Anyone who has worked in BISD would beg to differ. United gets whatever they want when it comes to athletics. Years ago WB had donors waiting to turf baseball field with private funds and the school said they could but if they did, the school would have to pay for United to get turf because they want everything the same. In reality United is treated better than WB when it comes to athletics. AD is a good dude, but a basketball dude. BTW maybe it's not the coaches that are on board there, maybe the talent pool in Beaumont has gone down due to athletes leaving and going to Silsbee, HJ, HF, and PA because of the crap show that is BISD. Having worked there and I loved my time and the kids that were there, I can tell admin is not given the tools for success from the top. Another note is look how many former coaches and BISD players that are coaching at the schools I mentioned earlier and see how many kids from Beaumont have left.

Starting pay at LIV is around 60k just for teaching. As the 59 corridor continues to grow (Splendora/Cleveland for example) assistant may not have to move very far just have to drive a little further. LIV hs is amazing newer campus and bout to build a new stadium. Year after year they have some of best looking kids in the district. If they don’t mess this up, could be a goldmine

Coaches agree before season on officials…and how is it not a neutral crew when the towns are 10 miles apart? LCM boys come off river bottom to officiate?

He played in every game last year almost splitting carries and same as this year..kid has some wheels for sure

Current OC has also been with Peevey from the jump except one year where he was a play calling coordinator. Also, maybe Ed Dyer didn't want that job because he's already retired once....

When you said "they don't do much to develop their kids outside of 7 on 7", from my information that I've got from current/former players, the OC/QB does a multi month Quarterback school that he consulted w/ Todd Dodge on where the QBs start in a classroom and learn the whole offense as well as use LCM indoor to work mechanics and throwing. Sounds like trying to develop something there....

Former Lum OC at BC

But did he have it when he was first hired to be AD/HFC at OF or did he obtain after he got the job?

You must never have watched this guy call offense. Even at WB he had a tight end on the field majority of the time and then at LCM played w/ 2 tight ends a lot and was run heavy. Everyone thinks the spread is Air Raid. In reality the base of it is spread triple option. Breaux has shown his offense is adaptable year to year based on his personnel.

Or maybe this guy wasn't well known and Breaux has shown success locally and people know more about him than they got from a couple interviews.

Doesn't Breaux have state game experience?

If its the guy Im thinkin of, believe he spent time at Mcneese & Henderson. Guy knows his stuff.

Do you know who the finalist are? If not how can you say they haven't had success and been to state before?

This one got quiet

Always interested in how people define the "spread". If you look at modern "spread offenses" it's just a "spread version of triple option.

No doubt. Should've just got this done 2 years ago and avoided snowcones.

Trying to get away from the Pirates losing more to the Bears already huh?

I agree with that. Goals are different than expectations. Good point.

I remember people saying PNG had a ceiling and wouldn't be able to beat teams like FBM but here they are in Dallas again. Not saying OF is PNG, just saying it's all about the standard thats instilled in the team and community.

Let’s stop the “Orangefield don’t have those type of kids” when every year we watch state championship games and some teams look like Orangefield. Orangefield has tough, decently athletic kids most years and should be disciplined. Also maybe you hire a guy that is great hire, doesn’t want to coach at a big school, and wants to raise his family in a great community. Even it means not getting paid as much.

BC did not opt up.

When will list of applicants come out for this or has it not been enough days?

Oh athlete with a curveball no one has talked about. BC guy. Never really retired if you watched Vidor this year. Slot T returns to BC?

Is BC a better job than OF?...

Idk them concrete bleachers been man makers and developing speed for about 40 years now. May not wanna get rid of em.
