AggiesAreWe Posted April 11 Report Posted April 11 Silsbee head coach Joe Sigler will be retiring at the end of this school year. Silsbee is now open. I will post my thoughts and some stats later. Going to miss Joe very much. Silsbee will miss him very much. BMTSoulja1, refuse2lose, rupert3 and 1 other 2 2 Quote
noah98 Posted April 12 Report Posted April 12 There will never be another Sig. I remember him as an intern under Culley in the mid-80’s. HOF-er, Silsbee legend and future Wall of Fame inductee. AggiesAreWe and BADSANTA 2 Quote
Preach Posted April 12 Report Posted April 12 It has truly been a pleasure officiating for Coach Sigler over the years. His professionalism and integrity in the game of high school basketball were evident every time his team stepped on the court. What set him apart was not just his knowledge of the game, but the respect he consistently showed to officials—even in moments where a call was questionable, he never tried to embarrass or demean. He addressed concerns with composure and always maintained the standard of respect. Coach Sigler also went above and beyond by allowing me to come speak to his team on multiple occasions, giving insight on officiating and teaching the do’s and don’ts from a referee’s perspective. That openness to educate and bridge the gap between coaches, players, and officials is a rare and appreciated quality. Wishing Coach Sigler a happy and well-deserved retirement. Your legacy of leadership, character, and respect will continue to influence the game and those who play it for years to come. AggiesAreWe, Mr. Buddy Garrity, noah98 and 3 others 6 Quote

Tigers94 Posted Sunday at 09:36 PM Report Posted Sunday at 09:36 PM I think the younger Coach Brooks or Joubert will be in the running. Silsbee should have a really good class of kids coming in 2027 for them to start with. BADSANTA 1 Quote
ST413 Posted Tuesday at 08:47 PM Report Posted Tuesday at 08:47 PM Wow just saw this hadn’t heard this news. Hate to see him go but he deserves that retirement. Quote

BADSANTA Posted Wednesday at 10:25 PM Report Posted Wednesday at 10:25 PM Yeah things won't be the same with coach retiring. It was bound to happen. This will be his 2nd retirement. Coach Sigler has been a staple in the Silsbee community for almost 40 years. I wonder who Silsbee will bring in? Coach Jacobs Brooks and Coach Ira Brooks I hope will remain on the staff. Coach Ira Brooks has been coaching for over 30 years as well. Their both Silsbee royalty. Quote

Kountzer Posted Thursday at 11:58 AM Report Posted Thursday at 11:58 AM I knew it was coming. Coach Sigler is a class act. I hate to see him leave. But he deserves to retire and do other things, like rest. Quote

I know two coaches that will apply. Travis Williams and Tremaine Hancock. Silsbee doesn't normally hire short term. Most coaches hired at Silsbee (football, basketball, baseball HC) stay for a while. So I can't really see them promoting Ira unless it's to bridge the gap some to have Jacob take over in a couple of years. I would be fine with that. But there will be a pretty good list of coaches that will apply to choose from. I was also told that Bryant from Westwood will likely apply and bring his two star sons with him. BADSANTA 1 Quote
AggiesAreWe Posted Thursday at 02:16 PM Author Report Posted Thursday at 02:16 PM Here's an interesting stat: Since 1981, Silsbee has had just 3 head basketball coaches. Terry Culley, Joe Sigler and Travis Williams. 3 coaches in 45 years. Also in football since 1984. Silsbee has had just 3 head coaches. Charlie Woodard, Bobby McGallion and Randy Smith. 3 coaches in 41 years. That's my point of stating Silsbee hires long term and not short term. Pepper Brooks 1 Quote

Travis coming back would be great as well. Hancock is also an outstanding coach. Great family! Quote
