It is sooooo pleasing to see some of the REAL people come on here and shut some of these wannabees up.

Classic!!!

Where are the comments by 40under? I would like to see what you guys are responding to.

I am not DENYING that WOS has issues on the offensive side of the ball. I totally agree that you have to be able to run the football. If you can't, eventually it will cost you. My issue with this OC thing is, most of you Mustang fans want to lay 100% of the blame on the OC. Isn't Dan Hooks the head coach? Doesn't every decision go through him? Why aren't you guys laying the blame at his feet? If Dan Hooks, as great a coach as he is ( and I really believe he is ), doesn't see fit to make a change, then so be it.

You are so correct. Judging by what I have watched in just the first 2 weeks of the NFL season, there has been many a game won by a kick already this season. Another example is the Texans punting. Turk has really kept the opposing offenses pinned back. Allows for Houston's defense to be more creative.

I hear ya kicker. I think most, if not all, of these hostilities are about the OC situation. Trust me, there are a lot of teams that have kicking game problems, not just WOS. It seems to be a lost art.

Silsbee's is setup that way too. I think most if not all isd's are that way.

I never implied that you were refering to Silsbee as one of the " good spread offenses ". Just correcting you on the " three spread offenses " comment.

Well said, mustangsally, very well said.

First of all, this is a public forum, I can make comments if I choose to. My point of this whole OC thing is that Dan Hooks is the AD and head coach, the buck stops with him. None of you are pointing your fingers at him. He is the one that should be held accountable for any problems that the WOS football program has. Two questions, do you think Dan Hooks is a great coach? If so, don't you think he would have recognized this " problem " and dealt with it accordingly? You're right, I have not seen as many WOS games as you folks have, but I know what an outstanding coach Dan Hooks is. You'll never convince me that you guys know more than he does about this situation. WOS fans support Dan Hooks, Dan Hooks supports his OC, these should go hand in hand. Like I said before, the buck stops with Hooks, he and only he is ultimately responsible for all the play calling, offensive or defensive.

News flash, Silsbee runs the veer offense, with a little spread mixed in.

It is so funny how you WOS fans want to lay this at the Offensive coordinators feet and not even mention Hooks' resposibility here. He's the freaking head coach and AD for crying out loud. If this man, who is considered by many( particularly you Mustang fans ) as one of the best coaches to ever coach in this area, probably the state, wants this coach as his OC, then so be it. If this is such a problem that has lasted for as long as you guys say it has, don't you think a coach of Hooks magnitude would have done something by now. I mean, if it is so obvious a problem that you guys notice, I would think the great Dan Hooks would have done something about it by now. This just sounds like a bunch of whinning if you ask me. I personaly think Dan Hooks is a great coach and I'm in no position to question this mans decisions. I don't think any of you are either.

Hooks seems to be happy with him. Doesn't he call the shots?

Silsbee will match up better with Newton and I think we will have a better handle on the ball. Plus, I still think Jasper is a year away, they won't be that good this quick. Silsbee 28 Newton 24

This SFA85 guy that thinks he knows something about football, you Nederland fans just need to ignore him. It's obviously that he's got this big chip on his shoulder pertaining to Nederland. The Bulldogs could beat a Southlake Carroll team and he still wouldn't credit you for the win. Last I saw, only points determined wins and losses, not stats. BTW, you sound pretty dumb using that " Spread offense makes a soft defense " moniker. Neither has to do with the other. There are teams out there running spread offenses, WOS in particular, that have great defenses. SFA85, just get over your hatred towards Nederland, it's making you look stupid.

I said that if PNG went to the power run game, they would beat my Tigers. The Indians had over 300 yards rushing tonight. Add that to 9 turnovers for the Tigers, 5 fumbles, 4 int's, and that just means the Silsbee defense is on the field way too long. No team can overcome 9 turnovers, but Silsbee has to improve the run defense. As young as our skill players are on offense, we are going to be fighting the inconsistancy and ball handling probably all year. I still believe the Tigers will be there at the end of the year and make the playoffs. PNG needs to keep running that 2 back pro set and get away from that spread, which they did tonight.

Port Arthur News. It's in the game capsule.

I'm not sure. I didn't think we had gotten that much rain. With that new base and drainage system we put in, I figured we would be okay. We must have gotten more rain than I thought. The field was in excellant shape last Friday and looked good after the game also. I think it will be good after today's sun on it. Speaking of the rain, man did that storm jump up on us. I work in Port Neches and that thing went right through us last night. My lab partner and I went outside about 3:30 am and it was gettin it. If that was a Cat 1 winds, can't imagine what Rita's were like.

Good deal. I would have gone through withdrawls, that wouldn't have been pretty.

I did not realize our field was in that bad of shape. I still think we will have our game, but looks to be up in the air right now. Coop, get that sun out today and dry up Tiger Stadium. I want my chicken!!!

I see what you are saying. Good eyes STiger85.

The West Hardin-Hardin game was moved back to Hardin's stadium. Sorry.

Actually, it's just the groundbreaking, you know, the ole honorary shovel and dirt routine. Constuction should begin in about a month. Will be ready by next season, but some say it could be finished by the last home game( Kirbyville ) but I'm not going to hold my breath. I know the builder, very good friend of mine, it will be a fine facility for sure. You guys need to get there early tomorrow night and get some footage of the groundbreaking. Plus, get you some chicken. ;D
