PdaddyBball Posted June 29, 2022 Report Share Posted June 29, 2022 Smith can help do something in Hardin America. He will have them in playoffs within 3 years. Give him time to implement his system and get his guys in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted August 2, 2022 Report Share Posted August 2, 2022 Who will be the kid under center for those Hornets this year ? Did they have any senior leadership coming back? I am happy for Coach Smith and can't wait to hear good things about those Hornets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think about it, Hardin has not hired an unfamiliar coach since Tod Stark, and that lasted about half a season. Haynes has been hired twice and Barrier has family all over the school, both teachers and students. This has traditionally been Hardin's Achilles heel. Even when they have gotten promising coaches to take the job, the community, parents and school board can't get out of the way long enough to give the guy a chance. I saw this announcement on Twitter last night, and there is a ton of positive energy around Coach Smith from many txhsfb coaches throughout the state. This leads me to believe they may have gotten a real good one with this hire. Those in Hardin need to stand down for a couple of years and let him work. If you will let him bring his own staff and let him lay the foundations of a program from the 7th grade on up, you might just have a chance to improve your program. Only time will tell.... I thought Stark was at Hardin for 1.5 years before he quit the kids? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did he quit? yes. Was he run out of town by out of control adults? also yes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The change.org petitions are still out there, full of players signing and justifying the signing by saying they wanted him to stay. An out of control school board member pushed him out because they wanted Haynes back in Hardin. Texasdude281 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, the only thing that's fact is that you seemingly don't know any of the details to which his contract ended. Since that's the case, it'd probably be wise to not act as if you do.

Im' sorry Hardin expert. You know what you've been told, just like I know what I've been told. Cry louder for the people in the back.

There's no justification for his actions. None. He wasn't fired or reassigned. He quit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would never claim to know what is fact on a situation I wasn’t involved with. Cry louder? Yeah.. ok. You’re seemingly butthurt about it. Ex player? Parent? Sounds to me like he dodged an enormous bullet by getting out of there. No matter the details as to how. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
