Not sure where the insults were but if you are trying to make the case that what Chad Taylor did at Liberty and Hardin is "average", I suspect most would agree that is "being silly".

Got it. Liberty, Hardin, Tarkington and "barely has a winning record". In Hardin's case, the absolute best ever for over a half century. Those three schools have always been football powers. He should have done much better. No excuse to ever have a losing season at those schools. Any coach who doesn't put 10 win seasons up yearly at those schools is "average". You are making yourself look silly with each new comment.

When you say "losing record", are you utilizing "math" or something else? He has more wins than losses, is 10-3 considered "good"? 8-3? 7-5? 7-4? for schools like Hardin, Liberty? Probably have a parade in the streets if Tarkington were able to win 4 games right now.

Yes, because Hardin is a place to “win year in year out”.

So, is he a good coach or bad coach? How has Liberty done since he left?

Another one just led Hardin (which has been similar to Tarkington” to their greatest season in school history.

You would need to ask him if he gets the job. All I can tell you right now is that he is a high caliber candidate with a plan and will be bringing quality assistants with him. Tarkington will be lucky to get him if he is chosen.

And light years beyond what would be seen in WV district.

One of the two candidates is a high caliber candidate and will come in with eyes wide open and a good plan. Don’t know who the other one is. However, getting good coaches has not been the issue. The issue is admin running good coaches off.

Hoping you are being silly at this point. I am sure everyone is getting a good laugh.

The discussion is about Warren, Kountze and Trinity. There is no comparison. Babin upgraded in competition along with every other aspect of education. Trying to say otherwise makes you a laughingstock. *** I doubt BH has little league coaches on the level of WV.

Dickinson, League City, Clear Lake schools.

BH not playing any of those teams. What are you talking about?

Benefits of playing "higher level competition" and "everything a kid would want or need". There will be no "Warrens", "Trinity's" or "Kountze's" where he is headed. Anyone comparing WV to BH in terms of what is offered, is engaged in a fool's errand. There is not a single thing better at WV than BH from facilities, academics, athletics, or anything else.

Very intellectual post.

Lol

Agreed. Little league coaches are the backbone of WV. No single player is greater than the little league.

Looking forward to seeing the talent level in WV. Probably a good time for the HC to meet with the little league coaches for advising about next steps.

LOL

Yep, the coach they planned to hire from the beginning told them to “pound sand” when he got all the information on the district. They will need to find someone who is naive and knows nothing about how schools run or what is needed to build a program. Whomever they end up with is likely to have a new Supt and school board shortly after he is hired. A new coordinator from one of the school types that you mentioned is probably the best bet.

Can’t pin point the exact cause. Like most situations it is a combination of factors. However, the ultimate responsibility of financial and staff mismanagement lies with the superintendent and school board. All of whom will be dismissed by the state in short order and replaced by a state board.

The current situation in Coldspring is unprecedented for Coldspring.

A fairly naive question understanding that you failed to read the question (or at least lost track of what was stated). Barbay has not been there in 11 years. Several coaches "made it work" in the past including Ken Stanley. What is happening right now has never happened in the district before. That is why TEA will be taking control in a few weeks and burning the district down. Did that happen when Barbay was there? Also, do you suppose that Barbay had an athletic budget?

Probably trying to get the first train out. Found out what Ken Stanley was dealing with. Coldspring might be the single greatest dumpster fire in SETX. District in the red with no athletic budget, community will not pass a bond for terrible facilities, TEA taking over after this year and will be subsequently burning the district down while implementing the new "HISD" pay plan that no decent teacher in the state will touch.
