The fact that you keep calling them "Gilmer Harmony" tells me all I need to know. Go look at the records, strikingly similar to Orangefield over the past several years. With the exception of the State Title appearance and deep playoff runs they've had in the last two years. Wonder what the difference was in those 2 years? 

State Semis??

This is probably the primary reason the chirpers above didn't feel like he was a good "fit". Might get in Little Johnny's way of being the first air raid QB in the history of the Orangefield program. Either way, I do not know Coach Breaux, and I wish him the best of luck. I just can't get over the fact that a coach with state championship experience applied for the Orangefield job and didn't get it. That's probably the darndest thing I've ever heard on this site! If they'd do a little research, the reasons he has had so many job changes are understandable and clearly worked to advance his career. His oldest is heading to Lamar and his younger son is about to be a freshman. Sounds like a pretty good shot for, at least, a 4-year term. If he delivers to Orangefield in those 4 years what he has delivered in Harmony in his 2 years there, I promise you the candidates for the job next time would be significantly better than the list they had for this opening. But, hey, we gon' run da spread!!

What exactly are you implying? That Jenkins was a “no go” because he was bringing in a QB like Sanders at Colorado?

Only reason I can think of is the job hopping.

He has a son that is a going to be a freshman and is a QB. OF already has starting QB that started as a freshman last year. If they bring him in you know he would want his kid to be the QB. That would not sit well with the community because the freshman starter is very well liked by the players and community. OF community is very tight knitted. That’s probably a big reason they shied away from him.

Or maybe this guy wasn't well known and Breaux has shown success locally and people know more about him than they got from a couple interviews.

Uhhhh the community wants wins and a coach who will put the kids in the best position to win. I didn't know positions were locked in regardless of who coaches especially after a not so good season.

That's an absurd excuse there 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

Guess it's time to rollout some mailboxes in Orange County from Louisiana, I charge a monthly fee though. 😁

I don't blame you on the fee, a man has to do what he can to make money in this economy. You need to hit the Ned booster club president up, i am told that crew will pay top dollar for any advantages....

How many coaches does Breaux get to bring with him?

How many must he retain?

How good are the ones he will be forced to retain?

How good are the coaches he is going to be able to attract to Orangefield?

We are gonna have to consult our coach quality control specialist @Reagan for the proper answers to these questions. 😂

Welcome to the spread

I still haven’t figured out why OF fans are in such a hurry to run the spread lol. There are lots of really bad teams running the spread, & we won a ton of games with the Slot T over really good programs. The Slot T fit our athletes well. Parents with very little football knowledge hate On the Slot T all the time, I’ve lived in OF for over 40 years, go look at some of the records we had before the Slot T, it wasn’t all sunshine and rainbows. I hope we go 10-0 next year but LCM hasn’t exactly been world beaters. I’m optimistic but I’m also realistic, and I feel the Slot T was very good for OF.

I played with the best passer in OF history as far as stats go (not granger). But we passed out of a Pro Style, power I based formation

Slot T beat Newton back to back years, can’t wait to see them try to run 5 wide against a Newton caliber team.

They never made it to state at Harmony.  Lost in the semis to Poth.  Harmony has had good athletes over the years and has well over a .500 winning percentage before Jenkins got there.  So please don’t act like or think you know that he had to turn a downtrodden program around in his 2 years there.  They had a loaded senior class this year, that was the catalyst for their long run last year.

You must never have watched this guy call offense.  Even at WB he had a tight end on the field majority of the time and then at LCM played w/ 2 tight ends a lot and was run heavy.  Everyone thinks the spread is Air Raid.  In reality the base of it is spread triple option. Breaux has shown his offense is adaptable year to year based on his personnel.

Yes.  But Vidor’s history of hiring coaches may have been the problem.  Just say!  

At this point I think you're trolling or never played competitive sports at any level of real competition.... 

My brother is Christ - there's no coach on planet Earth that can take Vidor from any era and beat Northshore. Do you have a Bachelor's degree? If you do, go try to coach ball at any school for just a few weeks and you will realize how much goes into it.
