I think that's rather presumptuous considering their record is 9-30 since 2018. I will make no guarantees regarding their future football success as I know nothing about HJ's talent concerning their up and coming youth. However, I will guarantee you this, those kids and the parents there, of course except the few whose kid doesn't get to play that are always mad at everyone, will love him and love playing for him. He is a great person and great coach to help kids become young men. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The rubric is only pass/fail, and you must win a state championship in 7 years or you have failed. KF89 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah, that makes more sense!!! I do remember now that there was a person on the Tarkington thread who kept gauging coaching success on strictly overall records and state titles. That's my bad, sometimes sarcasm is hard to read... bullets13 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't shoot the messenger, just re-stating some posts that the gauge of success that separates the average coaches from the elite head football coaches when a school makes a new hire. Being a great person, having many coaching friends, loved by all & a nice guy looks good on a resume but winning state titles is what turns boys into real men😬 BEARCPA 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would love to see them with a winning record. HJ had a good run a few years back, but HJ has never been known for their football dominance. Lets start with a winning season and some playoff games. But State??? He doesn't have to win State to be considered a winner in Sour Lake. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He doesn't have to win State to be considered a winner in Sour Lake. It seems you did not get the Reagan Head Coach\AD hiring memo that's been discussed the last few months on each coaching vacancy. Because if expectations at H.J. with the Bass hire is not winning a state title & just wanting a winning season, some playoff wins within 7 years this hiring is a terrible failure from day 1. Also in the memo is rule #2 "Do not hire a guy who says he knows how to win, but has a losing career coaching record" navydawg31 and bullets13 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I find that hard to believe… as much growth as Lumberton has had still not 5A. BC still in 4A Div 2, Orangefield goes back and forth between 4A and 3A. HF still in 4A Div 2 and all these area have had significant growth and new housing development within the last 12 years or so. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lumberton growth demographics show a lot of younger families with younger kids in some of the newer subdivisions while other newer subdivisions indicate older demographics that have retired or kids are college aged. They will eventually hit high school in a few years and thus thrust Lumberton back into 5A. KF89 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
