What do you need? History? Community Support? Overall athletic success? Funding? Education? Tell me one area where Kountze out performs Hardin Jefferson please.

100% true.

Somebody help me understand why

HJ > Kountze in every way. Especially when HJ is home.

IF the man never moved from Humble to PA, he never intended to stay at PA. Simple as that.

Kountze and HJ are similar in that basketball is king. HJ has had some moderate success lately and shown they are willing to support the team. Joubert would be familiar with the type of program he was stepping into and be more resourced at HJ than at Kountze. He is definitely a football guy who is able to coach basketball at a high level, which might endear him to the community. Being a hometown guy he could be a uniting leader rather than one who causes a FB vs BB mentality. It's a no brainer.....considering he is interested.

They may have a basketball coach, but Joubert may be the best assistant in the state!! I am sure if he wanted to coach basketball, they would find him a seat on the bench.

Only if you are not familiar with Duane Joubert.

Lawdamercy!!! Bring the man home finally!!!! Get him out of the purgatory that is Kountze football!!!

Dicky V is somewhere trying to campaign for the BISD job because he was once TCAL coach of the year......ya know....that makes him a better coach than Dave Bliss since they competed against one another there.

Finally, some sanity. I have attended the entire championship weekend every year since 2012 and I can tell you, AT&T is the best there is to offer. The year it was at NRG felt stagnant compared to when it is at AT&T. Houston had its chance and the people of Houston did not turn up to the games. It's as simple as that.

Look for a certain athletic director from another of the smaller schools in our area to be in play for this one.

The old model didn't make nearly as much money as the new model. NRG, Alamodome, hasn't/won't make nearly as much money at AT&T. Drop the pipe dream. The games are where they will always be forevermore.

What happened to the guy who was at Silsbee, PA, then the girls coach at Kountze? I figured his name would be in the mix.

Walter Yates?

Except those coaches probably want to coach real football.

Those days are long over.

That's crazy. He's done a really good job there and seemed like he was invested in the school and community. I'd assume 6 man coaches in SETX are hard to come by.....especially good ones.

Is he taking another job?

For $40 dollars a month, you can get a nice package from Playstation Vue which can be streamed through the amazon fire stick. It has the local channels, espn, dvr capabilities......everything you need. Check it out.

This would be wild.

It’s because no one cares.

That only flies in West Sabine. If you have buddies that let you freeload off of their subscription services, then they're crazy.

Nailed it.

Seems he had a wealth of community support in 2009 when he was passed over for the job. Maybe he is being pushed out by the political powers that be again, or maybe he went back just to hang the finger out of the window when he got ready to leave. Who knows. [Hidden Content]
