you guys are excited about potentially hiring a basketball coach as your head football coach??  You should be appauled that they would even think about this.  Henry will have you running the dang oopty oop right out of the box.  He will be rooting NOT to make the playoffs so bball gets an early start.  If you guys make this hire it will be a bad day to be an oiler.

;D ;D  If I could put an audio of me laughing at your dumb butt, I would.  I don't know a lot about him, but he was/is a coordinator for the Bobcats.  Grass isn't always greener on the other side, but change is sometimes a good thing.  Maybe a new way of thinking could be very productive.  Only time will tell, first we have to see who gets the job.

Coach Henry is a friend of mine and the Offensive Coordinator of my Bobcats. Coach Henry is an awesome Coach and has done a great job in H-D. But at the same time Coach Henry has seen all the home town politics Coach Slack has had to deal with. He might not want the WH job. Who knows !! Most people would love to be their Alma Maters Coach.

Most of his experience has been in Bball. Doesn't mean he couldn't take head football. One thing small schools look for is someone with a vested interest in hopes that they will stay around longer than someone who has no ties. Do not know if it is best because of the politics. Henry is known and well liked there for the most part I believe and I think his wife still works in WH. Sounds somewhat logical except for the lack of head football experience. Getting a good person with good leadership abilities to help young men be productive in life still counts for something as well. From what I have heard and know, Henry can probably do that.


Will be interesting.

    • Will probably be released by the Democrats come September.  Sound familiar?
    • 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.
