Chris Babin named new AD/HC at Lumberton

[Mr. Buddy Garrity]

Yes sir, I do believe they could be classified as such.

Weird that someone from HD would say something like that when they have had athletic transfers roll thru. I just find it a bit odd. ;)

[Tee]

so are you saying PNG is recruiting athletes?

Of course not, I forgot Sparks AND the 1 or 2 kids from Breckenridge

When Burmett was there we had a center go there but was not allowed to play

To say they recruit would be wrong lets just say we named 7 WHO JUST HAppened to all want to take the communication class.

Let the facts above speak for themselves.

and YES coaches do sometimes let a non-touchable play ie the Principals kid who does your PDAS review every year, etc...

[liltex]

Bh needs to ramp up communications class asap to stick a feather in their battle blue caps :D

If that is what you truly believe, you are a part of the problem.

 

Coaches hang their livelihoods on wins and losses. To assume that a coach is playing another, less talented kid over yours due to politics, is a short sighted assessment. Your kid plays at Evadale because they are 2A and not 5A.

 

I don't believe I ever said that was happening in Lumberton. My kid plays at Evadale because he wants to, and academically one of the best schools in the area. If you don't think Lumberton could improve it's football program, you should look at PNG.....Their program starts at flag.......

[thetragichippy]

My kids have not always been a starter or on A team but I never felt like it was political. I guess I just don't have the victim mentality like some people.

 

The same with mine.....He has started and he has not started......

 

He asked to go because he had a friend going.....No victim mentality here.....

 

Apparently if you have a different opinion or don't like a program you are labeled with victim mentality?  I would call it having a pair and controlling your own destiny..... ;)

I'm only implying that you might have a victim mentality because you said, "He is loving it. No politics and the coaches play the best kid for the position....."

That would imply that the school district he attended previously did not play the best kid for the position and that there were politics.  We can only go by what you say on here, not what you are thinking.

I think it's fine to "have a pair and control your own destiny".  Just don't try to run down the program that you left once you are gone.

Not running it down.....but it needs improvement at the younger levels.....

 

Are you saying there are no politics at Lumberton?  Just curious.....

[Scatright]

Easy there hoss! My son plays at Evadale. In the summer he plays on a team comprised of a lot of small school kids. We compete, and win against all competition. No need to disparage small school athletes to make yourself feel better.

 

Isnt HD a small school?  

 

Weird that someone from HD would say something like that when they have had athletic transfers roll thru. I just find it a bit odd. ;)

 

Sometimes I wonder if you guys read for context, or just read to find a way to slight HDISD. I was obviously speaking to the fact that he moved his son so he could play more. If you think that 2A athletes are the same as 4A athletes, you have lost your mind. The implication was that his son wasn't good enough to play at a 4A. Evadale's field is littered with athletes that wouldn't sniff the field at Lumberton.

 

This has nothing to do with transfers that "roll thru" HD. Garrity, who once was a well respected poster, has taken the position of resident troll around here.

Disparage small school athletes? That makes me shake my head.

 

You have a son who plays on a summer league team "comprised of a lot of small school kids", that competes against "all" competition, and that is your basis for arguing that small schools don't have more opportunity for lesser athletes to play than bigger schools? Get out of here with that nonsense.

 

Take the top three footballers from HD (with the exception of Cade Huckaby. I'd contend that he could play, in some role, anywhere. He wouldn't be a QB though) and move them to PNG, and they're on the golf team, with their parents complaining about politics.

Garrity is not the resident troll......

 

A mirror is needed

Its certain HD posters who troll on here, I couldnt give a damn if you respect me on here, the absolute least of my worries. 

 

And the implication wasn't that if you read, his son wanted to go to school with his friend.

[Scatright]

Actually, I live in Lumberton and Son asked last year to go to Evadale. A friend of his had went and loved it. He is loving it. No politics and the coaches play the best kid for the position......

 

 

Ok, Garrity, lets play a game. Find the implication. Explain to me how this statement implies that his kid went to Evadale to "be with a friend"? I'll wait....

As soon as you disagree with someone, they attack the quality of athelete your kid is.

 

5A or 1A....what percent of these kids actually play college football? My research shows about 3-4%

 

The rest will talk about it about the high school days for the rest of their lives.......What is wrong with going to a school where you play 100% of the time versus 25% of the time? Who is going to have the better stories??

He might have got hit in the head too many times playing that 5A football........lol

Certainly you're not speaking of me. If you are, you haven't been paying attention.

 

And for what it's worth, you could care if I respect you on here. You literally have nearly 56,000 posts on this message board. It's obviously pretty important to you to spend huge chunks of your day on here. I'd imagine your reputation as a poster and "staff member" was something that's important to you. In trying to follow the crowd, you have become one of several that spend all day disparaging the kids and residents of Hull Daisetta with your constant banter regarding the athletes, and state of the program. You have lost my respect, whether you care or not.

So you admit that your kid went to Evadale to play "100%" of the time, not to hang with his buddy. There is nothing wrong with it, but don't act like he was only playing 25% of the time because of politics in Lumberton. That is what you said. This started with you saying that you moved him to Evadale because coaches played the better player and didn't play politics.

[thetragichippy]

He apparently attacks everyone that does not think like him.....

 

You are still "the man"  with your 55,777 post,.......lol

You are obviously having an issue understanding what an implication is. Yeah he stated that, but then implied that it was because coaches in Lumberton played politics. Once again, trolling. Do what you have to do to get that post count up Buddy! Maybe they'll send you a certificate for your bedroom when you hit 100k!

Says the guy who accused the coaches in Lumberton of playing politics to keep his kid off of the field. Hello pot.....
