NeverSayDie Posted March 5, 2007 Report Posted March 5, 2007 Since Brooks is staying at JT, who could be next in line for this job?
Jasper88 Posted March 5, 2007 Report Posted March 5, 2007 Have any finalists been named or interviews conducted?
KFDM COOP Posted March 5, 2007 Report Posted March 5, 2007 Coach Thomas Brooks Turned the job down Monday morning.
Jasper88 Posted March 6, 2007 Report Posted March 6, 2007 I mean, were any other finalists named, or will they start over from scratch?
KFDM COOP Posted March 6, 2007 Report Posted March 6, 2007 They stopped taking applications Monday. A coach will be recommened by the end of the month. I have no names though.
AstrosDawg07 Posted March 7, 2007 Report Posted March 7, 2007 Coach Thomas Brooks Turned the job down Monday morning.Surprissed but then again I'm not. It didn't make sense for Brooks to leave a 5A for a 3A, but I was hoping he would take in consideration his roots and took the job. Hopefully this will open the job up for Farrar, he defintely deserves it.
AstrosDawg07 Posted March 10, 2007 Report Posted March 10, 2007 Anything new, or when we should expect a decison.?
KFDM COOP Posted March 10, 2007 Report Posted March 10, 2007 Toward the end of the month! No names yet since Brooks turned it down.
Hupernikomen Posted March 16, 2007 Report Posted March 16, 2007 According to the Jasper paper Brooks was never offered the job, but did discuss the possiblity with Coleman. Brooks didn't think it was the right time.
Mr. Buddy Garrity Posted March 16, 2007 Report Posted March 16, 2007 According to the Jasper paper Brooks was never offered the job, but did discuss the possiblity with Coleman. Brooks didn't think it was the right time.Not the right time? what no talent in Jasper?
AHUDDLESTON Posted March 19, 2007 Report Posted March 19, 2007 This process is starting to look like others in the area where mum is the word.
KFDM COOP Posted March 19, 2007 Report Posted March 19, 2007 The two finalists will be announced Thursday or Friday.
KFDM COOP Posted March 20, 2007 Report Posted March 20, 2007 I'm hoping to have some news by the end of the week!
j_dog Posted March 20, 2007 Report Posted March 20, 2007 I'm hoping to have some news by the end of the week!it will be another big surprise! surely not going local, or they would have announced it weeks ago.
Lazeek Posted March 21, 2007 Report Posted March 21, 2007 This will not be a local guy......Jasper will be able to bring in a great coach and turn that programa round after the disaster this year.
Guest trash Posted March 21, 2007 Report Posted March 21, 2007 Has anyone ever heard of the "other" coach Sutherland?
AggiesAreWe Posted March 21, 2007 Report Posted March 21, 2007 I know this may sound blasphemous since I am a Silsbee Tiger, but I'm really hoping Jasper hires a coach that can turn that program around. It's just not right in the football world to have Jasper at the bottom of the pile. Last year's Bulldog team was one of the worst I have ever seen in all my years of watching Tiger-Bulldog games. Silsbee won the game 35-0, but they only played 2 1/2 quarters due to weather. Silsbee could have scored 60 on this team. The Jasper team was very unagressive and was one of the slower Jasper teams I had ever seen. I know Silsbee had a very good team this year, but in that game I was more suprised in Jasper's lack of talent than Silsbee's good play. It was pretty obvious and that is very unusual. After Jasper dropped down to 3A, I would have bet the house that they would not have a year like last year. Let's hope they get the right man for the job, those guys up there deserve it.

But, in 4a, with just a few more athletes, Jasper for years seemed to have enough athletes to compete at 4a, and even against the strong 5a teams they played. Suddenly, there seems to be a problem with "numbers". I think part of the answer lies in some (maybe several) athletes opting to play only basketball, and or baseball. Why these players opted to not play football is unknown to me. They probably had good reasons. But, to excel in sports, we need those players to play all the sports. Maybe a new administration can get some of those players back out to play football as well as the other sports. Oh for the days when Jasper had athletes like Reggie Davis who played on the FB team which lost to Willowridge (Thurman Thomas) in the playoffs, played basketball, ran track on a state championship team, and just a month or so later was back in Austin playing on a Jasper state tournament baseball team.As for the Jasper/Silsbee game last year, I think the youngsters finally just ran out of steam. I saw them play a pretty good 4a Livingston team early in the year and actually I thought they looked pretty good then. Given a decent chance, they should be back strong this year.
shooter Posted March 22, 2007 Report Posted March 22, 2007 More info. on Todd's brother please. Where is he? What's his current title? What kind of guy is he?
SuperflySnuka Posted March 23, 2007 Report Posted March 23, 2007 Certainly Jasper won't throw Texas High School Football Coaches under the bus and hire someone who is coaching in Louisiana, would they??? Are you kidding me??? I don't care who's brother it is.
