  1. WOS school board

    in High School Football

    Posted

    If I am not working or busy with my daughters health care, I intend to. Be at the WOCCISD Board meeting Sept 30, to voice my discontent at how our School District did not attain top level scholastic ratings, and the train wreck of the WOS football program, both are the responsibility of Ricky Harris. I encourage all of you concerned, to be there too. I have written a letter and emailed it to all the board members. If any of you would like to see it, pm me.

    Shouldn't a coach at least be given a full year or two before everyone wants him gone?

    As for Silsbee, I do worry a little about them towards the end of the game still. If this game is close late, the Mustangs might can take it.

    The deal is, he came into a program that had been going for almost 40 years and compiled the winningest record in Texas, and changed it, and is giving up more points than ever. Why would anyone change a program that has been so successful?

    Sorry if u thought I was calling you a racist. Not my intention. Just had to get it out there that it's not a racial issue.

    I have done the research. I know exactly what you're saying. And I plan to continue to organize the community when the chance comes again. All for not last spring. But this new record could turn the tide.

    You can bet that whoever is being voted on, in the next school board election, should not be feeling real comfortable.

    That has been a problem as too. Recently they spent money to rename the field though. But nothing to benefit the kids on the diamond. Other than a role model who's name they recognize.

    It is my opinion, yea I know they all stink. That the admin wants to change the culture of WOS. Not so much emphasis on one sport. But also not so much emphasis on sports period. The new gym isn't for the basketball team to hang banners, if you know what I mean.

    Yeah, before long they will have 2 or 3 names for every sidewalk and hallway in the school. Another School Board mistake. The added that guy's name to the football field, who never coached a team on that field and had nothing to do with that school. Hey, the football and baseball fields were already named in someone's honor, and that is how it should have stayed.

    Last time I looked there are sure a lot of folks working on chemical row. People from Orange are buying homes and new cars, maybe on your end things are not going well.

    Few of the people working on Chemical Road are living in Orange. They are living in LCM, LC, OF, BC, Nederland, Beaumont, on and on.

    Back up just a lil bit. It's not Wallace. That was a whole nother problem in another time. We have moved passd that. This not a racial issue. This is a whats best for the kids issue.

    I do agree it starts at the top. 

    No, I am not racist, and I call it like I see it. Yes, we are a long way from Wallace, but that is where we are headed. Go to the schools and look at the kids. Not much diversity. Look at the school board, 1 white board member, look at the Superintendent and who he has brought in. Look at the schools ratings. After you do all that, you will be able to figure out why these people working higher paying jobs are not bringing their kids to West Orange-Cove Consolidated School District.

    Well, for those who only ride when winning is good smh. I won't abandon  the Stangs not now and not in Silsbee.  Mustangs4life be in or be OUT period!

    Don't misunderstand me, as I am behind WO and want nothing but improvement. Decline starts from the top. We need new blood on the school board, a new superintendent and a new athletic director.

    Hard to see the big picture from 100 miles away. Most of those folks drive in, and most of us drive out. The new plant about to be built. Money yes, population growth no. I actually think it's gonna be worse for us. If people move in to work they're gonna buy in BC, OF, or LCM. Not to mention our stadium is gonna stink like some others I've been to that are close to refineries.

    One thing that does keep people here is the program. Now there's another option. Peevey knew what was coming his way. Smartest move I've seen in a long time.

    And the "in or OUT" comment? I've always been IN. Even when we weren't winning state every year. So have others here on this site who have the rings to prove it. They're not happy with the situation either. There's also another prominent citizen, and former player, that WE see on TV representing US in various ways. I haven't seen him at a game yet either.

    So when I walked out early in the 3rd against PNG, it hurt to know that they had let us all down. They as in those in charge of making the decisions. Either the coach who proclaimed to keep the tradition the same. Or the DC that didn't know our system. Or the Super that wouldn't take any recommendations from the committee. Or those elected officials who know what's best, and don't care about the voices of the constituents.

     

    Anyway back to this game... is Shaw gonna be back? Heard he was injured with his ankle wrapped after the Newton game.

    You are right about the population moving away from Orange, even if they work here. They do not want their kids in WO schools. There is no diversity in the school, the athletics, the school board or the administration. West Orange has turned into another Wallace. First thing needs to happen is at least half the school board has to go. The superintendent has to go, and his lackey he brought in from Silsbee has to go. People need to show up on elections to the school board, to begin with. Let's get this done. Bring diversity back to West Orange and the whole community will profit.

    Hello everyone..

    We have put into place a better way for us to keep scores! Every Friday Night (or Thursday/Saturday) individual game threads are posted which give us a space to discuss the ongoing games and to post game and score updates.

    We now have a way for you to update the score on the title of the topic and on the scoreboard itself...

    See Scoreboard Here

    When you post a score update in the game thread--please post the score using this format (command)

    For a Game that's still in progress:

    !!score:visitor score/home score/quarter/minutes/seconds

    So Let's say Alvin (visiting team) was Trailing Beaumont United (home team) 24 to 7  with 6:32 left in the 3rd Quarter

    You would post

    !!score:7/24/3/6/32    and that's going to update the scoreboard

     

    For a Game that's gone final:
     !!final:visitor score/home score

    Let's say Alvin (visiting team) was lost to Beaumont United (home team) 24 to 7 

    You would post

     !!final:7/24


    This is a work in progress and we will be continuing to make this better in an effort to better serve you--the fans of sports in Southeast Texas!
