Solid hire by BISD. It was time to inject some youth into there football programs. As always they have some talented kids who need to be taught updated schemes to maximize their true potential. As previously stated, the true test will be how much Admin works with him to bring in some new ideas on the coaching staff. Hard to turn a program around when HCs are only allowed to bring in new coordinators.

One thing I do like about the hire is Ron Jackson finally hired some youth! Because before this hire it seemed as if he had thing for hiring old coaches lol

But Dre is a good dude & should bring a lot of excitement into the program, however he’s already been told by Ron Jackson that he can’t get rid of the entire staff apparently because the current coaches have family, kids & homes in the Beaumont.
 

He can only bring in coordinators, which makes zero sense. He’s definitely fighting an uphill battle because the admin is clueless as to what it takes to have a success athletics/football program. Also he’s going to be hard pressed to find good quality coaches to come from Austin, SA, Houston etc to come take pay cuts in Beaumont.

Hopefully Coach Williams can talk BISD into taking the proper steps to be more conducive to a successful football program. I hear that the coaches at United and WB have been handcuffed for quite some time.

Is this the first United head coach who wasn’t a former coach at one of the Beaumont schools?

You hit the nail on head! They only care about basketball and how can we do things on the cheap! Emphasize the cheap!

No Graham never coached at any of the schools either

What a joke. Part of the risk of coaching is losing your job.

there s no way I would take a job like that without bringing in my own staff.  Surprised the guy took the job…..resume builder🤔or resume flaw🤔
 

bisd failed again

Firing and hiring coaches puts too much paperwork on office staff in their eyes.  They want as least work as possible

Well could be bisd having trouble filling positions “so let’s not get rid of people since we have them”

Word is it’s because Ron Jackson said that the current coaches have homes & families in Beaumont. But if it’s me I would let the coaches know on the current staff that they can keep their teaching position they just won’t be coaching. Pretty simple honestly

Isn't that the case with just about every school who gets a new head coach?

Doesn't seem to stop most of the others from getting new staffs.

Exactly lol I don’t get it…but things like this is also why I advise coaches I know to stay away from jobs like this.

Bringing in a different figure head & not changing anything else will only result in the exact same results from the previous regime. Not sure how people in the community don’t  understand this. 
 

Beaumont is missing two key things that every successful football program has: Proper Infrastructure from Admin to be successful & most importantly TALENT!
