One of the parents of a QB commissioned some "QB expert" to do a study which "proved" why his son should start. (I know-what a surprise!) He then presented it to the befuddled coach, who must have thought he was in the Twilight Zone. Lmao! Around these part the fricken baseball parents are worse. Fucking select leagues are ruining youth baseball and planting unrealistic shit in parents heads. The previous response I posted was about the issues football coaches face with parents. Baseball coaches it’s probably several times worse at your baseball powerhouse schools. Especially if you have a group of kids who have played select ball together for years on the same team get to high school and parents expect Junior to start on varsity as Freshmen because Coach Kissyourass tells you what you want to hear for the money. Glad my youngest in someways gave up baseball before he got to high school because some of the Baseball Karen like Moms are some of the worse bitches out there with their criticism of other kids while their own darling goes 0-4 at the plate.

August 22, 20214 yr 9 hours ago, Helobious said: Non-RGV football isn’t my area of expertise, but I have a hard time imagining Mater Dei won’t wipe the floor with Dville. Mater Dei gets the best players from all over SoCal and even a couple out of state move in’s, Dville just gets the best players from South DFW. And I think Dville will have a new QB too. Duncanville doesn’t even get the best South DFW kids to themselves, too many top notch programs right next to them (Desoto, Cedar Hill, and to a lesser extent Lancaster) that split the talent.

August 22, 20214 yr It always seems that a lot of these cross state games between high profile teams are always scheduled when the Texas team isn’t going to be as good as they were the year(s) before.
August 22, 20214 yr Those JaQuinden Jackson Duncanville teams could compete with national powers, they beat the hell out of St. John’s, a big time team from DC. But they played IMG last year post-Jackson and got beat down.

August 22, 20214 yr 2 minutes ago, Beau Vine said: Shit, you left out Red Oak. Speaking of... Quote Chris Parson, a four-star quarterback for the Class of 2023 from Texas, has moved to Ravenwood, first-year coach Will Hester confirmed to The Tennessean on Tuesday. Parson, a 6-foot, 190-pound quarterback, was the No. 8 prospect in Texas and No. 3 dual-threat quarterback in the country. He's also the No. 91 overall prospect for 2023, according to the 247Sports Composite. Parson started for Duncanville in the 2019 Class 6A championship game in Texas and played last year for Red Oak. He completed 39 of 70 passes for 541 yards with four TDs and four interceptions, according to the Dallas Morning News. He also rushed for 488 yards and 11 TDs. Parson has at least eight offers, including Iowa, Kansas, Oregon State, TCU and Virginia Tech. Hester said Parson, who is originally from Williamson County, had been at Ravenwood for a couple weeks. He played for the Brentwood Blaze youth football program. "Obviously (Tuesday) the information got out there and things really has blown up," said Hester, who made it clear that no starter has been named for the season just by Parson's arrival. Hester said he hasn't seen Parson throw in person. Ravenwood is currently only allowed to lift weights and run for conditioning. Edited August 22, 20214 yr by Beau Vine

I don’t follow national high school football very closely. However….The last time I remember a number one national team from California coming into Texas was when Euless Trinity beat De La Salle. For those of you who have a little more insight….will history repeat itself? Or is the Cali team a legit number 1? I live out here. I have a hard time believing a California team could beat a Texas powerhouse mainly because nobody seems to give a shit out here and they don't seem to commit many resources. SJB apparently kicked the crap out of #15 Miami Central though.

IMG has its share of 4 and 5 star guys of course, but I've seen first hand that they have plenty of guys that are slightly above average players whose wealthy parents let the sales pitch play on their delusions of grandeur...the sticker price to go there is about $70k and I have a weird feeling that Dylan Moses and others that were in that recruiting stratosphere didn't pay that, if anything at all

His video is basically nothing but him taking off and running (which he does well), and I've heard complaints from friends who watched both scrimmages that he really can't pass and tucks the ball and runs as soon as he sees the first option covered.
August 26, 20214 yr Best day of the year, Helobious Poll. And football starting is ok too I guess. Hoping no one gets more than 2 games cancelled this year. 1. Edinburg Vela - still top dog until proven otherwise. Bringing back a fuck ton of players, except the QB 2. Harlingen - Junior RBs Bell & Torres are thunder & lightning. DL Huerta & LB Moradel are great leaders & players to boot. New QB for us as well. 3. Mercedes - JR receiver Tyrell Trevino is the next ZaiRaivion (who ended up at TAMUK). Trevino has a higher ceiling imo. 4. PSJA North - program on the rise. Their QB Aparicio is supposed to be the next big thing. They don’t run the offense for him to put up Marburger/Gilpin stats but watch out for him. 5. Mission - Their star QB Duran apparently transferred to SA churchill for baseball. Still lots of other talent. 6. Weslaco East - Burget is one of the most underrated coaches around. 7. Weslaco - losing a lot but Stroman knows what he’s doing. 8. San Benito - solid team, good QB, still property of the Cardinals. They can shove their indoor practice facility up their ass. 9. Sharyland Pioneer - we’ll see how much Marburger magic meant to them. 10. Brownsville Hanna - from doormat to respectable program. And a surly shoutout to Zach Gomez (of 9 TDs-while-on-coke fame). After some stints in jail & rehab he apparently got clean and has walked on at TAMUK, making the team as a QB. Quite the story. Hope everyone across the state has a great season.
