Hey Dove, just curious why nobody wants to stay at HF? Is it the pay, politics, or what? How can you ask the kids in that program to be committed when the coach isn't even committed? One and done? Wow, no wonder BH wanted him gone.

The only reason I can think of as to why Price put in for the HC/AD job at Galveston Ball is because it is a much larger district and is bound to pay a lot more money than HF does. No offense to HF. JMO. I am a little suprised that Toby Foreman did not put in for it. I guess it is because he was a finalist for the WOS job which I am sure he wanted.

Probably more of a fact that Coach Foreman realized that Ball would not hire a 3A assistant for a 4A HC/AD job.  Coach Price doesn't have such an obstacle as he headed a 4A program for 4 years before coming to HF.

I am quite sure that Coach Price was looking for an increase in pay, in addition to the fact that he may be finding the situation in H-F is pretty similar to what he left in Barbers Hill.

Toby Foreman seems to be mentioned everywhere. Sure sounds lime he needs go find a home. Is he peddling his name everywhere?  What is the buzz?

Actually, this is the 2nd year that Coach Foreman has been active in applying for head coaching jobs.  He did some applying last year.

It is nothing really sinister.  It is plainly this...Coach Foreman is ready to be a head coach and his credentials to become head coach are to the point where one school district made him a finalist for its HC/AD position.  Would he like for that position to have been at WO-S, I'm pretty sure he would have.  However, the hiring at WO-S which was confirmed this week means that head coaching opportunity there will not be open for another 5 years, maybe longer.  As he realizes that and still desires to be a head coach, he knows that, for the near future, anyway, he will have to seek that head coaching position elsewhere.

Good job answering someone that doesn't have a clue, Grad.  Here's a  :-* for you.

Just my opinion-- But it is going to be real tough for a young asst. who has never been a Head Coach to get a 3a or 4a Head coaching job no matter how good of a coach he is. Most guys have to start at a lower level. Being a Head Coach and AD requires a whole lot more than just knowing football and most schools want an experienced guy.. But Coach Foreman will get his chance and be a real good one.

      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.
