It's like a boxing match where last year PN-G faced the defending world heavyweight championship got a knockdown in the early rounds but the champion came out on top in the end and this is the rematch. I really feel PN-G has to work on blocking this week because in last year's state championship game it was atrocious after taking a 12 point lead. You can’t take your foot off the gas and hope to beat SOC PN-G has to play all 4 quarters to win state 

The problem is that the pay gap is not small, and every coach knows that it is only a matter of time till the "great community" turns on them. 
There are two kinds of coaches: Those who have been fired, and those who are going to be fired. 

What are the realistic expectations at Orangefield?   Answer that!
They don’t have the kids to play 4 rounds deep on a yearly basis whether they run the slot-T, wishbone, or spread.   I’m not sure scheme matters all that much.
There’s always a chance of making a great hire and him improving the program.   But they don’t pay much, and he wouldn’t stay long when the bigger programs come calling.
It’s not a knock on Orangefield kids.    I’ve got as much Orangefield blood running through me as anyone in Orange County.   It’s just the truth as I see it.

They (UIL) need to rotate the state championships because it would give the other schools a fair shot them 3 just driving 20 mins. The other schools driving over 4 1/2 hours that plays a major factor.

I think there’s some animosity between the 2 coaches.   Peevey said, “The rivalry needs a break for a while”…. Something to that effect.
 
He knows he will out last Hickman and he will put WOS back on the schedule in 2 years.

This might not have happened if Hickman would have been more cordial; refused to sign off on students and refusing to swap home games shot himself in the foot. He should have put some effort into a local relationship. 

I can finally say this and really mean it: maybe Refugio should've played better defense 👀☕ 
 
IYKYK. 

1st order of business:  change the priority from baseball to football..... 

I agree.   He clearly knows how to run a program, but IMO he’s one of the best offensive minds in high school football.   They are so multiple and diverse in what they do, yet they execute it all so well.

Bellville stil hasn’t played anyone. Silsbee is no different than WOS and Madisonville. Looks like Bellville will not “play anyone” till they get to Carthage.

The imperative now is to not get any basketball players hurt.

I'm not surprised......yet. 

Oh yea.  They gettin #10.  Accept it. 

The only team that had a chance to beat them, just got beat by them!
Carthage winning it this year, the next, and the next. 

PG was loaded, and unless Carthage moves to D1, which I wish they would no one will beat them.
Next year could be their best team ever.

Maybe.  But Scott Surratt is Scott Surratt.  It’s not an accident he’s about to have to start putting rings on his toes.  He has great players for sure but good grief. 

Carthage is still Carthage. 

Athletically, Silsbee is superior, but Bellville has the advantage up front on both sides.
Can Bellville stay ahead of schedule and stay out of 3rd and 6+?
 
Will Silsbee utilize Miller all over the field and get him 15+ touches.   I think that’s what the game comes down to.   I don’t think Silsbee will be able to run it effectively, so can they throw the ball, and get Miller touches out of the backfield?  Will they run the wildcat with Miller like Jasper did Smith?
Will Silsbee beat themselves like they usually do in the playoffs.   An undisciplined team is an undisciplined team.   A Tiger don’t change its stripes.   Going off history, Silsbee will self destruct.   Will it be this week or next?

Correct, this senior group went 3-6-1 when they were freshman so them losing this early don’t surprise me at all. Another thing a lot of folks fail to realize is that Katy has had most of their success in the D2 bracket which is huge step down in competition level compared to the D1 bracket. Hence why Katy ISD recently redrew the lines to ensure Katy goes D2 from here on out.

I think that's an outstanding idea and it's not like the school couldn't afford it based on the triple story press boxes and multi million dollar event centers that are going up on campus. The problem is that Dodge probably wouldn't agree to it if he could only pick a Black man and that's what is behind this whole charade. 
It's funny, I was talking to one of my closest Mustang buddies (who happens to be a black man) and we never cared what color our coach was when we were playing. Most of our Mustang brothers want the program we bled for back. It's doesn't matter in the least what race the man is. We've never cared about that. It's the outsiders that have infiltrated this community or people who never knew what it was to be a Mustang that have injected this worldly concept into our program. It's like a cancer.

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.
