West Orange coaches are recruiting LCM ball boys?  I bet the UIL isn't too concerned with that.  

Ball boys? Are they usually coaches kids? Lol 

Guess we need to step up our recruit game. In case nobody has noticed. WOS openly recruits any and everyone. We have commercials on local TV promoting our many academic and athletic opportunities. An open district with no tuition fees that also has no standards for those students wishing to continue their education. We take em all.

Go watch an LCM game and see who the ball boys are. For the particular game in reference it was 4 freshman players who will probably be on varsity this year for LCM.

They definitely all try to pull in kids from other schools.  I think maybe others are smoother and quieter about it, though.  This kid leaving mid season and showing up at the cross town school the next day is just a bad look.  Bad on the kid as well.  Doesn't seem like a very loyal kid.  If I were the WOS coach I wouldn't allow him to play.

I agree. That's a fine line on what kind of message that sends to the team. But. I already know what the new WOS leader will say. In my opinion probably opposite of what CT would do.

Winning is the best recruiting tool. 😁

Win lose or draw the atmosphere and culture he is creating is lightyears better for the kids and community. I think at this point his overall coaching record speaks for itself for the ones who call him a dud...  the mouth will say anything

So take your best freshmen players and put them on your cross town rivals sidelines unsupervised?  Seems like a way to get your best kids snagged.  My coworker said the LCM head coach used to pick up the WOS kid and bring him to LCM workouts while the kid was enrolled in WOS still.

LoL. That's a lie.

And the UIL is allowing him to be cleared to play from week 1? 
that is wild. Wouldn’t have expected that

As for I know, yes. Not sure if it's from week 1. But I don't know of any reason he would be held out. Did he play any games for LCM last season? Or does that even matter?

    • Sure.  You reassign an employee and they leave voluntarily instead of being fired and being open to litigation.  The outcome is the same, but you are making my point.  The superintendent and AD and principal are all empowered to make personnel decisions.  Instead of accepting the decision made, you talk about lawyering up, no one else was reprimanded, railroad job.  I am old enough to remember when high school sports taught life lessons...accountability being chief among them.
    • I know absolutely nothing about the situation, but I do know head coaches of sports other than the AD have actual teaching assignments, and I know from my wife having worked in the sped department of multiple schools that it’s not uncommon at all for coaches to shirk those duties.  It could very well be that this was the case at BC.  Or not, I don’t know.  Just bringing this up to point out the fact that, although many coaches only want to worry about coaching, they generally have several other responsibilities at the school.  some of them neglect or ignore these duties entirely.  If he’s been written up for other issues before, it’s a dumb argument to say “he was punished for this and others were not”.  If he had a pile of write ups in his file and they did not then it makes sense that the punishments were different.  
    • He wasn’t fired, he was reassigned and people get reassigned all the time. If he was actually fired, then you would have a point, but he wasn’t fired. Based on the information presented here no way this would stand if they fired him and he lawyered up. 
    • I heard the assistant was going to get this job and assume it was referring to the old Vidor coach, Nate Smith.  I always thought he did more with less at Vidor and can't help but think he shares some responsibility in Vidor's recent success. 
    • Classic Bridge City.  Always someone else's fault, refs/umpires cheated, AD with an agenda, yada, yada, yada.  As far as I can tell it's damn near impossible to get fired at these schools so when someone does get fired, it's usually something.  Drama at Bridge City is a constant.  The guy did a good job coaching basketball and I'm sure he'll continue that somewhere else.  Time to move on.
