Like they were supposed to do with that special talent.  That game was weird because I believe that was his first fumble of the season in that game.  Silsbee was within Carthage's 10 yard line. Score

If the criteria for this honor is strictly high school career, then in my humble opinion the player should come from this list:

Bobby McGallion

Randy Mathews

Brian Doss

Philip Lindsey

Jeremy Johnson

Patrick Reed

Dontre Thomas

Very good list

To this day it amazes me Dontre Thomas didnt win the Willie Ray Smith Award. I know th kid from WOS won state, but the number Thomas put and going 4 rounds deep had to count for something. 

It did.... second place. The Legend of Jack Dallas was the clear choice that year.  

He's got a ring to prove it.

If he was the clear choice that year, why wasn't he the clear choice the following year when HE won state that year as well?

It's all politics. His senior year was his best. Finishing up with back to back titles. And a 20 something game winning streak. Maybe some of the voters that read this can explain it better. But how long has it been since there was a back to back winner?

I know this horse has been beat on plenty of occasions, but WRS award is an individual award. Dontre had much better numbers. Jack Dallas had a lot of help from his defense while dontre had barely any help from his.

I am a WRS voter and to my knowledge there has never been a back to back winner.

My problem with some of the voters in this situation was they used a certain criteria to vote for Jack his junior year but chose not to use that same criteria his senior year.

      So you are saying a star baseball SHOULD be doing full contact football drills during the baseball season as his Baseball team prepares for the playoffs?

      Roger.  I misread your comment. Perhaps the other sports will turn the corner sometime soon.

      I'm going to agree with this. Individual drills would be fine, but a varsity baseball player should not be involved in full pad practices during the baseball season. Especially, if he is a contributing player on a playoff bound baseball team. This is irresponsible and selfish of the AD/HFC.

      If there's a specific situation that started this thread, I don't know the details.  Nor do I care.  But I do have an opinion about what I'm gathering from some of the comments. My opinion: I do believe that an AD should leave the players of a particular sport to their respective head coach during that season.  The varsity players of that sport anyway.  I believe it's a little different concerning the sub varsity players of that sport.  If an AD/HFC decides to grab some JV baseball players for some offseason football stuff during the athletics period, I don't have AS MUCH of a problem with it.  I would still consider it a common courtesy to discuss with the head coach of that particular sport to consider their thoughts on it. I also believe that ALL athletes should be lifting and running all year.  When in a particular season, I believe that the head coach of that sport should control the reigns on that topic to implement some sport specific lifting/running during their season.  But all athletes should be in the weight room year round. As far as playing multiple sports?  I'm an advocate.  I know that the popular idea is for potentially good/great players in a specific sport to "focus" on that sport.  And I agree.. but focusing on one sport doesn't mean stopping the others.  It just means prioritizing time in a way that extra work is put into that specific sport.  After hours, weekends, holidays/summer, etc..  Just because you plan on making a push into college baseball (for example) doesn't mean you can't work on baseball during other sports seasons.  That's exactly what I did.. and countless others.  Plus, it's important to maybe learn how to be a role player in a sport that you're not the best at.  Because that's coming. That's my opinion.  And I come from an era where kids played multiple sports if they knew it would be helping.  Helping their classmates.. or just contributing to school pride.  I hate knowing that there are schools that could be much more competitive if their kids would just come out.  It's hard for me to understand if I'm being honest.
