    Hearing some rumors from Orangefield that took place this morning 

    Worst kept secret in SETX as many have said before. He's been denying it all year, which I don't understand. If it was to "protect" the players, they already knew and it showed by their demeanor this year. He's going "home" and getting paid more so not sure the reason for "hiding" it or avoiding what everyone already knew. Hopefully he's not making the move just to "make his best 5 years" for retirement. Knowing his track record I doubt that would be the case. 

  2. West Orange - Stark has always been about tradition. Not just in football, but as a community and a school district. How many teachers, coaches, administrators, etc. have retired, changed districts, or left the profession in the last 10 years or so? WOS use to be a place where you could come back and still know the majority of the faculty and staff and feel like you were back home. It’s tough to continue tradition with so much change across the board. If I’m correct, WOS coaching staff has several former players coaching now, and a handful of coaches that have been there for multiple years. They see our post, they know the expectations and I have no doubt, they’re doing the best they can to keep those traditions alive. The struggles aren’t coming from a lack of effort or passion, it’s just a transition to something different with several hiccups along the way. Tradition doesn’t like change and it is very apparent by several keyboard warriors post.

     Oh by the way he has won more games this year than any coach in the history of the school and its not even Christmas.  He is obviously doing something right.

    Even if “it doesn’t get any better”, HF basketball is 11-3 and from what it seems like up close, all of his players love him. It really doesn’t seem like it has to get much better.

    SO MAYBE THIS COACHED WAS THERE BEFORE 10 YEARS AGO SO MY APOLOGIES FOR MISSPEAKING BUT IT SEEMS THAT YALL HATE TO SEE A YOUNG BLACK MAN HAVE SUCCESS.  BUT LIKE COACH TOLD ALL OF HIS BOYS BEFORE THE YEAR THE THEME WOULD BE TO "BLOCK OUT THE NOISE".  HE TOLD THEM THAT THERE WOULD BE MANY PEOPLE GUNNING FOR HIM AND TO BE PREPARED FOR IT. BOY WAS HE RIGHT!!!

    Hmmm...

    Even without the complete seasons, your "facts" are off in your own post.

  4. Rules are rules. You break them and get caught, you get the punishment given. Does that necessarily mean the rule was broken intentionally or the coaches were aware? No one will ever know. But same goes for traffic violations. How many traffic laws or “rules” have all of us broke that we weren’t aware we were breaking or didn’t realize it at the time, but if you got pulled over you still got the ticket or a warning? Bottom line is, a rule was broken and there may or may not be a punishment coming. Everyone can give their two cents, which is exactly what several people on this board love doing, just don’t get all upset if someone says something you don’t like or want to hear!

  6. It must be tough to be a back to back state champion and have to play a "perfect" game every week to keep the "fans" happy. Bottom line, a WIN is a WIN and the Mustangs are still playing in December. I completely agree that the 2017 Mustangs don't resemble the 2016 Mustangs, but they're still finding a way to get the W week after week. Have any of you critics noticed how many of these guys are 2 way players this season compared to last? WOS does not have the depth they did in the past, but they're doing a great job with what they have! To add to that, how many of these guys were even starters last year? You guys say the play book is too watered down or they won't open it up....I'm gonna go out on a limb here and assume the Mustangs did not game plan for the Sophomore to be at QB all week long, but he did a great job when he got in there. Also, looked to me in the second half like the Mustangs slowed the game down to keep things from getting messy. One player took a punch to the groin, another had his helmet ripped off and a third mustang had another player take a swing at him. I could be wrong, but it looked like the Mustangs were getting 4-5 yards every run towards the end of the game. Why would you get away from something that's working? Protect the lead and your players. Everyone wants to critique and point fingers at the coaches, but I doubt they would trade jobs with them!

    I do post for my entertainment 

    I did my homework, didn't notice if anyone else posted this yet or not. 

     

    Last season, WOS finished 15-1 winning the 4A-2 State Championship. In 16 games they played 14 teams which made the Playoffs in their respective classifications. They played 2 5A, 3 4A-1 and 1 3A-2 teams going 5-1 against those teams. Their opponents combined records was 120-81, and they outscored their opponents 699-140.

     

    This season WOS has played 1 5A, 4 4A-1 and 1 TCAL teams. They have outscored opponents 429-23, giving up a safety on a penalty in the end zone, 21 points to Kennedale while shutting out their other 6 opponents. 

     

    Call it as you may, but regardless of classification or "competition" I think most will take those stats and two state appearances with one title over the previous two seasons.

  8. I've had the pleasure of knowing Coach Westbrook for several years and can tell you Jasper just made a great hire! I don't know exact records and things of nature, but know he has been successful everywhere he has gone. Fishcat you are correct, he graduated from Nederland and pitched at Lamar. He coached at Lumberton, WOS, 2 schools in the Dallas area and most recently came back to SETX and worked at WOS. Westbrook is not only a great coach but a great person. He's passionate about what he does and will be a great role model for those kids on and off the field. Good luck to the Bulldogs and Coach Westbrook next year!

    1. WOS 6-1  OF, HF, BC, LCM, Silsbee 
    2. BC 6-1  Silsbee, HJ, WOS, OF, HF
    3. Silsbee 6-2  BC, LCM, HJ, WOS
    4. HJ 4-4  HF, BC, LCM, Silsbee

    With the current top 4 records and remaining schedule I don't think you can afford to "rest" anyone if your goal is the District Championship;  not even against the 5th-7th place teams as they've played everyone tough this year! Should be a fun race to the end with all 3 of the top teams still playing each other. In my opinion I think BC has the better bats, Silsbee has the better arms. Rounder17 hit the nail on the head and i'll go with least errors wins.
