Bulldog92 Posted April 3, 2009 Author Report Posted April 3, 2009 By the way, I think Walkoviak had only one or two years at the high school level, I think maybe it was at Mathis, then he went back to Texas A&I as a graduate assistant and got his masters. He was only 28 when he came to Jasper as HC so he had not done a lot of jumping around. He coached a year or two in Coldspring before he came to Jasper, I think...

He came directly to Jasper from A&I. After Jasper he went to Rockport-Fulton for a couple years, then to Coldspring, then to Newton where he now has been for several years. I don't remember that he was at Coldspring BEFORE he went to Jasper.

Hupernikomen Posted April 4, 2009 Report Posted April 4, 2009 The idea of hiring a linebacker makes me excited I remember the good old days when Jasper had some defenses that rivaled the Chain Gang. Maybe even a year or two where ours was a better.

Maybe even a year or two where ours was a better. There were more than a few years under GW that the defense was the strength of the team and we won despite not putting up huge numbers of points. I'd love to see that kind of defense played in Jasper again...

Great Running Back Reggie Davis Great Defence Eugene Seal I remember when i little and i got a chance to shake Reggie Davis hand and that put that fire in my heart to be a Jasper Bulldog.
jimmyw Posted April 5, 2009 Report Posted April 5, 2009 Good news for the newton fans, I heard from a reliable source that W. T. has pulled his name from the list.
KFDM COOP Posted April 5, 2009 Report Posted April 5, 2009 Wednesday Night Jasper will know who the new HC is! 8)

They're just taking their time to make sure they get the right guy.
4thNshort Posted April 7, 2009 Report Posted April 7, 2009 You're telling me they are bringing in all three people for the school board meeting? This has been a fiasco hiring. It keeps getting pushed back and what they told the applicants and what has actually happened are completely different.

setxguru Posted April 8, 2009 Report Posted April 8, 2009 I know for a fact of two coaches that have turned this job down! One of these guys are in the top three and turned it down last week, and the other is in college. Regardless, this used to be a top notch job, but the "Powers that be" have royally screwed up this situation! Good luck to whoever gets this job, because you will DEFINATELY need it!!
KFDM COOP Posted April 8, 2009 Report Posted April 8, 2009 This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up Johnston said he withdrew his name from consideration.
AggiesAreWe Posted April 8, 2009 Report Posted April 8, 2009 The word I am getting from up there is the board can't come to an agreement. Jasper has kind of mishandled this hiring a bit. They have done some stringing along to a couple of canidates.
4thNshort Posted April 8, 2009 Report Posted April 8, 2009 I have heard the same thing. Not a very good job with this hire at all. You can't treat people like they have and expect for those people to still be interested in the job.
KFDM COOP Posted April 8, 2009 Report Posted April 8, 2009 All i know is someone will be hired tonight, that's all i know.
j_dog Posted April 8, 2009 Report Posted April 8, 2009 All i know is someone will be hired tonight, that's all i know. How do you know for sure? They may postpone again.
u_da_man Posted April 8, 2009 Report Posted April 8, 2009 the board should have nothing to do with it. they should accept the person put before them by the search committee. now i know how small town boards are, but the board should not be involved in the search that is not their job. but that would explain why this has taken so long.
