  1. Very disappointing season again, unfortunately if something doesn't change, I expect the same results for years to come.  I'm not under the impression that we should win state every year, or even the district title.  Dan Hooks and Cornel Thompson are coaching legends, that are not easily replaced.  However, first round exits, two years in a row should be unacceptable.  In my opinion, there should either be a coaching change, or Coach Hickman needs to make major changes on how he's running the football program. 

  2. Silsbee always has speed...they usually can run with us...not sure how the new Silsbee coach's system is going this year for the Tigers, maybe they're going through some growning pains?  Hoping for a good game...WOS defense needs to stop the run and continue to get pressure on the opposing QBs, force those turnovers, and WOS kick returners hopefully continue to give the WOS offense the short field, get those points on the board often...jmo

  3. I hope the WOS defense can get pressure early on the Ned QB, which can lead to some INTs and possibly points.  I think special teams can be big for WOS too, get that short field or maybe take one back for a TD...Should be a good game...good luck to both teams...

  4. One of the toughest losses in PNG history IMO..... That was the best High School game I have ever attended.... 89 season... Class of 90.... Back and forth see saw affair... You couldn't fit another person or television crew in the place.... And the fog rolled in late... I stood on the sidelines as a freshman........ Malone was cool about that, he would ship the underclassmen to the game in another bus and let us fill up the sidelines........ WOS was the team for us... Back then we destroyed Nederland every year so it was not much of a rivalry until Neauman arrived...... Plus you had to love ole Dan Ray.... Man he could work a field, and refs......lol... But Malone was just as good....

    I was in the 7th grade when that game was played.  To this day i have yet to see the stadium come close to being that full.  I think it holds close to 9000...there was at least 12,000 people for that game....there was not a seat left anywhere in the stands....not an exageration...People were on the track...on both sides...That had to be the biggest crowd in Hooks Stadium history...

  5. you happy with that?? looks nice to have all those "numbers" like that in order. let me tear this down for you. so roughly 25 years ago back to back titles were won congrats. (prior to that, when was the last time?). okay so, lets throw out EVERYTHING 86 and 87 because all that is doing is adding fluff. they won the  title so the rest will come with that. so after the titles, 3 times they made the final appearances(look at the years between the span) four semi's after the titles again look at the span. seems like every 5-10 years. the bulk of those numbers are 1st and 2nd rounds. this is what i'm getting at. this would be impressive to me if the semi and finals had just as many as the first and second round. lets be honest, making the playoffs was not that difficult. maybe back when it was only the district champ went. most of us will settle for the bottom and think that we are state powerhouses.

    Im satisfied with our record...I was there most of those years and witnessed the blood, sweat and tears that comes with having a record like that...Do i wish we won state every year? Absolutely! but thats not realistic...2 state championships and 5 title appearances since 1986? Ill take that any day! And i love the fact that our boys are still trying hard every year to get that 3rd one for the school...If WOS record doesn't impress you, then you dont want to see it...and thats fine...everyone is entitled to their opinion.

    WOS gets the #1 preseason ranking for the first time since 2004 and that season didn't end up so well.  Lots of usual suspects as always.

    ​I wonder if these rankings were done before or after Trey Baldwin left?  I still think we will have a good team that deserves a top 5 ranking, but losing Baldwin was a major loss for us, so I'm not sure about that #1 ranking.

  7. Yes I have had people tell me that, I do not think it hits him, nor does any of the 3 WOS players that are right on top of it when it happens as they touch the ball down and head to the side line. You also must remember that WOS sends their Defense out as HJ sends their offense out. I know WOS players and Coach T well enough that even if there was a hint that the ball hit him the players would have been all over the ball and Coach T would have been having a stroke arguing his point.

     

    All in all the punt did not change the outcome of this game broke a little momentum but in general WOS played a near flawless game and we did not.

     

    As I yell from the stands on EVERY punt.....GET AWAY FROM IT.... run to the field house or concession stand...but our players are drawn  to the ball like a fat kid to cake.

    You're thinking of Dan Hooks...he would have lost his mind arguing...but Coach Thompson hardly ever argues with the officials...I wish he would argue more...but that's just my opinion. 

  8. Some of you people are unreal. We will win only one district game? So you give us a chance against Liberty, I assume? And we'll lose to HF, OF, HJ? My goodness...so you only feel good about teams who are undefeated? Must be a miserable existence. 

    It must be huh griff? we are soooo bad we lost to two sorry teams apparently...Foster and Newton...lmao

  9. Been a WO fan forever, but I see some issues. When they get to QF, at that level of competition, they need more weight on the line. How many times has Dallas been running for his life or sacked tonight? haha, See what I am talking about?

    So on Monday you are gonna go tell Coach Thompson he needs to get rid of the Mustang Mile so we can get pass the quarterfinals?
