I thought Day just took the Coldspring job last year?

And make no mistake, you're talking about a coach who had a team in year 3 (Hardin) that was a qb injury away from knocking out the eventual state champion Yoakum. I'd venture to say, he's a little above average as a coach.

Looks like to me, if you add in his 12-1 record from this past season, he has a winning record as a coach.

Oh he forgot about that game.

Oh, I wasn't referring to back ups, no-name johnny's and such. I meant, transfers that are an impact at one school, then go on to be an impact at another school. Those types of transfers, which are far more commonplace strictly occur due to "athletic purposes".

Has there ever been a transfer in the history of transferring that was NOT for athletic purposes?

The Hill

Exactly. Newton struggled with Jefferson who was not very good at all. Jefferson got blown out by Commerce. Commerce also wasn't great but had a decent run and lost out to Grandview. We all know what happened to Grandview - got handled by Yoakum in the championship. All in all, the numbers, matchups, and science from the entire season says it all. Yoakum was about even or slightly better than Newton. And Hardin/Yoakum were very similar in strength. Game could have went either way had QB-bishop not got injured.

Remained? When were they spread? They've only been spread for a total of 6 years, in the 4o+ years that I have been around. Ex-Wife taught there in the 80's and it's been pretty much toss left and toss right with the occasional veer and power I for the most part. Hadn't seen any spread days since Haynes left in 2018 or so. But to answer your question, I think the current HFC has them right where he wants them, in this 3-4 year successful campaign.

are there any local 4a school districts outside of HF and tarkington that dont have turf, newer or expanded bleachers, restroom add-ons, consessions, and upgrades to overall athletic facilities? at HF they got a few new amennities on the last go round, but it sure would be nice to have an upgrade to the overall football stadium.

Serious question, when was the last time Tarkington won enough games to be apart of the UIL HS football playoffs for 2-3 years consecutive?

at Ridge Point still or back into retirement?

Just kind of curious, when somebody in media, or in the know hears something that's undoubtedly true, what's the purpose of keeping it quiet? i'm just wondering if there's any benefit to withholding information in 2026. Like, example.....the same people that told you, please dont say anything, also felt it was necessary to tell many others the same thing, KNOWING darn well that those entities would not keep it quiet. you'd think that in todays day and age, if you didnt want somebody to know something, you just wouldnt tell a soul. guess that happens.......well....almost never.

It looks like Hardin is playing Crockett in Week 5

On a different yet more important note - The town of Warren could be SOLD and they still would not have enough money to purchase Scott Surratt

Didn't the great Cornel Thompson say something along the lines of "You can't win the kentucky derby with mules" ?

I often wonder who GA Moore would be had he coached in Warren for 44 years. Also, do you remember GA Moore for all his wins at Celina and Pilot Point, or the fact that he finished his career with two back to back losing seasons at Aubrey HS? I wonder, did he forget how to be great?

Oh. Apparently, this Newton fan above is also drinking the same Kool-Aid

Never thought of it that way. Great point. Always heard great things about the young man.

If said straw stirred the drink, straw would have received a full ride to play somewhere. So, Newton is better than Yoakum? The team Hardin had a lead on at half, until the QB broke his leg and no longer became a threat to run?

We must have been watching a different Newton team.

Why would Hardin not finish 2nd? Why would they not compete for the District Championship? Did they not beat Orangefield last year, who defeated Woodville 27-7 ? Is Newton better than Hitchcock, who beat Silsbee? Because, Hardin knocked off Hitchcock, or am I dreaming that? Where does this narrative come from that Hardin is going to fall off the mountain they climbed, by only losing two players? According to my sources, the two players lost to graduation, were not given scholarships to play college football? I was able to watch them online a few games and both of the RB's were exceptional, but perhaps some of that credit goes to the type of system they are in, with the size of that O-line, no? Seems to me some will have to be re-shocked at what Mr. Coach Taylor is doing over there, in Hardin.

Can somebody tell me where the district MVP of 10-3A is going to play college football? I have not heard anything yet

Where was he committed to?
