    Head coach Clay Davis has resigned as head basketball coach at Hardin-Jefferson. Clay will be taking an Assistant Principle position at Splendora ISD so he will be leaving the coaching profession. Clay's wife has been working for Splendora ISD the last two years, commuting back and forth. Totally understand Coach Davis move here.

    This will be a very interesting hire. Don't expect a promotion. Will definitely be an outside hire. History rich program to a very good school district. Definitely will draw some interest.

    Good luck Coach on your new job. Hawk Basketball and gym just won't be the same without you. 20 years at HJ. I will miss our talks and watching you coach the game.

    Clay Davis record as head coach:

    Tatum/Jasper/Hardin-Jefferson

    14 years 

    334-140 overall record

    122-30 district record

    9 district championships/co-championships

    5 regional quarterfinals or better

    Congratulations Coach Davis! I am astounded that you could leave coaching, but I wish you well. By the way, in case you have forgotten, I still owe you a steak!

    yes sir.  

    those 3 you spoke of were my classmates.  

    Ben,John ,Terrence

    Zach the uncle was a year behind us.

    Counting that way makes FOUR to the NFL! Not shabby for a little East Texas town! Many much larger towns would be happy to have had one player make it to the NFL, ever! And as an aside, two kids that did not play football made it to the 96 Olympics in Atlanta. That same year, the newspapers in San Antonio, with a population of over a million, was bragging about having ONE athlete in the Games

    Thats solely because of what happened in the Silsbee game already. Don’t read too much into it. 

    I think taking the quiet approach is pretty much the Jasper way. Oh, we poke fun a little bit sometimes, but rarely seriously. Jasper has had too many very good teams get sidelined over the years. One of the very best didn't even get out of the district. That Jasper team sent THREE players to the NFL. Two lasted long term. One was an uncle to the Jasper Defensive Coordinator. No, Jasper fans know to pretty much keep the trash talk down.

    I'm feeling 41-7 ish 

    Make it 41-6 and I will tell you a story. Once upon a time, another 4 loss Jasper team met up with Bellville fairly deep in the playoffs. Same Regional Simis as I remember. Jasper of course not given a chance. Bellville had the famed Ernie Koy, Jr who would go on to star for UT and the NY Giants. Final score; Jasper won 41-6. But of course that won't help Jasper this time around........ Oh, if you want to look it up, the year was 1959. Just yesterday in my mind!
