Runs shotgun RPO This is how rumors spread and wrong info gets out, lol. There are so many things incorrect with this post, I don’t know where to begin. This is like getting in a circle and whispering the same message in everyone’s ear all the way around the room and you were the last person to get the secret. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LarryBird33 Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 I’m just going off info I was told by a few relevant people. He coached Litty at Calvary and got him to a D1 school. Best of luck on y’alls search I hope it’s better than Waskom’s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LarryBird33 Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 Beckville or Timpson coach would be two good hires if they wanted to leave for more money. But Beckville is pretty stacked for years to come unless they get plucked away by Tatum and Carthage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LarryBird33 Posted February 4, 2022 Share Posted February 4, 2022 With that coach I’m sure they do, Keeling will keep athletes in Tatum. You’re getting a future all state center and possibly all state qb as well coming to the dirty birds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he was interested in leaving Beckville for more money that would have been the job to go after, seeing how it’s his alma mater. I don’t see Coach T leaving Timpson for anything short of retirement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stuff like calling an orange and white football team the Yellowjackets is the primary reason this country is going to hell in a hand basket.

ArmchairOC Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 Heard a former EF HC/AD withdrew his name and was potentially the “home run” candidate. Other than that three current Louisiana coaches with East Texas ties who either also withdrew or were turned down by board. Heard there was early clamor for another former EF coach with some decent support but Sup balked because he would have been a retire/rehire (currently at Hallsville). Seems like the board/community and the Sup have different opinions that aren’t quite matching up. This search has gone on for a long time, interesting to see how it ends at this point.

Seems like the board/community and the Sup have different opinions that aren’t quite matching up. This search has gone on for a long time, interesting to see how it ends at this point. The homerun hire was a LA coach that pulled his name cause he couldn’t get answers or communication from the superintendent. The former EF coach pulled his name also but he was max, the number 2 choice. The board is just as in the dark as this message board. Only the superintendent and probably one of his friends, a former board member, knows what’s going on. No one knows but those 2 and coaches that have been contacted. The superintendent will not hire a retiree. Rumor was Ford tried to get the coach you are referring to on staff a few years ago and the superintendent shot it down. Until the superintendent at EF is replaced, this is how things will go. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ArmchairOC Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 Sounds like I got my home runs mixed up, but wasn’t far off. Seems like the answer is simple then but would cost the district a heavy severance package. Unfortunate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eagle1986 Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 EF non dist schedule is Shelbyville, Beckville, Atlanta and DeKalb(not sure the order), retiring HC did a great job getting this schedule for the kids and future coach to have some early success 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LarryBird33 Posted February 5, 2022 Share Posted February 5, 2022 Deberry Jacket and Jacket52 I wish y’all the best of luck. The LA coach would’ve been a good one. Is Chapman keeping everyone in the dark because he has his own candidate picked out. Hopefully yalls coach will be able to start before July 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
