I fiGured Tremain would be the next head guy in Kountze and he may well be but they would do well to make Duane the AD.He is very familiar with all the sports and would bring a level of discipline they haven't had in some time.

[quote name="ABSENT!" post="1022782" timestamp="1310044586"] I know many of you dont like the guy but he has had success as far as winning at every program he has been apart of (as an assistant and a head coach)! The guys only issues is that I don't think he was ready for the politics of being a head coach and he did not know how to stay still. Other than that he is neither a bad guy nor a public travesty! [/quote]I personally don't have a dog in the fight however there is one small error in this statement.He was an assistant on the staff at Lamar Pt Arthur and was far from being in a winning program there.Every other position I had heard him mentioned in recently he left before he coached a game.I agree about the second chances but I'm not sure he would be the most qualified choice.

TASO usually starts their training sessions one night a week in August.They last a couple of months and will welcome the help I'm sure.They usually post the info on their web site.

Paul will be going, but I know in the heck it will not be in New Orleans... [/quote]I knew it wasn't gonna happen just syaing he has stuck with a team his entire career and carried them to a couple of finals.I admire that more than going the Yankees route and just spending your way to a title.

[/quote]Sometimes your talented , been recruited by major D1 schools but end up with an injury with senior year. Guess what? The schools stop calling. Your options? JUCOs. Other options, you have 5th year seniors taking the prep school route too. Not grades all the time  the reason you take JUCO route. ;) [/quote]Didn't mean to imply that grades were the only reason, just the talent level shouldn't be overlooked because of the JUCO title.Most of these kids can play.

He is responsible for the recruits, no doubt, but the young guys beat the recruiting trail a lil better.Not sure who the ties were but I remember 10/12 years ago alot of recruits coming from the Northeast.Can't blame Gilligan for slowing down on the travel trail it's just not as much fun when you get a lil older.

Gilligan didn't forget how to Coach folks.Baseball is one game where knowledge is learned and retained.The problem with LU baseball recently has been in their recruiting.That's where the young blood has gotta step up, we have some good local players but not the caliber that will consistantly get you to the super regionals.

Lots of talent in PA but it's not one of the premiere jobs in the state.Coach Henderson is a good basketball guy as was Coach Green.You gotta look past the coach's seat to see why this program has struggled .

Now I won't argue that point, way too many of these kids don't have either parent at the games.

Unfortunately this is partly the result of the me-me-me attitude of AAU basketball.Most of these kids haven't got a clue about the team concept of basketball so they take these calls as a personal attack.The first lesson this kid needs to learn is respect for authority, the second is the game is not about individuals, it's about TEAM.

Congrats guys on a good season.The near future on the diamond looks pretty good for the Warriors.

Congrats to a good young man from a very good basketball family.

[/quote] Actually, Dekaney is in Spring so it looks like they were looking north for the series. [/quote]Yea I knew it was in Spring , I was thinking maybe somewhere around Huntsville would have been a midway point and wouldn't have had the mad friday traffic.LOL.Good luck Warriors.

Congrats to the Warriors. I knew they would surprise some folks this year but they have played better than even I thought they would.Just a quick question for the Lions faithful.I know Price was touted as a solid pitcher all year but last night the Lions pitched 4 guys and he never toed the rubber, was he used earlier in the week? In a game the Lions had to have to have a shot at the playoffs I found that interesting.

Congrats, Thats impressive !!!!!! They are gonna be hard to replace.

Great guy and will do a great job if given the chance.

Young left hander #5 pitched for the Hornets.Pretty good ballgame to watch.Warren needed to show a little more patience at the plate.I don't think the Hardin pitcher threw over 15 pitches thru the first 3 innings.Not many errors in this one by either club, one base running blunder by the Warriors in the 6th but the kid was hustling and trying to create something so it's hard to find fault with that.This district is just about even from top to bottom.
