AggiesAreWe Posted December 16, 2009 Report Posted December 16, 2009 Is this based on his performance as a coach, or is there other issues involved?
HoopInsider_Cooper Posted December 16, 2009 Author Report Posted December 16, 2009 [font=Courier]Working on that now AAW.[/font]
shorttexas1 Posted December 16, 2009 Report Posted December 16, 2009 Thank you coach for the years you have put in at the school and for staying above .500. I wish the best for you and your family.

I brought this up earlier this year on this site but it was dismissed. I am shocked it happen in the middle of the season. God Bless to him and his family!!!!!

HoopInsider_Cooper Posted December 16, 2009 Author Report Posted December 16, 2009 [font=Courier]Hopefully they will give Frankie Paul a shot.[/font]

HoopInsider_Cooper Posted December 16, 2009 Author Report Posted December 16, 2009 [font=Courier]Coach Rice will be meeting with BISD supt. Carroll Thomas shortly....Will update after that meeting. [/font]
swagg Posted December 16, 2009 Report Posted December 16, 2009 I'm thinking Coach Joubert. He would be a Young Boutee like at Central. He would put Jag basketball back in the map. I hope he gets a shot!!

swagg Posted December 16, 2009 Report Posted December 16, 2009 If central offers I guarantee he gone. Why wouldn't he? He's proven himself in 2a. Going 4a is a great idea

[/quote]No way he leaves KOUNTZE.[/quote]I wouldn't say that. BISD could offer him a much bigger salary than the one at Kountze.
Lazeek Posted December 16, 2009 Report Posted December 16, 2009 What are the odds of all three BISD head hoops positions being open at the end of the year?
HoopInsider_Cooper Posted December 16, 2009 Author Report Posted December 16, 2009 [font=Courier]They did want him. Wanted Travis too.[/font]
HoopInsider_Cooper Posted December 16, 2009 Author Report Posted December 16, 2009 [font=Courier]I'd say decent. Ozen is young but the fans are already restless. The other needs to be replaced.[/font]
BMTSoulja1 Posted December 16, 2009 Report Posted December 16, 2009 AAW, I don't think it would be about the Money. Coaches just want to win.. I think the Kountze coach would be a good fit for Central. I agree with giving Franklin Paul a shot. Also, consider Edward Garret a shot. Both are Central alum and are young coaches...
NHS83LU87 Posted December 16, 2009 Report Posted December 16, 2009 I hate it for Coach Rice. I always thought he handled himself with class. Kountze has been a springboard for a lot of coaches in the area......wouldn't be surprised to see it again.
shorttexas1 Posted December 16, 2009 Report Posted December 16, 2009 I am not sure about Paul, Garrett has alot of basketball knowledge but he is young. I don't know what direction they will go but I hope it wiorks out for them!

Bucof2010 Posted December 17, 2009 Report Posted December 17, 2009 Central could potentially be a 4a Ktz so why wouldnt he leave
HoopInsider_Cooper Posted December 17, 2009 Author Report Posted December 17, 2009 [font=Courier]They both wanted the job. Travis applied and interviewed.[/font]
