Give the guy a shot. It could have been worst. Y’all could have gotten Moody. Do you know any other applicants that applied?  Send me a message if you of any

Lumberton doesn’t have the personnel to successfully run the spread. Never has, and if Coach Reyes is really, REALLY good in 6-8 years they might be able to develop some. 
 

I always say that BC kids don’t want to grow up and be QB1 for the cards... they want to be the ace pitcher. Lumberton boys grow up wanting to be first chair French horn.

Welcome to SETX, Coach Reyes.

No doubt we could’ve gotten worse. We had a 2 win season last year...I guess it could’ve been worse too. See my point?

Gotcha. Makes sense. Either the town/administration will understand that and give him time to develop his system. Or he'll understand he doesn't have that luxury and will run an offense that will work with his players. Best of luck to him and Lumberton.

I wonder how often Bridge City has beat Lumberton in soccer, probably never since L-Town is one of the best programs boys and girls in the area. We know how to do more than play the French Horn.

Soccer? Really? That’s what you're gonna come back with? I’ll bet YOU didn’t know that our cross country team won state one time, did you? So there! 

Stop playing around.... or our one-act-play team will act y’all right off of the stage. 

[Raider24]

Wish Coach Reyes luck in his new endeavors. Hopefully he'll get his staff together and spend some quality time with the middle school program since they will be moving right next to the high school. Hire a strength and conditioning coach. He has a good freshman and sophomore group to work with. 

[Never Quit]

They do need a good strength coach.

[Tiger33]

You can have the best strength coach in America but if the kids don’t dedicate themselves to working out during school and off season it won’t matter. I honestly hope they do improve.  

[CardinalBacker]

I wasn’t even kidding earlier. I know of a Lumberton kid whose dad played defensive end at U of H. He’s in high school now... big frame, athletic, rolls jiu jitsu... younger sister plays select soccer. Kid is all about marching band. It blows my mind.

Hmmm... 🤔 That’s something, you boys want to match up FFA and Welding programs. We’ll throw them V’s up all in your face!

I would like to see the list of applicants.

Unfortunately some of the applicants didn’t want their current boss to find out that they applied. So, unless it’s leaked out it’s probably not going to be made public.  I will say this, they had applicants from Dallas Area , Houston Area , East Texas, Central Texas and local that applied.

You on the school board?

If that is the case they shouldn’t have applied, if a request is made this list would be required to be released due to the Texas Public Information Act.

And that's all a local media person would need to do.

Where's Danny Shapiro when you need him?

Important question: Who cares who applied? The ones asking aren’t from Lumberton and whoever else applied didn’t get the job.

I use those lists to gauge the quality of a school.  It says a lot about a school and its administration if no "names" show up for the job.
