Just saw this on the caller Facebook page. Coach Trae Stevens resigned. The timing is terrible for that program.

I feel like when the coach uses spending more time with the family as a young coach, either the wife doesn't like them coaching as much as maybe they once did, or the marital issues caused by coaching hours left an ultimatum of fight for your family or keep your job. Especially since he is quoted as saying he wants to stay in the sports realm in some fashion, but at this time he doesn't really know what it looks like.

My dad coached for 12 years and he didn’t like the time he needed to spend with the kids. He said I’ve got 3 of my own I need to spend time with. Also I heard about all the stuff going with coaches he worked that were messing around on their families. He got tired of being around them. It takes a lot of sacrifices by coaches. They must have a very understanding wife too.

They must have a very understanding wife too. Absolutely! I have seen many of those things as well. I left schools that had coaches that chased tail more than they cared to coach. My first wife hated the coach wife life. I was constantly being accused of infidelity by her. Little did I know she was the one sneaking around. Needless to say, that's why she's my ex wife. My current wife is amazing! Her dad was her softball coach up to high school. She loves sports and is like a team mom to all the kids. She coaches our girls in t-ball and softball, and has learned the game of soccer too. It definitely helps having that type of support.

Steven's was forced out at Mathis. The new superintendent that was hired by mathis last year brought in his ex AD to be the defensive coordinator without Trae's input. They plotted to get Steven's out late to convince the board to hire within so the supers buddy could get the job. He's interim right now but will pass a 4-3 board vote to remove the interim tag. The new new AD was fired at his last school by this same superintendent mid football season but not sure why.

Absolutely disgusting behavior and disgusting of the super too... not only does Steven's suffer losing his job, but the kids suffer the most of all!!

I was just called to set up an interview to become the AD in Mathis. Reading up about Coach Stevens, it looks like he took a job with BSN Sports. Not sure if he was forced out and settled for BSN or if it was of his own accord.
The Mathis ISD Athletics page is still set to last year's information. I doubt that the head coaching job is connected to the AD job but I cannot find any information about a new HC.
If anyone has more information, please let me know.
Thanks

No lie! They're terrible there... they have Alice beat on politics and parental involvement of coaching decisions. They're more corrupt than ccisd.
