Kael Jones is on the hill if he pitches like he did against Woodville and Kirbyville gets there hitting back on track Kirbyville could be right back in the race for the playoffs. I got Kirbyville winning 7-4.

I have a good feeling that Wensdays practice will be strictly concentrated on plate discipline ;)

Not much of a chance of KV bringing in anybody to help.  Our coaches seem to get upset when players get help away from them.  Saw this with my on eyes a while back. Of course, if struggles keep on, anything could  happen.

Well the coaches need to step up and actually "HELP" our boys....and if they got pissed cause I was trying to improve my skills...I'd have to gladly turn my jersey in... Looks like one player already done that a few weeks back. Prime example....There is other leagues out there that are willing to try to have these boys advance in to college...I dont see any advancement throught KHS unless.......well i wont go there....Good luck Cats and Lets go out there and have some Fun.....

    • Sure.  You reassign an employee and they leave voluntarily instead of being fired and being open to litigation.  The outcome is the same, but you are making my point.  The superintendent and AD and principal are all empowered to make personnel decisions.  Instead of accepting the decision made, you talk about lawyering up, no one else was reprimanded, railroad job.  I am old enough to remember when high school sports taught life lessons...accountability being chief among them.
    • I know absolutely nothing about the situation, but I do know head coaches of sports other than the AD have actual teaching assignments, and I know from my wife having worked in the sped department of multiple schools that it’s not uncommon at all for coaches to shirk those duties.  It could very well be that this was the case at BC.  Or not, I don’t know.  Just bringing this up to point out the fact that, although many coaches only want to worry about coaching, they generally have several other responsibilities at the school.  some of them neglect or ignore these duties entirely.  If he’s been written up for other issues before, it’s a dumb argument to say “he was punished for this and others were not”.  If he had a pile of write ups in his file and they did not then it makes sense that the punishments were different.  
    • He wasn’t fired, he was reassigned and people get reassigned all the time. If he was actually fired, then you would have a point, but he wasn’t fired. Based on the information presented here no way this would stand if they fired him and he lawyered up. 
    • I heard the assistant was going to get this job and assume it was referring to the old Vidor coach, Nate Smith.  I always thought he did more with less at Vidor and can't help but think he shares some responsibility in Vidor's recent success. 
    • Classic Bridge City.  Always someone else's fault, refs/umpires cheated, AD with an agenda, yada, yada, yada.  As far as I can tell it's damn near impossible to get fired at these schools so when someone does get fired, it's usually something.  Drama at Bridge City is a constant.  The guy did a good job coaching basketball and I'm sure he'll continue that somewhere else.  Time to move on.
