My prediction for HD: HD, DEWEYVILLE, WEST SABINE,SAN AUGUSTINE, SHELBYVILLE They could go other direction to Normangee, but that looks even further.

Will there be a place on the sight to post them? What are your opinions on the all-district teams? How many should be 1st team?, 2nd? etc.? I know a 6a district with seven teams (ours), where offense has 25 1st teamers and 21 2nd teamers, while defense has 26 1st teamers and 18 2nd teamers! Seems watered down to me. I would like to see it go back to 11 and 11.

I have not read all pages so this may have already come up. They have a new rule, which I hate, that protects a defenseless player. We had it called last year because we blocked the safety on a kickoff. He was just jogging and not paying attention. Definitely should have been flagged. Now if he had been carrying out a fake, that would be a different story.

they still have not confirmed suicide. Still waiting on gsr results. Since super arrived: ad left, asst. principal, and jr high principal. Shredding truck shows up day after order not to destroy. Video surveillance broken. 4 days to give a statement to police. If you read the asst pricipals resignation, he makes several points that I think could definitely win a civil suit if it was sought.

either 3 or 4 of the members are up for re-election THIS year.

it may not be 40,000 pay cut, but I would bet it is at least 20,000. But if money mattered to teachers and coaches, they probably would not be teachers and coaches.

They must have a tremendous athletic budget!

This is not even a law!!!!!!! The senate passed it to the House, but the House rejected it. 2 new "Tebow" bills have been introduced this year, but the HS parents are fighting it due to the standardized test requirement and having to file a report each 6 weeks saying that they are passing.

The senate passed it, but the home-school parents are fighting it. They added to the original plan that the home-school student had to pass a standardized test to prove their grade level.

Come on Thorndale!! Big Bobby Sugg is an assistant at Thorndale.

at current numbers, 1750 would be right at the cutoff (129 d2, 124 d1) Of course some schools would try to opt up to stay with other schools in the ISD.

You are right about that grad. I was thinking like a reasonable person would about travel. Then I realized we were talking the UIL. They don't have a problem with 150 - 200 mile road trips for district games!

Here is how it is watered down. Districts will only have 5 or 6 in each district. 1 - 9 could get you in the playoffs. That is watering it down.

That is not even close to being correct. Nederland is in the top 3 of teacher salaries in the area. The coaching stipends are pretty comparable.

I don't recall a super lying in the paper and on live radio.

No problem.

By the way, he always let his coaches coach and only offered help when needed.

Reliable source? Name em. I worked for this man and would gladly do so again. He may use a cuss word mow and then( who doesn't) but every kid we had would have run through a wall for him. As far as disrespectful comments or actions towards parents, i never saw that and would not believe it without seeing it with my own eyes. BIG MISTAKE jasper isd! Welcome back to the .500 club.

I worked with Darrell and never knew him to ever neglect a sport. I'm betting the next AD will come from the Garland area! Any takers?

UFB

Same day Super was on radio saying nothing had changed!!!

On KJAS that the board president just called the radio station and said that March 20, is Darrell's last day in his current position.

I didn't know they served "crawfish" up in Garland.

Just to put numbers to it: Coach Barbay - 2012 - 2016: 43 - 19 never fewer than 12 games in a season. 2007 - 2011 Jasper: 27 - 27 12 games one time, missed playoffs twice.

New superintendent in November from a large district with several high schools, 3 months later you get rid of a successful AD/HD coach? I don't know any details, but something seems off. I did some research and saw the Supe was not hired unanimously.
