    WOSgrad got a reaction from kicker in How is Silsbee's off-season progressing?   
    Here again is something that I doesn't understand.  You state that on one hand that a playoff run in a player's senior year is usually not taken into account by FBS schools, yet in the next breath you trumpet Ozen's history of getting players signed to a FBS college.  If the issue is recruiting in nature, then it really shouldn't matter whether Calvin suits up this year as an Ozen Panther or a Silsbee Tiger as the book is generally closed on him recruiting wise.  To me, it makes no difference as long as Calvin and his family feels that they benefit in ALL life matters from either staying in Beaumont or moving to Silsbee.  We can all state that we think we know what is best, but when it comes down to it, the only ones who really know that are Calvin and his family and from what I have gleaned they don't brashly go into decisions like this.
    And to attempt to shame a 17 year old kid to do otherwise is indeed...shameful.

    Oh, I read what you said which is exactly what I stated back to you so the reading comprehension problem seems to be yours alone.  If Calvin where to be getting an offer to UT, according to your plain words he would have already received that offer so whether he suits up for Ozen or Silsbee this year.  Sure, a move to Silsbee might not help him as a football player.  In fact, I hope that neither he nor his family have never declared that as that would surely doom him for a senior year should he transfer to Silsbee.  But by the same token, I bet you can't give me a "legit" reason why it would hurt him as a football player to be a Silsbee Tiger as opposed to an Ozen Panther.
    You stated that leaving Ozen "is not what real men do" implying that Calvin is somewhat less of a man if he goes to Silsbee for his senior year.  That is not shameful to you? WOW.  It is obvious what your angle is on this as we are not the fools that you think, or should I say more accurately, wish.  If Calvin Tyler, Sr and Calvin Tyler, Jr and the rest of the Tyler family think it is best to move to Silsbee, that is just something that you will have to live with, just as the folks from Silsbee will have to live with it if the Tylers decide that staying in Beaumont is best.

    There is one thing that just hasn't made sense to me during this battle...why is Ozen being termed the "bigger" and Silsbee the "smaller" school?  But for an administrative decision by BISD opting Ozen up into Class 5A, Ozen and Silsbee would be in the same district!  So how could staying at a school which, according to the UIL, is in the same classification by ADM help you get the FBS scholarship that the other one couldn't?

    We can go back and forth all day about which program is better ,at the end of the day it matters not, where ever the kid wants to attend and play I hope he get his wish. As for as education goes, it does matter based on student and the teachers. It all depends on the student and how they are raised ,which in Calvin's case he was raised well. I Have kids that have attended and they have excelled at Ozen and went on to get their college degrees and are well employed. Always believed if you put God first, and work hard and believe in yourself ,what's for you is for you, doesn't matter where you go.
