Wow, that is the thanks one gets for getting a team to the regional finals.

Really feel for Coach Bennett who is well respected in the coaching community
 
Good luck to the next guy they hire.  Always remember that your boss thinks he can do it better than you, will tell you he can do it better than you, and will reassign you to middle school girls pole vault to prove it.  So the next time you put on that hit and run, or sac you might wanna get pre approval. 

Well said.  The now former baseball coach has been successful there, and I believe he took Orangefiled to the state tournament a few years back. He's been working with the kids all year and probably looking forward to a very successful season as I think they Kirbyville is supposed to be pretty good this year. The damn season already started.  Yet in comes in a new AD and HFC, who happened to be his assistant last year, to relieve him of his duties. Pretty damn bush league. It makes the new AD look bad, and the town look bad from the outside.  This simply could have been handled in a more professional way, and it wasn't.  But it appears the people in K'Ville don't care. Sad.

Perception is everything, the optics on this deal are not very good. Y'all got the guy y'all wanted, that's fine. 
A baseball coach who's had success (I know he hasn't won the titles elsewhere like Jones) was reassigned a few weeks into the season. That's pretty bush league. I don't know the ins and outs, I do know that I have never heard anything negative about Bennett. I can't say the same for Jones. 
I hope that Bennett lands on his feet somewhere, I'm sure he'll do fine. I hope the citizens and tax payers of Kirbyville are happy with the way this was handled, and experience tons of success.
I don't wish ill on anyone. In my opinion, this could've been handled more efficiently.
