  1. You'll get no sympathy from HJ this year on missing players.  They lost coaches, players, a great senior class to graduation....you name it.  I am very proud of these boys and this team.....they are young but have been finding their way each week as they should....quite a few bumps in the road but are starting to play more as a team the last few weeks.  Just find a way into the playoffs and see what happens.  O'field is always a tough game and have kin playing on both sides.....HJ takes this one to start district.   Go Hawks

  2. AAW, the Gene Isabell 643 speaks of is Sr....he was principal at hj hs when Gene Jr. played basketball and graduated from there. He is also correct of the baseball field located on the school grounds....i believe back in the 80's they brought in some fill dirt to put on the base paths to level the ground....it was full of pebble rock....great to play on!
  3. SFA had some really good athletes come through there....don't forget Kenny Ford, Graylin Johnson....some guy played linebacker for them with Ford, i believe he went on to play ball in Ok...may Ok St....don't remember his name.  SFA ranked #4 that year....had really good team....beat HJ in the last two minutes of the game....HJ went 8-2  that year but didn't make playoffs.  There have been some really good football players come through HJ as well.  AAW thanks for remembering some of those guys at hj. 
  4. funny how so many of you were "upset" with the coaching change at HJ and placed the blame on "lack of talent"....the real deal is that each team in the district chocked a "W" beside the HJ game on the schedule each year and now with the right coach in here things will not be that easy.  I'm not going to sit here and say who we'll beat and who we won't.....i just want to see HJ be competitive week in and week out.  It's time to earn the respect of the opponent across the field from you.....be able to shake the hand of the opposing team after the game and know there is a true respect between the players from the war that just took place on the field.
