[no-look]

Heard that they hired one of their assistant  football coaches (no varsity experience)for the head basketball job................HJ might have to knock someone else out next year... ;D

Typical football school mentality.  They hired a guy whose main experience as a coach was in powerlifting.
They had a chance to hire back the last coach that took them to a state title in 1991 but settled for the above.

I can understand wanting to build a football program, but not at the expense of the basketball program. I wish the guy well. If they have a losing season it really wont be his fault.........

I heard the guy they hired used to be an assistant in Georgetown.  Must know a little about basketball.  5A programs normally have guys that know basketball as their assistants, especially in Georgetown.  The ex-AD for HF used to be an assistant at Brenham, and I heard he could really coach some round ball.  Give them the benefit of the doubt.  Just because he wasn't currently coaching it doesn't mean  that he can't.

I don't like what I see coming from this AD.  The coach mentioned above that was interested in coming back was my coach, and he was a heck of a coach!  I promise if he had been there Navasota wouldn't have lost to Hardin-Jefferson the last 4 years...

Phil Jackson is an inherent of coaching the best player(s) in the NBA, controls egos well...until I see him coach a team like Greg Pop then...but that's a different subject.  Be realistic though.  PJ would retire if he had to coach HJ.
