Mike Trahan - NEW Buna Head Football Coach

[DP#1FAN]

Do the Cougs have a new football coach yet?

[TXHORN_ET]

I heard a coach from vidor.

[TXHORN_ET]

Trahan was what I was told.

Don't see anything announced by the school yet. Don't schools usually put out an announcement right after the vote for these things? 

[Little Jerry]

It is official. Mike Trahan, Vidor OC is the new head football coach at Buna. 

[Right99JOH]

Buna is getting a good coach in Trahan.  Great guy!!

Is Buna a new Slot-T school? 

[VidorPirate]

Great hire for Buna.

I’d imagine so… they used to run it well

District 10
Anahuac
Buna Coldspring-Oakhurst East Chambers Hardin
Kirbyville Orangefield
What 4 make the playoffs? Will it play out as it has in most years with several teams fighting it out for that 4th spot?

East Chambers and Coldspring-Oakhurst are the two locks, I would assume.

Anahuac, Kirbyville and Orangefield would be the second wave.

Buna and Hardin would be bringing up the end, if I had to guess.

I tend to agree. It will be interesting for sure.

Coldspring, East Chambers, Anahuac, and Orangefield. Not necessarily that order but that’s my 4

Trahan getting a few years of HC experience so he can take over Vidor job when DuBose leaves. Same as DuBose did before taking over for Mathews. These Bridge City alumni have a pretty good political circle going

what makes you think Trahan is from bridge city??  I've seen you mention it before, he is from Louisiana, was a very successful OC there for several years before making the move to Vidor.

Disagree.  EC will continue to slowly decline while Anahuac continues to rise, as Barrier checks back in and makes them DC capable immediately.  The only thing EC will be good at within 3-5 years is the "other futbol".  It's starting to look like Plum Grove over there.

Kirbyville nearly lost to Hardin (overtime) last year but I dont know what they return?

Surely Ofield will be somewhere near the top.  Cold is always tough.

Hardin just does not have the athletes to compete at a high level, but I'd imagine they'll be tough under CT as long as he stays there.

Buna has a long way to go in my opinion.

Given the parameters of the job, this is a prime setup for someone like a current coordinator or experienced position coach to add "head coach" to their resume.

Seems I was correct in my assumption. Hoping this translates to Pick ‘Ems success next season 😬

Things you do not know: 

1. neither Trahan or DuBois are BC Alumni 

2. 99% of coaches coach multiple sports throughout their careers (I am sure he was filling a coaching spot that was vacant & needed at that time)
