Because Beaumont Middle Schools feed to different High Schools. Some kids at SFA will go to WB, some to Ozen, and some to Central and so on with the other middle schools. So the coaches at these schools are not instructed by the Head Coach at the HS. That puts the HC's at a dissadvantage. I think this is one of the reasons that the bigger ISD's like Houston and Dallas don't have the powerhouse teams anymore. Even Katy and Plano still have boundries for their feeder schools. Just a thought (and an observation from a BMT coach). I guess that explain it better. Although I think the guy that origionally brought it up was getting at something else... My Question about Brook still was not answered... Actually, that's exactly what I was going to say. I just didn't see your post and badndn beat me to it.

I think Ozen is going to be a solid team. When we were doing our predictions, I ranked them as fifth in our district over Lumberton, Livingston, and LC-M. I figure that Ozen will give a solid performance this year but won't make the playoffs because I think that Ozen still has to build a program and that's hard to do in a district like BISD.

Battlin' Bears bringing back the gold helmets
PN-G bamatex replied to Bobcatfan4life's topic in SETXsports Archived Threads
I doubt very seriously that they are "worried" about it. When you are setting off on a new program, sometimes it is good to change thinks up a bit to help the feeling of the new start. I think this is a fairly common occurrence and certainly not limited to LC-M. I don't think they are going to miss any two-a-days because of a new helmet logo. Isn't PN-G going to change their scheme up a bit? Maybe their new coach isn't worried about winning. 8) Good luck to LC-M, their new coach and their new helmet logo. We're basically doing a PN-G version of TCU's helmet. It'll look good in the end, but the only thing I wish they would do differently is make the facemask white instead of black. I think it'd look better that way while simultaneously staying true to our school colors. -
You are so right It is all about income. That new field at PNG did not come cheep, but Fans do not make the team better. There is no better fan base than PNG and they have not made the playoffs in years.So the fans can pay the bills but they dont win games. Fans don't win games although the surely add to it and they don't necessarily pay the bills either. Taxes pay the bills not gate receipts, and there are many people who foot the bills through their taxes that don't attend football games. It's true that the taxpayers foot most of the bill, but the fan base often provides a sizable return. I guess you can look at it from an investor's viewpoint. At PN-G, the ticket and concession sales bring in a LOT of cash. The notoriety of our fan base was one of the pivotal factors in helping us sell the advertisements on our scoreboard, which brought in more cash. Then again, we also have one of the largest followings of any high school in the state, if not the nation, so our return is probably much larger than, say, LC-M's or Ozen's. I also believe that the fans (as well as the band, drill team, and cheerleaders) bring an atmosphere that can motivate a team. The crowd may not be the deciding factor in who wins the game or who has the better team out on the field, but they certainly play a part in both of those comparisons. Spirit plays a role in a game just like talent, skill, or discipline. Its effect is certainly not as great, but it is an effect, nonetheless. Coming from PN-G, I know that well.

You hope. -
Sometimes, you just can't help it... I just haven't felt the urge to stand up and clap for... or even play Cherokee just yet. For some reason the Aggie War Hymn keeps dancing in my head though...... It's an insider thing.

Stadium Improvements at Barbers Hill

Are y'all going to make the visitor's band stands bigger? It was tough to fit our band in those tiny stands last year. -

Anytime.

While on that subject, the top game on your list (PN-G vs. Plano, 1977 Texas State Championship, 49,953) holds both the state and national record for attendance at a high school varsity football game. WOW really ! Were did you find that info at ? Just curious. Regarding the attendance record nationally. [Hidden Content] www.pngindians.com On Wikipedia, you can find it in the second paragraph under "School Spirit." On the Indians site, it's on that loading page that comes up when you go to the site.

Why do our schools, colleges, and professionals play football? It's a form of income. Where does that income come from? The fans.

Central, but it'll be close. -

Nah. Even if you did have some chance of winning, Livingston already did that. Well technically it wasn't completed then so now ::/ As far as I'm concerned, if a stadium is playable, it's completed. Not what u said on another thread. Where did I not say this? -

We'd bring the band and the Indianettes to the chess match with Nederland. So they can console each other after another loss. It is always good to show such support of each other like that. Heck, they probably bring grief counselors to the games with them and I applaud their efforts. I'd be careful if I were you. You may just get a surprise at that chess match. ;D And by the way, on behalf of my school, I'm challenging your school to a chess match. ;D

Yeah, you would think a school that used to be 5-a would have better parking access and facilities. here you go AGAIN!!!! dawging on vidor. what is your problem with vidor? For visitors, Vidor is one of the worst places to play. The visitor's stands are in terrible condition, there's almost no parking, and it seems like there's always stagnant water under the stands and everything's muddy. I can't speak to the home side because I've never been over there, but the visitor's side sucks. -

Vidor. I don't know what it's like on the home side, but the visitor's side is terrible. -
Technically, we haven't played a game since the stadium was built. "Built" implies completion. Our stadium wasn't complete until after the end of last year's football season. Putting all the technical crap aside, the last varsity football game for PN-G was under a different coach and played on a completely different system. Essentially, it was a completely different team. The spring game serves as proof of PN-G's improvement from last year. For these reasons, the results of last year's football season have virtually no bearing on PN-G's potential performance in the upcoming football season.
