In San Augustine's 3 losses at full strength, they have given up 72, 78 and 81 pts.  That seems to be your best bet to beat San Augustine is to outgun them.  That doesn't bode we'll for teams with a lack of depth.  Because when your guys start getting a step slower, SA is running in fresh legs.  I heard from someone at the game that Broaddus did a good job against West Sabine on the boards, and that is something else that could hurt the Tigers.  San Augustine rebounds the ball very well, especially on the offensive end.  And for a team that thrives in their pressure defense, giving them extra opportunities to score and set it up doesn't bode we'll either. 

San Augustine has seen and beat just about every look so far this season.  Teams had tried to run with them and failed.  Teams have tried to slow them down and failed.  I don't mean this as a negative against any team, but in all reality San Augustine's play, and not anyone else's is going to determine the outcome of the game.

Absolutely.  Don't remember his #, but one kid from Big Sandy scored like 30 points, mainly from the 3 pt line.  I was impressed with him.  They scored the most points SA has given up all year.  I thought San Augustine had a chance to win, but Big Sandy hit the big shots and SA didn't. Plain and simple.  Scoring 78 would've been enough for SA any other game but it wasn't that night.  That's outgunning to me.

    • 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.
