I'm no mathematician... but it seems to me that they ran out of talent in about 2010.  Relative to the opponents on their schedule anyway.  The school is 28-36 since 2010.  Not very good....but if he went 20-9 in district games in 4 years then that's pretty decent.

The winning years were from a team he did not build.

Congratulations  Ozen sounds like they are evenly matched.Thanks again for updates JustUs.

They aren't evenly matched. I think Ozen had the better team. They stopped taking advantage of their size. They were better offensively when they set up their offense. It was a good game though. Among other things, Central needs to work on their free throws. They had an opportunity to win it at the free throw line twice.

People on here talking about who WOS can't beat. That's a bunch of BS! A long as you beat the team that lines up in front of you. We're saying they can't beat Katy or North Shore, but they can beat all the teams of the people posting on this site so what's the difference.

Good luck in the playoff WOS.

Well now they have a coach is who is a product of the program and wants to be there. He's not going to quit to take a job Legacy. He cares about his alma mater so the effort will be there. There are some great kids in that program. I wish him well. I hope they beat everybody but Central.

Congrats Coach! They picked the right man for the job!

Hopefully they will hire someone who is not going to make backdoor deals. The coach hiring process under him has been just a formality. The coaches are selected prior to the interviews.

HELLS NO! This isn't little league. Play to win.

All I have to say is BEASTMODE!

Central is glad to have him back!

Congratulations Chris. Keep up the good work.

Is West Brook doing spring practice?

Yes. They have started.

Everything is not the kids fault. Coaches have to be up for the challenge as well. I've said it several times on here. The best programs in the area have stability. BISD will never be dominant again as long as they change coaches every couple of years and they let kids transfer schools at will. They have created a culture where coaches just do not want to stay here. You recently heard Coach Foreman was offered another job. You have to ask yourself why did he apply to a smaller school nonetheless?  How many coaches has the district went through under the current AD? It is very rare that a good coach will stay here long. Look at all the winning coaches that have been here since the creation on the school trifecta.  

WOS is the standard here! Great program. Two coaches in 25 -  30+ years. 

Much as it hurts me to say it, Ned is a well coached team. They always have been. They maximize the talent they have and don't make excuses. They know what to do with talent when they get it.

PNG is a respectable program.

I will be the first one to say that was not a fan of his in high school, but I always hoped he would do good in college because he represents the area. I hope he bounces back from this in a positive way.

Realistically, there are all state kids that don't get recruited very hard.

Flannigan has had 2 Freshman teams every year he's been the Bruins head coach. Hell he's had the numbers to have 5 total teams in his program. Varsity, JV a and b, and Freshman a and b. I will give him credit for that. The kids turn out to play for him. If he can find a good OC and the defensive staff keeps improving then the achievements will come.

Previous coach did not allow anyone to play that did not participate in the off season activities. If the turnout is low for that then you know the rest. Current coach is not like that.

It's not secret the past admin has not been pro Ozen....

Ozen was Dr. Thomas' baby. Anything affiliated with him is the devil.   ~    SO THEY SAY

Actually West Brook's football numbers went up after Stump left. 

The incoming freshman numbers looked like a 3A program. Then, quite a few kids quit when they hired the new coach (thanks to some bitter assistants).

This past season Ozen freshman team played a few games then the numbers dwindled, then they went 0-10 for the season.

This past season Ozen JV went 1-9 with 25 to 29 players

The program was already on life support due to hand full of players on varsity. To opt to stay in 5A by the AD and Administration of managers is

a come on man moment. Its no way they can compete with Nederland, Central, PNG, Memorial  Going1-9 or 2-8  is a real possibility. I wish them the best. Its no surprise someone wants them to fail. Its no way they should be a 5A football team.Smh.... 

Westbrook went through the same thing when Stump left.

Did anyone see how many kids Central fielded on varsity this year? It was a doggone shame. All (bmt) schools go through this from time to time.

BISD is trying to save  money using that same old OC Mike Taylor philosophy. If you are not familiar with him, he is the one who closed all the other high schools in the first place. They never should have opened Ozen there in the first place, BISD has even tried for force kids to go to Ozen. They tried it with my daughter.. I am, however for keeping it open because it gives 22 more kids an opportunity to play football, 5 more for basketball, etc. That's another valedictorian and honor grads. It gives the kids opportunity. The problem is zoning and freedom of choice. They need to rezone the schools to something normal. They have talked about neighborhood schools but that does not apply to high schools. I live near Central but I'm dual zoned to Brook & Ozen. My kids graduated from different high schools cause I moved across the street. Going to a regular zoning plan makes more sense which is probably why they won't do it. 

Everybody.

I'm wondering why the government is waiting. Do they think the guys are going to change their mind? We have several ways to resolve conflict in this country. Hostile takeover is not one of them. Yes the government owns a lot of land but you don't have unlimited rights to it. There shouldn't be any negotiations. Remove them from the premises.

Those boys been playing together for a long time.

​Well Said!

Lumberton won't beat Ozen this year. I think it will be a blowout.

Represent your school Raidergirl. I've been there.

I have ref'd a couple of youth games and I must admit sometimes I just got caught up in the game watching.
