has the beaumont team moving on been crowned yet? if not who is the favorite?

Where is there information on the beaumont, houston, louisiana pony league tourneys? What areas in the golden triangle even still play pony?

Good hire, a couple of buddies of mine played for Denny at KW and really liked him.  Wonder why he retired though to begin with?

LOL I thought someone on here a while back was complaning that if your last name wasnt a certain one (think may was one) that you didnt have any say in BH...like I said I dont live or know any kids going  there, I just get to read about the soap opera's in the paper...and saw this gem today from the baytown sun.....


two things...
1) i think its great chancellor will be at crosby, a chance to stick it to BH twice a year! ( Nice going guys!)
2)Board member Benny May, who has a daughter on the basketball team, is telling the paper its all but a done deal on the new coach even though the next board meeting isnt until the 7th, ..that they the board gave approval to make this hire without a meeting...(inside job anyone? lol) The new coach is already meeting the girls...haha

Now is guess the next question is, did the daughter get on the wrong side of chancellor and wasn't getting the proper playing time that daddy board member wanted? If so then this all seems to go together.....too funny..maybet his was all part of the gage hiring, agreeing to make these moves to get his job..

New hoops coaches set for BH, Crosby

Nothing’s official yet, according to school officials, but only formalities remain before the naming of new girls’ basketball coaches at Barbers Hill and Crosby.

Administrative timetables prevent school officials from officially hiring new coaches now.

But Flower Mound Marcus coach Kit Kyle has already introduced herself as the new Barbers Hill coach, says a person close to the program.

Meanwhile, former Barbers Hill coach John Chancellor, who was reassigned as coach in mid-May, has told friends he is headed to Crosby.

Barbers Hill athletic director Ronnie Gage said Friday night, “We still have not made the hire official” when asked about reports that Kyle will be next to take over a program that won Class 3A state championships in 1983 and 1997.

“She (Kyle) may be (head coach) next week. Right now she’s not officially hired,” Gage said.

Friday was the final day of school at Barbers Hill and school board member Benny May said Kyle met with the school’s girls basketball players Friday.

The next school board meeting at Barbers Hill isn’t scheduled until June 7. But May, who has a daughter in the Lady Eagles program, said the school board gave superintendent Greg Poole the authority to make the hire without board approval in its last meeting when the job of girls athletic coordinator was created and attached to the girls basketball coaching job.

The hang-up at Barbers Hill is that the job must be advertised for 10 days before it is filled, May said. That 10-day window won’t close until early next week, he said.

“That’s why it’s not going to be official until Dr. Poole makes it official,” May said.

Board approval is required at Crosby, said Kevin Flanagan, the school’s athletic director. The next meeting, he said, is set for June 7.

Chancellor, who led Barbers Hill to a 29-6 record this past season and whose team won at least a co-district championship in each of his five years there, told friends late this week he had landed the Crosby coaching job which Flanagan said has been vacant since April.

The former BH coach replied to a message asking if he’d been named Crosby coach with a text message Friday night.

“No, not yet,” it said. “Waiting on board approval. Give me two weeks and I will talk to you all you want.”

Chancellor will be replacing Rhea Guillory, whose team was 5-9 and a sixth-place finisher in District 19-4A in her only year as varsity coach. Flanagan said all three high school girls basketball coaching jobs (varsity, junior varsity and freshmen teams) are currently open.

Kyle’s Marcus team was 24-13 this past season, finishing second in District 6-5A and advancing to the second round of the playoffs. She has 366 career wins as a head coach, all at Marcus.

She worked three years as a college assistant for current Texas A&M coach Gary Blair and two years as a high school assistant before being hired as head coach at Marcus.

LOL...well since no one knows "all the details" about anything they post here, we might as well just shut the website down then right? I don't know Gage from Adam,  but what I have seen the same type of thing in private business where some new hotshot VP or Manager comes in and surrounds himself with his people..people magically "resign" or what is the politically correct phrase, "they decided to pursue other opportunties" LOL.  We will see how it plays out, should be fun :)

Yep 4x4....Coach Byrd was at 1st base.  He is a retire/rehire, but that doesn't mean is guaranteed a job from year to year. 

As for Coach Chancellor, apparently Coach Gage felt like a change was in order for reasons we probably will never know.  I respect Coach Gage and like what I see.  If you have never been an Athletic Director or, better yet, won a state championship as a Head Coach AND Athletic Director, you might want to reserve judgment.  The man has a pretty impressive record and is VERY well respected throughout the state and not just as a football coach.  If you don't know all of the details, why don't you keep your armchair commentary to yourself and see how things play out next year?

Man I swear I saw coach byrd coaching 1b vs gcm in that last game????

Whats the purpose of offering the girls basketball coach a contract if it isnt for the job he already has and been dang successful in doing? That is kinda like thanks but no thanks. What a joke, no  one would with pride would take that offer.

LOL ok whatever you say. I dont have to read Rogers to see that since the new AD/Football Coach came that their the baseball coach left, the track coach left, and the girls basketball coach is no longer coaching. Not to mention Byrd being tossed to the side.  Sounds like to me the girls basketball deal, they set parameters for someone they have in mind while purposely excluding the current coach by putting in the 8 years experience requirement. But I am sure you are right, they all choose to leave on their own haha.  

Hey I dont care for Dave Rogers anymore than the next guy, but IF there is one thing its good at, it is digging behind the scenes.

I will repeat myself just to make sure you have accurate information.  The baseball coach was offered a contract and CHOSE to retire.  In fact, Coach Gage was very supportive of Stalbaum and attended every baseball game.  The track coach is NOT leaving.  He was also offered a contract and from what I hear will be back next year.  The girls basketball coach was ALSO offered a contract, was just removed as head girl basketball coach.  Tossing Byrd aside?  Last I checked, he retired several years ago. 

You and Dave Rogers can dig all you want.......I think he is pretty dirty so you might want to be careful!

whats the word on townley? is he staying or going? Running the option doesnt sound too appealing to me for a spread QB.

I agree with what GCM is saying. I didnt see this post when I made a similar observation on the coaching staff thread. I didnt think much of the change until I saw the Chancellor thing...I just cant see having a more ideal guy coaching at a high school with connections to a big time D1 program and his Dad being a coaching legend in the girls basketball arena. I am sure he will be fine but not sure how he wasnt doing his job or not qualified.

I have the same question in regards to the new BH coach. He sure is doing a lot of firing out there. Not sure how or why would fire the girls basketball coach whose dad was a wnba legend and current head coach at lsu.

Whats up with the New Coach/AD running off all of the other coaches in other sports? Is he surrounding himself with yes men? Running off chancellor as the girls BB coach seems a little odd.  I dont have a dog in the fight out there but reading all of these articles in the Baytown Sun has me scratching my head. Seems like Dave Rogers of the Sun too is trying to dig into it as well. 

Let us know if you guys get to play the ARMY team this weekend....got some friends on that team and they are pretty good.

where is the brackets for the tourneys? trying to find 2010 info?

If they were smart they would look at Charlie Thames at GCM

no doubt they have talent, I was only referring to the people they play during district...I know they beat GCM and Lee this year.  It's just a shame that the district this year was so weak when he had the talent to win TAPPS.

Stop me when im lying,and say what you will but Kades BCA boys have beat the like of GCM,Baytown Lee,Sterling and a couple of more 5a schools so the big scores was no fluke....Congrats Kade...

I dont know really, from what I heard though was the AD just wanted to try something different.....now that they have seen it first hand, I think they found out different wasnt better.  

Congrats but not much there in terms of talent..like Kade told me, if they didnt win every game by 20 he was going to make the kids run. Look for them to go back to TAPPS next year.

another tough loss....bottom 7th up 2-1 2 outs...that hurts

what a game

lee is the red headed step child of baytown..lol

tough game, both kids pitched very well...difference in the game was sterlings deep fly to left was just inside the wall and soho's was just over....

that and rss has runner on 3rd, one out and tried to squeeze...didnt get it done and the batter k'd....all they needed was a ground ball/fly ball from their 3 hole hitter. Defense was very very good by RSS. 

sweet...7 it is...cant wait

is the game at 6 or 7?

They should do away with the one-gamer.  Not at all represenative of a team effort.

I agree...my sr year we lost in a one game series when we were clearly the better team and had a deep deep staff....one bad game and it was over.....that team rode their one pitcher all the way to state playing one game series, then got to state and ran out of pitching and got smoked....that isnt right

Glad to hear GCM won...always nice to see BH go home a loser  ;D
