I’m sure WOS sounded pretty weird at first too.. just like Little Cypress-Mauriceville.. we’re just all used to it by now.

Nothing 'official' until tonight but most in the know already know the name, colors, and mascot....

It would have and I think "they" didn't want the backlash from other communities outside the communities that the kids come from.  But it's ok to use any other Presidents name...

Just a lack in creativity involving the school name,  none of the names made it including 
Preston Shaw HS
Jackie Cotton HS
Barak Obama HS (would prob have won by a land slide) 
 
Central-Ozen (BCO) Maroon and Gold Knights will probably get the nod in my opinion though

Really? I heard Drillers and Oilers were the favs since Hurricanes got shot down, but Maroon and Gold is the combo they like from the conversation

Looking forward to this announcement and hoping that everybody in BISD is on board with the choices.

Like i stated in a previous Conversation, and the same goes for the merger school..
They better get a good coach,  cause St.Pius is not a team you want to see your first game in school history lol..
5star QB
2 4star WR 
And a 4star CB 
And that's just in the class of 2019
Most schools dont even see that many stars in a 10year period 
 
All and all i really hope BISD makes a good hire, im tired of all the negativity surrounding this school district just cause of a few individuals ..This could really go a long way into all the negativity going down

Your absolutely right
This generation of kids is very weak, but the reason they're like that is becaues of the parents. Parenting got bad and kids got worse. Think they're entitled to everything and don't have to work hard anymore for wat they want. 
Great post

And to quote Coach Thomas : “I would love to have the job I feel like I have what it takes to establish a winning program. I understand some may think I’m too young or inexperienced but experience comes from learning and every coach has to go through it. I know all these kids and have great relationships with them and I myself played for one of the best coaches ever. My mentors like Coach Boutte, Coach Gamble have taught me a lot about life and basketball. Whom ever gets the job will have a hell of task at hand and if it is not me I JUST WANT WORK WITH THE KIDS in some capacity whether it be freshman,jv or whatever is asked.” 

I have said it once and I’ll say it again winning cures everything. I hope BISD makes a big splash hire. But who ever they hire if he comes in and wins right away all the negativity will wipe away.

Maybe,
only reason i can disagree is becaues its Basketball...Kids want to play Basketball no matter who the coach is, now granted, if one of thoes coaches do get the job, they will have familiarity due to being in this area,  and also it wont take as long for the kids to buy in, due to them knowing of either coach but i dont think kids will quit just cause you get a good coach from El Paso (just an example) ..Basketball is a game.the kids love specially being from Beaumont where the kids are actually really good at it,  not to mention they'll probably be excited no matter who the  coach is becaues they get to play with some of the best players from the city as well as area..if that dont get there juices pumping and confidence sky high it don't matter who the coache is

Well, my source in the district said so, and I believe St. Pius confirmed it.
Pay raise?  Nothing concrete on that...

Imo You need a head coach whos firey and energetic, and one who demands respect and doesnt take no s*** but also one who is loved by his players (Tough Love), unfortunately thats what our young black male athletes respond better to, Not the coach whos trying to be buddy buddy with everyone and doesnt wanna push ppl to hard cause he wants them on the team..Trust me its alot of thoes out there
.Let your OC/DC handle the X's and O's. You just worry about Everything else..

If the committee picked it, that's what it should be.  They shouldn't be trying to sway votes...  Well, of the voting process is done right, then there should be nothing that Dr. Allen could do.  I assume they are giving a 'friendly suggestion'?  ...and that's still not right...

It didnt say BISD would only pay 86,000 just talked about salaries around the State..
I can tell you one thing if its under $95,000 alot of coaches wont be applying. Like someone else stated just take the money you would give to Central coaches and split it among the two schools between Head and assistant coaches. 
If it is in fact around that number of $86k idk how BISD expects to compete for good coaches and if we do get one he'll gone after 2-3 successful seasons 

I have an official notice that ALL positions will be opened for outside applicants.  The head football, volleyball and cross country will be open effective tomorrow.

The demographics is changing from what i heard at a rapid rate , he may see the writing on the wall and get out while he can 

No, that is not how it was meant. The thread question is, are they set to be a powerhouse in 6A.
 I fully hope/expect to the new school to be very competitive. I guess it is your opinion on "powerhouse". There are a lot of questions that remain about the new school. We don't even know who is going to be coaching it. They will have a ton of talent, but there are a lot of 6A programs in the State with a ton of talent. 
Like I said, I think they will be very good, probably the best team in this area year in and year out, but I am not expecting them to be in State every year. Hell, I don't expect them to be at State consistently. I would imagine they will get there, but not like the Patriots getting to the Super Bowl. So I think they are going to be very good, but no, I do not think they are going to be a "6A Powerhouse"? 

Im sorry i ment it as being familair to the Area, i didnt know he was from Silsbee tho
