I bet he will just be HC while Supt remains AD.
O'Connor actually used to work for Huey, he was an assistant on his staff in the mid/late '90's. How does Chancellor do things? The right way. If you dont buy in to what he is trying to accomplish, you will be miserable. If you buy in, you will succeed. He is everything you want in a Texas high school football coach. Tough, hard nosed, intense, old school, smart, etc. Some people didn't like him. It happens at every school across the country. It's usually the kids who caused problems, didn't take care of business, didn't work hard, or just flat out weren't good enough to play. Or, of course, parents who think their kids should play but didn't. Most of Bellville was upset that we lost him. I will tell you this, if he can get Kirk Collier (OC at Columbus), and Jamie Valentine (recently fired HC of Needville) to join him at Edna, watch out. Those 2 guys are some of the sharpest offensive & defensive minds in the state.
Also, if O'Connor has operated that way before, it is because he was holding all of the cards.
That was not the case here. They had to sell Huey on the job, not the other way around.
No pun intended.
Huey is a good one, congrats to Edna if this happens...
What is interesting to me is one reason he is coming (according to someone very close to the process) is because of O'Connor. But if you listen to Snotbubbles or Teetle, they'll say no coach in their right mind would work for O'Connor.
I think I'll go with Coach Chancellor on this one. He is not coming to Edna because he is desperate, he is coming because he thinks it is a good job.
I think we've got us a heck of a coach.
All right, now, I don't want them to gain another yard! You blitz... all... night! If they cross the line of scrimmage, I'm gonna take every last one of you out! You make sure they remember, forever, the night they played the Cowboys!
