Coach Burger is a real good guy he just had too much to fight against at Edmond North to be successful. I know Dombeck had some success there, but he faced the same thing and that's why he left for Mustang, plus not having to teach 5 classes was a possibility as well. He hired me and another coach as well to come aboard with him when he first got the job, but we never got past the interview with the head principal, he thought we were not "academic" enough to teach and coach there. They want to continue to lead the state in ACT & SAT scores and compete with Jenks and Union as well in football. Doesn't surprise me. Have a buddy who coaches in district there. Text him last week he didn't respond immediately so I text him about 20 times in a row being a d!ck. He finally responds, his evaluating admin had been there for two class periods!!!!! brutal!

That's why they cannot get any good quality football coaches there. That administrator was trying too hard or being a prick to that coach and trying to nail him on his classroom procedures.

I loved my 3 years at Edmond North with Dombek! Pay was really good! Good kids and the administration wasn't out to get you. They just wanted you to take care of business. I taught Pre-AP Geometry never had an issue. Bothered me a little bit that half of the kids were smarter than I was, but oh well. LOL Edmond East, I hear, will be the Fire Dawgs by the way. I think that could be a good job for someone IMHO!

For my fellow Texans, Huntington is open. That right fellas the dream job is open. You get to work for a school that prides itself on softball and basketball. The field is an immaculate playground for gophers. I believe the best record in school history is 3-7, and have won 2 district games since the program existed. Talk every year is if they should even have a football program. Get in line.

It is. Played on their field. Pretty good facilities. I just could never go back east again. I think I'm going to remain the rest of my career, hopefully, in/around the San Antonio area.

I was told they wanted to stay with the dog theme. Huskies, Bulldogs, Wolves, and Firedogs?

Why not Mastiffs, or Terriers. Blood Hounds even. Had a place a few years back that was trying to go away from either a devil mascot or Savages. The 2nd highest vote was for the coon dogs. Yup, nothing bad could happen there.

Do you think Dombek left because he got tired of teaching 4 to 5 classes every day as HC or was it the bump in pay and getting out of the classroom at Mustang as an Asst AD?

As an assistant there in the pre-Dombek year...I taught 4 chemistry's and an anatomy class as a traveling teacher. Then at semester they switched me to 5 sections of Physics (3 different types)...I didn't know whether to wind my butt or scratch my watch! They did pay me well, though... (well, Oklahoma well, that is)
