[quote name="WOSgrad" post="997090" timestamp="1302743531"] In fact, after spending a few minutes on the phone with Mr. Guillory of the committee, I am even less assured that at any point during this process and I am even more convinced now that ever that Cornel Thompson is destined to screwed in this process. Shortly after griff posted the texting number for Mr. Guillory. I sent a text saying that Cornel Thompson is the only man the committee should consider for the job. I should have gotten the first clue when the response texted back to was "Y?" and that he wanted me to call him. In a call which ended with me hanging up on Mr. Guillory made it obvious to me that Coach Thompson is not only not the committee's top choice, but he is quickly being shuffled to the back of the pack by this committee. First, he denied that other coaches who he had contacted had told him that Cornel Thompson was the guy for the job. He then said that other coaches whose applications were more qualified than Coach Thompson for the position and then in the same breath told me that Mr. Colbert has ordered that the names of the applicants (We'll see about that as a FOI request has been made with the school district and we are awaiting their reply). Finally, contrary to what Colbert told the Orange Leader, Coach Thompson is not even guaranteed a spot as finalist for the position. He claims that Colbert was "misquoted" by Van Wade and that the Leader is to print a retraction on that (as one of the admins here is the editor of the Leader, I'll leave that for him to respond to, if he wishes). He claims that he has canvassed the community for choices and none of the names that he mentioned was Cornel Thomspson. As I told him, if he can't make a case for Cornel Thompson as head coach/athletic director, he isn't trying. And in reality, I don't believe they are. So, those that are hoping that the district do the right thing and promote Coach Thompson and that this process is just a way of complying with state law, you may want to rethink. [/quote]wow! Makes it even more interesting they contacted Brooks and he didnt even apply for the job.

aren't Jaguars becoming extinct? Enemies and Endangerment Humans are the main threat to the jaguar. A jaguar seldom, if ever, attacks humans unless it is cornered. Humans hunt the jaguar for sport, for its spotted hide, and to protect their domestic stock. The jaguar is endangered because it is hunted for its fur, and farmers kill the jaguar because it killed their cattle. Jaguars are reputed to be so destructive of cattle and horses that the larger Mexican ranches retain a 'tiger hunter' to kill them or at least drive them away. Poaching jaguars by hunting is still a problem, as there is a great demand for their coats. Today, there is still poaching, but not nearly as common as before. During the sixties and seventies, around 18,000 jaguars were killed every year for their beautiful coat. Formerly prized furs, such as those from the leopard, cheetah, or jaguar, may no longer be hunted in the countries where they are indigenous, and many other countries forbid their importation. The Federal Endangerment Species Act prohibits the importation and sale of these furs in the United States. In addition, special laws that protect certain North American species are enforced in the United States and in Canada, and wildlife refuges have been set up for the purpose of protecting the jaguar. The jaguar is a beautiful and graceful animal; it needs protection and conservation measures so they don't become extinct. The number of jaguars has declined over the last 100 years mainly because humans have slashed and burned many of their homelands in Central and South America; new cities are being built, and the forests and grasslands are being cleared. The destruction of the jaguar's habitat from logging and cattle ranching as well as having to compete with humans for food has brought a large decease in its population. One of the problems experienced by the jaguars is when the grasses that help hide them are dying because of smog problems. More jaguars are killed as the demand for their fur increases. In hunting, the jaguar is usually chased by dogs until it runs up a tree or until it is cornered on the ground; then it is shot. The Bororo Indians of Mato Grosso, Brazil hunt them with spears. When a jaguar is cornered on the ground, the hunter gets it to rush him, and then catches it on his spear as it leaps at him. Beware of the Titan sword. POW! :D -

That QB from Livingston will eat the Titan defense for lunch. Coach Neumann(sp) would have a sneaky little coaching stragedy in place for the Titans. Ozen's Green would rip Memorial up all on his own just like last year. Jags will outathlete the titans as usual. PN-G's overall scheme would kill the Titans. So that leave Vidor and LC-M. I think you lose to Vidor and beat LC-M just because Sonnier and Gonzalez are gone... [/quote]NED wouldnt be able to keep up with the speed of Memorial. We already proved last season that the Titans can easily own Central. Livingston and Ozen are one-man shows. Vidor wouldnt win in P.A. but will pay the refs and scoreboard keeper before kick-off if the game is in Vidor. LC-M would get absolutely smoked. PN-G would be the toughest challenge cause of their discipline. Discipline, there goes that word again. ;D -

[quote name="bedelmon" post="996199" timestamp="1302617568"] Scooter, I played on a State Championship team back in the 80's. I can tell you from experience, going to the playoffs is one thing, but winning a State Championship is a whole other ball of wax. Not only do you have to play sound football and have acceptional coaching, you also have to have a lot of luck and I think the planets have to actually line up a certain way. I think we played that entire year without loosing 1 starter to an injury or grades. That was I believe the first or second year of the "no pass no play rule". On top of that, our starters were composed of probably 8 or 9 juniors, 13 or 14 seniors, and 1 sophmore phenom. Its not an easy task but it can be done. [/quote]true +1 -

[quote name="dogs1218" post="996146" timestamp="1302584009"] Jones is a stud.. The lockout issue is going to be a huge influence for all the guys who are thinking about leaving.. This might make college basketball really competitive having two years of recruits staying together.. On a side comment... How good is Kentucky going to be if Knight, Jones, and Lamb stay? They are bringing in 4 players ranked in the top 18: including Davis(#1), Gilchrist(#3), Teague(#7), and Wiltjer(#18) [/quote]I've heard Knight and Lamb staying put.......just a rumor though -
