[coachdagough]

Former Nederland Bulldog Basketball Coach Jim Weaver ( early '80s to mid '90s ) passed away this morning in the Austin area due to complications from Alzheimer's Disease. Big Jim was the proud father of Jamie, who played his senior year at Nederland for his dad, and later played at the University of Houston. Coach Weaver was a basketball man who made the Bulldog Classic a great tournament. He was also Brian English's  ( current Bulldog head man ) coach at Nederland. He will be sadly missed by the basketball community. 

He is also survived by his wife, Jan and daughter, Kelli.

I played against his New Caney teams that had Jamie on them. He was a good coach and an even  better man.
