My personal experience leads me to vote for Kevin Bradford. I had a hard time catching him.
[/quote]  Kevin  Bradford  &  Troy  Hanson  were  great  running  backs  in  late  80's  &  the  year  1990  because  they  had  a  great  offense  opening  up  big  holes  for  them  to  run  thru.  They  also  ran  behind  the  greatest  offensive  guard  BH  ever  had.  Kenny  Robbins  #70.

Kevin had a twin brother Devin, both were GREAT kids and GREAT friends of mine.  I graduated with them and as you know Kevin passed away in the early 90's.  They found his body in the rice canal just north of town.  He had picked up a hitch hiker after work in Baytown to give him a ride and that was the last time anyone saw him alive.

On a lighter note, we all were pretty good "break dancers" as well.......... ;D ;D

    • 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.
