I know their record wasn’t good this season but he’s been a pretty good coach, not sure WW can get anyone as good as him. Nothing happened. School board just decided it was time for a change.

GraysonFan Posted March 22 Share Posted March 22 Maybe they will hire Tyrone Swoopes. He’s an asst right down the road at Tom Bean and maybe he wants to get away from that mess. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is a reason you have that big of a drop in district numbers in a short time. Every district in that area has increasing numbers. Why not WW? When kids leave, are any of them going from WW to TB? If you know and can't post on the site I respect that. Don't want any slander on here. But there is a reason things happen when talking about large shifts in attendance in school districts. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So right!!! Same as “ you’re just not a good fit here” and “we need someone with a little more vigor” when a board member decides he doesn’t like an individual coach. And on and on and on. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weren’t they caught recruiting and got out on UIL probation and no playoffs for a year or two? That’s what I was referring to as a mess, heard it’s caused some problems there with parents of kids that have been going there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JasonDellaRosa Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 They did a review of applicants at their regular board meeting last week. Their next meeting isn't until the 17th, so it will take a special meeting to do it before then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bradbankman Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 When has WW been known as a baseball school. Watched a game or 2 don't seem to be the same mix or type of kids as when Lipsey was there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't say they are specifically known for a single sport. They have pockets of success for a couple years in certain sports but there isn't one that is their main sport.

bradbankman Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 Jason, can a guy win there like lipsey or is the talent way way off. If so why didn’t they keep Wiggins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've been making the playoffs -- three of four years, didn't make it 2020 because of COVID, they had to forfeit their last game that if they won would have made it 4 of 4. The biggest thing has been lack of continuity. Since Lipsey left, the head coach totals have gone: 1 year 2 years 2 years 2 years 2 years 2 years 4 years (Wiggins) And in their history, Lipsey is the only guy to get to a fifth season since Charlie Seesom's first stint from 1970-76. The new coach will be the 20th stint -- two guys came back -- in 46 seasons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BillyClydePuckett Posted April 5 Share Posted April 5 After coaching for thirty years I can safely say that there is at least one ABSOLUTELY sure thing on planet Earth. That being when a School Board decides to "go in a different direction" they are clueless that could go in two DIFFERENT directions. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, you never know what a school board may do when it gets behind closed doors. I got the trash can of going totally opposite of what the superintendent recommended. After, he said”I don’t know what to say “ and apologized. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
