  1. Metroplex move might be too late. I would assume buying and selling a home would be tough on a coach. I think the Head Coach could be taken care of with all the resources BH has but his assistants would be the tough part. Head Coach of that caliber with uncertainty of bringing in his coaches has to be a turnoff. And your coordinators would be first in line for your old job. I like the idea of Lovejoy/Georgetown/Pioneer but I think it has to be closer to home. There are some Purple Indians who have the same emphasis you're talking about. Rumblings are Offense is the emphasis but it will be a different style.
  2. I think you heard what I heard. Everyone is excited for The Friends Reunion, why wouldn't Barbers Hill fans be excited for an early 90s offense?
  3. QB Sneak? So you're saying the QB lined up under center 80% of the time? I will disregard and ignore all your comments for lack of football knowledge.
  4. Can someone clear this up. Did TW leave because he was forced out or is he running for the Hill country because of the superintendent? His son is not taking over which was the plan all along. When he left for Whitehouse it raised some red flags. Something has been brewing.
  5. I bet they reached out to Surratt. And he informed them that he already makes that much money. Who's next? Wouldn't think John Kay but Westerberg left Allen. Maybe they should go after a smaller school coach. What about Chris Koetting? Head coach of Canadian.
  6. I met Stan once, I left the conversation excited... meaning I was excited to leave the conversation. In doing my research, looks like Stan the man was 6-23. The successful year of beating Mexia was under Carpenter. Brandon Carpenter the new coach at Klein Oak. Jesus was also a carpenter. So it will probably take another carpenter for Longhorns to be relevant in football, either Jesus or Brandon doing charity work.
  7. I didn't realize Tarkington was 3a now. Do we consider Tarkington SETX? If so, can we go ahead and recommend Lance Dale to the Tarkington School Board?
  8. There has to be some blame on Admin for the lateness. The coaches carousel will happen and coaches will do whatever they think is best for themselves. The lateness has to be an administrative issue most likely money and bureaucracy. When was Humble officially opened? It feels like a month. Now, Splendora is going through the process at the end of school and how many coaches are going with him? Hopefully they have someone in mind and hire quickly and Humble hires the coaches going with Shultz quickly. I hate seeing jobs come open late because it ultimately hurts the athletes. Admin should be there to protect the athletes by hiring quicker and reassigning (if need be) earlier. Unfortunately, coaching jobs will always be open in June.
  9. Cross Country coaches are not football coaches because it's during the same season. Only knew a few football coaches who coached cross country and they were doing the AD a favor because they couldn’t find another coach. Like I said to Dayton, we can agree to disagree on the skill level of T&F. My point about track was they reproduce the same physical movement over and over in competition. Other sports have more variants that require continuous adjustments, adaptations and reactions (relays have some). 100m will always be 100m and so on with every running event. All vertical and horizontal jumps, you replicate the same number of steps and jump off the same leg every time (when it doesn’t feel right, don’t put your pole in the hole or touch the mat or throw the object and you can redo). I’ll refrain from comparing training for track and power-lifting and how similar they are. I enjoy watching elite T&F. The Texas State Championships should be on everyone’s sports bucket list. Let's get back to underachieving Summer Creek Football.
  10. I've seen plenty of old film, and I hate to break it to you Uncle Rico's living in 1985 (1975 for PNG fans), but tackling wasn't that great back in the day. Some down right atrocious at times. Offense didn't use space like the offensives of today. More space = advantage offense. Offensive athletes are starting in that at the position because guess what, they can make the big play. Good offensive players are going to make people miss. Bad offensive players don’t get the ball. Every school at every level has guys that can run through tackles or make people miss.
  11. If DK Metcalf trained to be a professional sprinter he would weigh less than 210 lbs. He’s 6’3 235 right now. Bolt was 6’5 207 for reference. Fred Kerley 6’3 205 is a good comparison. You are right, track athletes have “physical” skill or athletic ability. But I classify skill as in hitting, shooting, catching, defending, and passing/throwing to name a few. Anything that requires adjustment, reaction, adaptation, and combination of different body functions to perform a task. I see track as a continuous replication of physical activity with the skill level being low because of limited adjustments, reaction, and adaptation. WE CAN AGREE TO DISAGREE ON THE SKILL LEVEL OF TRACK. I once knew a 3x state champion track coach and his coaching point was to “run fast and turn left.” But many athletes would run through a wall for that coach.
  12. Nothing to see here. Run fast and turn left, jump over anything in the way. That takes a lot of skill (sarcasm). Football should not be compared to track. Devils Advocate: Track requires the least amount of coaching and team cohesion. 99% of high school track coaches are all football coaches 1st.
  13. I personally don't know the guy but that was shady. Watched his teams play solid defense and I think he's probably a good coach. But I wouldn't want that guy leading athletic department. Have some fam that will be going to the new school, and I want the best for them.
  14. Maybe WOS needs to audition for QB! Even with the defense, if you can't run and pass you limit your chances to win all the games. Wasted talent is not fun to watch. I've done that too much lately.
  15. What is Aledoalum doing here? Did y'all expand the recruiting area? Who you watching in the 409?
  16. Last PA game I saw was Shadow Creek... I went to watch Shadow Creek. Guilbeaux going to be a Senior? Huge fan of great DB play. But thats all I know about the Titans. Is J&J still on the way to the stadium?
  17. United definitely on the list. Intriguing and would like to see what year 2 brings with the coaching staff. I heard the up and coming talent in Beaumont is extremely high. Cheddars before and Deaux after doesn't sound bad. Best band in the area is a definite plus. Basketball is not a convincing arguement. Does that mean early exit to get ready for basketball season? How many basketball kids play football (I know Rivers)?
  18. Looking at the map, Anauhac to PA to Jasper makes a good coverage area. I'm lucky enough to work 1/2 days on Fridays so travel not an issue and also have a secondary humble abode at Rayburn. Willing to travel to follow a good team.
  19. Moving back to the 409, not Galveston County, and my Friday Night fandom is up for grabs. Things that I’m looking for: 11+ games Young talent to follow the next few years. Solid message board following. Great place to eat near the home stadium (cheap cold beers are a plus). One thing I’ll love about the team/school. One thing that I’ll hate about the team/school. Let's go SETX message boards. Help me out.
  20. [Hidden Content] Correct. Coach Holley was at KP. Left for a year and was the Director of Athletic Operations (I was wrong about AD) of New Caney. He also was on the interview committee for the Porter Job. Decided there wasn't any "good" candidates so inserted himself to be interviewed. He of course got the job over some quality candidates.
  21. Wasn't he the AD and then took over when Porter was new? Don't they have plans to build a new high school next year?
