Let's be honest - they wouldn't be competitive in 4A either.

I’d rather watch that game vs the 6A ones. Don’t disagree but having a kid that plays for them they have no shot in 6A. LT at 3700 kids is nuts.

  • OK, I guess I should do one of these this week because I love this week and I got nothing better to do than crank out 3000 words on Texas HS football while sitting in an empty house in Colorado.

And the big pads.

and no freaking shorts.

I know everyone does it now, but that's my "Old guy yelling at cloud" issue.

You can only petition to go up an class, usually for geography reasons or from 6-man to 2A.   Sometimes schools will have a beef with their actual District and request to be moved to a different one.  That one isn’t granted very often. 
 
Can’t remember anyone ever getting moved down, or everyone just above  the cutoff would be making that change.

How easy is it to fudge the enrollment numbers to move down or not move up a classification?

Those numbers also drive state funding, so it's a pretty big no-no.  Not sure if that actually answers your question though.

Glen Rise and Gilmer on YouTube. 
 

14-7 halfway though the 1st. Gilmer just retuned a kickoff for a TD.

PNG and Liberty HIll are on Bally Sports SW, even though it isn't listed.  7-7 end of 1.

SV trajeron todo. Up big on b-vets already, just too big and too fast. Hell of a run for the chargers though, and with lots of sophs and juns. SV looks good enough to give Aledo fits honestly. Good news is Freddie Dubose is a very fast human.

Aledo 15 Forney 0 after 1.

Forney has ball on the 11 going in.

21-20 chapel Hill at halftime. Difference was missed XP.  

Mart trails at half( didn't they trail last week too?)  Chilton 17, Mart 14.

I know last week Mart trailed Lovelady 20-14 before the Panthers woke up and closed it out 57-20.

 

 

Smithson Valley Rangers are murdering this Brownsville team.

Guns up!!!

Freaking Ballys has The PNG/ Liberty Hill game advertised and listed, but when you turn it on it's a game out of Florida with about as many people in the stands as a middle school game.

Vets mounting a huge comeback, just recovered a muffed punt return in SV territory, on the 11 in SV territory looking for score. 49-0 going into the 4th qtr, 50 point quarter incoming.

???  Not for me...

I love Buc stadium. One of the best in the state.

Aledo 22 Forney 7 at half

Forney D playing well. Picked off two jump balls. Their TD drive was off two big plays and a face mask penalty.

Gilmer could score 100 against Glen Rose if they wanted, I think. 

Gunter is up 38-17 on Canadian in the 3rd. It’s from what I read a dominating performance. 

Chapel Hill is up 42-26 over Davenport with 2 minutes left in the 3rd.

It does here for whatever reason, I get the pleasure of watching Cocoa v Bradford.

lol This is scoring in garbage time against SV 3rd string defense.

Only a 28 point game anything can happen in 4 minutes

They didn't lose they just ran out of time

Was this Brownsville team missing players? That was such an uncompetitive game, I figured SV would win but didn't expect it to be so lopsided.

Welcome to south texas/valley vs normal teams

Smithson Valley Rangers are going to the championship.
 

Great season by the Rangers and staff! Wife teaches at SV Middle School and the youngsters were so excited for their older brother/sister participants. On to Jerry World!

Hook’em!!!

They pulled off 3 pretty big upsets in a row to make it this far and have a first year head coach. In particular the last 2 games, their opponents thought they were in for a cakewalk and Brownsville took advantage to their credit. All 3 of their d-line starters were sophomores, sophomore MLB, they overachieved but ran out of magic. That’s just too much inexperience and lack of size to make up for. SV is no slouch either to say the least. Hope Aledo smashes them though. My region 4 loyalty ends at the northern edge of Reagan/Johnson boundary.

Did anyone think PSJAN or Miller could have contended with the R3 champ? I know SV was not expected to beat Collie Station

Cc Miller was in our district 14 years ago, and they were pitiful. I couldn’t believe they were undefeated up until last week …. Buc stadium was pretty cool though.

It might’ve been closer, both those teams were bigger & more athletic than vets by an easy margin. SV would’ve still been the big favorite though. They both also lost to B Vets fair and square so who’s to say

My friend that said Anna was going to win the title several months back is right. I switched over in the 2nd quarter of the Davenport game to watch them. They are ridiculously big and fast. He told me I’d be shocked to watch them play. That defense is the best I have seen from any 4A team I have watched and offensively that line is going to wear on Chapel Hill. Davenport got out-athleted, but that isn’t shocking. Next week Chapel Hill is going to face the same problem and get outcoached by quite a bit.

Justen Evans completely changed that program when he got there a few years ago. He was smart enough to use that MetroTech or whatever magnet school to recruit kids from all over corpus to where now they’re basically a corpus all-star team. Made the state semis 2 years ago I think. Has had a few guys go FCS or FBS already, should have one or two more on this current team.

CC Miller got a new coach about five years ago.    He got a bunch of kids who wouldn’t even give football a chance and would go straight basketball to come out for football and sure enough they adapted well.  
 

Their attendance zone is largely economically disadvantaged and that’s worked against them for decades.  One thing that helped Evans rebuild the program is Miller has a magnet school designation, so they can use that to “attract” kids from other attendance zones and even other ISDs. And being Evans is the only African American coach in the Coastal Bend and his staff favors that too, he’s been able to make Miller attractive for several transfer athletes who fit that demographic.
