Mangham HS needs a new head coach also. JBIII might like a challenge for $25000.00 a year......or maybe not.
Now what has happened to RHS since the 80s and early 90s is a true tesiment to how much a coach means to a winning tradition. Chick was the best.
Slau,
I have heard rumblings of support for John Carr. Have you heard this?

I hated we let pender go, he has won every where he has been but wasn't given much of a chance there. He must have made someone mad and they got him fired. (See baseball thread ie Haddox)
Gooddawg,
John has not been a head coach in the high school ranks but I would expect that to change in the near future. He is currently the OC at Neville and has really done a good job there. Also why not consider Brad laird for the head job at RHS, he is currently the DC at Northwestern State and has worked on the staff of 3 great coaches ( Collins, Goodwin and Billy Laird) Also Pender was a disappointment leading my beloved cats to an 0-9 record. Great players and no motivational skills.

Jetstorm,
Most class-A JV teams would have slapped Cedar Creek around. If Vic Dalrymple had the talent Mangham has had for the last 4 years, he would not lose a game. John Nash and Jonathan Holland now on the Tech lineup came from those teams.
Maybe Vic would take the Tech job?
I remember playing against John Nash a few years ago. He was a BAD MAN! Even today I see him on the tube occassionally, in the line-up for Tech at linebacker (middle, I think?). He laid the lumber back then and he does the same now.
Whatever happened to ol' Jay Roy Mount, who took you guys to the 'Dome back in '95? I assume that Alan Ensminger guy, who used to coach at Delhi, is still at Mangham. I was never impressed with him. He did the same thing at Delhi; take teams with incredible talent and underachieve with them.
Alas, what you say about the Cougars is true. What can I say, it's a rebuilding year. But we have lost at least two games we should have won, and I think we can still finish 5-5 if we play hard, and maybe sneak into the playoffs. Probably won't do much when we get there though.
Jay Roy went to a AA school in S. LA( Pickins or Pickett?) when he left Mangham. I had heard he was in TX for a time, but I can't say for sure. The coach that took Mangham to the Dome was Moose Munyan. Jay Roy was the head coach, but he spent many hours at the retired Coach Munyan's house getting suggestions and learning.
Ensminger is the guy at Mangham now. He is happy to win just enough to keep his job(1st round of the playoffs), but refuses to put out the effort to consistantly win. Boy, that ought to sound familiar to Tech fans.
When he was at Delhi, we played him my senior year at Cedar Creek (1999) and we beat them 13-12. He had more speed and athleticism on that team than you could believe. We had maybe one offensive skill player that could've started for Delhi. We beat them because he ran the triple option and must have handed off to the fullback 40 times that game. You've got to be kidding me! Their halfback, who had cheetah speed, returned a kickoff for a touchdown, but got maybe 5 carries on offense.
When I heard Mangham hired him, I knew they were getting a lemon.

And lots of Dragon fans have puckered lips about now.

Last I heard you were jocking the eagles and duron. Talking about how Jake was going to be the next all-american there. I didnt even think you remembered ruston high, much less cared. Guess I was wrong.
Middlebacker,
I have never said my son was going to be an all-american anywhere! I do not live in Ruston! My kids do not live in Ruston and therefore have no ties to RHS but I do. If you guys want to keep losing fine by me. When I was a Bearcat my teams lost 2 games in three years and we averaged 14 games a season. What are the Bearcats doing now?
I don't even know if Jake wants to play football!
By the way, Did RHS play ECA and WHAT HAPPENED? Something like 50-0, I believe.
Difference between WINNERS AND LOSERS is LOSERS accept losing just like what is happening in Ruston at Tech and RHS!
Reeder will be gone after this season. Unfortunately, Ruston High will never return to the glory days of the 80's no matter who replaces him because it is a coed public school that doesn't recruit. You simply can't win it any other way in Louisiana.
Not to say Evangel, West Monroe and John Curtis are doing anything wrong, they're just doing what the LHSAA's swiss cheese rules allow.
RHS won two state championships in football, one in basketball and even one in golf while I was there and I hate seeing them as also-rans as much as anybody. But I'd rather see them lose and play by and within the spirit of the rules than to have them sell their souls just to crack USA Today's Top 25.
