If I was Dan I would steer clear of that mess there in BC. 

Winning solves a lot of problems.  There's nothing in Hook's past that would say anything other than he could win in Bridge City!

Like I have said, winning solves a lot of problems.  So, if Bridge City would have gone 10-0 and made a decent showing in the playoffs -- would we be having this conversation?

Are you guys seriously talking about Dan Hooks becoming the HC at Bridge City? 80 year old Coach Hooks?

All jokes aside, it's not uncommon to see a trainer (who plays baseball) warming up the qb on the sidelines with a better arm than whoever is actually going to play the game.

I've said it before, and I'll say it again.  There are multiple kids in Port Neches who have every intention of growing up to be the quarterback of the PNG Indians... and doing everything that they can to make that dream come true.  That's not the case in Bridge City.  Shugart didn't pay his senior season in 2015 because of a "shoulder injury."  I'll be honest... I wouldn't have played on a losing team, either, if I had a spot locked down to pitch for the Longhorns.  The kids who play baseball are too involved playing select ball, etc, to ever hone their qb skills.  It's not something you can pick up once you're in high school.  

In 2014 we were starting Trahan as a sophomore... He went down at LiCk'eM and they moved the middle linebacker Dearing to QB to finish the year.  It was a long season running the spread without a true quarterback.  We had big Dubois in 2015, then moved Trahan back to QB from linebacker in 2016 for his senior year.   Little Dubois was under center for 2017.  If you consider that both of the Dubois were transfers, you get a really good idea of how bad the qb situation really is.  

Baseball is king.  Football started to compete with Baseball at BC and they ran off a good HC/AD.  That's just how it goes over here.

I appreciate everything you just said. And I have no idea why they can't both be good.

Did anybody watch the Longhorn game last night?  While Kam Fields was pitching all they talked about was 2-sport athletes. Keith Moreland (commentates on UT baseball) played both football and baseball at Texas. College Baseball coaches love the kids that play both football and baseball.

High School baseball coaches should be encouraging their players to play both football and baseball, trust me, I do.

I love seeing multiple-sport athletes.  Specializing and going the "select" route is ruining sports.  It is possible to focus on one sport while participating in others as well.  I did it.  I knew all along that basketball was my strong suit but that didn't stop me from helping my school in whatever athletic sport that I could.

With the insurgency of specializing and the fact that kids bounce all over the place at the drop of a hat...we've lost the old fashioned just play for school pride if nothing else.

So very true.

The concept that the name on the "FRONT" of the jersey is more important than the name on the back of the jersey, is completely foreign to today's players..

Offensive. He went to high school at Nederland. coached at La Porte during there hey day several round deep at the highest classification. Then went over to png for 3 or 4 seasons? Playoffs couple rounds deep every year.  Now over at PAM with the new coach getting hired. He is a offensive line coach and most of his stops he has been on several winning teams as a player and coach and knows how to win. Young guy and eager to get the “job” with plenty of winning tradition on his resume

It’ll take a young (or at least unproven) assistant in my opinion. There’s exactly a 0% chance that we lure another proven successful HC like the one we just ran off. 

The thing that worries me the most is the scheme... we just havent had the personnel to run a spread-type offense here. Stump was a fine man, but you’re not going to move the ball in the shotgun without a decent qb.... the few years that we were successful were years that our defense was exceptional. 

I mean, unless he brings a qb with him, lol.
