This Week in TXHSFB: Big 7-on-7 News, Stephenville Makes a Change, Lockhart and Monahans Updates

LaPorte update
LaPorte ISD is moving forward with its process of finding a new head football coach after the departure of Jeff LaReau. LaPorte interviewed 10 candidates in its first round of interviews conducted last week and that list has been cut down to a group of finalists who went in for a second round of interviews this week with the intent to present a name to the school board on February 12. All indications are a Houston area defensive coordinator will be the guy for this job.

Lockhart has narrowed the field
Lockhart has narrowed its choices down to three finalists who will be in this week for the final round of interviews for its vacant head football coach/athletic cirector job. Two of the finalists are coordinators in the San Antonio area and the other is a former head coach in the Big Country. None of the finalists have a Slot-T background so it looks like the Lions will be opening up the offense some as we head into the 2019 season.
