Because y’all want to talk down on a great coach/guy I am getting off here till football season. I can not stand when things happen like injuries that y’all attack a coach.

Trust me he doesn't know anything that goes on at w.o.s. just someone that wants to have something to talk abt. And to be honest a straight hater when it comes to w.o.s

hear is the realization and then I'll stop. College ball is not what it is cracked up to be. D1 and down.. Workouts at 530am, day filled with school, 2pm meetings, practice till 730pm, and mandatory tutorials. Its a 530am-9pm a day job. No time for socializing and and enjoying the College experience... a player really has to enjoy the process to be happy. Hence why so many return after the 1st year. Here is the real truth that parents need to hear from ALL coaches.. high school-select(and be wary of anyone who is requiring money for services and tells you different..): College is only allowed 11.7 scholarships to give out to a 35-50 man roster. Most colleges will bring in 70+ (12 catchers) in the fall and let some go by start of spring.. Its a cut throat business.. Most kids, if they get any kind of athletic scholarship, are lucky to get 20%-30%. Very, very seldom does a player receive a full ride. If you are a parent or player and are spending all this money for travel ball, lessons, and exposure as a investment for school... then really just save that money and put into savings or investments for College costs... you will come out way ahead.. and your kid will be happier enjoying the college experience. If you are doing these and spending the money to: help you kid's skills to help him become a better player and teammate, for the kids enjoyment, better understanding of the game, to help him learn life lessons, family fun.. really anything other than the expectation that your child will receive a college athletic scholarship.. then by all means do it.. I would also stress the importance of GRADES to your child.. grades, class rank, SAT are EXTREEMLY important.. academic scholarships along with grants for low socioeconomic are the deciding factors in recruitment. Sorry, all this talk about baseball college recruitment has got me fired up.. so many do not understand the reality and there are many who take advantage of that situation and it is upsetting.

You da one to talk, Big Steve.

After all of the talk about how great their coach is (including from him himself), there just always seems to be some reason when they lose apart from being the lesser team.

Pretty wild stuff. I need to talk to my buddy and see if he had to respond to that one.

What about Carthage, Stephenville, Celina, Brownwood? You think Austin Westlake is going to replicate what Dodge has done? Southlake Carrol hasn't replicated what Dodge has done. And probably not going to. So, at Aledo, Buchanan had NOTHING to do with it?! With all the growth you talk about about, they are in Div 2 5A. So, come the 3rd, they should zoom right on up to Div 1 6A. But, Buchanan must be the luckiest coach in the world to be there at the right time when all the athletes showed up. But, the ones I feel sorry for are the previous 14 coaches that never had Buchanan's great fortune. And the worst of the lot is the coach right before Buchcnan. If he would have just stayed on all the State Championships would have been his! Even you can't believe that! But, maybe you can!!

I would seriously tell them to talk to Trinity and take a visit. He will not be disappointed at all.

Dang, talk about hitting the nail on the head. Those 2 dudes spoke the truth. A truth that the liberal/DEMONcrat "World" doesn't want to hear right now. Not exactly the image that I agree with but they send a very REAL message. Would love to see them on the main stream media(FOX news).

Is it possible, that the best quarterback in Liberty County this season, was on the Hardin Hornet 8th grade team? If you've had a chance to see him play, you know how talented the kid is. Hull Daisetta Hardin Cleveland Liberty Dayton Tarkington I seriously think he would've started on most of these teams listed this past season if the opportunity had been presented. Dayton is the only question mark, and it's a big one. It's the offseason, we need stuff to talk about, so what do you guys think?

From the article: ""We've got 10 years to solve the climate crisis and we need to spend our money wisely," said John Noël, senior climate campaigner at Greenpeace." AlGore said the same thing, what, 20-30 years ago? What's interesting is they don't talk about the volcano that just erupted (Hunga Tonga Hunga) that spewed into the air more than anything man as ever put into the air. And in the history of the world -- how many volcanoes have erupted? Thousands, millions? And we still have a planet and air. Why don't they talk about this? It's because it's not about the planet. They found a way to control peoples lives! [Hidden Content]

I’m just posting information on some names people I’ve heard talk about here and there.

[Hidden Content] The way this article reads, they only intend to post the job for the minimum ten days. If that's the case, they probably know who they want and a hire will be made quickly.

This is a sports page forum, not really social media but I get what you're trying say. I gave an observation based on facts of the game as did others. We disagreed on certain points which people do. Some where there to watch HJ win and focused on how HJ played, I focused on how HF performed and played. Two perspectives based on personal bias which brings good debate. Only betas get in their feelings about disagreements as real men know we not going to always agree especially in a rivalry games. I teach both my sons to set their own tone in all things. If you allow anyone's words to alter your state of mind then you have given power of your destiny over to them. I also teach them criticism of your worst is always valid and should be heard loud and clear in order to correct it. Your feelings mean absolutely nothing to the grind of this world as a man. But thank you for the talk. Blessing and peace unto you and yours 💯

I'm definitely not him but I know special coaches when I see them. And, I just might know a small amount about football. Sometimes. In all seriousness, you can't take into consideration his records at EP or Rayburn. Not even remotely close to what we have at PNG or pretty much any other school in the state. Heck, it's heroic to even take those positions. Coming out of Clear Lake HS as the defensive coordinator, beating Katy in their heyday, he could have went anywhere he wants and he did. He brought positive influence to some less fortunate kids. The folks who know, know. Satcher would be a phenomenal coach. Talk about a treasure hiding amongst the weeds. Better get him here if you can. I'm telling you.

If you need some TXHFSB talk in the off-season Tepper and I give you some with the January edition of TepAndStepp for DCTF subscribers only. We talk UIL Realignment and some of the coaching changes that have taken place thus far www.texasfootball.com/article/2022/01/25/tep-stepp-podcast-what-to-watch-for-in-uil-realignment?ref=article_preview_title

Not me. Coaches talk among themselves. They know about situations at other schools. I mean if some in the town got a petition to get rid of a hall of fame legendary coach because he wasn’t doing things the way they wanted, what in the heck would they do to some new guy when he goes against them? No one wants to get into a toxic situation like that.

All coaches talk to one another or thru one another. I reckon most got told WOS already had their guy.

I think that is the whole point - hypocrisy! They all think this, and they all talk like this behind closed doors. However, the main point pushed on here is that 45 lost because of HIS demeanor and mentality, but the “other side” routinely gets a pass. I could care less how they speak, what they type as long as the job of president (putting USA first) is being accomplished.

Maybe I am wrong and I’m sure someone will correct me if I am. I think Dan Hooks, Larry Neumann and Brandon Faircloth all were assistants only before being named head coach at WOS, Nederland and a PNG. That is a fairly long track record of some of the winningest coaches in this area in recent years. I think all three are the winningest coach in each school’s history and all coached against each other. With Hooks and Neumann, I believe it was their only head coaching job. They did not come from somewhere else as a head coach and never moved on to somewhere else. Until yesterday that was true of Faircloth. Much talk is made of bringing in some mythical head coach with a long résumé but that may not always be the right answer.

Pardon my ignorance, I had no idea. Story should have made the cover of Sports Illustrated. Talk about a disturbance in the Force. Did anyone check Nostradamus’ quatrains to see if he hinted at this? Was Ripley’s Believe It Or Not contacted? ESPN?

[Hidden Content] black lives matter once again removing any doubt about who they truly are...from the article: The Black Lives Matter chapter in Washington, D.C., expressed indignation that police officers who are shot in the line of duty are automatically treated as "heroes" after an officer was shot and wounded Sunday night in Northwest D.C. A suspect is still at large after opening fire on officers on the street in D.C.’s Petworth neighborhood, the Metropolitan Police Department said. One officer, who has not been named, suffered non-life threatening injuries from being shot and was treated and released from the hospital, police said. As the scene was still unfolding, Black Lives Matter D.C. took the opportunity to promote its #StopMPD campaign and warn against the spread of "copaganda." "This is the point we’ve been making for months," the group tweeted Sunday night. "Look at the reaction and coverage tonight. Tear jerker press conferences and proclamations of heroes coming soon. Imagine if people knew these folks’ names. Being Black in DC is more dangerous than any job." "This isn’t to say these scenarios represent what happened tonight, but it does explain our skepticism, interest in details, and highlights the difference in how people talk and act when an officer is hurt vs when they hurt a Black person. No one asks what the cop did wrong," the group wrote. Not only are they racist, they are delusional...NO ONE ASKS WHAT THE COP DID WRONG?????? Really?

Heck he needs to try to coach a youth football game. I bet he doesn’t win a championship in 7 years. It’s alot easier to talk about it then doing it. Kids have a lot of outside distractions that cause them not to stay focused

No one has ever done what Surratt has ever done, so I wouldn’t expect Faircloth to. Danaher won more games than anyone ever in Texas ever has, so pretty sure he knows how to coach. Talk about next level…. Outside of winning a state title (which is extremely difficult) Danaher had Calallen at the pinnacle for 40 years. Danaher had Calallen in around 10 semifinals and 2 state title games. Every time losing to a team with much much more talent than he had. And they came close to winning several of them, because of him, not in spite of his coaching. Your expectations of a state championship are no where close to reality. Not even close. Ask anyone who has ever coached, and better yet, that has won one.
