BEASTeastTX Posted March 27, 2023 Share Posted March 27, 2023 Good facilities, Decent location, not too bad of a gig for someone looking for a shot? They are in a pretty tough district and took some lumps. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New guy would need time to develop and hope to have a good class come through and stay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blesseddaily Posted March 28, 2023 Share Posted March 28, 2023 Extremely tough gig. Guess it would be a way to get your first AD job but as far as building a program??? Don't think so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bonecrushr Posted March 30, 2023 Share Posted March 30, 2023 In that district Crawford/Marlin/Riesel have been the top dogs last couple years. Bosqueville, Moody, Rosebud-Lott, Valley Mills - meh. BV is trying to rebuild, but if they get it turned around may not be in BE's district by then. I don't consider the current district a super tough one, but not cupcake level either, probably average IMO. BE is on I35 south of Waco, nice rural area, but IMO difficult to attract any talent that doesn't live there already. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd say facilities are decent. not necessarily good. Then again, I'm a BV guy so I probably shouldn't throw stones lol.

BillyClydePuckett Posted April 20, 2023 Share Posted April 20, 2023 For every school like this that has been everyone's Homecoming Date since forever I will remind you that Stephenville and Lake Travis (just to name two) were doormats for decades until the right person took the job there. Stuff changes... If you want a shot sometimes you gotta take a chance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've had a couple decent runs over the years, but while my kids were in school really only one year where they gave us a real fight. They're in between Waco & Killeen/Temple/Belton. Most of the talent in this area is in those two locations as opposed to BE. BE has to do the best with what they got. Quality coaching will def help, but I don't know if they will have an answer for powerhouse teams like Crawford and teams like BV, Marlin, Riesel (district teams) who aren't perennial powerhouses but have good talent and can have several years of decent playoff runs. Folk might point to a team like Mart who is rural and still goes super deep almost every year. My answer is besides coaching, it's the culture. Those kids have the winners' mentality drilled into them from day one of youth football. Something like that is possible at BE, but it would take a long time. Gotta put together a few winning seasons first, give the kids and the community a taste of what it's like to be one of the big boys. Then build on that. I wish the new guy luck. An additional winning 2AD1 team in this area would help raise the overall level of competition for all. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
