Grad any info on this?Not much being said around town..

I heard rumor of it a few weeks back, While the info came from an extremely reliable source, as far as I am concerned it still belongs in the rumor stage as no official word has come from WO-C CISD about it....or at least none that I have seen.

Contact has been singed no if and or buts about it. It's a fact

That may be true. 

But until official word comes down that 1) he has left Kirbyville CISD and 2) that he has signed on with West Orange-Cove CISD, I can't confirm he is the new baseball coach.  For me as an administrator of this site to do so without those vital pieces of info would be a great disservice to Coach Jones, Coach Todd Doughty and Coach Thompson.

Believe me, we will know in plenty of time.

I understand that. I am just saying for the ppl that are wondering that it is a done deal. Coach Jones is the new baseball coach in West Orange.

For anyone interested in Coach Jones' record.  Google "2014 Wilbur Award winners Texarkana". Look for his name among the adult winners where his record is listed.  He holds the record for living coaches for consecutive trips to the state tournament at 6 in a row.  Only one other has ever done it and that was around 1960. He has been to 10 regional finals. 9 as a head coach and once as an assistant.  The only trip Kirbyville has ever made was with him as assistant.  WOS, supply some decent players and you are in for a ride.  Good Luck Craig Jones.

    • RWG Stem vs Liberty Magnet tips off in 5 minutes in the main gym.
    • REL actually improved this year to 6-4 which was remarkable because like you said, they had a lot of injuries and their bench was thin before that.  It’s crazy how the smallest of the 3 GCCISD High Schools finds a way to at least field a team that can hold their own but you’re right that coaching is one aspect of it.  Not that they’re a top 150 team or even close to it but if they’d lost a couple less guys there’s a real chance they could have beat Texas City and gone to at least the 1st round of playoffs this year which for GCCISD football might as well be State for how hard it is for them.   You’re spot-on about GCM and RSS coaches.  GCM coach is 2-28 over 3 years and RSS coach is 15-45 over 6.  Hard to get kids to participate in what they know from the outset is a losing proposition.  I watched the GCM/NS Game.  I was worried someone would get hurt, felt sick.  All 22 of NS starters are high level D1 Commits, QB is 19 years old, and GCM lined up a bunch of Sophomores against them, kids that aren’t even old enough to drive.     I know GCCISD wouldn’t ever do it but they really ought to stop insisting that the 3 High Schools play each other for their first 2 out of conference games.  At least let GCM out of it.  All 3 schools are in different Classifications so the wins don’t matter except for bragging rights around town and with REL winning both those games every season all it does is kill morale before the first District game is even played.  Let GCM schedule some OOC games on their level like Houston Sterling/Sam Houston/Chavez for their first 3.  That way there’s a good chance even if they lose every District game they could end up 3-7 and if they beat Channelview 4-6.  GCM having to lose to RSS and REL to start their season every year is just a killer.   You want to know why all the talent at EF Green Jr doesn’t show up at GCM?  Because that talent transfers to North Shore after 8th grade is done.  Straight-up.  They don’t care if you know either.  Those kids moms get on Facebook and brag about it.  Of course, most of those kids end up so far back on the depth chart that by Sophomore year they want to transfer back just so they can get to play at all but then you run into the eligibility thing.    Anyway, sorry for the off-topic tangent, this is a BH thread.  
    • They are very good. Really good shooting guard that's '6"3. Also have a do it all forward that's '6"5. He does everything for them. Score, rebound, defend. Maybe not as quick overall as those other teams, but I think they will at least make state semifinals.
