Wow tough tough loss for the Dogs. He could call some defense, his game plans were always scrappy just like most of defenses he coached. Enjoy your retirement coach! 

I wonder who will replace him? Outside hire or someone current on the staff? 

Im hearing coach Theriot......

Good for Chris. He has his great supporting staff on the team and his dad always to lean to and to help him. 

Now there is a certain coach at the middle school ranks to bring up to the varsity level to replace Chris’s position. 

oh, who?

Coach Smith was at CO Wilson a few years back. Not sure if he is still there, but he was very good.

Smith does is basketball thing. And is in charge of that. I wish they would bring him up and give English a great assistant for the basketball side of things.

Varsity level not freshman, or middle school duties. Strictly basketball

Chris Smith is varsity basketball asst. & head freshmen basketball coach. There is no coach at nhs that is strictly varsity basketball only. English coaches all 3 levels at practice & in some games.

Which is why he needs help. It’s not fair to English especially the way he has turned the program around with his tenure being there. It’s time to reward him and give the man the help he deserves and the tools to reach the next level.

Coach Spell is a great man and will be missed on and off the field.  He is a man of great character and integrity he did it the Buldog Way,. One of the best Men I have ever been around. He and his wife raised,  amazing kids, two of which are educators. There will never be another like him, they broke that mold. Enjoy retirement Coach and know that you have impacted so many players and coaches in a   positive way.

    • That’s a heck of a take there. If you could just remove Kountze’s top 6-7 players, you got them.
    • naw, maaaaybe 7, definitely not 8 deep.  today im avoiding sitting by #10s parents, had to move away yesterday.   "put my son back in jub, put my son back in"  and then crying on every little touch of someone.    lets ball out today ktz!    
    • Very close game until the 2nd half (mostly the 4th) when Orangefield came unraveled. Worse defensive effort I have seen out of the Bobcats in three years. This team has to get back on D and quit getting beat over the top when pressing. Offensively, non ball handlers continually turn it over and their shot selection is poor. Basic basketball, such as: defensive hustle, boxing out, and taking care of the basketball are the areas the Bobcats need to work on most. Whitmire will get them on point, but he shouldn't have to coach effort at the Varsity Level.  We'll be at McNeese this Friday night at 6pm.
    • I don’t benefit from it, that’s not my area.  But the average cost to imprison someone is around $15k per year (on average in the US) and capital cases cost somewhere between $1.5-$3M with over half being overturned or reduced to life in prison anyway.  These numbers may be inflated since the last report I read but I’m sure it would be on both sides and higher on the DP side if anything. So what’s the point?  We feel better because we got to return the favor on someone (hopefully) who committed a heinous crime?  And I don’t know I can say we have “complicated” it. Which appeal should we cut out?  Our justice system has a pecking order and we have higher courts for a reason. When we are about to impose the ultimate judgment, should we cut steps that other cases have to save a buck?  Or do we not pay for an indigent person’s experts at the trial court level because it’s too expensive? Or do we just lock them up and throw away the key (unless we later find out they weren’t actually guilty, in which case we have a key and a life we haven’t unjustly ended) and save a ton of money?  Seems to me to be an obvious solution but I’m more of a pragmatist.
    • 1 thing for certain. Coach Earned 3 more years to figure it out lol
