Whatever Surratt makes at Carthage he is worth it. He brings way more money back into that program then he draws back.  Way more.

If $175k really won't touch what he's currently making then he's probably not bringing way more into the program than he draws? With the way he's winning the community is definitely more apt to donate funds or approve bonds though. Carthage's stadium holds 6k so call it $50k per game average the district clears for a total of $250k for the five home games. Give them another $100k for merchandising and playoff games which totals $350k for the football program. The football program doesn't pay his salary but if it did that's about 50% of what it would gross annually. Like you said, he's worth whatever the community allows the board to pay him. I just think it's interesting that his individual salary is over 3X what the average household income is in Carthage.

And they just put the finishing touch on a 750000 dollar scoreboard .

Abseck would be a great hire.  Cedar Park plays smart and hard. High energy!

Word is there’s a dark horse candidate emerging. La Porte offensive line coach Jimmy “Bones” Beasley was seen touring the lavish BH facilities with the supt earlier today. Don’t be surprised if they pull the trigger on this one quickly.

That would definitely be an upgrade for him. 😁

Hearing OL coach just retired, could be for OL coach?

Maybe so. Bones is a super solid candidate. Olympic caliber shot and discus coach as well.

He should come to Port Arthur Memorial then 😁

so what's the haps?  Now that Saban signed an extension with Alabama are they back at square one?

It seems Bh is waiting an awfully long time to choose the new HC. The new guy will have under two months to get things in place, and that’s if they made a decision today. (Which, based on this thread, hasn’t happened yet). But I don’t have any perspective as to how long new coaches usually have prior to the new season. 

[2wedge]

Seems like Mr. Dodge may have used BH in the same way Saban uses Texas every couple of years. Probably secured a bit of a raise out of the whole ordeal. 

[BHFAN]

Shhh we’re trying to bring home a another State Championship, then we can deal with a Coach 👍

[Separation Scientist]

I hope BH makes the right choice, not necessarily the fast choice. Its worth waiting to get the right one.

Even if it means waiting just weeks before the season starts ?  At this point, it may be better to promote within for this year. The season is not that far off.

Toby was witnessed getting his daily half marathon in at the Eagle Pointe Rec in Mont Belvieu this morning. When asked about his interest in the Barbers Hill opening, he was quoted as saying he doesn’t comment on contract negotiations.

I think so. BH is probably not going to win State this year, regardless who comes when. Having a somewhat late hire "might" cost a team game or two during the season (or not), but the most important thing is getting the right candidate for long term success. Right candidates are really hard to come by, so any temporary inconvenience for this season is worth it. Hire the right guy when you can, whenever it might be.

It’s a head coach of a Austin area high school…. 

[saltydawg]

Is he currently a Head Coach or was he one in the past and now in administration?

BH never gonna win a state title in football. Write that down 

[navydawg31]

Is Carl Abseck coming to the hill…? 

[Mr. Buddy Garrity]

Well after what I just got told im interested in seeing if "he" can roll in some transfer athletes, cause I sure thought Westy would do it but it didn't happen. We shall see I guess. 

 

I agree with Uncle Pig up above......for now.

No, I am not going to write anything down. There are numerous examples of State Champs who probably thought they would never win it. Besides that, why discourage anyone? What do you get out of doing that?
