That was every playoff team we beat last year, minus the first round.

O right a consistent team of stars. So Fb Marshall with 6 3-star players and a 4-star wide out? It's a dumb hill to die on trying to pretend 4AD2 has the consistency or depth of higher divisions. Yall have some superstars 100%, but it's a deluded belief to say you play the same level of competition.

No it just means you rarely see the overall across the board quality of athlete. You'll still see some top end athletes that's inevitable. Example. Texas high who we beat in the 2nd round last year had the following 4 Star LB whos now at Oklahoma 4 Star Edge whos committed to Texas 3 Star running back with 7 D1 offers and another edge rusher committed to a D1 School. The defense had allowed 13 ppg in 11 wins. Played the cougars? final Score? 62-42 With the cougars maintaining a 21 point advantage basically from the end of the first half. So everyone had prospects.

Lot's of 4-stars have intangibles, what makes you a 5-star is the measurable on top of the intangibles.

1. North Shore/Shadow Creek 2. United/West Brook 3. Lancaster/PA Memorial 4. Katy Paetow/Barbers Hill 5. Jasper/PN-G 6. WO-S/Nederland 7. Liberty/Huffman 8. LC-M/Hamshire-Fannett 9. Lumberton/H. Waltrip 10. Silsbee/Vidor 11. Hardin-Jefferson/Coldspring 12. Shepherd/Tarkington 13. Anahuac/Orangefield 14. Bridge City/Buna 15. Crockett/Corrigan-Camden 16. Hardin/Kountze 17. Kirbyville/Hemphill 18. Woodville/Newton 19. Deweyville/West Hardin 20. San Augustine/West Sabine 21. Somerville/Hull-Daisetta 22. Evadale/Bmt. Kelly 23. Center/Tatum 24. Grapeland/Shelbyville 25. Groveton/Lovelady

Lots of kids would be a 5 star if. there's a reason there are 5 stars and 4 stars.

There's this weird motivation thing I hear about when you see the kids before you do amazing things you work harder and show their work ethic so you can do great thing. I believe no school exemplifies that as much as Aledo so I think you know what they did in the weight room this year.

Okay so Kip Lewis is a 4 star linebacker #259 nationally #28 LB in country (composite) #42 Prospect in the state. Looks like a very good player. Not a 5 star recruit. I'm sure he is incredible tho look forward to playing him.

name?

Lol there are 3 five star linebackers in the country so unless Harold Perkins moved from Cy Park to Carthage you’re as high as a kite.

Yea, I agree. every coach I've talked to say the same thing. they were a different level of fast. Willowridges coach said it felt like they looked like they were running in mud when they watched the tape after.

This is the funniest thing I've read all year. When a team two classifications below attempts to claim they had comparatively similar competition. Rankings are fun I wonder what would happen is we compare the # of D1 athletes faced by each team. Willing to bet FB Marshall and Manvel alone have more than the entire schedule yall played.

Ahh yes those scores leading to a 5ad2 state title run.

I love that the Aledo fan is the one talking the mode shit lol.

Texan live is still a thing right?

FB or The other Marshall?

Only edit I'd make is Liberty Hill does not look nearly as stacked this year as last. Not sure we would even see them if we can get past that extremely good FB Marshall team again.

If that happens might as well just call Carthage the 2021-22 state champions. 0 scrimmages, practices affected by COVID and they still hold a high powered 5AD2 offense to 14? Add to it scoring 35 on a team anchored by 5AD2 All state D-tackle. Could happen but that would be far more impressive than a shootout that this could be.

Did this on wrong thread. Eastex where your predictions at.

So as far as i've heard game is still on. No one dropping those predictions tho? Where my Eastex posters at?

I doubt it. Has to be a guy or two that came home from Korea and left base to explicitly go to a football game. Think that's why title says driven.

But it probably wasn't the coaching.

We still don't care who you are. If that helps any.

I mean by SEC standards Aledo Alumni is telling the truth.

The number of offensive linemen this would exclude.
