Hey man, I want the kids at United to win just as much as you.  Still mad at whomever called that timeout last week..... 

AL is the one to blame for that.   I can think of 3 other games where decisions similar cost us some close games.  7 point loss to PA Memorial, 4 point loss to CE King and 6 point loss to LaPorte.

I feel you and know we're on the same side here.  2 grads from Central despite me being from PA

Time for A. LuLu to TAPOUT. The kids, parents and fans deserve better.

Just my opinion, if he loses to Deer Park Friday, which will have United missing the playoffs, I think he steps down.  The problem with that is that the Assistant Superintendent SA wants to give the position to ET.

If he wins Friday, they will make the playoffs, he may see it as enough reason to return for another go around.

I see Arthur stepping down after this season, win or lose Friday night.

It's time to clean house BISD. Get a coach from outside the area and let him bring in most of his staff.

This is what needs to definitely happen but we will just have to wait and see.  If AL steps down, I hope he does it soon enough to get some decent applicants...

From the outside looking in and with no horse in the race.... 

I think that Louis was a low profile, good guy (not good ol’ boy) fill in with the turmoil of combining the schools and trying to hire their first coach. I told coworkers from Beaumont and before the season started that in my opinion Louis was one and done. Actually no one disagreed. 

With the likelihood of trying to combine coaches from Ozen and Central staffs and not letting an outside HC come in and bring in all new coaches (or at least OC and DC..... if thatwas done), Louis was seen as easing into the situation. I can’t imagine that he was ever seen as a long term solution to building a new and solid program. That will hopefully be done with the new coach after this first year of not only football but an entirely new combined school with claims (at least in forums such as this) of possible trouble between students of former (bitter?) rivals. In effect Louis might been seen as a fill in to get that first tough year out of the way and then return to his former life without much fanfare. 

But again, that is from the outside looking in with no inside knowledge whatsoever. Maybe Louis was the right guy at the right time for a tough situation. He wasn’t the future but a guy who put the train on the tracks for the new conductor to be named later.

And with all of that, plus 18 years removed from coaching, no he wasn't.  Plus I hear, his hiring was a set for more mediocrity when he steps down.  There's a cat at Klien Collins who just beat the Woodlands for the DC.  I'd love to see him hired or persued but that would be too much like right

Your coworkers must have been Ozen and Hebert faithful because most of them were all in on the hire where people from the other side of town, like me, were against it.  But what could you do besides support the kids and the coaching staff?  I was being optimistic that he could jump back in the game and get it done.

The kids seem to be fine, playing together and supportive of each other.

That's what they want to do, but we as fans, supporters and parents have to do what it takes to make sure this doesn't happen.

If Coach Mitchell aint' from Beaumont, he ain't leaving a team that is currently 9-1, has a bigger enrollment of students (3,600) to come to Beaumont unless he isn't making close to $120,000.

The only ones that I know their school is WB and Central. 

 None of that matters except that was why I was maki g the comments  

I still think that Louis was more like an interim HC and not looked at as the future of United. I think that he was probably done after this year no matter what they did. It was late in the process of getting a new coach and he was available.

It wasn't late in the hiring process, he was just the only one that would come on board and use the coaches that were already there.  Plus he goes to church with all the powers that be.
