Alexander has been the AD/Football Coach at Harleton since 2002, and replaces Chuck Griffin who resigned earlier this month to take a job in Alabama.

Troup I.S.D. superintendent Dr. Marvin Beatty told Smoak, "I don't know about any of the speculation, but, I do know one thing, we've interviewed some candidates, but we haven't completed the 10-day window that ends on Monday."

Alexander has an overall record of 323-126-11 and won two state championships at Daingerfield in 1983 and 1985. He's also been a head coach at (Daingerfield), Hughes Springs, and Henderson.

So a defense like ours (which has better points avg per game at 7.8 in the single digits by the way) and better team speed on defense than Winny has on defense, isn't even close to being on Winny's level on offense (54.9 avg per game)but you guys think that y'alls defense (11.8 avg per game) is gonna stop Koff (52.9 avg per game, 2 points difference) completely. Got it. Makes sense now. We don't have a chance at all. Panther sealed the deal on the other thread with coaching, so there's that. I've mentioned why I think y'alls defense can't but still gets deflected. 

Hook, line & sinker….

Why would we doubt a defense that had given up only 4 more points than you guys?

Yep, heard the same from Silsbee folks. They are singing a different tune now. I guess we will see soon enough.  

You’ll need far more than that slot/wing stuff.  Preston’s D will eat it up

Silsbee has talked more smack through the years but never does anything.  I think they’ve made it past area twice in the 15 years I’ve paid attention to them.  They play break predistrict, their district has typically been average except for a few years, and then they get their balloon deflated in the first two rounds of the playoffs. 
 

Don’t forget to list all the D1 talent they had so I can check it out.
