BMTSoulja1 Posted February 2, 2016 Report Posted February 2, 2016 I'm thinking, since West Brook is scheduled to travel almost 600 miles for district games this year, it really makes no sense to keep Ozen playing up being that your reasoning was to cut back on travel... Someone either goofed up big time or there really an ulterior motive for messing Ozen over. The funds budgeted for travel costs have probably been exceeded with West Brook alone, so the excuse of saving is way out of the question. Ultimately, UIL chitted on West Brook, and BISD chitted on Ozen. Smh Alpha Wolf, KF89 and BlackShirts5 3 Quote

Smh Expand BISD made a decision to help in their finances. They cannot help where UIL put West Brook. Think it is a wise decision. Quote
NDNation Posted February 2, 2016 Report Posted February 2, 2016 The best thing would have been to drop Ozen down and let the winning begin which might bring more people to the games. Raise money thru ticket sales and concession. IMO the travel would have been about the same or close to it. Athletes were let down. The ones coming up the pipe may shift to the other schools, which is only going to hurt Ozen. CAL2TEX, BlackShirts5, BMTSoulja1 and 1 other 4 Quote

Expand Yea, I know, I see what they were thinking before, but seeing it play out now, it turns out to be a pretty dumb decision being that the budget funds will be depleted on West Brook's travel alone.

The Icon Posted February 2, 2016 Report Posted February 2, 2016 Is there really that big of difference in terms of travel distance between the local 5A district compared to the local 4A big school district? I could be wrong - it has happened many times before Quote

Expand I had figured that 21-6A would change some with PAM going down and GCM coming up (even swap with 22-5A). With CE King moving up, I really thought that maybe just North Shore would get moved to a different district. I didn't think that they would dismantle the district completely. Quote
workbootz Posted February 2, 2016 Report Posted February 2, 2016 PAM screwed West Brook by dropping down to 5A. Even though Lufkin is a 100 miles away a trip down 69 won't be as bad as taking a trip down 45 on a Friday afternoon. West Brook is on an island by themselves, just like Baytown Lee they have to go somewhere. Quote

District 12 -4A Div 2 Hamshire-Fannett Liberty Orangefield Hardin-Jefferson West Orange-Stark Farthest trip would be a 40 minute drive to Liberty, everything else is within 20 minutes.

NDNation Posted February 2, 2016 Report Posted February 2, 2016 Wait 2 more years for the next realignment, maybe #'s will push them D2 and then drop down to be in WOS district. Quote
