ANTI Posted December 27, 2020 Share Posted December 27, 2020 1 hour ago, JohnnyFootball said: You know that King has been turning down college coaching jobs since 2003, don't you? Lol he was the OC when Pat Collins was the head coach. King turned down a D-1AA assistant job to instead become head coach at Longview. I'm sure Surratt has turned several jobs down too. For whatever reason, both are content with where they're at and the legacies they've built. This dude thinks he knows every damn thing... King could've easily been in the college ranks. He has the connections and even coached in a few of those national all star games the past few years (OL coach in Under Armour All American game last year, DL coach in Army All American game a few years back etc). Even Mathis from Desoto coached in college....but apparently King aint worthy. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some coaches like where they are. You don't think Hank Carter at LT could be in college coaching? Mathis did it and won nothing at Desoto. You got a lot to learn.

We all critique King. I've been very vocal about play calling, personnel usage and clock management over the years. Nothing wrong with criquing a coach and no one, not even Surratt, is above critiquing. No coach is perfect. Now....the conversation of wanting to fire someone who is 188-39 (94-7) with 3 state appearances and a state ring in the highest classification is sign of pure dimentia or some sort of mental illness. Its the Dallas Mavs firing Avery Johnson back in 07, is Desoto running Peterman out the door....or the Navasota situation with Fedora...its assinine. How many other none suburban 5A/6A programs have that resume the past 17 seasons. ZERO and its not even close. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Texas Rangers......... I just...... I'm not about to get started on them. They definitely didn't deserve a new stadium. And, my Oklahoma Sooners. Unlike Skip Bayless, I am not too fond of Riley Dodge these days. It's personal and has more to do with his disrespect of East Texas talent and not wanting to recruit here. I personally think it's childish in a sense where he still looks at it as a West Texas vs East Texas deal considering he's from Muleshoe, (Middle of Nowhere) Texas. Anyway, long offseason...... Uuugggggghhhh!!!!!!! Riley Dodge is the HC at SLC, I’m assuming you aren’t a fan of Lincoln Riley? And the Cowboys are gonna mess around and get in the playoffs at 7-9 and I concur Rangers... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

85lobooldschool Posted December 28, 2020 Share Posted December 28, 2020 To anyone who don't like King, you should have lived through the late 70s, 80, and 90s. It was a huge season if we made the third round. FACT Most of the time it was one or two and done. GO LOBOS the future is bright. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every aspect. Whether it's developing players from 7-12 and helping them get to the next level, or finding ways to upgrade the facilities and athletic dept. staff: dude loves to come to work every day. Could he move on to another high school or college program? Of course. I'm sure he could go back to his hometown of Springhill, La. and make them a powerhouse in short order. Or perhaps even take over his alma mater Northwestern State and make a run at the Southland Conference. But home is where the heart is, and I'd wager that King can't think of anything he'd rather do more than spending an entire career coaching those tough-ass Longview kids. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If King was going to leave Longview, it was back in 2006 when Henderson almost nabbed him. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
