sleepy Posted July 13, 2011 Report Share Posted July 13, 2011 Beaumont Enterprise shows Williams is an applicant for Boys job at PAM and shows Brooks is applicant for Girls head job at PAM? Where will Silsbee go if this happens? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevenash Posted July 13, 2011 Report Share Posted July 13, 2011 Badsanta will become both the Boys and Girls coach and have them in Austin next March, and, at the same time, will shoot 64 at the Hills of Lakeway Golf Course. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[b]Where will Silsbee go if this happens[/b]?[/quote]That would be a very big blow to the program. This is a tough situation for Ira. He could be named the girls coach at the same time as Travis being named the boys coach at PAM. Would he say no in order to be in position to take the Silsbee boys job? Tough deal. As for Travis, Silsbee would miss him dearly, but you cannot expect him to not try and get jobs of that magnitude. I want Travis to stay, but I also want Travis to be happy and do what's best for him. The Silsbee basketball job can be a "end all, be all" job for some, but not for others. I always knew that Travis wants to coach at bigger schools and knew that some day he would move on. I wish him and Ira all the best in whatever and wherever they go. But for selfish reasons, I want them to stay right here at Silsbee!As for where would Silsbee go, I truly believe that a multitude of very well qualified and good coaches would apply. I believe the Tiger Basketball program would just roll on! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, that doesn't mean he will get it. As for Ira and the girls job, haven't heard much on that front. I should know something tomorrow afternoon when I go up to the Silsbee gym for the first day of the tourney. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bobbymcgee Posted July 13, 2011 Report Share Posted July 13, 2011 LeBlanc would be a better choice than Brooks for the girls job. She has played college basketball at LSU and is from Port Arthur.

If you understand the game and get along well with students, it shouldnt matter if the team is male or female.

What I am suggesting to you is that Mr. Brooks is a very good coach and can handle a boys or girls job. I have personal knowledge of a situation where a new coach (without prior head coaching experience) took a program from 2-26 to two consecutive district championships and a regional appearance in his first two years. One year after that, the team played in the state final. The school had an outstanding football reputation and was laughed at in basketball. Yeah, at Hamshire-Fannett.
