I knew this we going to be the response. Fairfield was a pretty good 4 seed. But, regardless, winning a District Championship in your 1st year in a completely different offensive system is pretty impressive. Many fail to realize that Orangefield accomplished a TON in only 6 months of learning and implementing a totally different offensive philosophy. It can be done. And, just because you are in shotgun does NOT mean you can't play SMASH mouth football.

Never will be a fan of running from competition. But, back to Livingston...... They have good groups coming. And, they can compete with the right leadership. That leadership does NOT have to include the slot-t. Orangefield proved this year that with good coaching a team can run ANY offense and be successful. Culture is MUCH more important than scheme in Livingston.

No reason to hate. Lots of good people and lots of things to like about Livingston. Any names surfaced???

No argument from me. Set the standard, hold them to the standard. Coach fundamentals and instill discipline. Show up and get better everyday. Always remember, the little things really are the big things.

You are 100% spot on. Now, there is nothing wrong with high fiving or low fiving kids coming off the field, having enthusiasm and throwing the occasional forward pass..... As long as you do all the things you mentioned. Holding kids and coaches accountable and working hard are definitely prerequisites to success. However, it is allowed to have fun while you are doing it.

I have all the respect in the world for the coach you are referring to. And, the "Slot T" is what it is. I'm not going to argue the positives and the negatives of the Slot. Edit: That argument would go on forever, and I'm not changing the mind of a Slot lover.......

Were you in Livingston at that time? If you were, then you know the success was more about the PLAYERS and the MENTALITY than it was about the offensive system. But, you keep doing you.

Amen Coach has to understand the kids and the community. Has to be able to establish a culture first and get the kids necessary to be successful out and playing.

Well aware of the history of Livingston. Livingston had a D1 athlete at QB/S and a future NFL running back as well as a couple other small school college players on those teams. And, the best year that never was in Livingston was a year they were VERY multiple, incorporating a number of SPREAD concepts. That team was geared up for a DEEP run until the RB got injured and the TEAM didn't adjust well.

I do know who they SHOULD hire though......

None They are using a search firm.

I really hate when people say this. Athletes in Livingston are already NOT playing because they never throw the damn ball. Need someone that can relate to the kids, bring some enthusiasm, knows the community and has an understanding of what the LIV is all about. Also, they need someone with a MODERN offense and philosophy.

You are correct Sir.

Woodville better win........

Therefore, you are NOT a candidate for the Cleveland job.

Defensive Coordinator is a DUDE!!

Clientele is completely different.

Kinda what I thought as well.

Can Crosby score enough points to win???

Problems in Cleveland are probably NOT fixable simply by getting a new football coach......

Nope, Spanish only is sufficient.....

Cleveland is Open......

Fairfield vs Crockett has not been played. Kickoff at noon today.

Fairfield is not in the playoffs yet. With Teague winning, now the winner of the Fairfield vs Crockett game is the 4th seed. Orangefield will play the winner of this game in Splendora Friday at 7.
