10-12 in the last 2 years.   The experiment has not worked.   By WOS standards, it has failed miserably.
In the previous 10 years, WOS had lost 20 games.   They are on pace to lose 60 games in the same timeframe under this regime.
They have to make a change.   Things will not get better, and IMO, will gradually get worse, the further you get away from the Hooks/Thompson eras and culture.
Unless he schedules a bunch of cupcakes to pad the win column in pre-district, 5 and 6 losses will be the new norm.

It was all a pipe dream.  One last grasp of holding out hope, and onto the past.  Most everyone knew WOS was not invincible, including their fans, but I believe out of the last 2 years, last nights effort was the true wake up call.
No one will ever fear them anymore, and very few will respect them.   You can respect the past, and not the NOW.
WOS as we knew them for 40 years is over until a change is made.

Well u have to expect that.when u hire a man with 0 head coaching experience.and was only the dline coach that didn't have any say on the defense.never knew what made this program great. And bcz, u hire a supt that's not from here.and doesn't care what happens to this program.writing was on the wall.this same man yr 2 will be better. Makes u wonder if he was paid to destroy the program.they not hurting the community.theyre only hurting the kids.

Don't let the school board slide on this,  they have some blame in this also SMH

I guess that they shut that triple option down!  I hope this get the WOS coach out of there.

I'm glad I didn't have time to watch what took place.when u bring in outsiders that wasn't gud in the sport that went got a degree to coach doesn't mean u know how to coach.too busy trying to teach a scheme instead of showing them basic things.when a team runs a wing T. HOPEFULLY Someone on the school board does the right thing.kids deserve better

I predicted this when CT retired   Well he was pushed out ! Harris and Hickman need to hit the road, this experiment had failed miserably , but there might be some folks that are still happy . This is embarrassing for the school and the community , I feel really bad for these kids . They are the ones really paying the price !

Get better???? How?? 1977-2021 = 1. Losing season 2022-2023 = 2 losing seasons. What is this staff going to do to get better? I don’t see it. Why can’t it get back to where it was before? It absolutely can get back to where it was and it starts with finding a qualified coach with a winning track record. We don’t have to settle for this. You hire a really good coach and you can have this program at the top once again. Nothing less than exceptional is acceptable! 

WOS has quit. Body language is terrible. This breaks my heart for our kids. They deserve better. School administration has let them down. The WOS football program has always been a source of pride in our little community. The program has brought together people from all different walks of life. It has been a program that brings people together. Orange Texas has no shortage of great athletes and families. It would be a coaches dream to be able to have an endless supply of great athletes year end and year out.  Time for administration to stop the dismantling of our tradition and get it right. Find a QUALIFIED coach with a track record of winning. No more experiments.

Please let this coaching staff go and find the best QUALIFIED coaches money can buy. Our kids and community deserve better. This is completely unacceptable! Absolutely destroying Mustang tradition in less than two years. The foundation of WOS football has always been hard nosed defense, innovative offense, and disciplined play. Their conditioning was second to none. Flat embarrassing!

No thank you!! Let him move back home so he can get the luv he deserves.

West Orange will take care of Bellville, then give Hickman a new 10 year contract. Just watch.

Yup this QB has helped win games all year now people wanna abandon him…

It's all abt assignments.even if they're young on the line.if the defense doesn't know how to line up and know there keys.it takes inexperience out the equation.

Cuero. Has a big Oline. You will see the same type of plays. Just watch

Can H put another shutout on his resume ?
He has 3 now. Maybe that'll help when he applies for the BC job this winter.

I got chippyness in this one. 😁

WOS vs their own Coaches?
Bridge City vs winning?

Absolutely correct!! I'm truly glad someone sees the bigger picture.its exactly what's happening to w.o. and not to throw shade at the coaching staff.but, they're a lil delusional on how they're supposed to be getting better.no matter the yr.they have never given up this many points week end and week out. Something that really hadn't happened in over 35 yrs.he says they're getting better.i don't see how.

Players + Coaching + Competition level = Success
Any 2 of the 3 can lead to a great year.  Maybe not a state championship year, but good year.  Just having 1 of the 3 isn't enough.  It takes good players.. and it takes preparation/strategy. But that wouldn't be enough in a juggernaut district/region/classification.  It happens every two years... Same relative coaching staff, a lot of the same players, but reclassification may turn zeros into heroes or vice versa. 
Just like I've seen good coaches have mediocre years because of lost talent or even graduation.  Or injuries... And not that great of coaches can have pretty good years if they have a lot of talent or are in a weaker level of competition.
It's crazy to think that there aren't a lot of variables.  But I will never be convinced that all it takes is great coaching.  MOST coaches are practicing stuff that is designed to be successful.  And MOST coaches are taking stuff from coaches/teams that are successful.

Who teaches the players how to block, how to defend the pass, what they are supposed to do in different situations, who inspires them? Oh , that’s right they’re born with that knowledge.
