Hardin-Jefferson is open


Recommended Posts

Head coach Clay Davis has resigned as head basketball coach at Hardin-Jefferson. Clay will be taking an Assistant Principle position at Splendora ISD so he will be leaving the coaching profession. Clay's wife has been working for Splendora ISD the last two years, commuting back and forth. Totally understand Coach Davis move here.

This will be a very interesting hire. Don't expect a promotion. Will definitely be an outside hire. History rich program to a very good school district. Definitely will draw some interest.

Good luck Coach on your new job. Hawk Basketball and gym just won't be the same without you. 20 years at HJ. I will miss our talks and watching you coach the game.

Clay Davis record as head coach:

Tatum/Jasper/Hardin-Jefferson

14 years 

334-140 overall record

122-30 district record

9 district championships/co-championships

5 regional quarterfinals or better

Joubert would be a great fit, but won't leave Kountze.  Even though, if he left, half the kids would go with him.

And it would probably be a pay cut, so that won't work.

Knowing the district that HJ plays in, those kids would stay ineligible for transferring for athletic reasons.

Congratulations Coach Davis! I am astounded that you could leave coaching, but I wish you well. By the way, in case you have forgotten, I still owe you a steak!

Got to know Clay when he was at Jasper. He had to dismiss some good athletes for various reasons. Took what was left and won a district championship….Huntington and Jasper played each other four times in two years in the district. There was eleven overtime’s in those four games…good times.

It'll be strange walking in to the HJ gym and not seeing Clay working the sidelines. I wish him well, he'll be a tough one to follow. HJ is a great school district to teach in and the community supports their Hawks. There will be some top notch applicants for this position.

    • What the writer stated wrt crossover votes in the primary/runoff: "Covey and his supporters Paxton and Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick said Phelan only won because Democrats crossed over to vote in the Republican Primary for him. Paxton said Covey’s campaign identified “at least” 1,442 Democrats who voted early in Jefferson County in the primary runoff. Texas does not have party registration, but a voter’s primary voting history is public. The Covey campaign has not released its methodology behind its claim, but  This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up  by The Texan news website found that 9% of Republican voters in the March District 21 primary had voted in one of the previous four Democratic primaries. However, only 5% of that group had voted in all four previous Democratic primaries. What Phelan’s opponents did not mention is historically Democratic Jefferson County is undergoing a political transition towards the Republican party — the county judge switched his affiliation to the GOP in 2017 — so many residents have a mixed primary voting history. And Phelan’s allies in the House dismissed the idea that liberals swung the election. "I knocked on doors, hundreds and hundreds of doors, made calls for Dade,” Republican Rep. Jeff Leach, R-Plano, said on Mark Davis’ radio program Wednesday. “I did not speak to a single Democrat down here in HD21. Not a single one." "
