    I guess time will tell.
    But let's take this 1 by 1:
    1.  "Scurry Ross doesn't even list him as a HC"
    First of all, the school is Scurry-Rosser, not "Scurry Ross."  Perhaps that would help you in your research (if you actually ever looked at anything aside from Max Pres) and you probably would have found this:

    This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up Which talks about Scurry-Rosser making the playoffs for the first time in a looooooong time.
    2.  "In WOS 2 play offs in 4 years where almost everybody goes, then winning only one round in 4 years doesn't set anyone on their heals."
    Compared to whom, Ronnie Anderson?  Perhaps aside from his legendary tenure and that of the recently departed Shea Landry, 2 playoffs in 4 years was a vast improvement over anything WO-S had been doing in baseball.  In both of those years, WO-S was the runner up, not the 4th place team as you implied, for if they would have been the 4th place team, THEY WOULDN'T HAVE MADE THE PLAYOFFS.  With your limited research skills, you may not have noticed that 4A (then 3A) did not take 4 teams to the playoffs until 2014, 9 years after Coach Westbrook's first stint at WO-S.  So you fail on this one not only for lack of research skills but lack of basic high school sports history which brings me to:
    3.  "First, I would never lower the standards of winning in Jasper baseball set by Mike Rodgers and Shawn Mixon to those of WOS."
    Now, I won't even try to slander Coach Rodgers or Coach Mixon and saying anything remotely about them would be just that.  In fact, if Cornel Thompson were to be able to throw a Hail Mary and pry Mixon out of that softball dugout in Woodville to fill the vacant baseball dugout in West Orange, I for one would not be disappointed.  But here is a newsflash, Coach Mixon is actually happy in Woodville and the chances of that happening are about the same as the chance of the homecoming that you are so craving for that will never happen. 
    However, please don't try to make the Bulldogs appear to be a Lakes area version of Bellaire....the facts belie that:
    This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up And if you remember correctly, the last team from SETX to be in the dugout for a Class 3A/4A state championship game wore "Mustangs" across their chest, not "Bulldogs."  And by coincidence one of those that wore that uniform was Stephen Westbrook.  A fact that you should recognize as Darrell Barbay, a guy who comes from a family who knows a bit about winning and has done a fair share of his own at Jasper High, did.  So please spare me the "Jasper standards are higher than everyone else" crap.  That is pretty much an insult to all of the other programs in the area, including about 20 guys on Merriman St. in Port Neches who currently have gold medals around their neck and a nice big trophy with gold plating to add to the trophy case. Now, sweetheart.  I know I am not going to sway you from your opinion as your hatred (and yes, that is the correct characterization) seems to run much deeper than his record.  I don't know if you are the parent of a little Johnny who didn't get to play the position he wanted or didn't get as many at bats as he thought he should have.  Or if you are related to someone at Jasper ISD that you think got a raw deal.
    But you want to try and dismiss my laying out of the facts as BS?  You better bring a lunch 'cause ask around, I pretty good at this research stuff.

    If that's the case, then why did he take the job in the first place? Nothing you mentioned is the fault of the kids there who undoubtedly are gutted that their coach chose to leave them in the lurch. No matter who they hire this late, they will get the short end of the stick during the upcoming season. You can't defend Dale here. If the money is an issue, wait until next year or leave in March like everyone else. Do not leave in July!

    Yes he did. As I said earlier in this thread, to leave this late for an assistants gig is garbage. He did this same thing to Kountze once. No one should hire this man for a head job ever again!

    WOS should never have to leave the triangle to fill that schedule. Between PNG, Central, Westbrook, Nederland, Lumberton, Vidor, Jasper, and PAM, someone should be willing to play WOS yearly. If I was PNG, this game would always be on my schedule. Why is everyone so afraid of the competition?

    In the last few years, I have made this exact point on this message board about more than a few teams being unwilling (downright DECLINING) to play WO-S, while they had the opportunity to agree to play. Several posters did not believe me, but now we see the information has gone public. Coach T has never been one to toot his own horn or try to get public attention for himself. But since the Bmt Enterprise decided to do this article, now everyone knows what at least a few of us have known for years. This same problem has existed for WO-S since the Dan Hooks years, but the difficulty to schedule teams has never been higher than it is now.

    Like grad said, the biggest problem is having to play 6 non-district games.  Most schools only play 2-3 and at most 4.  That leaves them looking for other schools that only have 4 or 5 teams in their district to schedule with.  I think all districts should have at least 8 teams, especially if you're going to take 4 to the playoffs.

    I'm pretty sure I heard one of the Newton coaches say that they are playing WOS in 2018 and 2019 seasons which is awesome in my opinion.

    Well, to be fair.  All of the above teams have fewer non-district games than the Mustangs.  If the new alignment somehow creates smaller 5A districts (which it may or may not do) that might create some more opportunities.
