Wildcatter Posted March 3, 2011 Report Posted March 3, 2011 Do you think Ira will be looking at this one?

shooter Posted March 3, 2011 Report Posted March 3, 2011 The boys and girls basketball jobs are now posted on the THSCA web.
Mr. Buddy Garrity Posted March 4, 2011 Report Posted March 4, 2011 I think a certain person from Silsbee will get it
whsalum Posted March 4, 2011 Report Posted March 4, 2011 Ira would do a good job but it's not like the cupboards are full in Fannett.A really good coach could have a sub 500 season there unless Vidor made out the schedule ::) ::)
Lazeek Posted March 4, 2011 Author Report Posted March 4, 2011 I disagree with you WHSAlum...........really some pretty good kids returning for HF. Plus their 8th and 9th grade teams are very good. Tons of potential there for the Horns!!!I fully expect a well respected Assistant from SE Texas to get this job!!!! ;) ;) ;)
whsalum Posted March 4, 2011 Report Posted March 4, 2011 Not saying there aren't some pretty good returning players and I have no doubt that Coach Brooks would do a really good job, that being said they are in a 6 team district that has HJ,Silsbee,WOS,Orangefield and BC. If they win the games they should win they would be 4-6.The swing spot in this race would be WOS and I like there young coach to really make an impact there.Who else would you see them beating???
Lazeek Posted March 4, 2011 Author Report Posted March 4, 2011 Not expecting any overnight success stories......give them a year or two. To answer your question though, they did play Silsbee to within 8 points this year and played HJ tough at HJ. They would beat OF and BC for sure next year and would contend with WOS for that 3rd spot. Tons of talent at HF!!! If you build it they will come, if not they will all leave!!! ;D ;D
whsalum Posted March 4, 2011 Report Posted March 4, 2011 I agree with that assessment so if they beat Orangefield and BC and split with WOS record would be 5-5.I may be wrong but I don't see them beating Silsbee or HJ in the foreseable future.
Wildcatter Posted March 4, 2011 Report Posted March 4, 2011 In our loss to them we just beat ourselves.
underarmor Posted March 4, 2011 Report Posted March 4, 2011 are you sure they are looking for a new girls coach too

killingmesmalls Posted March 4, 2011 Report Posted March 4, 2011 I can't wait to see the list of applicants for this job! I would also like to see the "New Coach's" take on the AD's formula of success through lifting weights, especially on game days ;D I am sure there will be more news coming from the "coaches", I mean parents from Longhorn country on the new hire...
FanintheStands Posted March 4, 2011 Report Posted March 4, 2011 So, let me get this straight.The football coach "leads" the Longhorns to an 0-10 season (or were they just winless in district?), while the basketball coach's team has a respectable year - the first respectable year in a LONG time...... and its the basketball coach that gets let go?!?!?!?!?!
AggiesAreWe Posted March 4, 2011 Report Posted March 4, 2011 [quote name="Bobcat05" post="977148" timestamp="1299210374"]The girls coach was there one year!! ::)[/quote]That was just a temporary situation. He came out of retirement to coach just this one year. He was just a part time employee with the school district. They are now searching for a full time coach/educator.
Bobcat1 Posted March 4, 2011 Report Posted March 4, 2011 Whoever gets the girls job has a lot of talent to work with.

I don't. This team was much better than I expected and I think others will agree. Pre district Wins over Deweyville, Buna, Evadale, Sabine Pass, Tarkington, Orangefield, etc. Expect the best and the results will show. Nederland basketball is a perfect example. English has a passion for the game. Look what his passion for the game has brought to Nederland. Results and school pride in basketball.
