should they be allowed to play UIL  sports in the district they live in?  [Hidden Content]

Nash, would it do any good if we talked to him?

Football is the main sport. Talent level in basketball has been down. Think they had a big that was pretty good this year.  Alexander was a good coach but he didn't have a lot to work with. Not a lot of community support. At least thats the way it was the few times that Ive been there. Where did Nobels go?

District should be open next year. Hudson is the most disiplined team in district. Well coached and they dont have fb there. Peterson gets the most out of what he has.

[quote name="basketballcoach22" post="1391388" timestamp="1365107834"] Thanks for the information.... and advice on recruiting. LOL.  (I'll leave that one ALONE.) There are many quality coaches who can do a good job, IF the kids and community support it, work at it, and commit to it over time.  However, there are some schools that just can't be successful based upon either their leadership in athletics, talent pool of the community versus their district, or work ethic of the athletes.  Those things are hard to change.  Some schools sell out to be great at football, at the expense of other sports.  Not saying that is wrong....just not where I want to coach basketball.  If a coach is a solid coach, has hard working kids with decent talent, and has full support in leadership and community, I say they will always be competitive.  But you have to have those things.  I can improve kids' skills.  I can improve their motivation.  I can give them solid teaching.  I can get them believing.....  but they have to be decent, hard working kids.  Just wondering about this community..... [/quote]Good kids and good community. Gym is mostly full at games. Strongest freshmen and sophomore class that's been in years.....had the two best players in the district last year and one was district MVP. The AD job will be attached to the basketball coach next year. Good opportunity for someone.

[/quote]Nash, we have adopted that program back into existance. We need a little tutoring though.

[quote name="basketballcoach22" post="1391291" timestamp="1365085270"] Does Huntington have athletes to be successful?  Can they be developed into athletes to be successful, if they don't already have them?  Can someone come in and put in the work over time and turn the basketball program around? [/quote]Yes, yes and yes. But if you have to ask iF it can be done your probally not the one for the job. Your supposed to KNOW you can. Lol.
