Look around the coaching ranks, there are a lot of Barbay's doing a lot of good things. Brian had quite a few great teams in Coldspring and led one to a state championship appearance, You are familiar with Darrell's work, Kevin just landed an OC job at a Division one school after being very successful at Western Michigan, Florida, and SFA just to name a few, Brady is at Newton and is an up and comer in SETX and there are several other's in the pipeline behind them. And I haven't even mentioned Mrs. Barbay's contributions over the years to JISD in various positions. The ongoing legacy left by the OG Barbay's in Newton is something to be applauded and not brushed off by nitwit's who could only wish their last name carried some type of clout. The grass ain't always greener bubba......I hope I'm not back here in November saying I told you so. I just ask if he would of got hired if his last name was different. I didn't ask for a barbay family tree although I'm sure their last names opened some doors to opportunities they never would had otherwise. Quote

The grass ain't always greener bubba......I hope I'm not back here in November saying I told you so. Let me start with this. I personally don't know Thorton in any shape,format or fashion(that I an aware of). Can't tell ya if he/she has been to one,every or any Jasper Bulldogs football games. I do know Thorton has made some positive and supportive post on Jasper threads and the one particular post you quoted then responded with a confrontational tone was/is a fair reasonable post. Cause I am gonna tell ya right here and now Jasper fans including myself at sometime wondered the same thing. You know why? for the very reasons you named. The words clout, success, and tradition . I even said myself that when your last name is synonymous with a coaching legend it helps in regards to getting jobs. to think otherwise is foolish. Yes,Darrell had above .500 success before he got to Jasper and had earned his own way. While here he won alot of games and stayed in line with the winning tradition synonymous (I noticed you like that word) associated with the Barbay name. Tradition,success, by default brings with it EXPECTATIONS! Four out of 10 seasons Darrell coached here in Jasper he had the young men to go farther than the 3rd of playoffs '13,'14,17, and 18(BTW, the Silver&Blue ended two of those seasons). Myself,(and to make it clear don't let my current ID fool ya, I have been around this forum a pretty good while. I used to be JasperDAWG but I broke some rules and was shunned for a period) and the handful of true Jasper fans who regularly post here have NEVER bashed Barbay if anyone come close it was probably me. Have we questioned some things he did, of course. Just like fans of WOS did to Coach T and that man did nothing but in 11 short years as Coach there put together a hall of fame career. Since Darrell left, and I remind you he left on his own on a Thursday to take a job and start the Tuesday following. Yet, us Jasper posters [or maybe nit wits as you say] have made a point publicly to wish him well. after this past season where in 3 games (so badly that other teams fans said they felt bad for our players) Darell Barbay basically conceded games. I had mentioned he looked like a coach trying to get season over with so he could retire Then look what happened. So all the Barbay family tree you spoke of and the success. Guess what? the Barbay member we experienced has a third round ceiling, conceded games(so it appeared in multiple seasons), and then leaves our kids(yes we parents as well) on what 4-5 days notice. None of which are synonymous with the Barbay name. So how and/or why come November(ironically the month Darrell could NOT get us passed) will you be telling us " I told ya so" ? chefkland76, Mr. Thornton Melon and scat_trap 2 1 Quote

You and I both know he didn't just pick up and leave for no reason. The politics in that town, especially in relation to athletics, are unbelievable. We can go back and forth on this, but there's no use. He's happy, Jasper is happy, so were just beating a dead horse. The "I Told Ya So" comment would be for the ones who would rather see him leave than stay. I hope that is not the case, but I've been around long enough to know the grass isn't always greener in these situations. Also, conceding games, come on man. scat_trap 1 Quote

No doubt. Seems very likely that the "coaches quit". Coaches always "quit" and the fans are the ones who can tell. Just by watching in the stands, the fans can tell that the coaches "quit" and that they probably didnt spend several hours watching film. Just decided to "quit". That is what it means when a team loses by 13. Quote

Some, not even that. Now, since you didnt pay attention I will explain to you as to why that was pointed out(apparently you don't realize) he spoke of the name Barbay and the success that is synonymous with it. Well, Curtis and Brian Barbay both lead teams to semi and finals appearances. I thought I clearly said the Barbay we had was unable to do so. the conversation was clearly about the name Barbay. not our program entire coach history. scat_trap 1 Quote

I stand by that statement and I KNOW I am not alone. oh, that was one example I quoted. check out Jasper threads of their games here and at Smoaky. I am not gonna do it for you.

Quote all the threads you want but no one "quit" and Jasper fielded a formidable team and they finished strong. The Barbay "you had" did not become dumb all of a sudden, nor did they run a "Jr High type offense". Did you personally personnel the squad? What did they do at practice? What were the skill sets of each position group? Did any of the key spots/players have limitations? These are questions for which you surely have the answer? Quote

Can you read? I believe you can read the transcript where I said "he did not become dumb all of a sudden". The Jasper coaches did not quit, they worked hard, they are good coaches and the team they fielded this year was very tough. Is that enough clarity for you? You seem like a coaching expert. Is it possible the players would not do what they were told? Is it possible they could not run a different offense? Is it possible that the coaches tailored the offense/defense to the players? How many times have you put in a game plan? for Carthage? etc? Quote
Bulldogs92 Posted March 16, 2022 Report Posted March 16, 2022 Jasper lost their OC right before two-a days if I remember correctly (who went back to the Spread from the Slot/Wing T that we had been running) and that along with a lack of game breakers and physicality on offense made that side of the ball a constant sore spot for us. I don't think anybody quit. LCM was more physical on defense than they have been in years and they just beat us. End of story. 89Falcon 1 Quote
