ETxFB299 Posted February 2, 2019 Share Posted February 2, 2019 Spring Hill has looked good the past couple of years. They had some good looking kids on the basketball team when we played them last year. They seem to be killing it on the court this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn't a transfer. His family moved into the district; however, you are correct about the 5-5 record. 12 hours ago, Valhalla said: Does the basketball coach at SH have to coach anything in football?

Mr. P Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 Spring Hill could compete for district... hell, they could compete for State. I don't care about demographics or tax base. It's totally do-able... but it won't be easy. It's gonna require some folks swallowing a whole lotta pride, some folks turning lose of "their turf," and it's gonna require a serious investment from the leadership. Step 1: find a talented coordinator from a 5A-6A Central Texas program and make him the second-highest paid AD/HC in the Longview area. Step 2: have some local business donate the funds and/or pass a bond issue for a serious facilities upgrade (focusing on football). The new scoreboard was a step in the right direction. Step 3: the admin and the community have to be all-in. That means everyone goes out for football, everyone goes out for basketball, everyone runs track, etc. All the daddy-coaches and mommy-coaches have to buy in as well. How many kids has Spring Hill sent to the MLB? NBA? Yeah, I thought so... Basically it's gonna require Spring Hill borrowing the playbook from some of the suburban programs around Austin/DFW, especially the lily-white ones that have grown from 2A to 4A+ in recent years. I've seen a few talented coaches come to Spring Hill, make some progress with one or two of the above, but unable to get all three. Impossible? Not at all. But it won;t be easy. You're gonna have to take a different tack than you have. Or just be happy with being a basketball/baseball school. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve seen them play the last 2 years. As I said earlier the cupboard is far from bare. But I disagree about a Central Texas assistant taking over. As someone who has been in this area from a long time, I have seen tons of those guys come to East Texas and fall on their face. I think a young East Texas guy is what SH needs. Traylor, Surrett, Russell, all ET boys who know how to coach ET boys. I’ve heard through the grapevine a couple of those types have thrown in their hats. I think that would be the wise way to go. My 2 cents. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dawgman Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 Kerry Strong was to good for the NBA. He got bored playing against those guys in pick up leagues. He played Jordan in a pick up game and beat him so bad Jordan went to play baseball for a year or so....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guilty on both counts. How did the Panther JV look this year? What about the junior high teams, good records? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TDtommy Posted February 4, 2019 Share Posted February 4, 2019 I think the JV was 6-4 or 5-5. The 8th grade was undefeated. The 7th grade was 5-2. The JV would have been a lot better but they played 7 sophomores and freshman on the Varsity. I know 3 sophomores started on the offensive line. One sophomore started at receiver and at corner. The freshman started some at corner and rotated at receiver. Another Sophomore started at DT. Another Sophomore played RB and LB. if all those guys had played JV they would have really tough. But they got a lot of experience on Varsity and it should really help them in the future. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
