That Highschool cannot hold 3800 students so the two High School talk is going to restart again. Even with the planned expansion that building is no where near big enough to hold that population. Ten year projections have been waaaay off before but perhaps this is our last alignment pre-6A we will see. When we get put in that Humble/King/NS district we are going to quickly become irrelevant in football unless there is some fantastic program building.

I'm going to take the #1 Team in 5AD2 for this one... sorry Dogs.

*dribbles* *cries* *dribbles* Well see yall in Basketball season in a 1-3 weeks.

The district described makes sense but there's not universe where you send Deer Park across the Bridge.

What? They are geographically connected districts... unlike GCM.

Looks likely that La Porte and GCM will need to be 6A, if the rest of Baytown goes up to, then we will have a wildly different district next year.

La Porte might end up being the largest school in 5A or the Smallest School in 6A right at the cutoff.

A good Coach cannot make unathletic bad players good. But a bad coach can make their athletes bad football players. A good coach is sufficient for success with nearly any student body. A bad coach will kill talent. 60% Coaching, 35% Kids, 5% other factors. Other factors can be much bigger if there is a major event. Example when Liberty Hill lost their coach they had a different level of commitment to that program and were incredible because of it. They had the other pieces as well but that other factor had huge implications. I do think these can shift.

Like we are getting the 0-8 broadcaster.

So Dr. Patterson is an amazing person no question about it. Having worked with her as a teacher of her child she was always really positively involved. From what my contacts (former colleagues) in the building can tell me that nearly all of her mistakes that are being viewed are about athletics. Every school in the entire district has been measurably better under her leadership. She has taken several schools that had rating issues such as the middle school and Barrett Primary and pushed them into well rated academic schools. The education in Crosby has literally never been better than it is today. Within a school district with 50% free and reduced lunches you have a thriving academic environment. Football coach hire was a failure under her leadership and those ultimately fall to the Supers feet in these sort of districts. The truth is firing the coach and hiring a new one is much more palatable then firing a Super, especially one with a lot of community support and who has measurable achievements. Not privy on the baseball coach situation but I'll take your word on it. Four day work week is in year one that'd be like measuring success for your child at the two week mark and saying your kids an A student. 85 Million Bond is about growth, and getting buildings up and running before every building is beyond capacity. It won't be the last bond because the area is exploding with growth. I wouldn't be surprised if the two high school talk starts again. Too many people forget what a Superintendents job is. It has nothing to do with the football team or baseball team and if that's all your going to look at with a district then you need to get your priorities straightened out. As someone who has three nieces and nephews in the district I could care less if the entire athletics program imploded if it meant my family gets a better education. I'm about as hard core a Crosby football fan as there is but priorities are waaaaay off on this post.

Final score is 100% determined by PAM. Yall like to play down to people.

it's now Willis' son.

That's simply not true. There is plenty of talent on this team, but talent minus coaching = this result. There are three D1 players on this team, just because the other kids aren't D1 doesn't mean they wouldn't have played. The Tight End is really good he's put in bad spots having to catch timing routes over the middle and getting flatlined. The receiving core has not been very good. And we've had plenty of not very good O-lines through the years.

Honestly doesn't matter as long as this is the coaching staff. Pretty sure they won't be able to let the Coaches son run the offense without the kid getting some crazy flack right now.

We all can name them, let them have their time Crosby is down until we drop this coach off but hey our area consistently produces very good football players we will rebuild.

Incredibly impressive this PNG defense is nasty.

Unironically this isn't the worst team Crosby has had, but it's by far the worst coached team we've had in what two decades? Like when I actively want Flannigan back that's all you really need to know.

Don't worry that coaching staff is gone. We are Liberty level coaching right now.

Meh, Crosby's talent is good enough to compete but they have substantially worse coaching than anyone else in this district (outside of Sterling/GCM). Old guy needs to hang it up doesn't have it anymore. Crosby's biggest issue is we had a coach come in and try to make players play his system instead of evaluating what system is best for the players. Crosby is much more talented than their record but when you're coach runs the ball up the middle 25 times in the second half while losing what are you gonna do? Defense looks like a shell of what it was last year as well so it's all the way around that coaching staff. Hope the coach retires, so we can get someone who actually wants to do the job in the building.

Only way Crosby comes out of this positively is with some bunker mentality. The one thing for Crosby is that they need every game now. I wouldn't want to be playing a team with this level of scrutiny from the adults in the area. Granted many of those "adults" act like children. We will see, the defense just got torched by Lee, Lee is generally good for an upset a year it appears. Last year was PAM this year Crosby. I mean given the posters on here we should just forfeit now, why even play the game.

That's not how a post works. Off topic threads get sent somewhere they cannot move the post without the thread.

If Marshall runs through district like they are expected to you will have a very different looking FBM at the end of the year than at any time previous. An Unbeaten team who faced quality opponents.

The real question is how many teams don't put 50 on GCM this year.

My prediction is a bit hopeful probably but Cougars win because their defense shows out and the offense does enough to make it not that close. When comparing athletes Crosby is lightyears ahead but that only means so much when you are stumbling over yourself at every opportunity. Crosby 28-7
