[w-eaglespride00]

John Launius Offensive Coordinator from La Marque with a record of 11-40 as a Head Coach WOW :'( ,
after this year with out Twine make that 11-50 as a Head Coach...

[purpleeagle]

and if He has a good year you'all will be praising him..It probably wasn't easy getting someone to come to a program where the Coach only last an average of 2 years.
Support him and give the man a chance. Your school board thought he was the best selection.

He must be doing something right to go 11-3 this year, 11-4 last year, and making it to the State 4A championship game the year before.

If you are going to give facts, make sure they are accurate. Launius record as HC is more like 34-48-1. Also might want to check his high school and college career. Champions breed champions, John Outlaw taught him that. Launius will be fine, he has thick skin and just wants to coach kids.

[Scatright]

You guys hired the OC from LaMarque and you want to complain?  Hemphill should feel greatful that he wants to be there.

Good Luck to Hemphill and their new head fb coach...

yeah yall might scare him off before he accepts with all this talk :o

[w-eaglespride00]

Its a good thing to be scared to go there... :o JACK

Launius seems to me he would be a great hire. Put an offensive guru head coach in with Twine and things could get ugly.

No wonder Hemphill is a graveyard of coaches. I hope all the fans are not like you.

Good Luck to Coach Launius sounds like you are going to need it.

They just got rid of an "offensive guru". Anderson-shiro is still on the schedule, so it is possible that they could go 1-9. If the new coach does not get fired before the 8th grade class gets to varsity he will be in good shape. They are going to get 1-9 and 0-10 while they wait.

[DP70]

I just don't see Launius being another Ken Stanley or whoever their last coach was. What's so special about this 8th grade class?

[Guest]

Their 8th grade has some talent. It is kind of like your 11th grade group though they may not be on that level.

[PlayActionPass]

Launius is a heck of a coach. If anybody can turn things around in Hemphill, John can. He does have thick skin, actually that may be an understatement.

[Uncle Si]

I really don't care who it is they hire as long as it is someone that WANTS to be IN HEMPHILL and somebody that has staying power.  It scares the bejeezus outta me everytime I see 1A and 2A schools hire OC's from larger schools because most of the time those guys are just using the smaller school AD title to pad a resume and lots of times those guys don't make it past 2-3 years before they are taking advantage of the AD title to move up in the ranks and back to the larger paying jobs at larger schools.  There were several applicants for this job that live in or close to Hemphill with good resume's (proven coaches).  These guys already have roots in the area and good qualifications (none currently or recently on Hemphill staff). Not sure why they got passed over??  Hey, regardless of who it is this fellar is going to have an uphill climb and current admin at Hemphill is RUTHLESS if you don't fit into or follow their agenda, JACK!!!
