Coach Of The Year?? Not Including Playoffs

[Richard]

Coach Nelson of the Splendora Wildcats 10 - 0 district record over the last two years.  Back to Back undefeated District Champs.

First of all, I want everyone to know that the following is strictly MY opinion, no one else has to share it with me.

I think Coach Alvarez has done a fine job with K'ville, but he was picked to win district and he did not, so he does not deserve COTY.  Coach Brooks also has done a fine job turning Jasper around, but he, too, did not win district.  Coach Hooks was NOT picked to win district and he did.

22-4A:  That is a tough call.  It was a three-way tie, but Lumberton wasn't expected to win and they did.  I'd have to go with Credeur, or either a co-COTY.

Coach Morgan of Buna,  9-1 this year

I like the job that Coach Hodges from Kountze has done, what a turn around.

  Alvin Credeur not only has great coaching abilities , he is a great leader . During the 8th grade season 2003 ,well into an undefeated record. ( another first for Lumberton )  . Some of the players grades were slipping , so he made the entire team go to tutorials instead of practicing until all the grades came up . That is character .

They finished the season undefeated , and I personally feel it was that team sacrifice that bonded them as a team .  Now Credeur's Raiders  are in the playoffs .

[BigMoneyTexan]

I think Creuder (Lumberton) and Long (kelly) should be co-coach of the year

Riddle me this, Batman: Exactly WHO decides COTY anyway?? Someone told me tonight that this had already been decided, back in August or September, and apparently it isn't Coach Credeur.

No, I don't always believe everything I hear - or read, so I'm just asking. Who decides? What is the criteria? When do "they" decide?

Inquiring minds want to know.

21-5A made their selection yesterday if that helps any.

There is a coaches pick for all district. The coaches get together and vote on the players and the coach of the year. The the local paper has a super team and coach of the year. Both come out after the teams or out of the playoffs. I put alot of stock in the coaches pick.The paper is sometimes bias for the local teams they cover. During the coaches picks,the coaches can nominate the players that they think or worthy but can't vote for any players from thier teams. They also vote on a coach of the year but the coaches can't nomnate or vote for themselves. I think 224A coaches voted last week.

this is exactly how it works and I agree with everything you said

Credeur has got to be the pick..........NO ONE picked the Raiders to win 4-5 games at the begining............. 'Nuff said

But, Coach Haynes at Hardin, deserves a vote, too..........I played for him, and I know his genius............  G-J, Coach Haynes.......

[Cardinal Supporter]

I have to go with Matt Burnette. He changed his offense when he needed to and won a co-district championship. And also rememeber people wanted his head after the first two games.

[newtonkicker112004]

dang thats wired not the first person has thought of tha big man barbay over in the corner in newton gr8 coach and friend year in and year out this man knows his stuff

[lhssr75]

Barbay & Hooks?  Maybe coach of the century.  It seems like they've been here that long and have been producing winners the whole time.  COTY should go to the guy who has improved his team the most for that year.  Credeur, hands down.

Jack Alvarez - Kirbyville (11-2)

Has built little ol' Kirbyville into an outstanding program.

He does more with less every year.

One of the smallest 3A's in Texas.

He deserves some credit for what he's done.

[McLovin]

If you love him so much, why don't you marry him?

lets keep it clean on this web site.....

;D

[SuperflySnuka]

Are you kidding. I know many teams that wish they had LESS like he does???? Hahahahaha. Coach Alvarez is a good coach but , he by no means has less talent than those he plays!!! Rhodes, Jackson????? Yeah, they are average??? hahahaha

No, are you kidding?  I'm not just talking about talent but also shear numbers.  Jasper, Silsbee, WOS all have kids who have signed D1 over the last three seasons.  How many D1 players has Kirbyville had over the last three years?  Let me tell you.  ZERO    WOS, Jasper and Silsbee always has a bigger collection of talented athletes and linemen than Kirbyville.  Yet, Coach Alvarez has still beaten Jasper and finally beat Silsbee this year.   Kirbyville HAS to play their players both ways and many times in all three phases.   Coach Alvarez does more with LESS every year.
