28 college signees 8 FBS scholarships 3 All Americans Scholarships to football players totaling $3.6 million First state championship in school history with a 16-0 season And the coach that oversaw this is on the verge of being fired and no real reason has been given as to why. If I am a top coach, I am telling De Soto ISD "NO THANK YOU!!!!"

And? In baseball, like any other sport, avoiding mental and physical mistakes is important and the team that doesn't make those mistakes usually ends up being the better team in the contest, which is governed by the score. Had they covered 2nd, would Silsbee have won? Maybe. The fact is that they didn't and Mustangs, as the better teams usually do, capitalized on it and on April 7th West Orange-Stark was the better team as shown by the 6-5 score. Will that be the case on April 25th? Ask me about 9:30 and I'll have a little better answer for you on that.

From what I saw of the meeting last night, I am not sure that the voting electorate of the De Soto ISD would agree with you. Three speakers from the public (all that the board allowed to speak) spoke in support of Peterman all to loud applause from the overflow crowd there. Also, previous to the meeting, the superintendent of De Soto ISD recommended his renewal as well as the principal of De Soto High. So De Soto "U" is all about winning, scholarships and getting to the league, huh? Todd Peterman did 2 out of those 3 (and we may learn in 4 years that he did all 3) and where has that gotten him? Possibly out of a job. Given that, why would a coach of a top program say to his bosses, "Ya know, I love this program, the kids, the community support, the school board support and winning, but I am leaving to go to De Soto." Really? Let's look at this. Had Matt Steppe not tweeted what he tweeted yesterday afternoon and had folks from not only from DFW but all over the state tuned in to this meeting, the De Soto ISD board of trustees would have voted not to renew the contract of the ONLY coach in school history to lead De Soto High to a state championship (not Claude Mathis nor any other coach), less than 6 months after the trophy was raised, by a vote of 4-3 (which is strangely also the ratio of black board members to white board members). Further, if those that want Peterman gone think that the state championship credit belongs solely to Shawn Robinson, who has now graduated, what does that say to a new coach about his chances of doing anything with a Robinson-less team? They will get a coach, and probably a decent coach as the lure of coaching a defending state champion will be too much for some to ignore. But if you think that there are coaches who will completely ignore the sorry manner in which this has been handled and decide to venture into the belly of the beast, well............ And with a 6A State Championship to his resume, Todd Peterman will go where ever he wants. It may not be the equivalent to De Soto. Of course, after yesterday, I am not sure that he wants the equivalent to De Soto.

It is senior night and the District 22-4A district finale as the Silsbee Tigers host the West Orange-Stark Mustangs. If the Tigers win, they share the district title with the Mustangs with the #1 seed to be determined. A loss leaves them with the #2 seed. Michael Nelson's Tigers, 22-3 on the season, improved to 8-1 in district play on Friday with a 12-0 win over Little Cypress-Mauriceville. Meanwhile, Shea Landry's Mustangs, 20-3 on the season, improved their record to a district leading 9-0 with a 7-3 win over Orangefield on Friday. The Mustangs took the first game between these two in West Orange on April 7th, 6-5.
