Letter to the Editor

Letter to the Editor

Letter to the Editor: I am writing this letter of support in honor of my HS Basketball Coach Doug Galyean. Coach G was hired by my father, Paul Boswell who was once Superintendent of RISD, in 1980 right out of college to be the Head Boys Basketball Coach at Ranger HS. He coached us from 7th grade through our Senior year when we graduated in 1986. We were very good in Basketball during those years. He helped to produce multiple THSCA All Stars, District Titles and Playoff teams, and Collegiate players during his time, (yes in RANGER TEXAS) but more importantly he helped produce even better young people who became even better adults. Coach was and is a shining star in the profession and a significant leader, mentor and advocate of coaching we all aspire to be. He is the true reason why many before my generation, during my generation and long after my generation chose to be a Coach. I am saddened personally and professionally in regard to what has transpired recently in Eastland. I am not here to lay blame on anyone or to call out anyone. I do intent is to make it very clear to everyone that Coach Doug Galyean is an incredible person that gave his heart and soul to Eastland ISD without hesitation. He served there for 25 years and could have easily been at a bigger more high profile school and job but he chose EHS time and time again. It is very disappointing to see his significant and impactful tenure end like this to be honest. The landscape of educational based athletics has changed in his 40 year career and in my 33 years of being in the profession. As an Athletic Director and the son and grandson of Superintendents I was taught to be upfront, honest, fair and loyal. To be above personal or political agenda. To support, advocate and to uplift the majority to ensure the team was always at the forefront of any individual dynamic. I am truly disappointed in news...via social media. Coach Galyean’s commitment, dedication and legacy via Eastland HS and those 25 YEARS of GRADUATING CLASSES deserve better. 02/01/2024 12:00 AM
