But that's why I asked, because I have no idea how anyone could think Coach Williams being gone would be a good thing. Suffice it to say that some of the administrators were less than stellar.

Uncle Pig Posted July 10, 2021 Report Share Posted July 10, 2021 Yeah he’ll keep em on track alright..dude has 2 winning seasons out of 12 seasons as a head coach (a smooth 29-88 record leading the stellar southeast Texas programs of Santa Flush and Warren). Of course the powers that be will say “he has experience as a head coach/AD”. aTmfan06 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will wait From Uncle Pig: "The sign of a good coach...a coach that goes to a place that has never won before and starts to win at that place." There are numerous places in Texas I could offer. So, why would any southeast Texas school be any different with the right coach? BTW: To answer your question, Doug Ethridge comes to mind. PNG's last State Title was in 1955. For the next 20 years they could manage only 2 district championships. Ethridge took over and won 4 straight district titles and played in 2 state tiles winning one. The difference? The 'RIGHT" coach came along! Hagar 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. I am still waiting. These are all the same TEAMS that have won year after year for the last 30 years. Only Hardin has not won anything ---with Larry Haynes they won a little but he's about the only person I see on this list that came into a terrible situation and won ball games. Everyone else on this list took over programs that had won before and ironically, they still WIN TODAY without them there. So, its more the kids than it is the coach Next...........

So lets all agree KIRBYVILLE does not make this list. Barbers Hill ---- How can you be that dumb to mention Barbers Hill and Don Price BH has won since the very beginning. They HAVE STATE CHAMPIONSHIPS in their trophy cases. I'm going to retract my statement on Dayton and Jerry Stewart. He's got to get some credit. Dayton was maybe the crappiest team in the state before he got there They dominated under his reign for 20 years and then he left and they fell apart and still can't get their mojo back. Diboll has won alot in the past / Livingston has won quite a bit in the past Woodville has tradiotionally been a .500 ball club. No they dont make deep playoff runs, but they get there ALOT !

How do you explain Evans at EC, Stump at Brook, Alvarez at Kirbyville, Haynes at Hardin, and Tarver at BC? You left those out in your attempted rebuttal.

Godzilla Posted July 14, 2021 Report Share Posted July 14, 2021 Well all that talk may not matter. Haven't heard that Buckner was taking the job. As of today it's still open. Along with head baseball, Jh/elem principal, and HS principal. So they still only have 3 boys coaches on staff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purpleeagle Posted July 14, 2021 Report Share Posted July 14, 2021 Alvarez took over Kirbyville in 2000 prior to that Kirbyville had a 25 game losing streak. In 3 years He led Kirbyville to their first playoff birth in 14 years and it only got better after that until he left for Ennis. That fits my definition of turning a program around. aTmfan06 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
