What happened to my reply, I did not mention anyone's name. I was posing a question to see if what I heard about the HF program not being able to cut anyone was true. I do not see the harm in that. I must have hit a nerve with someone.????? That is what this thread is about.

The way this thread is going we sure don't want to delete anyone's post. Me and Coop post enough on this board, it's nice to see someone else post on the baseball portion.

Post it again.  The gremlins must have removed it.

I was asking about HF BB,I heard that the AD was not going to let the BB coach cut anyone. If he is going to be judged on wins and loses this is a load of crap. This is high school BB not LL. The next thing that is coming is unhappy parents about playing time. when you have to carry 15-18 players on a team. I just wanted to hear from someone from HF and see what others thought about not being able to cut players. That is all I was asking, touched a nerve somewhere

Just because you carry them doesn't mean you have to play them.  There are only 9 positions.

15-18 IMO is not to many to carry. I'm sure some will cut themselves after a cpl of weeks into practice, probablly sooner. The BB coach @ HF knows what it takes to get where the dedicated players want to go and will not stop short of having them condititioned and ready. I'm sure HF will once again surprise more than a few again this yr. You'll never get politics or brown nosing out of HS sports.

HF doesn't have enough players to make the usual 3 teams so they have to split up the rest between 2 teams.  There will be a lot of bench warming going on out there.  They need to do something to raise the interest in the baseball program.  Last year I believe they only had 2 Freshman playing.  What happened to all of the little leaguers?  They are pulled between all of the sports and forced to choose their favorites.  This is tough in a 3A school there aren't enough kids to spread around.

    • Funny how “MAGA” is considered a bad thing…. The MAGA crowd….etc…. Whoever doesn’t want to make America Great should leave. 
    • That's an interesting take, but considering that an incumbent enjoys a HUGE advantage historically, I think Covey came pretty close to an upset. I don't care one way or the other - the biggest reason being that I live in Hardin County. But I have to think the Trump endorsement got Covey that close in the first place. His only recognition was on a very local level, virtually unheard of before the Trump endorsement. Otherwise, he probably would've lost by thousands of votes instead of a few hundred. Just my observation.
    • I think the interesting point is this… Trump backed candidates do better when Trump is on the ballot. Back in March Covey was up by 3%, and that skirt from Jasper pulled about 10%… and most people believed that her voters would go directly to Covey. Conventional wisdom was that Covey would be up by 10-12 points if all things went according to the pattern from March. That just didn’t happen. Typically turnout is lower in runoffs than in the primaries, and my guess is that Phelan had fewer votes this time around than last, but covey had WAY fewer votes. A friend of mine has been watching a similar runoff in central texas, and the results were similar. The MAGA guy just didn’t turn out the votes this May.    My opinion is that a large portion of the support these Trump guys are just that…. Trump supporters. They’ll vote down ticket according to MAGA directives when Trump is on the ballot, but when they can’t vote Trump, they just don’t show up at all.

    • Then you should have known lots of people said the exact same thing when the alcoholic Democrat Ann Richards was elected way way back in the day. Texas has become redder and redder ever since. People, especially blacks, are waking up and realizing the Marxist Democrats are destroying them. Feel free to hold your breath waiting on your dream to happen though. That would be fun to watch, LOL.
