His best work was during his first stint as a head coach at Brazos. Caney Creek was Caney Creek and the Hardin program was beginning to show signs of life in the lower levels while he was there. You'd have to go back to before his HC records to really see the impact he had. He was at Jasper for quite a few years prior to taking the Brazos job, had stints at Cleveland, Hull-Daisetta and a few others sprinkled in over the years.

I thought it was said that Barrow didn't have an OC last year.

This. The son is a bonus. Coach Barrier is one of the brightest offensive minds in the area and he is just now getting his due. Trust and believe, he isn't getting jobs just because his son is in tow. His merits stand on their own.

Well that narrows it down to two cities, Liberty and Daisetta. Can't imagine they'd be able to lure Lackey out of Liberty so that only leaves one man standing.

I was curious if any of those guys were players on the team. Horrible situation for two proud communities.

Interesting first post. Hard to believe that Mann would want to leave his job in his hometown and move all the way across the state, but I guess stranger things have happened.

It's a bleep show in Hardin right now.......

Anybody have any details on this or who might end up at Crosby?

This is a major mistake by Crosby. Let the tumble begin.

Two years later.....

Sounds like an excellent idea to me.

Boy that was anti-climactic. Congrats to Coach Day.

Nac has been dragging their feet on the hire, maybe he didn't know that he was leaving last week.

Reyes headed back to Nac?

Yikes.

She's an absolutely electric athlete with limitless potential, but I am curious as to how she stacks up against other top tier players in the area. I am not too plugged into girls basketball so I thought I'd see what everyone's take is on her.

Where's the leadership in the athletic department, if this is going on? Are they stepping up to the plate to handle the issue, or are they allowing it to persist?

Ah ok. I can see where that could get confusing. Hopefully all college coaches looking at him are clear on the specifics

But the article says he is involved, right?

Wut?

Man o man. The boo birds in Vidor will finally get what they want. I can't wait to see how this one will turn out.

This is old news. They've recovered quite well.

UIL has made the state championships an event, not just a game. This is the magic of it all. So many people, like myself, make it a tradition to travel up and spend the entire weekend celebrating the greatest sports event there is, TXHSFB. The coaches and fans need to realize, if you make it to state, you are going to be showcased in an arena where a lot of eyes will be on you. If you go back to centralized locations with individual games, all of that pagentry goes away. Do you think Clemson is concerned about having to travel to California to play USC in the national championship game if that is how the schedule falls? No. They probably don't like it, but they're not going to petition to have that game played in Missouri rather than at SoFi.

Please. Like any coach would choose job security at a place that continually loses (according to you), rather than win. Your clown nose is showing.

This was my tenth year attending the entire weekend, and I can say without a doubt, AT&T is the premiere location for these games. There is no argument to be made except for the one about home field advantage. Having said that, NS has won 3 of 4 from Duncanville with the disadvantage everyone is saying they have by going into AT&T for that game. The DFW teams have an advantage, but it has nothing to do with the location. It's more related to facilities, support and easy ability to move around.
