I have a co-worker who’s son attends LCM and is going into the 10th grade next fall. He plays baseball and played football in jr high but not his freshman year. He said Peevey had a meeting with all parents of anyone in athletics and told them he had an open door policy but if the topic of why thier kid wasn’t playing enough or playing a different position then the conversation would be over. He Said the coach stated very throughly he would not tolerate that at all.  We shall see. I hope the best for them, but it’s gonna take a culture change from the parents to make it happen.

Manor,Texas close to Austin, might as well say he moved to California 

probably cause theres not much there in Winnie. I mean in the way of jobs and housing
 

Things y'all have to remember when you don't see kids from schools on the list:
1)  The coaches may not have submitted any names for the all-star game. 
2)  They may not be members of the SETXCA
3)  They may not have paid their dues, therefore, they can't nominate players.
 
I'm a Director with the Association, trust me, there are coaches who simply don't submit names to be considered.

I wanted to let everyone know that High Island has hired former FW Pascal head football coach Matt Miracle as its new head football coach. 
I have been offered and accepted the Offensive Coordinator/Quarterbacks Coach position at Bastrop High School. 
I'm excited about this opportunity but I will definitely miss Southeast Texas and all the great coaches, media folks and people I have met down here the last 3 years.

Good luck coach. You did a heck of a job at HI and they’ll have issues finding someone to fill your shoes. 
Glad you can take a joke! 

And?
I'm kidding.
I have more experience coaching 11-man than 6-man. Nothing has been finalized in regards to my situation but hopefully everything will happen by next week.
Yes, I did resign from High Island before having another job lined up. I did this so the school would have more time to find a quality coach to come in; that's important for me in regards to the kids. 
I am excited about the work that we did at High Island where the football program is moving forward. 

LOL!!! Great question. I don't see a reason why they wouldn't. Its been fun to do and its become a great resource.

Coach, the real question is whether the six-man chats will continue??

High Island Head Football and Baseball Coach John Bronkhorst has stepped down as head football coach.  He will remain with High Island baseball until the end of the season after which he will end his tenure at High Island ISD.
Coach, thank you for your help over the years and good luck at your next stop.

Worst stadium in all of football
Only other one I can think of is Chester

High Island

The HJ job is tough for anyone to take.  It does not pay very well, LOW BUDGET, the district will not improve facilities(you can see that by not having baseball lights.. still the laughing stock of the state), Jr. high in cubicles(FEMA will not give them any money until they raise the old high school up like 2 ft.. which will not happen), the people in the district will not pass a bond(they feel the money from last bond was squandered, things that were supposed to be done were not), new AD will not be able to run a 4A athletic program correctly without interference from other head coaching sports (this will not change, look at Admin., any other school in the state of Texas if the head of other sports have any problems with the way the AD is running things... they would be gone.. that is not going to happen at HJ. 
Until these things are fixed.. HJ will be nothing but a stepping stone and will get only coaches that will use it that way.
