Where do i find the video  broadcast on kjas, i cant seem to find it.

They said it will show up on the site around 7 on the front page.

Yes sir. KJAS

They do video, too? 

My thoughts, if we don't learn to contain the edge we're going to get pummeled again. Basic defensive fundamental that has seemed to elude us.

Do we know if this will have a live stream?

That doesn’t always matter. Sometimes you just wanna taste a little blood. 

The blood tastin needs to come next week.

I think the decline will get worse.   The discipline, toughness, conditioning, will all further decline as the years go by.

 

It was gonna be hard to replace CT with just anyone.   It was gonna take an extensive, open-minded, state wide search for the best. They didn’t do that, and they will continue to pay the consequences.

Right on the money.

As long as the current superintendent is there that’s not gonna happen. 

I'm not so sure. With the shenanigans he pulled making this hire, it wouldn't surprise me if he were to put Hick on the chopping block to try and save face. This is the type of thing that sticks with you, even when you move on.

WOS isnt very good. Thats the story.

Truth. The problem is, this group of seniors have always been very good. So, what has changed....🤔

This is normally where WO-S conditioning takes over and wins it for the Stangs.  Wouldn't be surprised if the final was 28-13 Stangs, but they sure better get the offense going.

This is not the same WOS.

KOGT.

Check my post above

Wow completely missed that. Thanks!

So, no stream of this game at all?

2-3 vs la marque

93 95 97

1-3 vs CE king

89 90 91 all first round. And that was right after 3 straight trips to state.

So we have lost before. But not this week.

WOS by at least 1

We've beaten LM 3 times. I think we're 3-3 now.

Interesting pov from coach X. Lol. There's not to many schools that beat us 7 times. 

There's no coach that has played us 9 times and won 7.

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...

I feel bad for Hickman. He could've avoided this. We believed that was his intention.

Right on. I heard Hickman was going to be the next HC at WOS back in 2020. How can that be when Thompson hadn't even decided to retire, yet? 

We SHOULD NOT be rebuilding. I keep hearing that. We had a ton of talent returning. This should have been a continuation, not a rebuilding.

This game could have easily been worse if not for some stupid Tiger penalties.  No disrespect to the kids but this was the worst team I’ve ever witnessed from WOS.  Is this just a young team?  If it’s just youth I understand.  This is the first Wos-Silsbee game where I’ve never really felt threatened by their offense.  

8/8 return on both sides of the ball. Not young. 26 PPG. School record. That all ill say to avoid being "unsupportive".

Shaw is a GTD. Its not certain that he won't play.

KT, bro that's about right. I've said it so many times before. Some people never happy with anything. Same ones hating T were dancing in stands at at&t. Same ones blaming him for not running Gales enough... wish he was back. Now that you got what you been pushing for. That isn't working out to good either. And that's the rant you put out there, full of personal attacks? Come on man. Some of us told you be careful what you wish for.

Amen, brother.

We don't lose to get a better bracket

Lol... I know what we do. My point is 4th place is the better side of the bracket.

I got it wrong then. I thought Hickman had gone back to Silsbee a couple years ago. Sorry about that. I look for Silsbee to get the win, and WOS will struggle against Lumberton and H-F. The others are wins. I don't see them going more than 2 deepin the playoffs IF they get into post season play. 

 

Lumberton?

We can't play bad enough to not make the playoffs in this district. That being said, if we don't beat Silsbee then you might as well come in 4th place. That's the good side of the R3 bracket and would give us the best chance at getting another shot at Silsbee in the 3rd round (if we improve enough to get there).

You and I have spoke privately and I agree with you. Is a bit of a head scratcher.

But, like I said it's still too early to call.
 

Yes sir we have and I appreciate your willingness to admit this is a strange move. 

As a Mustang fan and knowing how other Mustang fans think, time is up. We don't lose to Silsbee (yes, I know we have, but that's the mentality). I'm saying that "tongue and cheek", but really... We DONT lose to Silsbee. 

I'll also say I appreciate your willingness to be objective about the situation since you're both Silsbee natives and not jumping to his defense (which I know is hard). Heck, I'm pulling for him. He needs to make adjustments so let's see what happens. But, it's kind of like my kids, sometimes. I'm always on their side, but sometimes they sure make things harder than they need to be.

I'm just saying, theres things CT did with his Defense that no one else did. Ive talked to enough Offensive coaches that have game planned for it, and they hated it. I'm sure Hickman felt he had good enough athletes to run any kind of defense, and he would go with a Defense his new coaches wanted to run. And I'm guessing he has so much on his plate as a new AD/HC, that he is not as involved with the Defensive coaching as you might think.  To make my point compare WOS def stats under CT to any other team in America running the 50 defense, or the years Hickman ran it at Silsbee.

I understand and I appreciate the insight.

And yes I fully agree T had "nuances" that were a little abnormal. (Try teaching his DE/Rover responsibilities to a 7th grader). He was a defensive master mind.

So, he is too busy to institute T's 50 mid season? What's the answer? It's not to sacrifice a season and get back to it. I happen to know the talent pool will drop after this season for a year or two, so if you give up on this season your going to lose 2 and I don't know that they'll give him that long.

Silsbee ran the 50 while Hickman was there. Hickman played in the 50 at Silsbee. He knows it.

Ok, I thought so but didn't want to say that and be wrong.

I'm curious about when the change was made. Could it have been the day after the board decision? T was still around for a lil bit. Were the kids working and learning the new system during the spring? Did it help them in 7 on 7 during the summer? Or was this started first day of 2 a days? 

So many questions...

Why not start the new system in the off season when the staff has fully evaluated the upcoming talent?

My guess is that the decision was made after the hire and the alignment went in during athletic periods. The problem with that is, our kids are so flippin athletic that everything looks good when you're running it against wind. You don't really know how it's going work until you line up against a good opponent. 

Just now, JaspD55 said:

The WOS def under CT, was a unique one, and the architects of it are gone. If he wants to change back, that would have to be done after the season, and have current def coaches meet with some of the old guys , and learn how to coach it. If it was easy, then every highschool in SET would be running that Defense.

That's a fair perspective. 

Again, he was there 6 years previous and had a load of players coming back. Wouldn't it be prudent to learn before the master left?
