Whether they need a new one or not that's your opinion, but I have seen HD teams under Slack that could have made playoffs in 22-3A, that were done in the first round in 1A

I have not gotten any response to my request for the list of applicants (and they don't have to for 10 business days) and any folks close to the situation that I have discussed the matter with simply say that everything is very hush hush.

The only thing that is really for certain is that the new coach will be named at the next board meeting

ok, here is the deal. 

There is a difference of opinion between Bob Parker and the majority of the school board.  Parker wants to promote from within to save the salary and relieve some financial strain the district is feeling right now due to the times.  The majority of the school board wants to go ahead and hire Joe Slack away from Hull Daisetta.  That is the hold up.  There are a few candidates that are already there that would be good fits for the job, but the board sees this route as Parker not putting enough emphasis on the football program. The town just recently poured over a million dollars into with the new field and stadium renovation, hence the want to hire a bonafide football coach and not just a place holder to save bucks. 

Interesting to see who will win out.

This is not correct.  I don't know where your getting your info but there is no push for any certain applicant and there is no hold up. The job was posted and since has closed.  The coaches will be interviewed and then offered the job. Their was no dilemma on hiring from within

My source may be bad, and if this is incorrect, I apologize.  My source is very close to the situation and has been dead on in the past.  If the news is correct that Hardin has the chance to land Taylor or Barrier, I hope my source is wrong!  Those two guys would be amazing! I tend to lean Barrier because of success he has already had in the area, but Taylor is a great coach also.  This might get interesting.

It may not be about winning, but when it comes to keeping/getting the job that's what it is about. Small things aside from winning may cause people to want a coach fired but they will blame it on a loss, and if you are a winning coach those small complaints won't even surface so it is in fact about winning.

    • Funny how “MAGA” is considered a bad thing…. The MAGA crowd….etc…. Whoever doesn’t want to make America Great should leave. 
    • That's an interesting take, but considering that an incumbent enjoys a HUGE advantage historically, I think Covey came pretty close to an upset. I don't care one way or the other - the biggest reason being that I live in Hardin County. But I have to think the Trump endorsement got Covey that close in the first place. His only recognition was on a very local level, virtually unheard of before the Trump endorsement. Otherwise, he probably would've lost by thousands of votes instead of a few hundred. Just my observation.
    • I think the interesting point is this… Trump backed candidates do better when Trump is on the ballot. Back in March Covey was up by 3%, and that skirt from Jasper pulled about 10%… and most people believed that her voters would go directly to Covey. Conventional wisdom was that Covey would be up by 10-12 points if all things went according to the pattern from March. That just didn’t happen. Typically turnout is lower in runoffs than in the primaries, and my guess is that Phelan had fewer votes this time around than last, but covey had WAY fewer votes. A friend of mine has been watching a similar runoff in central texas, and the results were similar. The MAGA guy just didn’t turn out the votes this May.    My opinion is that a large portion of the support these Trump guys are just that…. Trump supporters. They’ll vote down ticket according to MAGA directives when Trump is on the ballot, but when they can’t vote Trump, they just don’t show up at all.

    • Then you should have known lots of people said the exact same thing when the alcoholic Democrat Ann Richards was elected way way back in the day. Texas has become redder and redder ever since. People, especially blacks, are waking up and realizing the Marxist Democrats are destroying them. Feel free to hold your breath waiting on your dream to happen though. That would be fun to watch, LOL.
