You make valid points. The problem is some of the same people who oversee the decision-making process within the district are the problem. I know that the head coach at WOS appears to be a friend of yours, personally I don’t know him. I knew the previous coaches at the school, and many in the community knew them too. I’m not sure how the decision was made to hire any coaches within WOS, but many were not happy about it. (They have the right to be like it or not). When people are asked to approve bond money, and pay taxes, they should have a say in what their tax dollars are paying for. Many people who have made comments about WOS business really have no idea of what needs to be done to fix the situation in my beloved hometown. They just make jabs because WOS is 90% African American. The educational issues at WOS can only be dissected by the people who live there, not by outsiders. My niece finished at WOS in May will be 2 years, she got a partial scholarship to go to UT, hook em horns! She finished #5 in her class; she is still making A’s and will be a junior this coming December. There are others doing the dang thing at other D1 universities too. Part of the solution IMO to help cure most socially disadvantaged situations, in all of Orange is to re-build the community, talk and listen to the people who live there. Maybe then they will not be so openly upset about the hiring process of coaches. (GET)business opportunities, more jobs, just invest in the people who live in Orange.

Not you too!!!. You know at all school there are under achiever yet you guys never talk about that SMH. Let's see this is a football thread and maybe that is why his answers are related to football. Talking badly about the kids at WOS educational scores is and I quote "Good Christ this is getting old..." 😉 "

I'm hoping that the guys on both sides of the ball leave their attitudes off the field, and just play hard nosed football. History shows that these two teams really do not like each other.

Profanity is not allowed just saying. Your main point IMO was I am not a WOS fan. Therefore, you would not know how our community feels about losing. IT IS NOT AACCEPTABLE!

Can you give me the Lottery numbers for tonight😆

IMO this is not an EXPERIMENT!! this was just the wrong choice period!

So this should be year 2. Hopefully! People are going to stop attending the games.

He is kin folk, I would support him for sure. How is coach Foreman doing this year? I have not been keeping up with his wins or loses lately.

Sigh!

#1 Do coaches get more than one year contracts, or do get one renewal per year, just like teachers do?

This was torture to see the kids fight so hard, and to give 58 points in a game , that has not happened in so long, I can't remember. It's very hard to see the program in this state. What ever defense we are running, everybody has figured it out.

I'm out of words for how this game was played.

Good Luck Newton rest of season

Newton friendly Refs. The big one can't count his steps. SMH

Question, Does Newton have a 9th grade and JV football teams?

We still have 2 other QB's that are capable, #16, and #23

Well, we don't pay much attention to outsiders and their thoughts about silver and blue, especially, if you are NOT part of our success. However, carry one and we still don't care.

Welp, maybe coach T. will put write a whole big ole chapter about him reaching out to current coaches and, if they refused his help. I can't wait until his book is out.

Hum that is interesting to know. Back when I went to WOS it was said that our district would give money to other schools. I'm not sure how true that is, maybe someone else may know better than me. The community is tired of not being heard, and are voting school board members out slowly. Eventually, changes are going to be made, when TEA rolls out their new ratings.

IMO coach Garrett should be calling the offensive plays.

I do get it dj. My family is up set too, we are huge WO-S fans, My cousins grandson is a running back for us, is why I'm trying to stay positive for him and the team. But I do get it!

OFF Topic but I see JK Dobbins still doing awesome things. I'm surprised that the team does not want C.T. to help makes no sense to me SMH.

If there is another Barlow on the team...don't know😀

Any word on our QB? I hope he is not hurt. WOS Fam let's keep the spirit as best as we can for the sake of the team. They do read our comments. Let's keep them up-lifted and support the whole team coaches and all at this point.

Hey Reagan. I feel a little better about the loss but not much😏
