They did not renew her contract. It is one of the dumbest things the administration at Vidor has done. Not only did she have the program headed in the right direction she was also a good coach. I enjoyed watching her coach.  >:(

I can't speak for all the kids but the majority of the kids liked Coach Arbuckle. So did her peers. She is a person you could not help but like. She just had that way about her. She is special. Good luck coach you are probably better off. Look at this way coach, maybe now you can go to a school where they(Administration) supports girls basketball and have a youth program.

Didn't the volleyball coach used to coach basketball? Is she a possibility or did they already hire someone?

The kids I know from Vidor all seemed to like playing for Coach Arbuckle.  I always liked this coach, but gained even more respect for her 2 years ago.  Two seasons ago Vidor went through the entire district season without a win.  Vidors final district game of the year was against LCM.  Vidor was down by double digits late in the 4th and Coach Arbuckle was still about 8 feet out on the court (as she usually was) coaching, teaching, and pushing her girls to get better.  This season, if Vidor would have beaten LCM in the last district game...they would have forced a "play in" game for a playoff spot.  I feel like she was turning the corner for the Vidor girls program.  Sorry to see her go.

they have the upward basketball program for basketball. there is a very active softball league. there is a soccer league i think based in orange. for volleyball, they have some summer camps...not sure about anything else. vidor just added a swim team to the high school and they have a youth swim team for the younger kids.

My point was someone said soemthing about Jr. High sports, but it's hard to learn the game when you start in 7th grade, seems the little leagues they compete in aren't really teaching  fundamentals, a coach should always REVIEW that in practice, but it's hard to teach it at that age.

The youth soccer program is an organization run by Clint Brasher and Chad LaPray.  They have several different teams...boys and girls at different ages.  They all play out of Beaumont and/or tournaments.
[/quote]my bad...i thought it was out of orange. i know that the soccer org is run the right way and the kids get great teaching. i've never been involved, but i know vidor's soccer is definitely on the upswing.

wow...i got whacked/censored. i guess no more talk about the state of girls' junior high athletics in vidor. on a side note, whoever does get the job will have a definite stud/studette? player on his/her team. the richmond girl is the shiznizzle and was only a freshman this year. she can shoot the rock and run with anybody...great athlete.

      REL actually improved this year to 6-4 which was remarkable because like you said, they had a lot of injuries and their bench was thin before that.  It’s crazy how the smallest of the 3 GCCISD High Schools finds a way to at least field a team that can hold their own but you’re right that coaching is one aspect of it.  Not that they’re a top 150 team or even close to it but if they’d lost a couple less guys there’s a real chance they could have beat Texas City and gone to at least the 1st round of playoffs this year which for GCCISD football might as well be State for how hard it is for them.   You’re spot-on about GCM and RSS coaches.  GCM coach is 2-28 over 3 years and RSS coach is 15-45 over 6.  Hard to get kids to participate in what they know from the outset is a losing proposition.  I watched the GCM/NS Game.  I was worried someone would get hurt, felt sick.  All 22 of NS starters are high level D1 Commits, QB is 19 years old, and GCM lined up a bunch of Sophomores against them, kids that aren’t even old enough to drive.     I know GCCISD wouldn’t ever do it but they really ought to stop insisting that the 3 High Schools play each other for their first 2 out of conference games.  At least let GCM out of it.  All 3 schools are in different Classifications so the wins don’t matter except for bragging rights around town and with REL winning both those games every season all it does is kill morale before the first District game is even played.  Let GCM schedule some OOC games on their level like Houston Sterling/Sam Houston/Chavez for their first 3.  That way there’s a good chance even if they lose every District game they could end up 3-7 and if they beat Channelview 4-6.  GCM having to lose to RSS and REL to start their season every year is just a killer.   You want to know why all the talent at EF Green Jr doesn’t show up at GCM?  Because that talent transfers to North Shore after 8th grade is done.  Straight-up.  They don’t care if you know either.  Those kids moms get on Facebook and brag about it.  Of course, most of those kids end up so far back on the depth chart that by Sophomore year they want to transfer back just so they can get to play at all but then you run into the eligibility thing.    Anyway, sorry for the off-topic tangent, this is a BH thread.

      They are very good. Really good shooting guard that's '6"3. Also have a do it all forward that's '6"5. He does everything for them. Score, rebound, defend. Maybe not as quick overall as those other teams, but I think they will at least make state semifinals.
