Orangefield (35) @ Woodville (14) FINAL

[spidersal]

Just maybe the coach that went to Crawford saw that WV didn’t have a lot of talent in grades 9-12

I thought Woodville had a QB that was getting D1 offers? I was kind of shocked to see only 14 points. Did he not have enough time to do anything?

5 new starters on OLine . He barely had time to drop back unless we went max pro. Max pro means only 2 receivers maybe and it's hard for those 2 receivers to get open against 4 or 5 in the secondary. He still had over 200 yards passing, couple td passes, and some rushing yards though. Good game for him really but not much in the running game.

5 new starters on the OLine, but delusional Woodville fans blame the new coach for losing to a talented Orangefield team? I hope y'all lose every game. 😂

Wouldn't surprise me if we did. He's evidently gonna stay stuck on stupid about the defensive front. OLine was expected to struggle. Defensive front is a easy fix. Learn who the dogs are and let em off the leash

No need to bother, my man.  People in the know understand what makes a successful program and it all starts with coaching.  But, you can have your opinion about everything happens in a straight line to defend your position.  

UNC and TCU.  Surely.. according to your logic.. the several times NFL world champion Bill Belichick will walk the floor with TCU.  Right?  Football is football.

How come the “championship football coach” isn’t destroying the other one?

Were you this upset when Coach Robinson lost to Orangefield (2021 21-7 or 2019 31-0)? We only got the ball twice in the second half of the 2021 game (once for only one play, we threw a pick)

High interest in QB from multiple schools. Going to have to roll the pocket and get creative to buy time for him. OLine is inexperienced.

2021 Coach Rob had a young team mostly sophmores if I remember correctly. But he put the best players on the field and they fought hard and held a good OF team with a monster back to 21. 

2019 was coach Rob's worse year with us. That was his last year in that one dimensional offense and he had kind of lost engagement from the players a little. That was the last time we allowed more than 21 from OF and we ended up missing the playoffs that year.

I see you found the time you said you didn't have!  Well, I'm glad you did.  It's not hard to understand.  It's only hard for some if they think in terms of all or nothing.  I think Belichick may have fallen into the situation other championship coaches fall into.  Plus he may not be suited for this league.  Just like Saban, Holtz, Meyers, Spurrier couldn't make it in a different league.  Just like Dodge couldn't make it in college.  Let's get back to my first point.  When coaches get older and have achieved what they fought for in their younger years, their drive, motivation and intensity later on is not there.  Example:  Landry, Lombardi and Joe Gibbs.  I would possibly put Shula and Walsh (college) in that category.  As a matter of fact, I heard Gibbs actually say the same thing I'm saying.  He said his second time around with the Redskins his work ethic was not the same.  Consequently, didn't achieve what was achieved before.  Again, drive, motivation and intensity was not there.  As for Belichick, we saw where his mind was in the off season:  Something around the number 24!   But heck, it's only one game.  Plus, we are seeing what has happened to Alabama with a different coach.  I guess you could say that since Saban left, the well has ran dry at Alabama.  But honestly -- do you believe that?!

I didn't have time at the time I sent the first one.  Watching the UNC game made me realize that it takes much more than the ability to coach to win games.. which reminds me.  Since we're doing this song and dance again.  I love how you provide a short list of successful coaches that fit your particular narrative.  While completely ignoring the much longer list of coaches that find ultimate success (sometimes early in their career), but never come close again.  I mean.. why wouldn't you ignore them.  It makes your argument look stupid.

As far as Saban.. the expanded tournament along with the transfer portal all but guaranteed that Bama could no longer be handpicked by the BCS bowl committee to play for a "national championship" anymore.  So, yeah.. he knew that the reign was over.

Back to the original point.  It was implied early on in this post that the reason 3AD2 Woodville lost to 3AD1 Orangefield was because of: A- A coaching change. B- The new coach's inability to place players in the correct position..  instead of losing a graduating class that led WV to their best season in school history.  Ya know... because the current kids have... "wOn SiNcE pEeWeE.."  

Here's the deal.. and I'll only say this once more.  That belief is STUPID.  And anyone that believes that is... well... I don't think I have to say it.

To be honest, those two passes should have been intercepted. The first one was under thrown & our CB tripped & fell grabbing his jersey for a penalty but the receiver made a heck of a catch. pretty much the exact thing for TD 2. With out those plays it would have been 35 - 0.

Nice perspective from a OF fan. You guys looked good.
