It was his first year.  All I will say is that it didn't work out well. Not sure where he ended up going.

It was Billy Bryant, if I'm correct.

Nothing really happening.  It would seem so from the outside.  1st coach (Wofford)  chose to retire entirely on his on last July (later decided to come back and coach in Brookeland).  He was replaced by Coach Bryant in late July.  We welcome Coach Bunner and look to get back to the baseball tradition we had in Warren.

I understand Woodville has lost their coach. Maybe coach Wilroy can come out of retirement.

[Coach Morgan]

Any ideas on who might be a fit or at least in the running for WOS

According to an article in the Enterprise, Cornel Thompson didn't give any timeline on when a hire will be made.  He didn't indicate who the candidates, if he has any in mind are.

[Coach Morgan]

Don't have long. 

[Fastballupandin]

I don't know if Cornel has the stroke to get Westbrook back to WOS.

 

[Coach Morgan]

Idk. That's an interesting thought.

[bobbymcgee]

The thing I think could lure someone like Westbrook at Jasper or Jeff Bennett at Kirbyville is that the administrative situation at both schools is a circus right now and the political situation is dynamic. 

Both coaches would be great for WO-S if Cornel can work his magic and get them over there. 

[WOSgrad]

Don't get me wrong.  IF Coach Thompson could lure either Coach Westbrook or Coach Bennett to WO-S, I'd be good with that.

However based upon information I have gotten from Jasper and Kirbyville, both coaches are currently happy enough with their situations, as well as both schools being happy enough with their coaches.  So it appears that they will be staying put (no guarantee, of course) for the near future.

Of course, I'd not have a problem if Ryan Pickering would be promoted to the top spot, either.

[chukslegacy]

Pickering would be a good choice. 

[walldrill]

Pick is a very good coach that should get this opportunity.

[glassjoe]

Kyle Green might be an option.

Well, he is currently employed by Lamar University.
