Sho is quiet

What say you, JayBilas?

Now that would be something to see.

I got a name for you who loves Tarkington and wants to be there for the long run.....Stan Howard.

Whoa. Good luck to him, but this seems like an uphill battle.

Either way, it's pretty wild that you are here commenting on the job you were a finalist for, acting like you were not one of the finalists and purporting to have sources on the inside who were informing you of the process. "Sources say the finalists were on campus today for interviews...."....... It's a bad look brother.

This is the absolute definition of hating. It's interesting to me, there once was a poster who frequented the basketball board by the name of DickieV. DickieV was a well known basketball coach from the SETX area who was quite vocal about his opinions on many things, but announced his identity and intention to leave the board after being hired as an assistant at a West Texas college. DickieV hasn't really been heard from since, except for the one time he popped in to criticize Dave Bliss receiving another job in college basketball after the Baylor debacle. DickieV argued that others deserved that second change rather than Bliss, and even pointed out that DickieV had been chosen as coach of the year over Bliss when they both coached in TCAL. After those comments, he vanished again. Fast forward to now. JayBilas arrives on the board, seemingly out of the blue, with a major interest in the HF coaching position. JayBilas' sentence structure and overall disposition of his posts is almost identical to DickieV. JayBilas even displays his passion toward subject matter that DickieV was passionate about. After reading the list of finalists for the HF job that was posted here, my interest is piqued regarding these two contributors. Who knows, what's really going on. I'd hate to think that one of the other finalists for the job was on a public message board disparaging the finalist that was awarded the position, especially since all of the criticism is an assumption and has been proven wrong. That would be a tragedy.

Looks like the community didn't resonate with the plan to jump out of UIL athletics and their inability to finish the season last year. It will be hard to get anyone decent in there, but maybe a young up and comer who isn't afraid of a challenge can get that ball rolling again.

You know what, you are right. Seriously. Everyone deserves second and sometimes third chances to make things right. I know for dang sure I have gotten them in the past. Thanks for the correction.

Oh yeah. Yates has had great success in the past and has always kept himself out of trouble. HF should be proud to have his name on the list.

LOLed at that......

Tod Stark. No question.

Please tell everyone my name.

It's also a shame that parents these days think a kid getting a good a** chewing or being told "you aren't doing that right, go to the back of the line" is abuse.

Oh yeah. Make sure you shower them with encouragement Coach Allen. If you hurt their feelings by pushing them to be better, they will quit, and based on this last post, it will be your fault. I sure hope those kids from Kirbyville get hired by encouraging employers that do not expect them to perform or get gone because they will be in for a rude awakening. Sounds like you guys need to take a day trip to WOS and see how the winningest program in our area does business. I promise you, there won't be a bunch of coddling going on over there and those kids are some of the most supported in the area by their staff. Correcting and holding kids to a standard isn't a detriment to their development and until you guys figure that out, you'll continue to languish in mediocrity or worse.

Too bad. He was the guy. Probably pulled out after the scandal hit the news because little Johnny was being picked on by mean coaches.

Doesn't seem to be a whole lot of conversation generated in Kirbyville from this hire. I think people were hoping to get an assistant from Jasper, but I do not think this is the one they were hoping for.

What's the ticket situation?

There is no doubt about this.

I actually wish Silsbee well and actively root for them, as I do any team from SETX making a run. The reality is, there are many Silsbee posters who cannot admit when they just got beat (football or basketball) and make excuses. Sorry for painting with a broad brush, but much like HD55 causes a stigma for other HD posters, those posters cause a stigma for all Silsbee posters.

Right, but as many jobs as were/are open this year, I wonder why Buna is the one? I am assuming it's because Buna is who hired him, but I am curious if there is another driver.

You have to remember, when talking to these folks, Silsbee never loses. They only get beat by dirty play and crooked refs.

Seriously though, what is the draw to get Kinne to Buna?

Ok.

Does he have any more sons?! lol
