[quote name="badndn" post="712139" timestamp="1258651408"] So if you are looking for a fresh start, why would a guy on the current staff (that you guys feel ain't gettin it done) be on your list? [/quote] Ding Ding Ding we have a winner ;D IMHO we need to go outside WAY outside and see who's out there.

[quote name="GCMPats" post="712108" timestamp="1258649094"] OK. Lot's of discussion from the Hill folks. Now back to the topic. Let's have a short list of the coaches that could/would be the next Barber's Hill Head Coach. [/quote] We can name coaches all day, but untill they apply it's sensless to list names. I'll save my choice for when the list is made.

[quote name="gcmbigdaddy" post="712094" timestamp="1258648260"] if stewart came to the hill they would be the powerhouse in the district. great coaching makes the difference. you don't hear anyone in daytown complaining and they don't have any d1 players this year. they probably will not go as deep this year but they will always be in the hunt because of stewart and his coaches. that is not an accident. [/quote] Exactly 8)

[quote name="BH96" post="712042" timestamp="1258644754"] I can tell you what the inner circle is looking for. I have heard it before. And it has nothing to do about football. I look for Penee Hall to come back as the AD\HC of the girls Basket Ball and for BH to just hire a head football coach who ever it is. The main reason she left in the first place is because she didn't get the AD job when Price got it. Certain people have daughters coming up that are good and successful basket ball players thru the junior high and little dribblers leagues. One group even won nationals. and they want their kids to have the best opportunity and coach to take them back and win state and she has deep roots here even with certain members on the school board. Just my opinion. [/quote] Off topic ,but your Avatar brings back some memories!! That was a great catch

[quote name="Eagle82" post="712023" timestamp="1258643784"] Well, I don't have a dog in this hunt but I'm a 3rd generation Hillian and I'll tell you this.  Yes, we do have some overzealous parents and always have.  Show me a school that doesn't!  Yes, politics play a part in HS sports...show me a school that doesn't!  Has Price done a good job at the Hill...obviously, his record speaks the fact!  But hey guys, sometimes you have to force the issue or you never get any better and that's in EVERYTHING - your own life included!!!  The fact is now we go foward, hating Price or hating the school board - moot point, decision made.  BHFan is passionate about what he witnessed on the field and for him, didn't like Price's style (and I concur about the whole adjustments comments.)  BH34 thought highly of the man and that's his perogative too.  But guys and gals of the Hill that bleed Royal Blue...we move on and we support the new regime, whomever it may be!!  Guys in the GT area, thanks for your interest in the Hill, that shows you care :), and Golden Triangle, your comment is neither respected nor appreciated and was totally not called for on this board.  Everybody has an opinion but to tell somebody on here to shut up.... [/quote] Good post. We are all on the same team here guys!

[quote name="bigdaddyblue" post="711970" timestamp="1258641237"] Just like we said earlier BHFAN its the parents..At the Hill all the parents send there kids to special camps...Sending your kids to camps is not going to make him a D-1 kid..Camps are nothing but a money making scheme for the assistant coaches in college...Price was in hot water before the season even started due to parents from the 9th grade bitching about there kids should be playing on varsity..What a way to start your year off before the first snap... [/quote] Your going to have Parents like that every where, BH is no different than any other school! I don't know why people think that BH is some out of the ordinary place on earth where no talent lives and parents bitch ;D I also can't believe that everyone is so satisfied with the way BH football is and is willing to just stay as is instead of make changes to see if we can be better! Now we my be worse going forward, but if we just sit around and excepting status quo we will never know! BH can bring in a coach, there is too much BH has to offer! No matter what coach we get we still have BH blood pumping through these kids! BH does a good job (Teachers, Staff, Parents, Coaches) in making these kids believe that they can be the best!

[quote name="Stranger" post="711968" timestamp="1258641177"] Sorry BHFan, but BH did not have lots of talent in the early 2000's.  They had a bunch of guys that worked their tails off week in and week out and did what it took to win. [/quote] Sounds like talent to me ;D

If our board doesn't hire a great coach, and we get a guy in here that goes 5-5 the next three or four years, or who gets beat in the first round of the playoffs every time. I will be on here throwing it back in your face. See what I'm expecting with all the great talent we have, is a State Championship for the next three years. It wasn't exceptable for Price to go one or two rounds seven out of ten years, so the bar is set very high for the next guy. [/quote] I'm sorry before I even start but you have absolutely no idea what you are talking about. The Hill has a lot of mediocre athletes that mommy and daddy think are at least small D1 material and the honest truth is that I can think of maybe 5 since 1995 that would be D1 football players possibly. And thats not a hit on the kids at all. Cause they work their butts of and have for years to be better than teams that out-athlete them. But the truth is that they are not all that naturally talented and never really have been. And when you are playing in District you face teams that are good and bad. But when you get to the playoffs... everyone is good. So natural athletes start to play a much bigger role. And when a team like the Hill who is and has been very fundamentally sound and hard working but just mediocre athlete-wise and they get to the playoffs and play a team like we have in the past (Kirbyville, Central, PNG, etc.) who is also fundamentally sounds but has one or two big name players that are naturally great athletes it is the deciding factor. Barbers Hill in the last 10 years has not had the Athlete-pool do go any further than one or two rounds. That has nothing to do with coaching and it will remain that way with the next coach unless he brings some phenomenal athlete to town with him. [/quote] This is the truth Barbers Hill fans don't want to hear... As someone who has seen all the talent that is feeding up to Barbers Hill from Junior High (by watching them play at Dayton), there are two groups that do have talent, the current 9th graders and 7th graders are GOOD!, but... not good enough to beat Dayton, which is one of the best 4A football programs in the region. Forecast for Barbers Hill over the next half decade is they will have a team good enough to post winning records and maybe win a playoff game here or there, but a region III championship trophy (winning quarter finals) is probably not in the opting considering NONE of their teams beat Dayton this year (except for the last round of junior high games (8th A beat Dayton)). IMO... Coach Price was a good coach and got all he could out of what he was given. If the people in Barbers Hill think they can win the Kentucky derby riding a mule more power to them, but it is setting up the new coach for failure. [/quote] Purple please pull your head out ;D you could have said the same thing about Dayton the Year before Stewart showed up! The only thing you know about BH is the last 3 years, BH had lots of talent in the early 2000's! Dayton was blessed with 2 DIV 1 players which lead them to state and regionals, doesn't mean that it will just be like that from now on. Goodluck in the next round

[/quote] What Big time athlete's does PNG have this year? This always seems to be the case where folks talk down the talent at BH while hyping the coaches. There are plenty of programs that are successful in the state with out DIV1 talent. BH has been beaten in the playoff by teams with no big name athlete's. Now don't get me wrong I am aware that BH doesn't have DIV1 talent, but as a whole I think the kids at BH should be able to compete in our area. The coaches are a big part of the developement of the kids, but BH parents spend tons of money during the off season with special camps and coaching to make there kids better. I know some folks are upset due to coach Price leaving and some (BH34) would just love to see the next guy fail ,so he could flap his wings an say "I told you so". Me on the other hand could care less! Alot of folks have been wanting a change at BH and Price made several changes during the last 4-5 years to try and make BH better, Those attempts failed for what ever reason. The important thing here is the Kids at BH and the schools Tradition! Folks live in BH for a reason and its not the new Sonic ;D Bring on the new coach and lets see what the Eagles are capable of! 10 years is a lifetime for a Football Coach to be a t a school! I hope Coach Price goes to another school and wins 5 State Championships! This is not the end of the world for Price or BH both will be just fine!

[quote name="falcon83" post="711608" timestamp="1258576421"] huffman has one you can have and plus he can coach baseball.  ;) we are keeping our fingers crossed that he to will leave. hope bh gets a good coach. [/quote] ;D

[quote name="Stranger" post="711592" timestamp="1258574453"] Nice words BHFan, but not all accurate.  BH did lose to Robinson in 1999 but it was not barely, i think the final was 24-7.  Robinson did not go to state that year, they got beat the next week by Sealy.   As for PNG, they did not hire a proven AD, they hired a proven OC.  I bet Poole will hire one of his ex coaching buddies.  For all you BH people that hoped this day would come, you finally got it.   Good luck Coach Price, you deserve the best for what you have accomplished at BH.   [/quote] 99' has been a while I thought the score was 21-7, but like the PNG game this week it was closer than that. I looked it up though and it was 24-7 and they didn't get beat the next week they beat Marlin13-7 then lost to Sealy 27-14 in the Semi's ;D Anywho that was 10 years ago. I hope the best for BH in the years to follow

[quote name="UgotTRUCKED" post="711568" timestamp="1258572712"] Price's departure had nothing to do with W's and L's, it was pure politics. When you have an inner circle on a board who have children who play a sport that they feel is not what it once was then it's the football programs' fault and the AD who runs the department. Plain and simple this is what it is about. This has been brewing for years and the inner circle's attempt backfired on them the first time. They took the longer, slower approach this time trying to shield themselves from the ire of the community, but we all know how and why this happened. The reason it had to be now instead of at the end of the existing contract, however long that would be is because of the larger classes coming through the system would have made us more competitive and thus harder for the powers that be to make a change. That's it in a nutshell! Don't let anyone tell you any different. [/quote] Not sure I follow, but Price was let go because the football program at BH has peeked and change was needed. Being a coach is not your typical 9-5 job you are judged upon W's and L's as well as the other aspects of the job. When you have a job that is paid for by tax dollars then you are at the mercy of those who pay the taxes. Politics is a major part of this, but you just can't have a coach at a school for 40 years because he shows up on time! Now that being said Price did much more that just show up on time he pulled this program out of the gutter in 99' to go three rounds in the 3A playoffs barly losing to a Robinson team that I beleive went to state that year! Although I have been a major complainer when it comes to football over the years I wish Coach Price well and hope he lands a job that fits him and wish his family well. I have always thought Price was a good AD his management skills are fantastic, but at some point along the way the connection was lost with the kids. Again Thank You coach Price and may you and your family find success wherever you may go. Now the next concern will BH learn from PNG's success and go out State wide and pay top dollar for a proven AD? Or will the good ole boy hunt begin for a cousin/friend to take over the program? I hope we do this right and find someone to take this talent that is comming up and do something with it!!

Made ya look ;D
