HEard that there is an OC from Fort Worth applying. Runs the spread similar to Haynes.

I sure that this is not what Buzzy Keith petitioned for when he pushed for the District Runner-up to get in the playoffs in 82.

Thats pretty tough I bet open gives them a run for their money. Sorry had to do it. LOL

Deer Park or Pasadena would be about midway for both teams.

Lilley made the playoffs starting 1 fresh and 2 soph 1 jr and 1 sr his first year as HC. Made the playoffs 2 out of 2 as HC. Must have not been to bad. ??? ??? ??? HD played BS close at home and did not play well at BS last year. Do not remember the score maybe 2quick does.

Who is playing PG?

CSI is probably the only person who knows where Zwolle is located. LOL

No he is not. One of the kids.

Sorry, you have got the wrong guy Hatchet is not in Anahuac. Since you are calling me out. I am the one at Anahuac. And to answer your question, yes we are building the program. BTW, I have my reasons for leaving HD you can call me and I will be happy to discuss them with you. However, I will not bring the reasons out in a public forum. They would prove to be a big black eye for HD! Coach Moore

Rhino, You still at dville?

Did Anderson play?

You can always get within three feet if you coach!

Have not been in the last 12 years. Before that, I had been to 15 straight. My dad made that our family vacation. I would like to make it as a coach since my eligibility is up.

Anahuac needs JH boys games for Thursday. Our opponents cancelled. We have the officials. PM me or email me at [email protected] Coach Moore

You are the one who came on this thread and started talking trash!

I will agree with you on one point. Perception is reality. Your opinion will not change and neither will mine. You have not been in the planning sessions and worked through the issues that occur within the schools. Looking in, you do not understand what goes on and we cannot explain. All you can make is a poor decision about people and the job they do. I challenge you to get into coaching and be an educator.

Let me see Shermdog, i'd really like to get off this, but I will give you some examples. Lets take for instance the Groveton playoff game last year, Coach Barbay's last game at HD. First off, HD took an early lead in this game, as the Bobcats began pounding their two big backs (A.Cook 230lbs and T.Patterson 215lbs.). All looked great until about the second quarter when we drove down the field gaining a 1st and goal inside the 10 yard line. Coach Barbay took both those backs off the field, and put in backups, 150lb RB backups. Two straight runs gaining nothing, and an incomplete pass and we're at 4th down. HD goes for it, with those backs still on the sidelines, incomplete pass, turnover on downs. No big deal, it was one drive. Early in the game, we've got a lead. Unfortunately Coach Barbay decided to do this on three straight possesions inside the oppenents 10 yard line. You can say, maybe those backs needed a break, but one of them was on the sidelines begging to get in the game, with no avail. Fastforward to the closing minutes of the first half, with Groveton driving down the field through the air on us. He decides to put 10 men in the box (with Groveton running 3WR's) and they burn us on a long pass. The next play the QB slips down and the clock is running. Whew, we caught a break, they can't lineup to get a play off. Ooops, that's not the case. Coach Barbay decides to call a defensive timeout with :02 seconds left until halftime with the Indians on our 35 yard line. This happened to let them get off a perfectly diagramed screen pass that they took to the house and scored with no time remaining. OK, so a little bad clock management, and not keeping your big guys in when that's working. Well the second half was alot worse. He abandoned what was working in the first half. It wasn't like Groveton adjusted to it, and we were trying to make an adjustment to them, he just did away with it. Rediculous play calling throughout the second half. We punted on a 4th and 1 on their 48 yard line, yet we went for a 4th and 9 on our own 31. Both these plays were in the 3rd quarter. Same thing with out big running backs, get in the redzone, take them out. Our stands were booing so loud I actually felt sorry for the man. It was a total collapse. Needless to say, we gave up a big a big lead, and Groveton won 45-36. This is just one game. Every big game he was not able to have his team perform. Maybe it was lack of talent, but I dont' think so. Maybe they weren't motivated, or the kids didn't have heart, but I doubt that's likely either. Horrible play calling, having kids playing out of position, or not even on the field. I don't think he understood the concept of small school ball. You have you're best 11 on the field at all times. If you've got 11 kids going both ways, so be it. I know this really doesn't do my any justice to my argument, you'd just have to be here, in the community and at the games. Against teams like Sabine Pass and High Island we looked great, but against big games, and rivals the preparation was pitiful. We'd never get over the hump and beat EC, or even come close. Heck, when we went down to 1A, Burkeville was our primary competiton and he couldn't beat them, then when they moved out it was West Hardin, and we've seen how that rivalry went in the last few years. Here's a little historical information. HD had never lost to Hardin at home in the history of the rivalry. Barbay was able to do that not only once, but twice. Also, HD has never lost to West Hardin and Hardin in the same season before he came along. He was able to do it in back to back seasons!!! Hardin and WH were improved those years, but there's no excuse for the way those teams performed. Four straight 1st round playoff losses and the last three in 1A. HD was a perenial playoff team in 2A, and he barely squeaked us into the playoffs in 1A, only to be shelacked by teams like Iola, Normangee, and Timpson. Not exaclty the calibur of teams HD used to lose in the playoffs to (Alto, Groveton, Grapeland). If I'm not mistaken he leaves with a 33-29 win/loss record. At some schools I guess that's ok, but not at Hull-Daisetta. I'll quit ranting, and I'm sure I still didnt' give any valid credentials to my argument, but I promise you, he will not be missed as far as I'm concerned.

Please answer my questions. That is all I ask.
