If I may ask lol We might not be talking about the same guy, Im talking about Connot from Rivercrest hes young, full of energy and won at 2 different places where no one ever wins. But I don't know what direction LE is looking or if Connot is even interested in leaving Rivercrest he may love it there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't say he would or that he even applied it was just a thought he has done a great job with lesser talent. LE said they wanted someone young, with energy. He is a North East Texas guy so Texarkana might be somewhere that would be appealing to him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jerryhawk111 Posted April 3, 2019 Share Posted April 3, 2019 I think LE needs this to be a very experienced hire. This job could be big time or could turn into disaster. Can’t swing and miss on this hire 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TexarkanaIsNotArkansas Posted April 4, 2019 Share Posted April 4, 2019 L-E begins search for Wells’ replacement Thompson indicated the dual position is posted. He emphasized there is no timeline on finding Wells’ replacement. “It’s a truly open position and we’ll be screening applicants, and moving forward with interviews,” said Thompson. “We’re going to look for the right candidate. Obviously, we want to get the right fit more than anything, and get it right. We don’t want to rush through it.” An interim will not be named. “The different head coaches know that,” added Thompson. “Certain individuals have responsibilities. We had a district track meet coming up at L-E, and there will be somebody in charge of that. Wells was the 10th head football coach at Liberty-Eylau since 1956. “Counting my student teaching, it’s been 30 years, and it’s time for a break,” concluded Wells. “The future for L-E in football looks good. I think they’re really fixing to be good. I’m proud of what we’ve accomplished at L-E.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've lived all over the state and love living in the Texarkana area. It has all the benefits of a larger town, such as any type of eating establishments one would want, lots of places to shop and all without the big city traffic. Close enough to go to great places in Arkansas and Oklahoma for weekend trips and cost of living is a lot less than the metro mess around Dallas. Guess it's different strokes for different folks. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Davis is a bit of a reach I’ll admit. Especially after what just happened Hooker just got let go, and Baysinger has had a less than successful AD career. Smackover got better when he left and QC got worse (which is saying something). Davis just got fired for not being able to literally do his job... not saying the whole list is a joke, but LE is at this point one of the best jobs open in the state. Arguably the best 4A job. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texarkana IS PRETTY NICE...traffic is great (compared to any of the metro areas or Tyler even, which is terrible in the last 10 years)...would definitely help it to be closer to DFW (by 50 miles) in many ways, but you can't move a town...BUT as for eating establishments, NO there are not ANY KIND OF TYPE OF FOOD. If you want the same Mexican food or pizza or tons of chicken places or "the steak houses" awesome, bang...and a handful of local "eateries" that are nice cool...if you've lived all over and like all types of cuisine, then NO, you have to trapse to DFW/Little Rock/Tyler <-- (sadly for this last one). Texarkana has definitely done so many things in the last 25 years to incredibly transform the town (that interstate area, near the mall, etc)...the schools (all levels)...thumbs up.

And if you're an adrenaline junkie it is constantly ranked as one of the most dangerous cities in Texas. High in violent crime rate will keep you on your toes, and on slow weeks you can stop by the Raceway on state line for your average robbery, car theft, or shooting. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PelvisPresley Posted April 5, 2019 Share Posted April 5, 2019 (edited) Just to be accurate EAST TEXAS wise (schools that we constantly mention here), per the FBI in 2018 - the most dangerous cities in TEXAS: 29. Paris 28. Center 21. Naples/Pewitt 19. Gilmer 9. Lone Star/Daingerfield 6. Texarkana 5. Cuero whether Cuero is or isn't ET, we talk about the Gobblers constantly...maybe people are killing each others turkeys? So, there ya go...straight from the kings of crime fighting! Edited April 5, 2019 by CoachPelvisPresley Sorry, my mistake I had totally brain locked on where Naples was...out there between Texarkana/Hughes Springs/Avinger/Daingerfield, etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
