Great move for Bears, why play a school like mentioned before 2 yrs ago refused to switch home and away when supposedly your cross town friends field wasn’t finished. Also had fans outside the gate th

This might not have happened if Hickman would have been more cordial; refused to sign off on students and refusing to swap home games shot himself in the foot. He should have put some effort into a lo

We are now experiencing what it is like to hire a head coach with no head coaching experience. First thing he does is change offense and defense. Lack of success and lack of discipline have kids leavi

I’ve read it and just read it again for a refresher…makes me think somebody had nothing but failure in their intentions 

I don't think anyone on the sideline had the intentions to fail. I do think the man behind the curtain played us all. And the board went right along with it because the back to back HOF coachs made it seem so easy a caveman could do it. There's a difference between confidence and arrogance. Confidence is a bullfighter going in the ring with steak sauce on his sword. Arrogance is thinking the kids athletic abilities carried the coaches. Then blaming a drop in talent for the losing seasons.

One was overheard saying the coaches are too smart for the kids. And they can't learn the new system.

Y’all had it good for a long time… it’s pretty clear to see that it’s over. West Orange isn’t some blessed zip code that’s always going to win… y’all just had lighting in a bottle for a long time. 
 

HH isn’t a bad coach, he’s just not as good as your last two. Very, very few are. The question is whether or not y’all can attract another HOF caliber coach to bring the program back to dominance-which isn’t guaranteed. 
 

I think the future involves y’all mixing it up for DCs in some years, making the playoffs  most, then eventually dropping to 3A D1 and having more success down there. 
 

No Thanksgiving practices in your future, though. At this point the chain is broken. There are no kids left who have any time under that level of coaching. I just don’t see things getting better.

Been said before but you’d think with a program that WOS has had the last 4 decades, the history and traditions it has, it would have attracted a few high caliber quality coaches from strong programs.  That didn’t happen. Which leads me to believe it’s small town politics mainly with the school board that kept any from applying.  Schools like Gilmer, Southlake Carroll, Celina, Austin Westlake and others can have a new HC step in and keep the train rolling pretty much without missing a beat.

Tales of two coaches. Hickman and Smith applied for the Silsbee job. Coach smith in his first three years at Silsbee went 23-15. Smith overall is 78-34. In Smith’s  third year he  brought Silsbee to state semi finals. Smith is 10-3 in the playoffs. Hickman 19-15, 1-3 in the playoffs in three years and went farthest to the  area round. Do you think Hickman would have brought Silsbee to the State Semi finals in silsbee 3rd season? WOS has athletes and probably have better athlete's than Silsbee. But the lack of discipline and coaching strategy is apparent.

Smith is 78-31 overall and 18-8 in the playoffs.

His first three years he went 23-15 overall and 6-3 in playoffs.

His Silsbee teams are averaging making 3rd round every year in his 9 years as head coach.

      What news station do you watch?…..never mind.    What age are the children you take care of. Refugees from where? Are they in a hospital? Now children compared to criminals…..geeeez. The mayor of Denver and a few governors, including Newsom, have said they will not turn over incarcerated criminals to ICE. This is a felony. They are harboring criminals and fugitives. Gee, I’m so glad you want criminals protected. Anyone who crossed illegally into our country is a criminal. Happy Holidays to you and yours.

      Are they offering refuge to criminals? Or is it a Trump talking point? Refugees are people who leave their country due to unwarranted prosecution. I actually take care of 2 refugee kids who have complex medical needs   No, refugees are not criminals, and the assumption that they are more likely to be criminals than the general population is incorrect:                                                                                          Research shows immigrants commit crimes at lower rates Immigrants in the United States commit crimes at lower rates than the U.S.-born population, including unauthorized immigrants. This is true across immigrant groups.                  Immigration doesn't raise crime rates Immigrants don't raise crime rates in the communities where they settle. In fact, some studies suggest that immigration can lower crime rates, especially violent crime.                  Anti-immigration politicians have spread a myth Anti-immigration politicians have repeatedly tried to link immigrants to crime, but research shows this is a myth.                  Refugees don't cause crime in Turkey A study found that refugees don't have a causal effect on crime rates in Turkey. In fact, the study found that refugees may have a negative effect on crime rates per capita.

      I think it's actually the first time ever to get past the second round. Some older folks might try to tell you about Scott High but I wasn't here when that school was around 😆
