I have no problem with an outside hire. Hopefully a few good ones put in with the understanding of getting a pay raise that is approved by the BOM's. I told someone last night that I don't want a first time head coach UNLESS they come from a winning program like North Shore, The Woodlands, Atascosita, Katy, Cy-Fair, Manvel, Carthage, etc. Otherwise give me someone that has at least been a head coach before and somewhat successful. Trust me, I want the best kids on the field regardless if they come from Central or Ozen.

The power of money...

Hey I'm expecting the L-Train to get rolling now that they are dropping down to 4A. Show everyone how much fun it is going from one of the smallest in district to being one of the biggest in the district. The only time I'll say it's ok for you all to be a bully...

One can only imagine...

Hell we don't even know who our head coach is going to be, the name of the school or the mascot but is it EVER too early to start talking smack?

Well I guess we will get at least 1 win before going into district play

OneChance, since the standings at the top of this forum are not up to date, do you have up to date standings of district play?

Well I guess in a little over 48 hours we will start to find out...

Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't Morris Moore use to be located in Lumberton?

Also found out tonight that the AD is submitting or asking for a pay raise for the head football coach. The deadline for applicants is next Friday the 9th and "they" want an outside hire for head football coach.

I never said that's all that they would pay but I said what they currently are paying. That's what we've been for many years now if the coach isn't from here...

So apparently the BOM's and Shannon Allen have already told the kids that "Hurricanes" (which was one of the favorites amongst students) as a mascot is out. It was said that It could be a painful reminder for some in the community. They might as well go ahead and name the school, pick the mascot, decide the colors and everything because that's what they really want to do...

That's how I understand it to.

Nope... [Hidden Content]

One of the truest statements ever. Not for all but usually they have a problem following orders or instructions or simply lazy and don't want to put in the work that it takes to commit to any sport...

Wish you and your son the best in your new district, just be glad it doesn't include the BISD schools anymore...

...and what the coaches run in middle school usually isn't the same as what the high schools run. Plus kids are being moved around in different positions a lot their freshman year to see where they should play.

Central's varsity had 50. 31 Seniors, 18 Juniors and 1 Sophomore. Was it anything like the varsity Jaguars beat the Lions 55-7 or the JV Jaguars beat the Lions 44-6?

And I'm glad they are opening up the head principal and football coach positions. I think those are the 2 most important positions in helping make things work when it comes to the merger. I really feel if nothing else, these 2 positions should be filled by outside applicants just to insure no favoritism amongst staff and students. The principal is will be over the entire student body and the head football coach will be over 100 plus boys. These 2 positions can have the greatest influence on the student body, school spirit and the kids buying in. And with football being at the beginning of the school year, along with volleyball, it is imperative to me, that they get the right man for the football job and get off to a good start for school spirit and the kids totally buying in. Basketball, baseball, softball, volleyball, track, etc. I think can be filled by in-house candidates and be successful and smooth. But if it comes down to Taylor vs Nelson, I have to go Nelson. I know the Ozen faithful are going to say but Nelson has been in trouble with UIL. Taylor is 3-15 in 2 years. Nelson is 21-31 in 5 years, 4 years in which he was at Ozen and went 16-28, twice to the playoffs in which one was a 3rd appearance and he was 5-3 this past year at Central. But lets see who puts in for $86,000...

Well I'm part of one of the committees so I will see how this goes according to what this article says...

I thought I posted that somewhere last week but I guess I didn't.

And if the right one puts in for Ozen-Central, I have no problem with it happening again...

I wouldn't be surprised if they played each other...

Silsbee shouldn't be too bad bro...
