The next two best teams from this area were vincent and Co wilson...from what I remember in the last two years vincent only loss was from silsbee and last year in a tournament Co wilson only loss in two years was vincent by 1....All 3 teams blew out all other competition including the hj school...

I wouldn't bet the farm on what an eighth grade class accomplished. It's been my observation that if you have a lot of incoming freshman on your varsity you are usually 3 or 4 years away from being really good.

These two particular freshman would be two of the better players on most varsities in this area.  For sure in the district.  On the teams in the district, with the exception of their team and arguably HJ, they would be the best players on the other teams IMO.  So not your typical freshmen by any stretch.  Comes from playing against older players most of their lives.  And better players than they typically face in school ball.

Its hard to compare middle school teams and their performance in high school. Kids mature at different rates. Some will excel faster than others and some will become stagnant.

I remember when people were predicting how well  Nederland"s current 2016 class would do in high school when they were in the 8th grade. This class has had its growing pains.

I wouldn't count this group out just yet. While this group has struggled to find consistent offense, they will still be a force to be reckoned with this year. No team should sleep on them bc they will find a way to win.

    • Sure.  You reassign an employee and they leave voluntarily instead of being fired and being open to litigation.  The outcome is the same, but you are making my point.  The superintendent and AD and principal are all empowered to make personnel decisions.  Instead of accepting the decision made, you talk about lawyering up, no one else was reprimanded, railroad job.  I am old enough to remember when high school sports taught life lessons...accountability being chief among them.
    • I know absolutely nothing about the situation, but I do know head coaches of sports other than the AD have actual teaching assignments, and I know from my wife having worked in the sped department of multiple schools that it’s not uncommon at all for coaches to shirk those duties.  It could very well be that this was the case at BC.  Or not, I don’t know.  Just bringing this up to point out the fact that, although many coaches only want to worry about coaching, they generally have several other responsibilities at the school.  some of them neglect or ignore these duties entirely.  If he’s been written up for other issues before, it’s a dumb argument to say “he was punished for this and others were not”.  If he had a pile of write ups in his file and they did not then it makes sense that the punishments were different.  
    • He wasn’t fired, he was reassigned and people get reassigned all the time. If he was actually fired, then you would have a point, but he wasn’t fired. Based on the information presented here no way this would stand if they fired him and he lawyered up. 
    • I heard the assistant was going to get this job and assume it was referring to the old Vidor coach, Nate Smith.  I always thought he did more with less at Vidor and can't help but think he shares some responsibility in Vidor's recent success. 
    • Classic Bridge City.  Always someone else's fault, refs/umpires cheated, AD with an agenda, yada, yada, yada.  As far as I can tell it's damn near impossible to get fired at these schools so when someone does get fired, it's usually something.  Drama at Bridge City is a constant.  The guy did a good job coaching basketball and I'm sure he'll continue that somewhere else.  Time to move on.
