one bit who they give it to. I just want them to be successful and will be at every game that I can make. I won't be in an uproar on whoever they name. I'll congratulate them on here and if/when I see them in public. I've been privileged to some meetings that apparently you haven't been. I have heard out of the decision makers mouths what they are looking for on and off the field/court in these hires for United and so far they are staying true to what they said. Oh trust me bro, I'm one of the biggest opponents of people being able to use fake names and fake pictures on here. This website would be a lot less drama free if real names and photos had to be used. They are able to throw stones and hide their hand. Stay around for a while, it won't be hard to figure out who I am, especially in football season...

You seen that too? Seems to have the credentials...

Have you seen somewhere where they "officially" named her?

I know of them both as much as I care to or need to know. I'll go on record and say that it wouldn't bother me one bit if Thomas got the job. Support? I already have United t-shirts that I've been wearing around town to support the school, staff and students. How about you? I've been involved in this entire process since August. How about you? And if I want to speak on a story on this message board, I can. What are you going to do, shut me up? One thing I agree with you on, Beaumont United Timberwolves will be a great thing

And that may very well be true and I don't know the man and this is not taking a shot at him at all. Look at the Arthur Louis hire (football), Williams (volleyball) and all the rest of the positions that have been filled so far, they are not just looking at wins and losses. They are doing background research, calling around asking about people, their social and personal life, seeing what they have posted on facebook and other social sites. Are they going to mesh with other staff or be an a**h*** to be around? Are they going to allow players to cuss out other coaches, teammates, etc. and continue to play them because they are good? They don't want to put a person that can win games but is not a good example of what the students will be looking up to, girls and boys. They have got to get this right as best as possible. I feel the same way about this position as I did the football position, make it an outside of the district hire so that you know that the coach simply wants to come here and win. Nobody will be able to say he is playing more Ozen or Central players but instead he is playing the best players to give him the chance to win. I don't see that happening in football even though it's been lopsided on the varsity and JV side at least the last 5 years. I hope I'm proven wrong...

Jump ship and not compete on the varsity level for a year? I don't see it...

I'm not on the basketball thread too much but yep, I think you are one of the 3 pictures posted...

There is a school board meeting a week from today. I expect the decision to be made by then.

Business and companies interview people all the time but in reality already know who they want out of the applicants. BISD and this situation is no different.

Everything that you mentioned, meetings, 7 on 7, summer conditioning either will take place or have already taken place. It will be no different than any other high school with the exception of no spring ball, practice starts on August 6th. Summer conditioning starts on June 11th...
