Hate to say it, but HD is on quite a downhill slide. There will be quite the interest I bet though especially with so many coaches out of work.[/quote]I agree with most of your post. Don't think I would say H-D is on a downhill slide. We definetly had one of our worst years ever. Missing the playoffs by going 4-6 and losing big to West Hardin, a team we have dominated forever. But let's not panic, H-D usually contends for the District Title and goes to the playoffs every year.[/quote]HD had a bad year because they don't have many good players. Talent pool is definately running a little dry. And only going to get worse I'm afraid. What needs to happen for HD is for the UIL to get rid of the big school / small school alignments and put HD back in a weak district. Sabine Pass, Burkeville, etc... I've been watching HD football for a long time they will never be what they once were. In fact, I can't think of a ''good team'' that HD has beaten in quite a few years.[/quote]So happy we got to have an expert post about H-D football. lol. Every year encluding last season, H-D has some of the best players in district on the team. Last season Chisholm Marberry, Tyler Drake and Chris Taylor were 3 of the top players in district. Heck I can think of lots of good players in just the last few years. The talent is here, we just need kids on the field, not playing playstation at home because they don't get along with the Coaches. We did not field a JV for the first time ever last season. Parents are letting their kids be lazy and not play sports, Coaches and players not getting along so the players quit. The stands are full every friday night across Texas with kids that should be on the football field.

Guest incognito123 Posted January 9, 2012 Report Posted January 9, 2012 If saving money is really the concern in Hardin, they will just promote from withing. Ronald Scott or Randy Snell would do a great job as the HC/AD. Both guys are already there, Scott is the assistant HS principal and Randy Snell coaches volleyball and softball. Don't laugh, Snell could be a greatly successful boys football coach if he chose to be. He was a great player and knows as much, if not more, about the game of football than any of the guys who will apply for this job.
football Posted January 9, 2012 Report Posted January 9, 2012 If this job is filled from within(promotion), it does not have to be posted. Even if they post it, they could say internal applicants only. Financial exigency trumps a lot of things.

I hear he is held in high esteem by many members of the community. He will definitely be a candidate.[/quote]Why would Coach Slack leave his alma mater H-D to go to Hardin? Money? More kids? H-D had no JV last season.[/quote]All of the above. Facilities, talent pool, etc. etc......Hardin has become a better job than HD. Nostalgia is a great thing, but when you compare the two....in 2011 and beyond....Hardin is the clear cut better job. Besides, Slack is starting to get the reputation as a guy who still has his job due to the fact that he is a HD graduate and his parents own the restaurant across the street. He has had no success. As a matter of fact, he has underachieved. Some of the teams he has had should've done lots more than they did. His first few years, they had enough talent to go several rounds deep in 1A, and they couldn't even get out of the first round. Now that I think about it, I'm not sure why Hardin would want him, but that is the rumor. Take it for what it's worth.[/quote] Very good points made in your post. I do agree Hardin has way better facilities hands down. Hardin's turf field is awesome. I agree Coach Slack may want to reach out and prove people wrong regarding favor to him in H-D. For the record I feel Coach Slack has done a decent job, not a great job. I do not agree that Hardin has a better talent pool than H-D. H-D has the ability to bring in athletes not just from H-D, but from Raywood, Devers and Ames. Many great athletes have come from those surrounding towns. Problem is now our Coaches don't go after players like they use to. I remember my H-D Coaches going to the homes of kids back in the day, talking with the parents and incouraging kids to play. Not these days. H-D failed to field a JV football team for the first time last season. H-D may need some new faces and new energy. The genes and tradition are still in our community. I pray our Coaches, parents and kids can come together and get these kids off the playstations and on the fields. Go Bobcats![/quote]Ames is locked by Liberty. Aside from Braxton who would have saw limited time on Liberty's junior varsity this season, any of the kids from Ames that can play go to Liberty.

None of those kids you mentioned have ever experienced better than a 3rd place finish...out of 5. None of those kids have ever beaten a "good" team. Yeah I know that they didn't field a JV...but I've heard about how HD's junior high has done last couple of years. Talent's gone pal. There's no way any kids walking the halls at HD would've made the outcome of this year any different.
