I agree 112%. Some criticism is needed at times. To be clear, the link was posted by a staff member. We make mistakes too. I take full responsibility for not following rules, allowing, and instigating others to do the same. My apologies to all.

I've been wondering how they improved to B too. Test scores, graduation rates, reading and math proficiency, all seem close to the same. Although I haven't done a side by side comparison. Did the state of Texas lower expectations after the pandemic? I keep hearing that kids are so far behind because of remote learning. Maybe someone in education can explain it. I don't know how it could be different under H. Less than 2 months into the new school year. Have we had our first set of grades yet? Did we lose student athletes that couldn't maintain grades? I do know that our school board approved 2 new job descriptions at the next meeting after hiring H. Athletic Academic Coordinator and Strength and Conditioning Coach.

Would they even be eligible this season?

This games over. 🔐

I tell you, WOS alumni are out there everywhere making a difference in kids lives. He came back to give a speech to the team a couple weeks ago.

He even applied at Jasper this past spring. Anything to get back to Dan R Hooks stadium. Even if it's on the wrong side of the field.

He also had a day like a combine. Where many college coaches/scouts would come evaluate talent at Central. But not just Central. Kids from all over the area got a chance too. That always stood out to me. That he cared enough for another schools player to get a chance. Even if it meant one of his player didn't get a scholarship. That says a lot about him.

^^ THIS ^^

It wasn't his idea. That is exactly the type of coaches we had. To utilize the players natural abilities and Excell in the process. I heard the one about the coaches making big money off him and others. Big money? Idk bout that. But did anyone hear that not too long after we graduated in 99, college recruiting blew up at WOS. That's when you started seeing Franks, Haynes, Deon, Earl, and more getting major college offers. Surprise surprise... that also when Toby came to Coach and was leading the track team to state championships.

We got a taste of it last year in Nederland. The rain wasn't the only thing that fell that night. Waiting under the bleachers for the rain to stop, the true die hard fans were in disbelief of the 1st half. Now the first half of this season going the same way. When we discussed the lack of leadership that night. We didn't know who was officially in charge. The system was set in place so well by the foundation that we should never have to rebuild. Only regroup and wait for the younger kids to gain game time experience.

That's how it is here. Mainly because of the success from former HOF coaches. Generations of kids have grown up learning the system and giving 112% to it. Now their kids and grandkids have to go thru this. There are so many alumni that would have loved this golden, oops, it's a SILVER & BLUE opportunity. But never had a chance. The backroom deals that everyone, even people here that know H, seemed to know about even before a list of applicants was public was a joke. Remember this article... [Hidden Content] I feel bad for Hickman. He could've avoided this. We believed that was his intention.

I cannot condone this, but I understand his pov. Yep. It's like that. What he says he means. No lie, he has done everything that he said. And will continue to push this issue. I know all the people he spoke on. And all of them I've spoke with agree. I had a 5 minute speech prepared too. Should've been right there behind Eric and Doobie. But life happened that day and I couldn't get my voice heard for those I represent. Most of us all jumped on the bandwagon and supported everyone in hopes that the man would continue the historic tradition that is WOS Football. Now that is in question. Record in 2018 was also 2-3 after the 1st 5 games. But we saw progress, halftime adjustments, changes for the better. For those that want to wait til after district, or after the playoffs, or after basketball season, or after graduation, or after another 6 years here. To decide if it's gonna work. Hey I'll be here then too. Like KT said have a good Saturday, at least what's left of it.

Highest score this week was 21 @bp141103, @AggiesAreWe, @Longhorn63, @navydawg31 Also if anyone claims @59n Sports. I'll add the points to the old name.

I know. But there are some that think it could happen.... Not a snowballs chance 🔥

Oh really. And you think they'd listen to him now?

The title should've been the "District Champion" Nobody realized this wasn't about the Defensive Coordinator.

And most of those numbers were all district last year. With the potential to be all state with a trip to Dallas being predicted. And that would've help them tremendously with recruitment and scholarships.

Yes it would

What were the final passing numbers?

Maybe a better defense scheme and more pressure on QB, and the throw never gets there. We could what if all night. Changes were made and we are seeing the benefits of losing. Credit Silsbee with everything they deserve. But just as well, discredit where it is due. Did anyone hear the announcer predicting the plays?

It could also be the Year of the Cardinal

I think there was at least 2 of those
