  1. What a great season you're having and I hope you go all the way! You girls are doing a wonderful job and so are your coaches. It's been 5 years and 375 miles, but I still follow your accomplishments. Best of luck today and (hopefully) next week! - one of your former coaches
  2. Congrats Coach Bowman! Knew they picked the right man for the job. Enjoyed working with you before, maybe we can do it again some time. Take a couple of weeks off and get to work in January on the repeat...lol!
  3. not as much as you think in the smaller schools. with the state going to 4x4, the smaller schools are having to load up on math/science teachers who can teach a lot of sections. these teachers may not be able to have slots in their schedules for jh and hs athletics (1a/2a level). quite a few of the smaller schools are hurting for people to fill coaching openings due to $ and position availibility. I bet that that there are opportunities out there were non-traditional teaching role coaching, depending on where you're willing to go and what you're willing to coach.
  4. that's true. in order to coach at a public school, you just need to be a full time employee. apparently, even being a full time substitute teacher counts. UIL had to pass a rule that allowed baseball coaches who were full time substitute teachers to have the ability to continue coaching in the playoffs after the school year ended. don't know how many days you'd have to sub a week/month in order for that to work, but its apparently possible.
  5. many schools in west texas don't have volleyball :thumbsup:
  6. the revolving door spins pretty fast over at Hubbard. staff calling tree there is written in pencil.
  7. congrats on a great start to your season!
  8. congrats to bullard if the score holds out. really big win for the program!
  9. Stratford 17, Canadian 7 canadian had 5 turnovers tonight...
  10. sounds like a great deal for a special cause. wish we could come, but we're way too far away. best of luck and god bless.
  11. Congrats Ryan! BTW: How does the AD of a school district determine how Little Dribblers money would be used? Don't they have their own association and everything?
  12. a phone call shouldn't be expected. form letter would be acceptable, but would cost postage and a little bit of time. with email addresses, it wouldn't take long at all. email is free as well.
  13. best of luck Lady Panthers on your playoff run!
  14. Congrats to the Lady Panthers. I think that the last time they won district was either 94 or 95. Not only are they good athletes, but they are a bunch of good girls as well. Hope they have lots of success in the playoffs! :thumbsup:
  15. it happened back in 2004. both boys and girls teams fell in bi-district games to Spring Hill. hopefully, they'll both have good playoff runs this year! :thumbsup:
  16. 1974- Mean machine used the dropkick versus the Guards. Great Game!
  17. congrats to the lady panthers and prayers to the girl/father who got hurt. was the girl who got 20 the move in from minnesota? first tournament championship since 2002! very nice!
  18. it's going pretty good. the princess is 18 months old and standing 36" tall so we're pretty pumped about her...lol! we're returning 2 starters off of last years dc and reg. 1/4 team. 15 girls playing this year in a div II and none of them seniors..lol! we ought to hopefully go a couple of rounds in the playoffs again, but the battle for dc is going to be brutal! hopefully, we'll gain some experience this year, play a couple of weeks in february and come back loaded for bear next season. sounds like B-town is having a really good year in EVERYTHING!
  19. can't wait to hear about Bullard's success this year. all of those little basketball shooting munchkins are growing up. should be lots of good things in their future!
  20. aggie-factor= the ability to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. been watching OSU apply this in football for 40 years. in a big game, no lead is large enough for the Pokes! (especially in bedlam!)
  21. Chapel Hill (3-1) Athens (2-2) Van (2-2) Bullard (2-2) Canton (2-2) Brownsboro (1-3) with one to go, right? awesome district race! allright, start rolling out the scenarios...
