Hands down,Alan Hafford was the best qb to come though Jasper,his two years of varsity he only lost two games,his junior year his defense only allowed 13 points in the 10 regular games,therefore there was 8 shotouts on the schedule,but I truly agree with the earlier post about Walkoviak,he always put his teams in position to win the game,this what an excellent coach as well as a mentor can do for the success of a true winning program,he always placed the players in the right position based on their talents,this equation is what led to greatness during his era along with having a positive vision with all levels of the Jasper Football community,not only was he a great coach but he was a great mentor which prepared players for success on and off the field,he knew how to pick a positive coaching staff which cared about players in school as well as after they graduated,with this being said,it makes you think about people like Dan Hooks(WOS) and John Outlaw(Lufkin) these three coaches were great motivators as well as icons in Texas High School Football,if a coach doesn't carry these kind of characteristics a football program will never have success,unfortunately at this time we don't have a coach in Jasper that put kids in position to win the hard games or leave them with success for life after football.
