2019 FOOTBALL TEAM PREVIEWS

HARDIN HORNETS

2018 Record: 7-4 Overall, 4-3 District

4th Place in District 12-3A-I

 

The Hardin Hornets were able to do something that they had not done since 2008....qualify for the playoffs.  To repeat that, Head Coach Larry Haynes will be counting on a young squad who will have some veteran leadership up front up on both sides which should allow the youngsters on the squad to grow up.

 

Head Coach: Larry Haynes

Assistant Coaches:  Steve Firmin (Offensive Coordinator/Offensive Line/Defensive Line), Dylan Bethea (Defensive Coordinator/Linebackers/Wide Receivers); 5 assistant coaches lost due to budget cuts

Offense:

Five starters return to the Hardin offense in 2019.  The starting quarterback job will be determined during summer practice with junior Austin Potez and sophomore Caden Elmore vying for that position.  Junior running back Anthony Yeo will be counted on to fill the shoes of the graduated Darius White.  Sophomore Jermaine Albro will also see some carries.  Big senior receiver Michael Tidwell will be expected to carry a big load on offense.  He will be joined in the receiver group by fellow receiver Will Sims, Albro and sophomore receiver Logan Parker, as well as junior tight end Trenton Dickey (1st team all-district).  Senior offensive tackle Will Barrett (2nd team all-district), junior guard Paul Thonsgaard (2nd team all-district) and sophomore center Shane Holst will create a solid nucleus on an offensive line which will also include sophomore tackle Colby Barrett.

Defense:

Five starters return to the Hardin 3-4 defense in 2019.  Nose guard Thonsgaard (1st team all-district) and defensive end Holst return to lead a line which will also include Will Barrett and Colby Barrett at defensive end.  Junior inside linebacker Trenton Dickey (1st team all-district) returns to lead a linebacker group that will include seniors Hunter Creel and Jake Dicus.  Potez (2nd team all-district at cornerback) and senior cornerback Henry Duran return to lead a Hornet secondary which will also include Elmore at strong safety and sophomore free safety Ty Tinkle.

Special Teams:

Senior Laythe Furlow, who booted 11 field goals in 2018, will again be counted on to do the place kicking for Hardin.  The punting and return duties will be sorted out during summer practice.

Schedule:

Aug. 30 - Beaumont Legacy Christian, 7:30 pm

Sept. 6 - at New Waverly, 7:30 pm

Sept. 13 - Houston KIPP, 7:30 pm

Sept. 20 - OPEN

So they have a coaching staff of 3. 

I was just about to ask that.  That's crazy.  First year getting to the playoffs since 2008 and have to cut staff.  Sounds like someone doesn't want the Hornets playing good football...

Before asking any other questions, are these 3 individuals coaching the basketball, baseball, and track & field squads as well?  It would be highly unusual if there were coaches for these squads not assisting with football. I realize there could be Jr. High football coaches that coach other high school sports.  However, that staff is likely smaller than the high school staff, thus leaving a need for coaches at the Jr. High for their winter and spring sports. Simply odd and difficult to truly believe and/or understand.

You’ll have to keep that many to keep up with the 500 transfers you’ll have a year. 

I don't condone the transfers, anywhere. I believe students should attend the school where they come from, period.

from what i hear, several coaches left but it had nothing to do with budget cuts and everything to do with getting away from the current athletic director.  typical hardin dumpster fire

      You won’t get an argument from me that this won’t hurt her nationally but I don’t think this will hurt her in SD or even an appointment in a Republican administration.  I’m sure she saw backlash from some, apparently not from folks like you and me, which is significant, but like I said, I appreciate the honesty.

      Appreciate the confidence.  Why don’t we see how this works out for her.  Going great so far.  She MIGHT be able to get re-elected in South Dakota next election, but if a good candidate runs against her in the Republican primaries she may be in trouble.  I don’t think there’s a chance in hades she gets the VP nomination, and if for some reason Trump is dumb enough to give it to her, his chances of winning are probably over.  On a positive note, maybe DeSantis gets it now?  If they win and do a decent job then we’d have a VP ready to run for president in four years with a good shot of winning.

      I honestly don’t have an issue with it.  I grew up around livestock.  We had a neighbor lose nearly 30 animals in a 3-week period before they caught the dogs doing it. Those dogs needed to die.  I was there when my uncle killed a dog that was eating his chickens… didn’t bother me. If one of my dogs ever bites one of my kids it’ll be dead.  Immediately.  But some things are better left unsaid, and probably 90% of the country loves dogs, with only a small fraction of them being able to relate to why she did what she did.

      If only she was as politically savvy as you. 🙂

      Lots of republicans are giving her hell over this.  An overwhelming majority of moderates aren’t going to like it, and obviously the over offended left hates it.  She’s tanked her shot at VP, whoever you want to blame.  I stated in an early post that I don’t have an issue with some dogs being taken out if they’re biting and killing animals.  But it’s not your opinion or mine that is going to matter on this one.
