Just an old Coach

The fact that you keep calling them "Gilmer Harmony" tells me all I need to know. Go look at the records, strikingly similar to Orangefield over the past several years. With the exception of the State Title appearance and deep playoff runs they've had in the last two years. Wonder what the difference was in those 2 years? 

They never made it to state at Harmony.  Lost in the semis to Poth.  Harmony has had good athletes over the years and has well over a .500 winning percentage before Jenkins got there.  So please don’t act like or think you know that he had to turn a downtrodden program around in his 2 years there.  They had a loaded senior class this year, that was the catalyst for their long run last year.

Passed on Jenkins......write it down, this will bite them in the arse. 

Not as much as you think

Had the pleasure of playing for and coaching with Coach East.  Great man, mentor, coach, father, and friend.  He will be greatly missed. Condolences to his wife, children, grandchildren, parents, and relatives.

and dont forget.,,..........

 

Four-star Aeryn Hampton, a one-time Texas Longhorns commit, has enrolled at an East Texas powerhouse Carthage after transferring from Daingerfield.

He is back at Daingerfield

I don’t have a “bulldog” in the fight but would he be an Indian soon?

It’s funny listening to Van Alstyne complain about someone running the score up.  How about play some defense with your 1’s still in the game playing against JV and freshmen.

I see ol Leon is back!!  How did it work out for Anahuac this year?  Keep making those awesome predictions man, one day you'll get it right.

Way to go Bucs!!  Still owning Chambers County!!

Newton/Paul Pewitt since its in my neck of the woods

Ridiculous, they should play the game if they have 11. Hate it for those seniors and for the team going to the playoffs. Tough to take a week off right before the playoffs. Kills your rhythm. 

This may be one of the dumbest comments ever.  If they have 11 play the game, yeah right.  Who in their right mind would try to play a varsity football game with just 11 kids.  Plus if they cancelled an Area Round volleyball game because of covid, then it must be serious.  I know those kids in HI, would strap it up no matter what, in the face of all odds, but there are things that are beyond their control.

6-7 new that wasn’t rostered last year 

Delusional!!  You've had an ax to grind against EC for a while.  Don't be mad because K'ville can't beat them, or is it because no one in their right mind would want to transfer to Kirbyville.

Kids are lazy didn’t want no part of two a days so they start later

Forget that nonsense.  You can't make it for 2-a-days, you can't make it later.  Unless the kid is new to the school, that is a bad trend to start.

I didnt know that seniors could play on JV

I've played seniors on JV.  Its usually guys that only come out their senior year, or can not help the varsity in any way.  There is no UIL rule that says a SR can't be on JV.

I hate when people say bad move and lateral move, maybe that is where he wants to coach, maybe LCM has been his dream job, Maybe that is where he wants his kids to go to school, Maybe that is where he wants to live.  You never know what a coach is thinking but I can guarantee he will do what is best for his personal family

Relax dude.  I was just comparing the jobs.  I never questioned The coach for his reasoning if he was to leave.  I’ve been in the profession for a long time and also know the decisions that are made when you leave a job to move to another.  

If that rumor of Peevey leaving West Brook for LCM is true, that is not even a good lateral move.  That would be a step down from a 6A HFBC to a 4A HFBC.  

You forgot Alba-Golden in there somewhere.

Who scored for Lumberton?

Leon the bold predictor,  again I ask, what was EC going to pay for?  I’ll understand if you don’t answer. 

You keep saying "y EC lo va a pagar", what are they going to pay for?  A new District Championship trophy, because that would be my best guess.

Yes I am from the area, it was posted on here but I got it 1st hand. One of the guys was a starter but he got in trouble & got kicked out of all athletes 

I thought it was on here.  Just didn’t want to start anything that wasn’t already said.

I know it was posted on here last basketball season.  I'm just going off that info, but I thought that it was known.

For starters they get the two kids back that didn't get to play last year due to off court issues. Also they got a transfer from Big Sandy that is good.

Lions should be much better this season.

Which Big Sandy?  Dallardsville or Big Sandy?

Wasn't it 2 brothers that got kicked off the team or something to that tune?

How much did this visit to Orangefield effect EC? Will it have an impact on the next game? And the next? Go Bobcats!!!

 

It didn't effect them to much, they still won.  The score is much closer than the game actually was.  2 late scores makes it look deceiving.  So don't get your hopes up Leon.
