Coach Speir has brought us light years from where we were when he took over. Uncle Fester just about killed Western Football forever. We will get better on defense when these kids grow up. As far as all of the folks on here that comment about how bad the coaching is and what should be done, I stand by what I said. Most of the people that comment don't know what they are talking about and are trying to be Monday morning QBs. I hope Coach Speir is our Head Football Coach for the next 25 years if he wants to be. You are correct that the main problem has been and still is the administration and BOT. They have no vision for athletics or football and halfway fund it. At our level, we can't keep assistants because the good ones will leave for more money. So that is why we have to break in new assistants every 2 or 3 years. So even if you cleaned house tomorrow, no matter who you bring in, they would have the same problems that Speir is having. We tried your strategy when we fired Hodges and Briggs and a host of other coaches because they were not winning. The problem was not the coaches. The problem is the leadership of the school, plain and simple.
