I look at it differently, we are all doing the right thing....without us occupying his time,he may have fell off the deep end if you get my drift....so round of applause for everyone who has responded to him in a good or bad fashion. haha

I got it ......like two days ago. But, it's been fairly interesting and I have learned some things. Did not know WOS had only been a school since 78. Lots of quick success!!!

Actually West Orange and Orange Stark merged in '78  to become West Orange Stark.I don't think West Orange went that far back before that.I'm thinking around the '50s.Maybe someone could chime in that has the right info.

I thought it was 1977 they merged????

Indeed. We only have one losing season - either 1982 or 1983.

We did merge in 77. That makes the First graduating class 1977.

Another fun fact, (I know some WO-S fans probably know this)  but the first WO-S coach was Steve McCarty and he had a pretty good record with the new team that was formed.  Which leads me to the question, why did he leave in '80 ?  I know it worked out fine since Hooks was hired.

1979         C          8-2-1         237-126         Steve McCarty
1980                     9-1-0         222-108         Steve McCarty

    • That should tell everyone something pretty clearly. Does anyone really think BH is recruiting elementary kids, to get them to transfer in Jr. high? Seriously? Here is the "dirty little secret" about BH: Most people move to the district for a quality living environment to raise their young family, and benefit from the outstanding acedemics at BH. Even If all athlectics suddenly disappeared from BH, people would still want their kids in the district. If thats not enough to convince anyone, and BH really was determined to recruit, first step would be to have open enrollemnt. It is closed.        Yes, I get it, no one ever wants to give BH the benefit of the doubt on anything. Some of the accusations are beyond ridiculous though. This paranoia the BH critics are afflicted with is not just sad, its flat out laughable.     
    • Opting is always an option. Are they considering any BC assistants? Highly qualified after that season they put up. 
    • Be that as it may, only time will tell. Hide and watch. Don’t be surprised if the next HC hire uses his own recipe. That happens more than not historically. I am not arguing the point that Hooks & CT had a winning combination that could’ve been carried over. I’m saying that finding someone to do that is not going to be as easy as one might think. Tell me again why Saban’s replacement, who even has Saban’s assistance if he wants it, just lost another game to an unranked team and has taken the Tide out of playoff contention? Why wouldn’t he just follow the success of possibly the greatest college football coach ever lived? 
    • We've acknowledged having 2 HOF coaches hasn't been like most other schools. So why everyone jumps to the conclusion it wouldn't work here is beyond my comprehension. I see it carry over with these other hires. Gilmer, Aledo, North Shore, Austin Westlake. Next man up that continues the system in place has instant success. Matter fact there was 2 rookie HC that won the state championship the same year we handed over the keys. Same book. Same recipe. Better ingredients.
