Who got Big Sandy job?

Foster's assistant.

3 counties voted in this particular election. Jasper, Orange and Jefferson.

Covey won Jasper and Orange counties pretty handily.

Phelan won Jefferson county by 2800 votes.

Should Jasper and Orange county secede? lol

Travis Williams.... that's an interesting name. Where has he been lately, I knew he was at kirbyville not that long ago.

Head coach at Hearne. Turned that program around.

Made a couple good playoff runs the last few seasons.

Phelan won so this thread is irrelevant.

This is correct.

I heard the assistant was going to get this job and assume it was referring to the old Vidor coach, Nate Smith.  I always thought he did more with less at Vidor and can't help but think he shares some responsibility in Vidor's recent success. 

With Daspit getting BC job, Smith will be getting LC-M HC position.

Job is only posted on school website in May 2nd, shows up on no coaching job boards until May 21st last Tuesday, by the 23rd ( Thursday) rampant rumors are already out that the LCM guy got it . So a new AD comes in, previous coach is reassigned for an incident that they can’t fire him or non renew him for and they basically hide the job posting with the bare minimum requirements and post it to try to make it legit on the 21st when they already have a coach, but yeah he didn’t get railroaded. 

LC-M guy (Daspit) was not contacted until last Thursday. Daspit was going to be named head coach at LC-M before BC contacted him. Obviously BC wanted a shot at him before he took the LC-M job.

I cannot speak on the hiring process other than what I posted. I was only speaking on what happened to Randall and what I was told. I simply don't see a "railroad" here but I could be wrong. I personally know Smalley very well and he just doesn't seem the type to do such things. Now, the admins above him could be the ones pulling the strings. I don't know.

If what he did was that bad, why  weren’t the other employees punished? Or why wasn’t he fired instead of being reassigned? 

The reassignment was based not just on this incident but an accumulation of write ups from other incidents.

It's my understanding the others received write ups but I could have been told wrong.

Lol as I expected. I guess not sitting outside of their door all night was him “ not doing his job”

From what I was told, this was not the first incident. Robertson had been written up a few times before and it came down to this incident tipping the scale.

What those write ups were about I have no clue.

I was told this was the Supt. decision just as much as the AD.

What were they? If you’re going to put out there he wasn’t doing his job, what wasn’t he doing?

I will not post the particulars. Just saying he wasn't "railroaded" and reassigned based on his basketball achievements.

I am talking about railroading the previous coach at BC

I don't think anyone was "railroaded".

His basketball achievements were not what got him reassigned. The coach did have other responsibilities that he failed to take care of from what I know.

Like in many cases, he wasn't there just to coach basketball.

I don't think he was referring to the Bridge City AD.  

If he is referring to LC-M, Jeffcoat was not fired or reassigned. He resigned.

1 hour ago, Eagles12 said:

Yeah I am sure basketball coaches are just lining up to work for this AD after he fired the last guy for winning too much. 

That simply isn't the case here.

Also wasn't entirely his call. Taking orders so to speak.

Very shocked on this one.  Rumors were he was next LCM HC.

This could be saying something about the prospects of BC and LC-M basketball.

The AD could be playing a factor as well.

BridgeCity has hired LCM freshman basketball coach Andrew Daspit 

He was first assistant on varsity.

Ortiz, who had not pitched all year, comes in the top of 7th and gives up 3 run homer.

McNeese leads 14-4 headed to bottom of 7th

Any surprising names?? 

A couple. Not privy to say just yet.

I will say that Keithan Hancock, Travis Williams and Omar Sneed interviewed.

I know who the other 4 are but was asked to not reveal just yet.

Any updates on this one? Congrats to Coach Vela on a great career.

Ryan Croy, assistant coach at Summer Creek will be the next head coach at Splendora.

8 have interviewed.

I look for a hire within the next two weeks.

I mean, 3 high schools in 4 years. 

One would think he is a military brat.

Where’s he going?  Article is behind a paywall for me 

Hasn't said yet.

Waiting on the highest bidder.

I predict this young man will attend more than 2 universities.

Bridge City is officially open.
