Kid should have been allowed to sign with his teammates. Yes he miss practice a lot but he family situation is far worse then anybody else on the WOS football team. Kid has family issues a kid shouldn't have to worry about it deal with.

To ruin his day is childish, football season is over time to forgive and forget. I'm pretty sure coach T wasn't perfect at 17 years old.

Love the WOS program but at some point we need our coaches to think outside those silver helmets and think about what our boys might be going through at home. Lights off, no food in the fridge, nobody in the family has a car, the last thing on this kids mind was football practice.

Well said, a lot of folks @ WOS only cares about the football program, how many wins in a season & making it too state. รฐลธโ€™ยฏรฐลธโ€™ยฏรฐลธโ€™ยฏ

I vastly disagree and dare any of you to say these things to guys like Toby Foreman. This is about holding everyone to the same level and making sure they are responsible for themselves. I hate any teenager having to deal with those type of things but if you can't hold down your responsibilities to your team then you shouldn't be a part of it. That isn't being cruel, that is being fair to all those involved. It isn't fair to other players who do make practice each day and go through some of the same things.

Yep. Saw Deionte sipping sprite from a can 85% of practices instead of working...it's what got him to Bama

Really! I thought it was all the hard work the young man has put in to it and all the sacrifices his parents have made to help him get where he is at! Whats DT situation have to do with the shaw kid?

I'm glad the kid still holds a scholarship to La. Tech. First of all if it was my kid which he isn't I would've had a lot to say about his situation to CT, TF or ect. An you're right u suppose to be held accountable for your actions! If that was the situation about his family problems nobody knows nor probably nobody ask. We can go on & on about this but we're all looking from the outside looking in. I'm a firm believer about no practice no play! All I saying is that the kid went thru 2 offseason & played 5 games this year & then removed for the team. He still should've been able to sign with his friends. I was told by some of the same kids that sign yesterday. That they think it wasn't fair to Johnny but it's nothing they could do about it. They also said there friendship is more important then football & they're 112% behind Johnny, plus nothing going to come between that.

I don't mean My statements solely on Johnny. More broad opinion that if you're off team, you're off team. I'm sure same kids missed him at team dinners and other events. That's part of consequence for actions. If you're booted out of school for not showing up, still have passing grades, should you walk at graduation? No. You were taken out of the school as a whole and you can't go back and bend the punishment. Kinda applaud CT for standing by his punishment. It's rare you hear him kick guys off team. There were two this year and the first one, well....

Simple. It's a point to show even DT at WOS is expected to put in work. I don't buy the notion Shaw was treated as some castoff or black swan. He didn't practice enough to satisfy coaches so he was removed

So he should have practiced when he had strep and a fracture? Is he related to Jack Youngblood or something?

Fact is he didn't go to practice and had a brother who found time to be at practice. That's all I know[/quote]

Not True. ....
In that case more than shaw should've been dismissed from the Team....fact is I personally heard What our AD had to say about Shaw..

      Lucky for Orangefield thereโ€™s only 3 games max to play.ย  ย  Someone said they had a pitcher or 2 throw 90โ€™s but I donโ€™t know that for a fact. ย Rumors.ย ย  it appears that Orangefield will see some faster pitchers this round. Generally speaking I havenโ€™t been too impressed with Orangefield opponents pitching. Only pitcher so far that was fast (92 mph) was vs Woodville in first game & Orangefield got several runs off of him.ย  ย  Looking for a good series with no injuries for both teams.ย

      Apologies if this is a stupid question, but why would they just not renew his contract for the 24/25 school year if he had multiple write-ups? I know teachers and paraprofessionals don't get their contract renewed if their performance is bad enough - are coaches' contract situations different?

      Itโ€™s very difficult to fire an educator. ย Itโ€™s not difficult to reassign them and put them in a situation where theyโ€™re likely to leave on their own. ย Iโ€™m not sure of the legality of exposing an employeeโ€™s work records, but it seems likely itโ€™s not allowed if nothing criminal took place. ย
