Well, technically every school district in the state has a border.  And every border has property that might be right across the street.  And most people (if they know how the system works) do not need family members in neighboring cities.  Especially because of rental properties and apartment building.  Like I stated earlier.

And also, like I stated earlier.  The only sure-fire way to keep people from "working the system" is to just have everyone sit a year.

BG, someone needs a mailbox, stat!

It's very rare that a coach will deny the PAPF. It's the old "do unto others" code.

Just not a fan of all the transferring. Too much focus on the "me" and not the "team". Just an old school opinion.

 

 

It's not that that people have to worry about.  The previous AD will likely check off on it.  And, the district committee will likely approve it.  AFTER that it still goes to UIL.  If the student didn't change address or the new address isn't in the new school district.  Then it will probably result in sitting a year.  But like I've said...so easy to get around it.

If every student athlete has to sit out a year, then every coach should have to sit out a year also.  For instance, the stuff that Suggs pulled at Ozen.  Not having an offseason, resigning at the very last minute when he knew he was going to leave, and pretty much abandoning the kids and that football program was wrong.  He should have to sit out a year also.  I ask this question again!  Why should the kids be loyal to a football program when no one is loyal to them?  And also, I would not want a student athlete to play in my program if he really didn't want to be there.

Pretty much the same argument that is made for college kids transferring after signing an LOI.

I went to 3 different school my Jr year all for sports and everyone knew it was for sports.... all we did was move my Fathers camper in the school dist and say we were living there..... which we never did, i would drive back and forth from my house to school. Than my Sr year my home town school got a new coach was i "Moved" back there..... If the kid or parents want there kid to go somewhere better for sport there really is no stopping them, its to easy.... and like someone said earlier "it will never change"

      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.
