Would Castles Go

Castles and Supe are good friends. Castles will be the next Coach

Maybe Scott Surratt is bored with winning and wants a new challenge. Just a trolling thought

The sad fact is that nomatter who a head coach is, there will always be distractors. Surratt has some in Carthage. Allen has some in Highland Park. Traylor had some in Gilmer. Most of those have never played or are living their lives through their kids.

Is there a new Supe at HS that wanted to bring own person in? Also success of softball team was probably a contributing factor in that they would go deep in the playoffs while football was not advancing as far far many years. Still, at least they made the playoffs unlike lots of others.

Kilgore is barely in line for a play-off spot as they lost to Spring Hill, Henderson and may find themselves out of the playoffs if they stumble. They are far from #2. Sabine in 3rd and Spring Hill is Second. Sharp really brought life to a moribund program and even beat an Art Briles coached Vernon team 20-14.

Do you think Marshall would do what others have done and split AD from HC. I think Kilgore and Henderson did that.

My children will be taught by their parents. Period

One thing for sure. Players like new coaches and are optimistic. The weightroom is much more structured and players say they are feeling better. Several players felt like previous regime played favorites and it showed when couple of players got conduct penalties and nothingn happened. Some athletes in the classroom are going to have to tighten up.

At FW POLY and EASTERN HILLS if you win 4-6 games that is pretty impressive because they get stuck in bad districts and that is where to go if one wants to improve 5 year average salary. It would be over 70 stacks. Desoto OC calling plays. Won state that year. Had talent. FWISD is a coaches graveyard and very little in the way of talent. Good talent leaves and goes elsewhere if they can afford it.

8 wins will get Chad Morris fired in Allen.

Well, Castles has impeccable integrity and many schools would love that record but there were some serious problems. Not much in the way of discipline, not much in the way of care for success in the entirety of the whole athletic department. Castles may be intelligent, but it is a narrowly defined intelligence. As for Robinson, the problems at Crowley had more to do with an egomaniacal head caoch. Also, there were lots of schools that they could not compete with in their district. He will be there a year and then be a Head Coach again.
