SuperflySnuka Posted February 5, 2007 Report Posted February 5, 2007 What's going down in Jasper? Who are the early candidates for the head coaching job?
WarriorSports Posted February 5, 2007 Report Posted February 5, 2007 I dunno, does not seem to me likes its a dream job for anyone...with such a bad record last year, with little coming back..YIKES!
SuperflySnuka Posted February 5, 2007 Author Report Posted February 5, 2007 Oh, there are still athletes and linemen in Jasper.
SuperflySnuka Posted February 5, 2007 Author Report Posted February 5, 2007 There is no reason Jasper shouldn't be able to beat on any given year, up or down in talent, the following teams from their district:OrangefieldHamshire-FannettHardin-JeffersonBridge CitySo, who's left: WOS, Kirbyville, SilsbeeJasper has good enough talent year in and year out to beat at least one of those three teams left to make the playoffs. Tell me where I'm wrong.
Guest Wildcat 08 Posted February 5, 2007 Report Posted February 5, 2007 Farrar an asst. will have a good shot at getting the job.
Bulldog92 Posted February 5, 2007 Report Posted February 5, 2007 Farrar an asst. will have a good shot at getting the job. From what I hear, that's the popular choice among the kids there that have played for him. The Dogs have had a pattern of getting guys that see the program as a stepping stone for something bigger and better. There were a bunch of coaches that applied for the job when Coach Brooks left, so I hope some good coaches will put their names in the proverbial hat. Sadly, it may never be the last stop that Coach Walkoviak might have envisioned when he took that job back in '77, but I would hope that someone could re-fortify the program and stick around for a while. To that end, you have to admire what Coach Hooks and Coach Barbay have done at WO-S and Newton, respectively, and what Coach Alvarez has done in his time at Kirbyville. On a side note, I got to know Coach Alvarez during my last year in Jasper when he was working on Coach Walkoviak's staff. He's a GREAT guy and I'm happy that he's found success with the Wildcats, even though he's throttled the 'Dogs a time or two lately.
SuperflySnuka Posted February 6, 2007 Author Report Posted February 6, 2007 That's interesting. I didn't know Alvarez had coached at Jasper. Maybe that's who they should go and get. If he wins at Kirbyville, just think how he'd really win at Jasper with better athletes!

Mr. Buddy Garrity Posted February 7, 2007 Report Posted February 7, 2007 Right now Ville has the better athletes.

Jasper88 Posted February 13, 2007 Report Posted February 13, 2007 I heard that there were only 26 kids total in Jasper's football off-season. Can anybody verify this?
Guest Eagle73 Posted February 15, 2007 Report Posted February 15, 2007 There's talent at every school around. The difference is in establishing a program and using the talent that's available to it's best end. Coach Barbay has for many years not had the best talent pool to draw from, but has fielded teams with talent where it could best be utilized. Talent comes in many levels and a program to improve each individuals talent level is what is important. Then meshing these many levels into one team is the trick. Coach Alverez also coached under Barbay as have many. Barbay for President!!! Go Eagles!!
Jasper88 Posted February 15, 2007 Report Posted February 15, 2007 You can't compare other coaches/programs to Curtis Barbay. He stands alone. He's one of kind. Great coach. . . . great man.
Bulldog92 Posted February 15, 2007 Report Posted February 15, 2007 You can't compare other coaches/programs to Curtis Barbay. He stands alone. He's one of kind. Great coach. . . . great man.Agreed. ;D
Mr. Buddy Garrity Posted February 16, 2007 Report Posted February 16, 2007 Dream on.... :Well the dream is reality as of now. Sorry, but it is what it is.
