    Alot of teams that are In bigger classifications wont play smaller classification teams due to the fact of possibly losing and job getting talked about losing. Just because your a 6A school doesn't always mean your better than a 4A or 3A school....that's why.....JMO

    I can understand why he does this even though I wouldn't like it if I was on the other side. He's right, if he holds his team back after they build a big lead they will never gain the stamina to play a whole game. This gives them the chance to win the ultimate goal, a state championship which every football player in high school wants to accomplish that feat.

    Do you know that he doesn't?  Remember, the final schedule for teams like Refugio are more of a reflection of who is willing to play you than who you are willing to play. Ask Coach Johnston in Newton, Coach Thompson at WO-S.  I have even heard that Silsbee has at times had difficulty putting up a 10 game schedule.

    I remembered the dropping down in division. I always believed that was nitrous for your program. I knew you were competitive because we played you. Yates was a beast in the 80's. There was some NFL players on that team. You shared more detail than outsiders had been privy to. I still believe you could compete in 6A at least on a local level. WOS dominance then and now (30+ yrs) is the reason I believe you are the premier football powerhouse in the area.

    It depends on who you ask.  Many will point to the 1985 team, WO-S' last team before moving to 4A (what is now 5A).  That team went 11-1-1, had it's first 10-0 regular season, finished the regular season ranked #4 in 5A and took the 1985 Yates team, which went on to capture the 5A State Championship and is considered by some the best in Texas High School History, to the limit.
    But I think that the 1984 season, even though the Mustangs didn't make the playoffs, was the turning point.  They were in a season in which "the change" occurred, which meant that there was a big attitude change which resulted in the Mustangs beating then #9 ranked West Brook and recovering from what is still the Mustangs' only onfield losing season and were in the playoff hunt until the last week of the regular season.  The '85 team built off of that team and made the playoffs for the first time in 6 years and the '86 team won WO-S' first state championship 2 years later.

    Floyd Mayweather was the Welterweight champ not too long ago. Does anybody know who the heavyweight champ was during that time? And there were plenty heavyweights who probably would have KOed him but they didn’t get the same recognition because their greatness didn’t matchup pound for pound.

    No.  Absent the special teams that the Eagles had over the last few years, the Mustangs should take the Eagles, just as I would expect Memorial or West Brook to take the Mustangs, yet that doesn't make them more of a football powerhouse than West Orange-Stark.
    Also, the Eagles have been on their current run for about 12-15 years longer than the Mustangs have.  The current run for the Eagles began about 1970 while the Mustangs didn't start their playoff roll until 1985.
    The Eagles haven't missed the playoffs in 32 years (1988).  The Mustangs have missed the playoffs 5 times (1992-although that was due to forfeit, 1999, 2001, 2002, 2003) in that same period.
    The Mustangs are a HUGE football powerhouse and just about any other team in this area wouldn't stack up.  But the Eagles aren't any other team.

    Lumberton recently won their first ever playoff game in basketball.
    The school board reacted swiftly by firing the super.  The community is well aware that winning starts at the top, so they wanted to nip "winning" in the bud.

    True. Have to get the community back into having a competitive athletic program instead of just trying to be good at a one or two sports. We see that a lot of smaller schools can do this well but somehow has been lost as you move up classifications. 
    It goes both ways too.  Football coaches/parents should encourage athletes to play other sports like basketball/baseball and/or track instead of just training year round for one sport.  The competitive mindset is a hell of a tool in athletics.

    Lets hope so.  The way HS sports is now most kids want to play ball no matter what sport they're playing.  The more kids a school signs, chances of more players coming out increases.
    Look at BC for example, labeled a baseball school because so many kids just play baseball because they have a chance of playing at the next level. I'd be willing to bet if BC got all of the baseball kids on the football field they would be better. Side note, Johnny Dishon and younger brother both played football at BC, 1 went to LSU and the other to Ole Miss for baseball. BRING BACK THE MULTI SPORT ATHLETE AND ATHLETICS WILL BECOME BETTER.

    To answer the question to the thread post, no. Coach Peevey is a stand up guy, with morals, and ethics. I believe if asked, he would simply say they play to win the game, regardless of the opponent in front of them, regardless of which division the Bruins are in. I believe they will go to DP with the game plan on doing whatever is necessary to beat the Deer. So, basically the same plan they've had since the start of district, in doing just enough to win. Beat Sterling in week 11, and let the cards fall where they may. Just my .02
