If WR will embrace that and not get hung up on trying to get the perfect veteran, they will probably attract some good candidates. I can think of one that be perfect but won't happen.

Racer55 Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 What will happen to coach Lacey? Any word? Wonder how long it’ll be before Frazier is hired on the coaching staff at WO or later on offered the HC job. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PrideMember Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 West Rusk has a talented team with potential to go far in the playoffs and maybe contend for state. A good proven seasoned head coach could be all it takes. D. Alexander would be a good choice. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Batman123 Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 I haven't posted on here in a long, long time, and I won't slander anyone. But if the hire is made that I believe will be made, it's a move that will negatively affect the program for years to come. I would hate to see that, because West Rusk has good kids, and I want them to keep on winning. I'm not a West Rusk parent, and they may not even hire the guy that a lot of us are hearing. Maybe they will hire from within -- maybe that would be for the best. Or maybe I'll be wrong, and the guy that's at the center of the rumor will be a LOT better head coach than he has as an assistant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not trying to be a jerk I’m just genuinely asking how you know he’s not been a very good assistant? We maybe thinking about two different people, but from the outside looking in, he’s been pretty good I thought. If it’s who I’m thinking, they were down this past year, but are always a contender and score a lot of points. Curious if there’s anybody he’ll take with him if it is.

Batman123 Posted January 17, 2019 Share Posted January 17, 2019 I haven't coached with him. Have you noticed that Kilgore's goals seemed to have gone from winning district and a deep playoff run, maybe contending for a title, to winning district and if not, then somehow getting into the playoffs and out of the second round? Not being ugly. I said the Kilgore coaches are good people, they're all good people. I'm saying they had a 6-5 wide receiver in Jonathan Shepherd and were throwing it over the top 2-3 times a game -- that was the only passing game, basically, Kilgore had the last few seasons. It's bottomed out badly. Kilgore has found a way to get it done in spite of a lack of offense. Anyone who doesn't believe this should ask Henderson and Carthage fans. They see Kilgore play. I'm not convinced that West Rusk will keep winning anyway with the loss of talent they're about to go through in graduation, but West Rusk has been pretty balanced under Frazier. If this hire is made, they'll go from pretty balanced, like 60-40 run-to-pass, to 95-5 run-to-pass. I may be in the minority, but I don't see that teams who "always" run or teams that "always" pass win consistently. Does Kilgore get in the playoffs every year? Well, just about it. Are they a constant winner? Yes. Is that admirable and where most programs want to be? Yes. Is part of Kilgore's problem the district in which it plays? Yes. But right now, they have virtually no offense. Lost 28 seniors to graduation, of course, but the offense has been not nearly as good since they elected to abandon their old offense for ...whatever this is. I still read this board from time to time. I know there are a few guys like Aggie98 or WhoamI that seem to be pretty connected to the program. They may disagree with me. I can't speak for them. I can tell you what I see and what I hear. Sorry I posted back to back posts. Sitting here thinking about this, I hijacked this thread. Rumored guy is a good guy. If that's who West Rusk wants to hire, good luck to him and to them, and hopefully they'll keep winning. I didn't mean to make it about Kilgore, just was stating what I knew to be true. If I offended anybody, I apologize. Rooting for what's best for West Rusk, and hope coach Frazier will enjoy watching his son play ball for WOHS. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sorry I posted back to back posts. I have followed Kilgore fairly closely basically since Vallery got to town and I can tell you Kilgore has never thrown the ball. The running stats are essentially the same as 2004 except they do it out of a pistol triple option as opposed to a power running attack. You’re correct about Sheppard and I agree they probably could have utilized him a little better, but I can probably count on one hand the number of times he saw single coverage, and the QB he played with couldn’t exactly thread the needle. Kilgore’s talent level has been way down pretty much since the 2013 state season. My personal opinion from a fan in the stands is it would be a good fit for both him and WR, but I’ve been wrong before. Remember, there were people that said hiring an OC from Thigh was a terrible move for Carthage once upon a time, so you never know. I would be interested to see if any coaches followed him though. A lot of those guys have been there a while. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got zero connections to either program (West Rusk or Kilgore), but I think Mata would be a good fit for the Raiders. I can't say he'd be better than any other candidates, because I don't know who they are. But if the question is would Mata do well at WR, the answer is yes. I believe he would.
