Must not have been a ‘yes’ if another call was made today. I take it this visit was from the unnamed undecided.

I don’t blame them.  Who wants to take the job, move down, take out a $700k mortgage, just to get bounced out of the job 3 years later?

I’m not a BH guy. I literally couldn’t have told you the coach’s name until he left. I just know they have got a good base of kids and solid facilities, a lot of money, and a lot of growth. They’ve got a lot of obvious problems and their leadership is an embarrassing dumpster fire, but I still think they’ll be competitive in less than 5 years after joining 6A. We’re talking 6 to 7 years from now. A LOT can change in way less time.  

Embarrassing dumpster fire? Y’all have to stop believing everything that the uniformed and people that love to see BH fail. I expected better from a PNG supporter

OMG a father protecting his son. What a bastard. Not saying what he did was the right thing to do, but can’t say I wouldn’t have done the same. 

[OlDawg]

Turning back to the open AD/HC position—and asking BH fans—do y’all think the job is tougher since the Super is an ex State Champ player, then a district winning AD/HC himself?

Could there be an undue amount of pressure on the position?

Just seems a lot of turnover of really qualified coaches since this Super has been at BHISD.

Question isn’t meant to be derogatory. Honest question.

Damn, I sure struck a nerve!  Now who was it that fought all the way to the State Supreme Court over haircuts?  Have fun in 23-6A in '26!  I know your opponents will!

It was the outside activist that took it. BH defended itself against the stupid racist attack, and BH won convincingly. 

Sorry your head is so full of race! Ours are not.

Enough of the Baytown vs, Barbers Hill talk.

Keep it to the topic of Barbers Hill AD/HC open.

Its really enough of all the racial slurs against BH. This sorry, stupid thing is OLD. 

Why are they still allowed here? When is enough, enough?

Well, that would be a first for all! LOL

I would imagine Poole is very competative and its hard to imagine that the competitivness does not drive him to reach the highest results possible. Of course it can go too far and cause an unintended result. Lets give him and BH a chance to get the replacement secured, and then go from there. Otherwise lets give him some credit on the outstanding academic achievements BH is known for. Its not an accident. THAT is what ultimately matters the most. Life >>> Football.

Methinks he doth protest too much!

Arent we supposed to be getting back on the subject of the thread?  Why you bringing up old comments from before that?  You gotta get that out of your head, sorry you got triggered!  Guess that truth really hurt you.

I think the turn over has a lot to do with coaches looking for that final paycheck to sunset them into retirement more tan the Sup. These coaches have already built their pedigree and cashing in on it IMO and don’t blame them.  At least I feel that is what Gage and Westerburg did not sure about Abseck , but when his son graduated with him in Cedar Park I think so did he. If BH hires another coach just looking for that pedigree I think we see the same result. BH needs to find a coach that has had some success with a young family. Will that work who knows

There might be something to that.  Retirement is based on last 3 years salary, right?

Abseck was planning on staying there long term.  He bought a huge place in Plantation after his first season there so he was setting down roots.  You may be right about the guys before, though.

[Mr. Buddy Garrity]

Has anyone calculated the age of the HFC when they start as HFC there? 

How old was Gage when he started there?

How old was TW when he started there? 

How old was Abseck when he started there? 

 

Throw in Price too: how old was he?

I can see some of that. But, my understanding is the last two AD/HC’s didn’t leave of their own accord, and one (Westerberg) took another AD position with—presumably—decent pay fairly quickly thereafter. The other hasn’t had a chance yet. So, not sure that’s the full story. To me, there’s something else going on also. JMHO

BHISD was successful & rated highly before he arrived, and will continue after he’s gone as long as the City Planners, Council, Mayor, Manager set criteria for new homes to start in the range they start now & above. That limits the people that can afford to live in the area & is a subtle—often forgotten/unknown—way of selectively keeping a community a certain economic/demographic level.

Well known that parents of better means have children that perform better scholastically.

Well, 4 coaches in 12 years haven’t got you past 2nd round of playoffs.  Guess none of those guys were the right guy?  Man yall LOVED Coach Abseck until last weekend when the news broke.  So much for loyalty on The Hill.

Says who? You obviously arent from around the Hill, Abseck and his family rubbed a lot of people the wrong way. Once again you don't know what you are talking about. You are trying to make drama but you have enough to deal with at GCM. Worry about that dumpster fire.

In bold: that isn't the 1st or 2nd or 3rd time that's been said on this site.

Anyone have an actual explanation of how???

LOL. You have no clue. The guy probably made a killing selling his house in Cedar Park when it exploded, you don't have a first inkling of knowledge to know if he has a mortgage. On top of that, if he sells his house now in BH he will probably make another killing.  Obsession noted.

Your superintendent just drove off a good coach and is effectively drunk texting “you up?” to coaches to find a new one. “Embarrassing” is an understatement. 

[Matthew328]

Abseck isnt close to retirement he's applied for a few jobs already, he's not close to being done....Westerberg and Gage were definitely at or on the brink of retirement.

The guy in the mix right now is younger than Abseck....he hasn't said no, but he hasn't said yes either

Are you able to give a location like where he is from DFW area, Houston Area, Central Texas area etc…?

How interesting it would be if Abseck got the Lufkin job & wound up competing in 9-5A again…🤔🤨

He wont be at Lufkin. He isn't one of the finalists from what I've seen.
