Beaumont ISD hires Eric Peevey as West Brook HC

[mistro]

If Peevey is successful  he will be gone within a couple of years, this is a stepping stone for him.  BISD is so dysfunctional why would anyone

with any sense want the job. Only reason build resume or your cannot get employment at any other school.

Stepping stone?  Maybe that's why they should have given it to the guy who actually went to school there, is from Beaumont and would probably be there long term if successful...

[Irishwoad]

You mean the guy who took the north Texas o line job before interviews at west Brook happened? I wouldn't consider that long term. 

Peevey is born and raised SETX. He isn't going anywhere, his entire family lives here. I would assume his interview gave that away 

[BMTSoulja1]

I knew the detractors would come...

Detractor? How is anything being taken away from anything. 

Facts not opinion was stated

I think he's referring to BISD haters

Peevey isn't that good of a coach, period! WB defense sucked with him at the head. The same DC that gave up 72 to the Woodlands and 63 to Lufkin. The Bruins never played good defense under him.They just happen to be ridiculously strong on offense to overcome his lack a defensive coaching. Hell Jeff Nelson is more qualified to be HC than Peevey. This is a horrible hire!

I don't know if it will be a good hire or not, but again I ask, how precisely does your success or lack thereof as a coordinator translate as a head coach? Totally different positions. I've seen great coordinators that fail as head coaches. 

[Irishwoad]

they did give up points but they still went 11-2. Not to mention the year before their defense was pretty nasty good. Does that mean he lost the ability to coach in that year? I hope he does a good job, and the kids respond to him. 

Why didn't the OC apply for the job?

The defense was never nasty! His scheme sucked. They had kids that would make plays from time to time, but never really shut teams down. The 11-2 record was from the offense being so good that the Bruins could out score people. The defense never stopped Longview. The defense allow Centennial to get back into the game with a 27-3 halftime lead. And Westfield ran wild on the defense. The OC is even less qualified than Peevey.

If you can't be successful with one phase of the football team, how can you manager all three phases and everything else that comes with being head coach? Have you ever seen a person that sucks as a coordinator become a great head coach? If I'm wrong, I'll be the first person on here apologizing and giving Peevey his props. But, I just don't see it. He'll win some games cause West Brook has a group with serious talent but, Peevey won't get the most out of all that talent.

.... And Yeoj is one of those WB fans that's followed Bruin football for many moons, even during the Rhabb years.  One of the many Bruins fans not really happy about the hire, AAW.

I disagree, i think it's a excellent hire .

[Irishwoad]

Ok so u say he is terrible hire because the defense was bad and the offense was ridiculously strong. Pretty sure the offense was very good.  Then you say the offensive coordinator is even less qualified, that doesn't make sense going by your reason for saying peevey shouldn't get the job. 

I believe you just wanted an outside hire that was a big splash. Problem is nobody wanted the job but a handful of people.

...there were more than 8 applicants.  That's definitely a lot more than a 'handful'.

I understand your misgivings about Coach Peevey (although I don't completely agree with them).  But my question is, of the known applicants for the job, which one would you have preferred seeing chosen over Peevey?

[Irishwoad]

I agree. What person on that list was better then peevey knowing that Langston took a job at north Texas. 

And there was not many that applied for the job at all. There is a distain for bisd outside of Beaumont. A lot of people steer clear of them because of the past. 

[Irishwoad]

Even 20 people applying is a handful considering. 

6a

11-2 

3 rounds deep and most kids back on offense that was good. 

Over 79 applicants for the Bryan rudder job z

5a 

2-8 or something

Where did you get the information that ONLY 20 people applied?  It's information that I have not seen...

You are so full of it till its ridiculous! I wanted a competent coach with a history of making good decisions as pertained to winning football games. The OC was a first year coordinator that was only coaching at WB for his 2nd season last year. He did a good job with Flannigan looking over his shoulder being there to help. But, not nearly experienced enough for Head coach. And you are also wrong about nobody wanting the job. What are your ties to West Brook, BISD, and Peevey?

Out of that list, Jeff Nelson is more qualified than Peevey! He was OC for WB during part of Stump's tenure. He was Head coach of an Ozen team that were on the verge of being competitive again, including knocking off the Bruins. He was recently the OC for Central.

Fair enough.  You are one of the few here who looks to be willing to stay within the applicants rather than just merely being critical.

I hope I'm a 100% wrong about Peevey! And, I'll be the first to say so. I just don't see it.
