Who do you suggest they play instead? Keep in mind these other teams you want them to play may already have games those days and can’t just drop their game because you want these coaches to play a tougher schedule. Or maybe they should load the bus up and go to Houston every Tuesday and Friday. Both of those coaches play over 30 games a season and we single 3 of those games out to say they aren’t being properly prepared for a state champion. I know math is hard for some people but that’s only 10 percent of the schedule. I think that using 10 percent of your games to build some confidence for your team and get some live minutes for your bench is just as important as playing close games. I want to tell myself you’re just a typical delusional setx sports fan, but since you took shots at both English and Smith in the same post I’m assuming you had some kids that didn’t get as much playing time as you would have liked at Nederland.

Congrats to Coach Wallace and his team

PNG head coach and SP head coach are brothers, which is why they’ve played each other the last two years.

It actually is true. PNG football boys are allowed to play when it doesn’t interfere with football games or practice. Even when they do get them it’s after a football practice on Tuesday or after a late Friday night game on Saturday. PNG missing huge parts of their team right now. With that being said, Huffman looked real good.

You must not understand how much more help a head football coach gets than any other sport at the school. I understand that it’s more work to be the head football coach than it is for other sports, but they also typically get much more help (from all freshman/Jv/ and even middle school coaches along with varsity assistants). And I definitely believe that you could get a quality head coach by choosing one of the many qualified assistants that would love to run their own program and be able to put that on their resume (even if you don’t get AD pay). Of course they would leave for the next available AD position, but those don’t open up too often or they would have most likely been an AD. I just don’t see why you can’t be good, or your expected to be bad if your football coach isn’t the AD is all I’m saying. sure it helps, but y’all are acting like it’s an excuse when baseball and basketball coaches do this every season (with their assistant coaches that the football AD hired to help him not basketball and baseball and for much less money) and they make it work without a problem and nobody feels bad for the kids in those programs. So by your logic if you want your softball team to be good the softball coach has to be the AD? I don’t know. I probably shouldn’t have even said anything because this clearly isn’t going anywhere, but i can’t sleep at night. I just thought it was weird to see people say they feel sorry for the kids because the basketball coach (Who is pretty good at that job) was the AD and not the football coach when I don’t see that as a valid excuse to be bad. if WH made the football coach (Same guy that’s there now) the AD reassigned the basketball coach to just coach basketball on Monday would you feel less sorry for the kids and expect them to be better?

Why would that be so hard? The other head coaches at the school work hard without getting AD pay. I don’t think high school coaches go into coaching for the money.

I don’t see how it’s any different if a kid specializes in baseball or football, which is the typical case here since most ADs are football coaches. Which is why i think AD should be purely an administrative position. There’s obvious bias if they also are the head coach of a sport. Especially since we are talking about WH and I don’t think football is bringing in more money than basketball at that school and that was most likely the case before the basketball coach was the AD.

I still don’t understand why the AD needs to be the football coach and the only answer I got was “football is king” Why is it different? You bringing up specializing just implies that AD’s get gets to specialize in their sport which is typically football, and basketball and baseball coaches deal with that every year and nobody feels bad for them?

Basketball and baseball coaches use that same recipe every season without issue. If they can make it work without being the AD, why can’t the football coach?

I was told number 2 had 45. That kid can straight up hoop. He will light it up next year.

21-5A is home of the 2018 state champs...

I really just meant a silsbee-hj game and a Nederland-memorial game at the same site.

Honestly not enough seats for those four programs in one gym.

PNG in the playoffs for the 4th time in school history? Pretty impressive first year from coach Smith in a tough district.

Congrats to HF players and the new head coach on a very impressive road win. Imagine if somebody had told you last year that this would happen... like him or not, new coach has already made huge jumps with that program.
