We had heard that when Joe Rodriguez won his election to the Brownsville Independent School District, changes would be aplenty.
Now, with newly-installed interim superintendent Esperanza Zendejas carrying water for the "Coach," the predictions are becoming all too true.
The word in athletic circles (Rodriguez's claim to fame for losing to Seguin in 69) is that Rene Medrano will be promoted to Athletic Director, that Tom Campos will be moved to Hanna High School, and that the coach at Pace High School will be history there.
It is also said that Mark A. Guess, the current AD, will also be moved to a high school near you.
With the turmoil going on with the $3.3 million insurance contract amid charges that the administration allowed for the inclusion of "straw bidders," inflated commissions, and risk managers and consultants doubling as insurance brokers, a continuing probe of Pace High School attendance figures, and the heavy-handed maneuvers of the new superintendent, the last thing this district needs now is further disruption.
Nonetheless, Rodriguez came in with a plan and he has the majority on the board to ram it through. Like a man with a limited window of time to act, he is driving home the point that he is back to control the district and the athletic department. It is rumored that he wished to be buried in the end zone at Sams Stadium, the same end zone that his 69 Eagles couldn't get to against Sequin. Meanwhile, the administration and staff at BISD will just have to watch out for falling bodies as Coach Joe continues his full-court press.
We're going to the Big Dance!

Who cares about the Athletic Department moves....peanuts. What we really want to know if any big-wigs, with semi-high-ranking power are going to be put on paid-leave? Also, is Atkinson really out, or taking a big paycheck. Word is that she is on the TRS Board Election ballot?
La Atkinson: "girl gone wild".
What a joke! And what a bunch of self-serving bastards. Cesar what happened to putting students first? Joe what happened to wanting to give back to the district! Minerva what happened to you will fight for the students and the employees?? Chirinos and Otis dumb and dumber. So pathetic!
The six of you are a bunch of shit, liars and crooks.
She IS on the TRS election ballot but the position is not a salary position plus there are about three other people from other school districts in the RGV running for the same slot.
Joe rod is Bernie Lomax
You idiots voted in that crook in Joe Rodriguez! Now, you will have to pay a price for voting for someone WHO you thought would be a voice for your children? He was a crook when he was AD and everyone knew it? FBI needs to make a move soon, I hope!
Joe Rod is no crook... let him deal the cards... he always tried to help the coaches.... so f down... let him get busy handling his business...
what a mess, what a mess, what mess. did not vote for joe rod at all. Now we have people being moved around as administrators in various departments. Employees deserve a raise. Need to retain our students and go back to core curriculum. 2016 around the corner and some people or board members will not be re-elected either. should move the election back to may and not mix it in with the presidential election. WHAT HAPPENED TO BELIEVE IN BISD? Board should have looked to somebody else as interim superintendent.
Elect Alfred E. Newman as our leader.!
How is Joe Rod handling the insurance mess?
