luvdgame07 Posted March 19, 2012 Report Posted March 19, 2012 tough day in Jasper, no April fools either
Spherictrey Posted March 19, 2012 Report Posted March 19, 2012 I just got word from one of the guys involved in the program that he is leaving. That's shocking after only one year. He must have gotten an offer or something.
ctowndawgfan Posted March 19, 2012 Report Posted March 19, 2012 The Administration ran him out. Really sad! He had that place headed in the right direction. Jasper will always struggle with the leadership the currently have.
Spherictrey Posted March 19, 2012 Report Posted March 19, 2012 This is kinda bumming me out. I liked coach Morgan. I felt the program was heading in the right direction and to see him leave will hurt this team because it's more change and no consistency.
Guest Fancy Posted March 19, 2012 Report Posted March 19, 2012 Why? Who's taking over? Are they looking within/outside?
Spherictrey Posted March 19, 2012 Report Posted March 19, 2012 Maybe we shouldn't pickup a coach from the Carthage area lol
Guest Fancy Posted March 19, 2012 Report Posted March 19, 2012 I don't understand. Football won district, basketball won district, soccer teams doing well, track is up and running well; won district in track last year. How in the world can they let him go?
the sports guy Posted March 19, 2012 Report Posted March 19, 2012 You would have to be a brave dude to go there.......or single.
shooter Posted March 19, 2012 Report Posted March 19, 2012 Coach Morgan's problem is, "HE didn't know how to treat people", I know this first-hand. So I don't think it is fair to blame others for his lack of professionalism. I do wish him well and I hope he has learned much from his experience at JISD.
JCfan Posted March 19, 2012 Report Posted March 19, 2012 There has to be explanation and I am sure it will come. I have heard it was his choice to leave, but you know about hearing stuff. If the administration ran him out, there is gonna be some ramifications because many in Jasper liked Morgan and saw the good that was being done. By saying "he didn't know how to treat people", I am not sure who you are referring to, but I haven't heard much of that. Is it employees or kids? If it is kids, they do not like anyone who brings discipline, but that is exactly what is needed. If the admin pushed this guy out without some real good reason, they are really wrong and better be ready to answer some angry folks questions.
AggiesAreWe Posted March 19, 2012 Report Posted March 19, 2012 Don't schedule Silsbee for the the first time since the 40's, then leave.Thanks a lot. ::)
AggiesAreWe Posted March 19, 2012 Report Posted March 19, 2012 How many AD/HC does this make for Jasper in the last 10-15 years?
JCfan Posted March 19, 2012 Report Posted March 19, 2012 Shooter, you must know something many others do not know. All most people saw in him was professionalism. There will have to be more proof than a statement like that for people to be ok with this, I promise you that much. Please understand that I am not taking any shot at you, I am just saying that many do not see it that way.
WOSgrad Posted March 19, 2012 Report Posted March 19, 2012 I had, at best, an arms length relationship with Coach Morgan, but he was always quite cordial and helpful to me. So while I can't speak to his treatment of folks in Jasper, he always "treated" me well.Good luck, Coach whereever the next chapter in your life takes you.
JCfan Posted March 19, 2012 Report Posted March 19, 2012 I just heard he got an offer he couldn't refuse. Would make more sense.

JCfan Posted March 19, 2012 Report Posted March 19, 2012 True Dat. I have heard about four different stories, as is normal. We will wait and see what is actually happening.
Spherictrey Posted March 19, 2012 Report Posted March 19, 2012 http://news.mywebpal.com/news_tool_v2.cfm?show=localnews&pnpID=974&NewsID=1014571&CategoryID=20207&on=1Heres the official story. So much confusion right now
pirateguy Posted March 19, 2012 Report Posted March 19, 2012 Superintendent saying he had no idea this was coming. Looks like Morgan did this all by himself.
AggiesAreWe Posted March 19, 2012 Report Posted March 19, 2012 With Morgan leaving and a new hire to come, that will make 4 different AD/HC for Jasper in the last 6 years.That sounds like more of an administration problem than a personnel one.
Guest Fancy Posted March 19, 2012 Report Posted March 19, 2012 What about all the assistants? He brought in almost all new guys didn't he?
Spherictrey Posted March 19, 2012 Report Posted March 19, 2012 None of this makes sense right now and it was so sudden I have to believe something is up on the inside. I can believe the Job offer thing but I would have expected a good job offer for him to come earlier rather than now.
Spherictrey Posted March 19, 2012 Report Posted March 19, 2012 I was told by a player ALL the coaches are leaving
