The reason I ask is there has been a recent effort to bring Dennis Alexander back to Daingerfield, where he took the Tigers to state titles in the 80s.
Tons of people sent emails, letters, phone calls and circulated a petition to bring him back.
One of the reasons the public began this is the recent trend of kids transferring out of the district and to nearby schools due to the issues in the athletic dept and school. Alexander was seen as one who would straighten things out.
The superintendent acted unusual in many respects. She formed a search committee instead of the board doing that as they have in the past. That committee came up with three candidate finalists (Alexander was one of them). Before those finalists would be presented to the board, the superintendent arbitrarily eliminated Alexander from the list. Apparently, to remove that choice from a board that was seen as 5-2 going in as favoring DA.
So now, an assistant from the previous staff who many say was instrumental in the previous HC leaving (shennanigans), is now the HC. The previous HC took an OC position at Pearland.
So thats why I asked. Its probably a bad comparison (DKR-DA) anyway.
