It's sad when we have grown men hating on how much money another man makes...  Let him make all that money...  You strive to make as much money as you can...

With that being said, Heck no our stadium shouldn't be named after him!  'Jaguar Stadium' will do just fine!  ;D ;D

Don't think that will happen, my friend. 

And I don't begrudge Mr. Thomas for the money he makes...if he is bold enough to ask for it and was able to convince BISD to pay it to him, more power to him! 

However, if you want to name it after someone who has meant a lot to BISD athletics, why don't you name it Arthur Louis Stadium?

I think we should call it "the stump".    Really, i hope they just call it Beaumont Stadium and leave it at that.

[/quote] ::)  Stick to beating lowly Ozen.  To be the Beaumont bowl champs, you gotta knock off Brook and Central...  And when was the last time you have beat either of us?

I have my opinions just like everyone else does. It is MY OPINION....based on where I have been and seen school districts for what they are I think he is over paid and not very good. You are right that was a shot I shouln't have taken. I have been to the Plano, North Dallas, Sugarland areas and based on facilities of schools, test scores, and yes athletic facilities...I think he is over paid and does a poor job. I also think A-Rod is over paid. With that said... if the people that be want to pay him that much than we should vote them out...and yes I have and will always vote to improve our community, and do what it is right. When he gets are schools on par with the Plano's, the Fort Bend's, and the Dallas Schools (South Lake Carroll) then I will be alright with him making that kind of money, because he is earning it. I hope does for our kids sake.

For those who think CT is doing a poor job, BISD is recognized right now.  So call it Dr. Carrol Thomas Center for Educational Assistance(since it will also contain a natatorium-----that's a cement pond for all you haters outside BISD)

    • 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.
