:blessed: @rantanamo Coach Russell is replacing Coach Jordan as Head Coach:


Garland has named Danny Russell of Wichita Falls as football coach. Russell returns to Garland after three years as head coach at Wichita Falls. Russell was defensive coordinator at Garland since 2001 and was on the staff underJoe Martin with Tom Westerberg, Jeff Jordan and David Beaty for Garland's 1999 Class 5A state championship over Katy.

Russell, 49, is a 1984 Garland graduate, where he played football and baseball. Russell played college baseball at Panola College before graduating from North Texas.

Russell replaces Jordan, who left to join the football staff at Kansas under Beaty. Westerberg, of course, coached Allen to four state titles in the last decade before leaving for Barbers Hill two months ago. Martin is assistant executive director with the Texas High School Coaches Association.

Jordan announced was leaving the sidelines of Texas high school football and joining the staff at Kansas. Jordan was head coach at Garland since 2001 when he was elevated from defensive coordinator when Martin left for Allen.

Shot last night was like a kick in the guts. I'm not upset with Shaka's first season though.:yeshrug:


Addition by subtraction next year losing Felix, Lammert, and Ibeh. Wish Cam could get a med RS though.

You really back on the Heard bandwagon? After the last practice before Spring Break, It's looking like a 2-QB race between Swoopes & Buchele? Heard is running 3rd.


Breh I don't buy into those fairy tale reports from the 9.95s, I really don't give a shyt what they say, we've heard the same shyt on Swoopes the last 2 years, he is a practice warrior but becomes a mental midget when the lights come on. I'm done with breh, and Shane won't be ready as a freshman, if he starts, by midseason everyone will then be waiting on Ehlinger. We gotta stop ruining freshman QBs. So out of Swoopes and Heard, yea I'd rather Heard, and so would the players.:sas2:


But after one week I doubt the race is now a 2 man race. Its been ONE. WEEK. and you believe that shyt lol.

Locksley not even getting reps :ohhh:

He from Baltimore ain't he? I can see him transferring if he don't get any PT this year.

This really shouldn't be of a surprise, dude needs to move to WR.

:martin: Why do folks cop pleas for Heard talking about he can become better, but the same doesn’t apply for the other QBs on your our roster such as Locksley?

Locksley is Freshman, he gonna get better as he gets older. I hope he sticks around & waits his turn to be the guy, instead of transferring or moving to WR.

Locksley played "qb" in a run first option in HS. Dude is incredibly raw and will need a few years IF he was ever going to become a college QB. He is sandwiched between Swoopes/Heard and Shane/Sam. Right now Shane is already ahead of him on depth chart. So just when do you see this kid getting playing time as a QB? That is the real point here.
