WACO, Texas -- New Baylor coach Matt Rhule has made some immediate Texas connections by hiring the president of the states high school coaches who is a former Bears receiver. Discount Air Max Shoes .Rhule announced his first five hires with the Bears on Friday, three days after being named Baylors coach. They include four members from his staff at Temple and David Wetzel, the head coach and athletic director the past 13 seasons at Ronald Reagan High School in San Antonio.Sean Padden will serve as Baylors director of football operations, similar to his role at Temple the past four years.Rhule didnt immediately announce the titles and job duties for Wetzel, Francis Brown, Mike Siravo and Evan Cooper. There was also no indication of when the rest of his staff would be completed.Brown and Siravo were defensive assistants at Temple, and Cooper was director of player personnel for the Owls.Wetzel, who has coached in the state high school ranks for 25 years, was serving as president of the Texas High School Football Coaches Association. He lettered at Baylor in 1990 and 1991 while playing for Grant Teaff, and also earned a masters degree from the school in 1994. Before Reagan, he was head coach at schools in Killeen and Austin.Wetzel told the Waco Tribune-Herald that he expects to play a major role in recruiting, but didnt know yet if hed be coaching offense or defense.Given the opportunity, its really a unique deal, Wetzel told the newspaper. I feel like its Gods timing for me to be in the right place at the right time.When Rhule was introduced Wednesday in Waco, he said he had already received about 480 text messages, many from coaches. He also didnt rule out the possibility of some of the current Baylor assistants staying, but said he hadnt had a chance to meet with them. Those assistants were retained from former coach Art Briles staff with Jim Grobe as acting head coach this season.NOTE: Baylor announced Friday that Jalen Pitre, a defensive back from Stafford, Texas, signed a financial aid agreement that will allow him to enroll for the spring 2017 semester after graduating from high school early. Before Rhule was hired, Pitre was the only player verbally committed for Baylors recruiting class in February. He had 83 tackles, six interceptions and four forced fumbles as a senior.---More AP college football: www.collegefootball.ap.org and https://twitter.com/AP-Top25 Wholesale Air Max . Still, Brewers manager Ron Roenicke thought taking him out before the fifth inning was an unusual move. "Im looking up at the board and hes got two hits given up and one run, and Im taking him out after the fourth inning," Roenicke said. Wholesale Air Max China .

The Brazilian goalkeeper signed a loan deal with the Major League Soccer club on Friday as he looks to get playing time ahead of this summers World Cup in his home country. Phoenix1 became PhoenixWon on Sunday as the then-winless underdog finally took home its first match win of the season over fellow rookies Apex Gaming. After going through the first half of the season without a victory and dropping a series to every other team in the league, P1s victory over Apex allows the team to look forward to next weeks games instead of dreading them. At 1-9 in the standings, Phoenix1 currently sit tied with Echo Fox in ninth place, and are only three games back of Counter Logic Gaming and Team Envy for the sixth and final spot in the postseason.It feels really good because weve been working so hard these last few weeks, said Phoenix1s support Austin Gate Yu following the squads inaugural match win. I actually thought we could do even better. I thought we could do well against [Team SoloMid], but I think theyre just a really cohesive team so Im pretty happy with the one win this week.Before TSMs ace mid laner S?ren Bjergsen Bjerg took over in the first game on Saturday versus P1, the forlorn rookies were putting up a fight against the undefeated league leaders. But, as it has been for the majority of the season, P1s inexperience playing together and lack of synergy led to them getting picked apart by a better, more well-rounded team with a game changing player like Bjergsen.Most of us dont really take whatever people say online to heart, said Gate, elaborating on how the team was able to put up with the constant backlash throughout the weeks as a winless rookie club. At the end of the day, we all think were really good players, so theres not much to worry about when it comes to third-party [criticism]. Also, when youre the underdog, it feels like there is less pressure. It feels like its much easier to play the game, too. There is no real need to care about what other teams or what other people on the internet think of you.Although the team had failed to live up to its symbol of a phoenix rising from the ashes before Sundays conquest, all chatter surrounding the fledgling organization as a whole has been positive. Last split, Gate played on Team Impulse, a team that did better than expected on paper and even survived relegations, but was barred from thee summer split when it came out the organization didnt keep up with payment to the players on the roster. Cheap Authentic Air Max. ast split on Team Impulse, we had little to no support staff, he continued. We literally had to call up our friends and ask them if they could help us with our team because we were having some struggles. With Phoenix1, its completely the opposite. We dont even have to ask. They just think about it first. And we, just as players, want to repay them and show the org that theyre doing good for us with some wins.From the shambles of living with Impulse in the spring, Gate and the rest of Phoenix1 currently live in one of the nicer team houses of any team in the league. The property has a main house and a guest house equipped with a gigantic pool and other amenities youd expect from a luxurious space in Los Angeles. Id say its the best team house Ive been in so far, said Gate.I actually think -- people have said it over and over -- North America is really competitive this split, he said. Were just going to have to take it week by week, and see if we can pull out more wins and go to the [NA LCS] Finals in Canada. Because four of us are from there, so wed really like to make it there.Always looking on the positive side of things instead of getting sandbagged by negativity, Gate and the rest of P1 have continually done after game interviews with press and hung around to talk to fans outside the arena even during the 0-9 stretch of games. He said it was a blessing after last seasons tumultuous split with Impulse to find an upstanding and supportive organization like Phoenix1.First things first, I cant really say in words how much I appreciate it, he said to all the fans of P1 whove been supporting the squad over the past month. You guys are masochists to like us. Weve been struggling. Its hard to root for a team thats struggling, so for you guys whove rooted for us since the very beginning, I cant thank you enough. And then for all the people that supported me personally, I think youre probably the reason why I do esports, so thanks a lot. ' ' '
