I haven't seen one. This Foreman stuff might not even be true. I just want someone with a track record that will get the most out of those kids. Jasper deserves a contender and we've always had the kids to do that, but they need to be well coached. They have a gem of a DC in Bronson, but the offense needs to be retooled and in the weight room. Physicality was badly lacking last season on that side of the ball.

I have a wait and see approach to the situation at WOS right now. I wonder why they really passed on Foreman when he was the people's choice down there.

He'll have more to work with in Jasper than he has had anywhere else as a HC. I just need him to show me he can win and I'll be fine. We don't to start cycling through coaches again. I know Barbay was there for ten years, but it was a mess before that.

I'm not thrilled with this if it happens. Not at all...

RIP, Sammy. You'll be missed. Teach Jesus about WOS football. He'll love it.

I don't think he'll go anywhere unless someone gives him the moon. I still think he could be leveraging to get more from Cuero.

Yeah. I do too. I like him, but it's not a smart move on JISD's part. It'll be interesting to see who they decide on.

Could the source have been someone else that interviewed and pulled out of the process?

I agree with both of you. It should be half that, if not fewer.

That's way faster than me. 😁

That's huge for us if it's true. I don't know what it would mean right away on the field, though. What does he run?

You nailed it. Dodge should just be a consultant/recruiter. That's it.

Our offense has to improve drastically and hopefully our new HC can help make that happen. The defense should be good again. Objectively, I'd put us third at this point behind Silsbee and WOS (not necessarily in that order). It'll be an interesting season for sure.

Smarta**! 😂😂

I'd be surprised if that's a road game.

I hear ya, Coach. I know it's a tough business. Seems like you've enjoyed your time there. We don't know each other and I haven't lived there in a long time, but I'm hoping you get to stay. It really is a great program.

I'm sure you get tired of answering that question. I'll mind my business. LOL

Nice! I know Palestine's not quite what they used to be, but both of those should be good games. Are we getting closer to finding a coach? I know you can't name names. LOL

I'm guessing realignment has a lot to do with this. The new district should be top heavy with WOS, Jasper and Silsbee in some order followed by everyone else. It'd be cool to get Newton on the schedule somehow.

Is there a list somewhere?

It would be more cost effective to have one person in both roles. I wonder if he's working on getting it or if he'll be content being a coordinator for a while. Any idea who else might be interested other than maybe Coach Alvarez?

I think you're right. Coach Alvarez came to Jasper as an assistant in either '89 or '90 when I was a student. We had a fun coaching staff in those days and he was a great guy when I knew him. I haven't seen him in almost 30 years, but I would be thrilled if he came back to lead the Bulldogs.

Agreed. Foreman is well regarded down in Orange and I think he knows how good a job Jasper is, but Alvarez wins everywhere he goes and Bronson is going to get a HC job somewhere soon. Either one would be good for us and both know the program.

I hadn't seen that. Thanks.

Why would he choose Jasper when WOS is still open? He wouldn't be allowed in Orange after that unless he drove Jasper's program into the dark ages. 😂
