Coach85 Posted February 3 Report Posted February 3 They are just starting to interview 12 candidates Monday. Not sure how many applied. Quote
purpleeagle Posted February 5 Report Posted February 5 The problem with Hemphill seems to be a major exit in high school enrollment. Snapshot number went from 273 down to 221. A drop of 52 kids. Hemphill lost their JV team in the middle of the year, had to combine with varsity. Even going to class 2A1 you need a JV program. Hopefully they have a large 8 th grade moving up. Would like to know the reason for the big drop in high school. Hemphill is a good place to live and the school has money. Hemphill just lost a good coach. Wishing my neighbor to the north the best.

Coach85 Posted February 13 Report Posted February 13 The announcement could come as early as tomorrow. Not sure about the names of the two that it came down to. Quote
TXHORN_ET Posted February 13 Report Posted February 13 I’m hearing it might be someone from Kirbyville, Newton, or a former coach from beckville. Just a guess on what I was told. Quote
TXHORN_ET Posted February 13 Report Posted February 13 I heard the name Gandy that was at beckville. I don’t know what his position was there. Quote
TXHORN_ET Posted February 13 Report Posted February 13 But then again, I could be mistaken about the name I was given. Quote

Coach85 Posted February 16 Report Posted February 16 They are voting on the approval tonight. Still haven't heard any names yet and heard this from a coach that's on staff there. Quote

purpleeagle Posted February 16 Report Posted February 16 8 hours ago, TXHORN_ET said: I heard the name Hicks from some. There was a Hicks coaching at Garrison that use to coach at Newton. Good coach and very good Christian man. I think he coached under W T Johnston. May not be the same person though. Quote
