I watched the game vs. WO-S. LV is fast enough. Much like WO-S did, LV will have the speed advantage over Silsbee.

Very good point.

Bellville did not return their entire Oline. Just three starters. Also, Bellville only returned 3 on defense from last year. Lost 8 starters. La Vega is much faster overall teamwise than Bellville. Teams with very good speed on both sides of the ball has been problematic for Silsbee this year.

Look two posts up

To be honest, I didn't have too much an issue with BC moving up. Their enrollment is very close to the Div. I cutoff. Most likely will be DI next realignment. Now for Hardin-Jefferson and Liberty, that's another story.

Solid point

Most of those years they had a 1200 enrollment or more. Now under 700. Just those numbers say a loss of some talent.

If you are talking football, then yes. But keep it in perspective. You had two Hall of Fame coaches prior to now. Most would expect a drop. The fact is WO-S has been spoiled with having two HOF coaches over a 45 year period. Also a very experienced coaching staff over those years, That is something that many many schools dream of. Welcome to the real world. lol

I am not saying there is no talent, just not as much these last few years, From my eye, I honestly believe there has been a drop. Nothing astronomical, but still a drop. Have had others tell me the same.

As most on here know I am all about the numbers. Nothing good about those numbers, particularly the girls sports. 12-89??? Most want to point at the coaching aspect of these numbers (and rightly so). But those numbers also scream lack of talent. I watch a lot of football and basketball (more basketball than anything) over the last several years and some baseball and softball. (no volleyball). Personally IMO, I have seen a drop in talent at WO-S across the board. I also talk with lot's of area coaches (multiple sports) and many say the same thing about WO-S athletics. The talent has dropped. Now it ain't all about the athletes though. It's also a fact the experience level on the athletic staff at WO-S is not nearly experienced as it once was. I am talking all sports, not just football. That has a lot to do with the lack of success as well. The real question is, why are there not highly experienced coaches at WO-S? I think most have an idea as to why but I think it's more than just that. I think football is getting better. Boys basketball has had it's moments over the last couple years as well. But the other sports are certainly struggling, to say the least.
