You’re right 3 winning seasons in the last 20 years, and 2 of them have Been the last two years. Things are on the right track for them. The splitting of the schools really hurt them.

I agree with what you said about the list of applicants and who do you pick. Nelson could have been a good pick just as peevey could have been but what connection does he have with the program now and the kids now. If the season turned and they went 2-8 I would totally understand changing the entire regime. I am not bashing anyone or anyone's deductions or reasons just being the devils advocate to see why some people didn't like the choice. Now the OC you are wrong about, he was a head coach for multiple years out of state before coming here. Flanigan was extremely hands off during the season and they did very well his year. So that reasoning you have is invalid for him what makes Nelson the hire that would be best for Westbrook just curious, I don't know the man well but I know he had success but does that always translate from one school to another again just another outsider looking wondering why some people are ecstatic peevey got the job and some are very upset

Even 20 people applying is a handful considering. 6a 11-2 3 rounds deep and most kids back on offense that was good. Over 79 applicants for the Bryan rudder job z 5a 2-8 or something

I agree. What person on that list was better then peevey knowing that Langston took a job at north Texas. And there was not many that applied for the job at all. There is a distain for bisd outside of Beaumont. A lot of people steer clear of them because of the past.

Ok so u say he is terrible hire because the defense was bad and the offense was ridiculously strong. Pretty sure the offense was very good. Then you say the offensive coordinator is even less qualified, that doesn't make sense going by your reason for saying peevey shouldn't get the job. I believe you just wanted an outside hire that was a big splash. Problem is nobody wanted the job but a handful of people.

they did give up points but they still went 11-2. Not to mention the year before their defense was pretty nasty good. Does that mean he lost the ability to coach in that year? I hope he does a good job, and the kids respond to him. Why didn't the OC apply for the job?

Detractor? How is anything being taken away from anything. Facts not opinion was stated

You mean the guy who took the north Texas o line job before interviews at west Brook happened? I wouldn't consider that long term. Peevey is born and raised SETX. He isn't going anywhere, his entire family lives here. I would assume his interview gave that away

I can see that but why? Just curious what would an outside hire bring, that the D.C. Couldnt? They had one year where the defense struggled but the year before the defense was great so you can't blame that. i guess I am just trying to find the logic in wanting an outside hire. Not saying either is right or wrong just curious.

Who do you guys feel should have gotten the job at West Brook.? I mean hasn't that man acted as the head coach for the past 4 months. Why wouldn't you want to keep the hire internal, they had one of the best seasons in years and the kids seem to respond to them.

Sadly it sounds like there are some people who have dogs in the fight and want their guys to get the job. I'm all about a fair process with the position hiring, but it sounds like this may be much more political then people think. Also at a large job like this, people who are interested already know the position is open and have probably called the administrators and have been connected with the application I would say that the "administrator" that is being spoken of has dealt with the coaches there on staff on a daily basis and probably know something we don't know. Possibly about the culture of the program, the way the kids react to them, or even that they are doing a great job with the program in the absence of a permant head coach this team obviously had success this year, why are some people so adamant about hiring from outside. I hope they give a coordinator the opportunity at the job with as much enthusiasm as some people are giving an outside hire. i absolutly think the job should be opened fairly but I also hope the best man for the job would get it as well.

The defensive coordinator would be a great hire. No matter how many points they gave up, the year before they had one of the better defenses in 6a. He has done a good job in the head coaches absence and not to mention the kids love and respect him.

I would love to see what his coaches say about the situation and what they think about him leaving. I wonder if we will see a mass exodus of coaches to go with him?

Thoughts do you let one of the coordinators have a shot at the job or do you started over. They did see success this year. Either way there is talent there.

You seem to know a lot of inside information at west Brook? Are you a coach or a fellow co worker? Because to say that most of his co workers disagreed with him is quite a statement. Maybe the man was just unhappy with some things including salary. How can anyone hate another for furthering their career and future. Nobody would question anyone else for taking another job for money/environment/family. Just thinking out loud.
