    When you have the kind of success that Coldspring had and then roll the coach, well...... you get what you get and don't throw a fit.  

     

    Only a handful of people wanted to change coaches. Main one was a sorry excuse for a superintendent, who didn't care because he had no intention of staying long enough to see the damage happen. Unfortunately we had a group of spineless school board members who went along with it! I voiced my opinion then with the school board and remind them all the time that this manure show is their doing! Doesn't help the kids much though! Their high school years are being taken up by this losing program! 

  2. For me it isn't as much about the type of offense or defense they choose to run. Everyone has their ideas of what works and what doesn't. 

    It is things like clock management. The first game against Huntsville that you referenced we had the ball with very little time to go in the first half. We were on our side of the field. We could easily have run out the clock, but instead threw 3 incomplete passes, then went for it on 4th down and turned the ball over with time for Huntsville to take 3 shots at the end zone. This has continued to happen for several years now. Several games I have watched is with a less than one touchdown lead snap the ball with 12 or 15 seconds on the play clock for the entire series,and then give the other team 1 or 2 minutes on offense to try and come back on us. In Kountze this year, we called all of our timeouts in the 4th quarter to try to score another touchdown with a huge lead. Why? Because the coaches had a bet going on how many passes they could throw in a game! The coaching staff does not know how to win!! They waste talent and are losing players because of it. Our best player last year who had several offers from D1 colleges almost didn't play his senior year, because of the coaching issues that plague this team.Community members had to talk the young man into playing and he had to get his schedule changed to get back into athletics for his senior year because he was seriously done with them. By the way, he has 2 brothers who play in college, so he knows a little something about how it works and had legitimate offers to go play. Instead he is in welding school because he doesn't want to play football anymore.  They killed his love for the game and made him not want to be around it.   But as I have said before, the only reason Coldspring isn't as good anymore is because the talent just isn't there, or so they tell me.  But as our AD and head coach says, he cares as much about 7th grade volleyball as he does about Varsity football! I guess that is why he hired a 7th grade volleyball coach to be the varsity volleyball coach! If all of the teams lose then people can't complain about you favoring one sport over the others!

  3. Sadly Both UPS and FedEx use the postal service to deliver packages for them. They make money by charging you to deliver and then paying the post office to deliver it for them!! Besides, what kind of business comes up with the idea that if you come to my office and pick up your stuff I charge you a yearly fee, but I will deliver it to you for free all year?  Pizza Hut and Dominos both figured out it costs more for delivery than take out, but the post office works backwards!

    They won't next week either...too soon? 

     

    Nah, about 3 years too late! With the current coaching situation in Coldspring I can't get butt hurt over losing! Would be the worst case of hemoroids ever heard of. Of course as I keep getting told, the talent just isn't there! It's a shame to blame the kids for the destructive nature of a superintendent! But what the heck, he moved on to another district. Been watching the Trojans for a long time. They sucked before Barbay got there, and they suck again after he left, but I guess he just had good timing and got the only good group of athletes to come through Coldspring. it is terrible to watch a talented group of kids work their butts off to get beat because you get out coached every week. Luckily the rest of the district is terrible enough so that we still make the playoffs. 

  5. Coldspring has the athletes to compete and win this game. Kirbyville will play a good game, and do their thing. This game will depend on which coldspring team shows up. If they are prepared and play the way they are capable, Coldspring wins by 2 scores. If they come out flat and have a bust for a game plan, kirbyville will blow them out! Being a district game that could mean a lot this year in the final standings, Coldspring should be ready! Five time undefeated back to back district championships on the line!! Let's go Trojans!!
