Being a coach in the area for several decades I have seen a lot and heard a lot. I remember Morgan as being one of the best area catchers. I also recall the Vito name and there are a couple of others that come to mind. I have coached alongside Morgan. His discipline and committment are unmatched. He has the heart of a champion and the fight of a warrior not to mention a brilliant mind to lead. I know these characteristics are also indicative of a great player. When news broke of Bennett's departure Morgan immediately came to mind in the coaching ranks but I know he's now doing industrial supervisory work. Orangefield would only be so lucky to have him back. Best of luck to whoever they do choose. Best of luck to Bennett and Kirbyville.

Morgan and I coached together a few years ago, kids loved him, parents loved him, and he is an excellent teacher and coach.  I saw him take over a baseball team that really didn’t understand basic fundamentals, and he ended up making them a winner. The guy is an outstanding football coach too…heck, his last coaching job was being a varsity football coach at West Brook, what a lots of folks feel is the pinnacle school for football. Like some coaches, he is well rounded and was able to pull off a plant job…he is some big shot now at one of those refineries, so the chance of him being interested are somewhat undetermined. But if any school has the chance to bring him out of coaching retirement, it may be his former alma mater…and I do know that when he was in the coaching profession, this job was on his wish list…of course, that was a couple of seasons ago…Either way, he is the finest human being I have ever worked with, and yes he will make Orangefield proud…
