How do you get to the facebook live feed.

 

Thoughts?

Coldspring vs. Buffalo Friday at 7pm in Coldspring

It will be just fine. A very solid staff. People are going to be surprised. Just sit back and enjoy. I would look more at Buskens achievements rather than the salacious media stuff.

Well we ain’t talking about Ranger, Tx. We are talking about Coldspring where he will have talent to work with.

And solid as in where , who at this time of the year?? Most coaches that are “solid” are all under contract and working somewhere else. He’s gonna have to go to coaching school to hire assistants.  Plus, why wouldn’t he keep the assistants on staff?  They aren’t solid enough?!!!

It will be a good staff. Some assistants will be staying while others decided to go elsewhere before the hire was made. I just know this will be a good staff and I hope the people in Coldspring get behind it. The kids really like Coach Bird. He went to school in Groveton and coached in Groveton. So he knows what small town football is like.

If he is indeed the new AD/Head coach why should CS be happy about this hire and what exactly makes him such a great fit?  Don't know much about him other than being the son of a coach who won a state title at China Spring.  Just curious because his record as a HC is more than concerning.

You have to look at where he was at.  Also he is going to bring in some really solid assistants. 

He was actually the Defensive coordinator. The school website had it incorrect. 

Should have some news this evening after the school board meeting.

When will they announce? 

It won’t be to much longer. 

I think the people in Coldspring will be happy with the next hire. The guy will be a really good fit for Coldspring. 

He was previously at Quitman.

Dr. Leland Moore is the superintendent now. Not Gibson. 

Congrats to WOS on another great season. 

The Sheperd coaches did a very good job of adjusting in the second half.  I really hated to see it.  

This issue has nothing to do with academics or with players. The issue is strictly between the superintendent and Coach Barbay.

Im sure there's a number of schools that need a defensive minded HC. He'll be okay.

He runs the offense in Coldspring.

Coach Barbay was a DC before being a HC right?

Yes at Kirbyville.

You are correct that the superintendent has nothing to do with the play on the field. His job though is to make sure that the right person is in place to lead the team and athletic department. I think the biggest thing here is this guy is handing out a demotion to a department that has the least amount of issues. Coach Barbay has worked very hard to do what he has in Coldspring. Also this affects his family as well. No reason for him to be demoted. This superintendent is making a serious mistake with what he is doing. I really doubt this guy will be around in a few years. Coldspring is probably just another stepping stone for him to go somewhere else. Where as Coach Barbay was going to make Coldspring his last stop. Very disappointed with what is happening.

Pretty interesting match up for Coldspring playing in region 2 rather than 3. Tatum has some nice history. I think Coach Barbay will have them ready to play. I wish I was home to watch this one.

While I have to give it to Shepherd on the improvement they have made as a team.  It has really helped also that their are a couple of former Trojans on the staff that knows how to win.  I don't think Shepherd is at our level just yet.  It will be good for Shepherd though I think they get a playoff spot out of our district for the first time since who knows when.  Coach Barbay has had two weeks to prepare for this and will have the team ready. 

In recent days it has been talked about that Charlie Strong pulled Johnny Shaw's offer and that it has affected the relationship between the Coaches at WOS and Texas.   Any word on this from the WOS folks? 

They scored a big win with this Coach. I have been at practices and watched him coach up close and he is phenomal. He is a great coach and should be able to turn Diboll around immediately. I hate that he is leaving, but he deserves it. I really hate that we gotta play against him every year in district.

Well that's cool to keep that little rivalry going.
