  1. Not anymore Iā€™m moved on to greener pastures. Iā€™m a Tiger now buddy
  2. Little Cypress-Mauriceville Athletic Director and Head Football Coach Randy Crouch has announced his intentions to retire at the end of the 2020-2021 school year. According to Crouch, ā€œAfter playing or coaching for 55 years, itā€™s time. I want to thank Little Cypress-Mauriceville for the opportunity to be the AD and Head Coach for the past twelve years and for the four years I spent as an Assistant Coach. The support here is wonderful.ā€ He also thanked LCM Superintendent Stacey Brister for the leadership that she has provided and is also appreciative of Dr. Pauline Hargrove, who is the retired Superintendent who hired him. Crouch also wants to recognize his wife, Dewanna, who has been so supportive through the years. Coach Crouch was an Assistant Coach with LCM from 1994-1998, prior to going to WOS as Offensive Line Coach with the Mustangs. He returned to LCM in 2008 as Athletic Director and Head Football Coach for the Battlinā€™ Bears. ā€œThe older you get, you realize how important it is to impact students in the right way, and LCM is great at that,ā€ he said. ā€œI do hope that I am leaving the program better than it was when I got here.ā€ Bears have made the playoffs six of those twelve years under the leadership of Coach Crouch. Randy Crouch has had numerous awards and recognitions through the years, including being named Coach of the Year by the Southeast Texas Coaches Association. He was also named to the Bulldog Football All-Century Team in August of 2001, honoring the 50 greatest players from the first 100 years of Louisiana Tech football and the 50th Anniversary team along with Terry Bradshaw, Roger Carr, John Causey and other notable standouts. Superintendent Stacey Brister had this to say about him. ā€œCoach Crouch has made a tremendous impact on our students, staff, and the community throughout the years. I appreciate all that he has given to our District to better our athletic programs. He has been an outstanding role model for our students and coaching staff. We will miss him and wish him the very best in his retirement.ā€œ
  3. Iā€™ll say Liberty Hill will be playing there heart out for there Head Coach that past away last month. I think it will be a hard fought game and Crosby should win the 2nd half
  4. Liberty hill defense is pretty soft
  5. speed can only do so much. IMO the most discipline teams win most ball games. Congrats on the win and good luck
  6. Heck I still think we are winning the overall series between vidor. Maybe in few years yā€™all can take the lead.
  7. Pinetree doesnt look good at all. Go bulldogs we need someone to win in our area
  8. The head ref was giving his audio pack to a guy in a maroon hoodie if thatā€™s what your talking about. Iā€™m assuming that guy was in charge of the field and probably didnā€™t care who won the game lol. Thatā€™s a silly allegation they are trying to make that he got paid off. Iā€™m sure if a ref does get paid off itā€™s behind close doors.
  9. I came on here because I saw 5 pages on LCM and I thought It had been something good. But I was sadly mistaken. Go Tigers!
  10. I watch the second half of the game and I believe the game was lost due to coaching and the kids coming out flat. It appeared that Lindale wanted the game more. Thoughts?
  11. The local NAACP has filed a complaint with the UIL following Friday's state semifinal game between the Lindale Eagles and the Austin LBJ Jaguars. The Eagles won the game 31-28, but the NAACP believes it was because of unfair officiating. The president of the Austin NAACP asked the UIL to postpone Friday's state championship game until an investigation can be completed, but the UIL said that's not going to happen. It was after the Friday Night lights turned off in Humble, that LBJ Jaguar coach Jahmal Fenner had a chance to look over video of his team's loss during the state semifinal game. "It just drove it home for me that what I felt during the game, that something wasn't right. It just confirmed it for me," Fenner said. After the first half of the game, the Jaguars led 28 to 7. In the second half, Fenner said officials called 16 penalties on the Jaguars, while ignoring all but two penalties made by the Eagles. The Eagles went on to win by a field goal after an LBJ touchdown was called back. "I don't feel like my players and my team lost that game solely because we played bad or we made bad calls. Yes, some of that did take place, but the officials had took part in some of that as well," said Fenner. Dozens of parents and players are also convinced something was up. Austin NAACP President Nelson Linder said he received about 60 calls and letters regarding officials at the game. Although the NAACP doesn't usually get involved in high school football, Linder said this time he felt it was necessary. "It was definitely a racial issue. I got some calls about racial slurs, people being ugly, nasty, no doubt about it," said Linder. "I don't like being a sportscaster. I'm not good at that, but I do understand what's right, what's wrong, what's fair, what's unfair. This to me is very, very clear. This was ugly. It should never have occurred in any sport for these young people. These kids, their spirits have been broken," he added. Linder asked the UIL to take action prior to the state championship game, which the Eagles play in on Friday night. "Look at the tapes. Look at some of the complaints. Check out the referee's background, make a decision. Postpone tomorrow night's game, replay the game, come up with a fair solution where the best team, the deserving team, plays in the state championship," Linder said. The UIL responded in a statement to Fox 7 Austin that reads, "All officials are agreed upon by both parties in advance of a game and per the UIL Constitution and Contest Rules section 1204, a protest based on a game or contest officialā€™s decision will not be considered. While the UIL will not be formally investigating this matter, The Texas Association of Sports Officials has a process for reporting rule misapplication by an official and investigating such reports." The NAACP has since responded, "We will definitely pursue this process further. Of course, we were intent upon filing the complaint before tomorrow night's championship game. It was important to let the students know that we knew they were treated unfairly. We will now take our concerns to the Texas Association of Sports Officials. Itā€™s important that these kinds of incidents are exposed to the public. We will also consider possible legal actions." Lindale athletics did not respond to requests for comment.
