  1. Great accomplishment, but if she's really a player and wants to pursue basketball beyone high school. She's gotta get out of Daisetta. Move her to HJ and she can really test herself.
  2. Big question is this: If he takes the PNG job if offered, will he still have time to do his podcast "The Coaches Lounge"? It's been dormant since the summer, I'm assuming due to Football, and I am patiently waiting for new life to be breathed into it. Preferably with Matt Marshall muzzled. lol
  3. If he loses more than 2 regular season games, it will only be a 1-2 year thing. Lord have mercy, I hope this wasn't his motivation. WOS will now begin to fade back into a typical local program, and not a state power. The door is open for someone else to grab the mantle and run for SETX.
  4. You mean "Former Hull Daisetta Bobcat Head Coach Josh Finney", don't cha? lol
  5. Is it possible, that the best quarterback in Liberty County this season, was on the Hardin Hornet 8th grade team? If you've had a chance to see him play, you know how talented the kid is. Hull Daisetta Hardin Cleveland Liberty Dayton Tarkington I seriously think he would've started on most of these teams listed this past season if the opportunity had been presented. Dayton is the only question mark, and it's a big one. It's the offseason, we need stuff to talk about, so what do you guys think?
  6. There has to be more to this story. He still has a daughter in school at Jasper.
  7. I wouldn't leave Crosby right now regardless of what the money is. I really think the Cougs are primed for multiple deep runs and potential titles over the next 4-5 years, and once that starts happening, those assistants can choose any job they please.
  8. If they don’t hire Toby, it’s over for WOS. This generation of player and parent will “take their ball and go home” if things don’t go their way. If Toby isn’t hired, mark my words, there will be a mass exodus to LCM. LCM is the new pretty girl on the block, and everyone will want to be a part of the program on the rise, not the one struggling to forge a new identity. WOS pride means nothing to this new generation. You see it in college and Hs already throughout the nation and state of Texas. If the board messes this up, it will be nuclear. Do the right thing folks!
  9. Chad Taylor might also be a good hire for them. The guy can coach, he just didn’t have the talent he needed in Liberty. I believe he lives in Baytown already, which is a plus.
  10. Should be a pretty attractive job I’d think. They should’ve hired Coach Maan when they had a chance a few years ago. The guys tearing it up out in Lubbock, as we all knew he would!!
  11. If not meant to discredit his own merit in receiving the position at Baylor, why did it get brought up? A better way to say it would be to mention the success of his father and brother and applaud the continuation of that with the younger son. You didn't do that, you prefaced with "not to take anything away from him", and then made a statement that took something away from him.
  12. Yeah, opportunities forged by the hard work and success of his father, not only in the coaching profession, but in modeling what a successful coach looks like to both of his sons. His older brother was a star at Baylor as a QB, then was a successful HS coach which afforded him the opportunity to return and be hired at Baylor. Shawn was retained through a coaching transition so he must be pretty good at what he does also. Brian just won a state championship and knocked off both WOS and Carthage on the way to the trophy. But yeah, it's all about connections and opportunities others don't have. That's why he's a success. This argument is weak. The idea that fathers cannot forge a legacy which benefits not only himself and his immediate family, but also future generations of the family is insane. That's the goal of every father, to give their children opportunities either they didn't have, or had to break walls down to receive. No one is stopping anyone from breaking their own walls down and creating the same type of legacy for their family, but it's must easier, and more popular in 2021, to lay down, cry "privilege", and put your hand out to be given something you didn't work one second for. The children we are raising under this ideology have an interesting situation in front of them. Many of them will choose to be victims and will remain victims for the remainder of their lives. Some will see this for what it is, and understand that competition to get to the top will be less fierce than it has been in years past because the number of "victims" has increased. I hope some of them take the opportunity seriously and grab it. Congrats Coach Bell.
  13. No one is coming from a large school in DFW to take over WOS, and even if they do, they will build their credibility as a HC and leave the first chance the get at a bigger job back in DFW. WOS would do well to hire Foreman and attempt to continue the tradition of having a head coach plan to stay until retirement at WOS. If they inject themselves into the rat race, it could be a long tumble into mediocrity for the program. Toby is the safe hire. If he fails, then you can jump into the rat race. Just my opinion.
  14. I guess the rumor mill is quiet on this one. I am hoping Liberty can land someone who can begin to make some changes there. It begins with getting kids to buy into the program and the direction it wants to go. My fear is, even if they hire someone who can get them going in the right direction, the methods and grind needed to create that winning culture will be too much for the kids in the system. It will take a full scale culture change for Liberty to expect any success any time soon.
  15. Can tickets be purchased online for this one like last year or will they only be available at the gate?
  16. Of course he does. It's the way of the world these days. Forget the fact that Zach was sent home the night before a highly anticipated state championship rematch in the premier state for high school football in the nation, or that he was suspended earlier in the same season for behavioral issues. He is clearly being targeted for "some other reason".
  17. Why are Shiner and Refugio playin on Thursday night?
  18. To be fair, this project began under the Trump administration and is a JV with the Saudis.
  19. Not surprised to hear Tepper is using it....seems like a very Tepper thing to do. lol
  20. It just feels so unnecessary and takes away some of the mystique of that Mustangs D. Not many high schools have a moniker attached to a specific phase of their football team, and that is something that matters in high school. Eh, just something I was thinking about.
  21. Is this still a thing, or has everyone calmed down? I do not think I have ever heard this used by anyone for anything.
