Mr. Thornton Melon got a reaction from CardinalBacker in DuBois named Vidor new AD/Head Football Coach
Correction : It's now Interstate 10 - Vidor 6 and we're cool with that.

I’n my opinion Vidor took a step backwards.

Vidor’s playbook has pages?

If DuBois runs the offense like he did when he was OC, it will be somewhat of improvement. Week to week the scheme was different with him as OC. The last several years we seem stuck on one page of the playbook.

It appears that the consensus here on the forum is that Vidor's hiring process will be more of the same. Since its been awhile that it's been open, I'm going to take a different attitude. I'm a positive person. You know, the glass is always half full. So, I would like to think that Vidor has scoured the State and has found the best person possible for the job. This would include calling and giving the Liberty Hill OC the opportunity to say yes or no. Because you never know until you try. Heck, I would even call Carthage's OC and give him the same opportunity to say yes or no. I firmly believe that there's a good OC in a great program that would want to be a HC. So, I say -- why not Vidor? Coaches always like a challenge to turn around a program. So, hopefully Vidor can do the right thing so the kids and the fans can be proud!

Vidor does not pay enough money. Anahuac has the money, that’s how they got him from newton. However if Vidor did hire him, he would build a team better than anything Vidor has ever had.

Mr. Thornton Melon reacted to Reagan in Png 2023 ??
Some tend to get silly when losing an argument. Which the echo chamber is clearly doing here.

Mr. Thornton Melon reacted to Razor in Png 2023 ??
I will use and extreme example, but let's just say the KC Chiefs play Sabine Pass in football? If Sabine Pass loses, is it the coaches fault exclusively or do maybe the players/level of talent have something to do with it??
Just labeling your argument as "blaming the kids" is easy and frankly lazy IMO...if you portray someone as putting all the blame on the poor kiddos, it's easy to paint those folks as villains...the bottom line is that sometimes you just don't have the Jimmy's and Joe's...you need good coaching AND good players to have serious success

Congrats !! The future of Jasper football is looking bright with the Crumedy hire. I'm extremely happy for the Jasper folks

I agree. Most (all?) of the teams successful with the Slot T have a decent passing attack, like teams who use the Spread have a decent run game.

WOS needs more than fans/community getting behind the HC system…

Unless they don't open the job and hire the very best available applicant. Then more should be said

Welcome to my world. Our applicant list was small because it wasn't posted either.

In the history of Vidor, they have only won 2 out-right District Championships. One was with Edgar Payne and the other one was with Phillip Brown. So, according to some who say it's not the coach, the "blame the kids" cabal would want you to actually think that championship-type kids only showed up during these two coach's DC's and then left after that. I know, I know, it boggles the mind!

It's that college education paying off for me again.
That, and I've got an uncanny grasp on the obvious.
