glove4x Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 I HEAR THEY OFFERED THE JOB TO KYLE GREEN TODAY BUT HE HAS NOT DECIDED TO TAKE IT YET Why would it take so long for someone to decide to coach at BC? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Orangeboy Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 I HEAR THEY OFFERED THE JOB TO KYLE GREEN TODAY BUT HE HAS NOT DECIDED TO TAKE IT YET Why would it take so long for someone to decide to coach at BC? It's called relationships. That is the hardest reason for a coach to leave a school. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
piratefan Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 I would hope Vidor would counter offer what ever they are offering him. One of the reasons it would be hard to leave is because he has done so much ,and built a quality program . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gabe Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 There is no doubt Coach Green has done wonders at Vidor. If he is to not take the BC job, nothing wrong can be said about the decision. It is a win-win situation for Coach Green. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he is to not take the BC job, nothing wrong can be said about the decision. It is a win-win situation for Coach Green. I disagree. While he would obviously inherit alot of upcoming talent, he also inherits alot of hornets that seem to always buzz just outside the nest. He's got it made in Vidor. First class facilities, first class administrators who let him run the program his way and hornets that know their place and let him do his job. I hope he thinks long and hard about giving up what he has. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gabe Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 Plus hornets fly around every sports team in our area, not just BC baseball. There are always fans in every sport ready to hang a coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stang4life Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 Perhaps, this and any other coaches pondering whether to take the BC job are coming to understand that BC had a pretty decent coach who took their baseball program to the playoffs and still it wasn't good enough. Doggone...my bad...I forgot that he didn't play a part in the that whole playoff thing for the past several years because these kids didn't need him.

glove4x Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 Since Jagneaux turned it down, and if Kyle does the same, I'm going after it. There's a clause in the hiring procedure that states those with World Series Rings need not apply. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh and BTW Gabe, maybe he shouldn't be "thinking" about it and just start praying. You can say what you want, but the parents in Vidor let the man do his job, "his" way. EVERYBODY who has a functional brain cell in their head knows that does not and will not happen in BC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

9Doggies Posted June 18, 2008 Report Share Posted June 18, 2008 Prediction, Vidor will counter Green stays and also gets a player to be named later. Why leave Vidor with all the Booster support money he's got there. He may get a car, expense account, GAS CARD, who knows but he stays in Vidor.

stang4life Posted June 18, 2008 Report Share Posted June 18, 2008 Honestly, if you look at the big picture, he may be better off staying in Vidor. I don't really know much about that situation, but if he can actually COACH without all the drama and not have the interference from outside forces (and we all know that it's not just the "fans" involved), I think he should pray about it and make the decision that's best for him. Looking at the big picture, it might be better for him to stay where he's at...I dunno. I'm sure that there are quite a few coaches that would love to take over the baseball program at BC because of it's history alone (which was enhanced with a pretty decent coach from what I can see), but when you have to take all the baggage that comes with it...the decision is not as easy.

POPSXSIX Posted June 18, 2008 Report Share Posted June 18, 2008 I do not have a dog in this hunt, but it is very interesting. I do know that at least some coaches in the area consider the Bridge City job a dead end street! Like him or not, Coach Bryant did a good job with the baseball program. There was a guy there before, Coach Young who did a super job. I think he is in Texas City now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EVERYBODY who has a functional brain cell in their head knows that does not and will not happen in BC. I would think this is the perfect opportunity for the new athletic director to take control and to change the way BC operates. Call a town meeting, tell the parents to keep their nose outta the coaches business and others that tend to jump feet first into business that they shouldn't, and if you can't abide by some sort of normality as far as high school athletics go, your kid won't be playing. I see this as a problem that somebody needs to fix. Bridge City has a terrible reputation of politics and parents/grandparents running the show how they want it and it's pretty embarrassing. Why is it allowed to continue? Just my two cents.................. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BCNatureBoy Posted June 18, 2008 Report Share Posted June 18, 2008 Coach Green couldn't raise near the funds in BC that he did in Vidor, BC has one booster club that splits all earnings between all sports. So whatever he did raise would also be used to buy soccer nets, new football uniforms, track shoes, etc. I would like to see each sport being by its self again, I've heard that schools like Jasper and Silsbee earning as much as $20,000. Now that could fix up a field, and lords knows BC could use some improvements to fix up Chuck Young Field. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest BCNatureBoy Posted June 18, 2008 Report Share Posted June 18, 2008 I do like seeing the Vidor people trying to keep their coach, it makes me think BC is about to get a real good one. :-* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ball Watcher Posted June 18, 2008 Report Share Posted June 18, 2008 Since Jagneaux turned it down, and if Kyle does the same, I'm going after it. Was Jagneaux offered the job? Technically to turn it down, you must first be offered it. Didn't know if it got that far with him. I would think this is the perfect opportunity for the new athletic director to take control and to change the way BC operates. Call a town meeting, tell the parents to keep their nose outta the coaches business and others that tend to jump feet first into business that they shouldn't, and if you can't abide by some sort of normality as far as high school athletics go, your kid won't be playing.

Why is it allowed to continue? Just my two cents.................. Maybe the new athletic director has to answer to the group that is really calling the shots in BC. Parents & grandparents change every few years so are they also groomed through little league to run the show at the high school? Or is the entire town just 'kin' to each other?
