Try to teach kids about commitment and accountability and some parents and grandparents can't handle it. Support the coaches decisions whether you agree with it or not. They are just doing what should have been taught at a younger age. Great examples of a few things were shown tonight. What a good coach should do, and what grown adults should not. Stay classy L-Town, stay classy. 

They made a choice to play in a volleyball game for seniors at school today. Coach told them not to play cuz he didn't want them to get hurt and hurt the baseball team.  He's the coach and it is his rules.  Just like the real world. Have to do what the boss says or suffer the consequences. 

What did you expect? That's the nature of the coaching business.  A new guy is hired to run a program.  He is going to bring in 2 or 3 top assistants (usually to run his offense, defense, and special teams) that he knows, has his same philosophy, and he can trust.  Most places will give the coaches already on staff an opportunity to stay or leave on their own accord.  If you get into the coaching profession, you understand this, you may not like it or agree with it, but it's the business.

Why is being run heavy such a bad thing? Cy Ranch lost to a state champion Katy in the playoffs this year, in a later round I believe. Whatever offense he runs, it must be successful to play as they did in the Houston area.

Ty Cleveland, Sr. Kirbyville, hit #4 Friday vs. Warren

Everyone in the park knew it was a foul ball except for the 2 people that mattered most....... The 2 umpiring the game. Yes that's right they both said it was a fair ball.

Parker Moye threw for Evadale and James Burchett for Kirbyville. Both threw a quality game. Kirbyville wins 7-4 to close out the tournament. Great games, and hospitality room for 3 days. 

Scrimmages don't count toward anything. They are glorified practices 

Definitely not.  I don't coach period.  I'm not from HF, not a supporter of HF, not a spectator of HF, never even seen a HF athletic event, don't even have friends or family that work in HF.
I am a huge supporter of ALL coaches though.  Maybe you haven't seen some of my other replies.  I defend every coach, from every school, in every sport that is ragged on by people anywhere on this site.  SEVERAL of my buddies that I played college ball with got into coaching..and I have numerous family members and n-laws that are in education, or were in education.  I've heard enough about this situation to know that it's garbage.  I'll never understand why coaches do what they do.  No matter how hard they work, how many hours they put in, or how much they care the salary stays what it is.  And their entire way of life is at the stake of 15-18 year old kids.  Who seem to feel more and more entitled all the time.  All the while being constantly ridiculed by parents and fans that THINK they know more about it than the people hired to do it...because they are a 5 year veteran of coaching youth sports.
Honestly I think coaches are crazy for coaching.  But I guess I do understand (to an extent) why they do it.  I do but I don't.  And I can't stand when people run them down or talk negatively about how they are doing what they do...especially knowing that ALL coaches are at the mercy of the amount of talent they may or may not have.  Parents don't like to hear that their kids are just not any good..it's easier to blame a coach.  But anyway.. No I have zero ties to HF or to this coach we're talking about.  I just know a coach's life will most likely be affected because of this community.

Congrats kid. Well deserved. Plays the game the right way.....His daddy ain't too bad either!!!!!

Evadale tourney is going to be good this year.  Looking forward to some good games.

When these seniors were in the 8th grade Brock started their football program.  They started with only a 7th and 8th grade, then added the 9th grade the next year and 10th the year after that....When re-alignment came for the 14-15 football seasons they had a varsity schedule....The kids have only known one system and one coach....Yes they have won multiple state titles in other sports, both boys and girls, so there may be something in the water.... Congratulations to Brock.
