Not sure Jones was a mobile QB in last years offense either. Doesnt mean he wasnt. I personally believe that this coach is trying to raise the football IQ on both sides of the ball. It takes dedication. I saw one special teams play, an no Im not talking about the field goal, that changed the first half and kept Silsbee close. The ability to strike fear in a player/opponent and it show on the field was something new for Silsbee. It brought them back to life, if only briefly. I look for more of that to take root. You cant have swagger without the ability to back it up with results.

If Coach Smith puts anyone in the backfield it will be Taylor. Lowe is fast but I am no fan of his blocking or aggresiveness. Fixing the problem will net Lowe a TD a game off the passing game, removing him as a downfield threat will only make the defense more bold. Newton had 8 sometimes 9 in the box. You can bet that Coach is working on a checkdown or audible for sure.

Poor statement as that was not the case at all. Tyler was an excellent back and made several plays on his own but for the most part O-Line was creating huge holes for him to run through by District. Watch film. Never even touched at line for most runs and was by linebackers before they knew it. Not taking away from his natural ability. Superb back, but SEVERAL games of 300+ yards and SEVERAL LONG runs (50+) show how well they were performing as a team. Patience people. Raising a teams football IQ will not happen in two years.

Nothing special happened in this game. At all. Except the field goal. Power football from Newton. Silsbee will be fine.

[Hidden Content] See above article from last year. I believe Navasota comes calling this year and will make this schedule even harder if Silsbee pulls through. jmo

There was lots of muddy water to navigate through last year for the Tigers Coaching staff. Understandable for sure. Obvious from the get go that when a new coach has a DI back the likes of Tyler you take it and don't ask questions. This helped tremendously in buying time for the coaches to evaluate their "Farm" system and current Varsity players. Once system was implemented, the trust factor had to be established. If early indications are to believed then the Tigers are playing much more as a team than past years. Still..... Only time and hopefully wins will tell. Seriously tough Non-District schedule has been set for this coaching staff. PNG Newton Jasper WOS (Homecoming) Havent seen any other schedule as tough, in the immediate area. #TigerNation

Well I'm sure we can just pass a bond. Raise everyone's taxes. I'm sure that'll be fine. Maybe Turf will come. It's just prob not gonna happen at this spot.

Field turf would be nice but having schools that aren't falling down around you are better. I'm no expert but when was the last time Lumberton built a new school? It may not been an issue but I do wonder. Silsbee's High School is already 17 years old. Just finished the elementary school and the middle School is hanging in with some timely remodeling and upgrades. I'll take the school first. Taxes that remain relatively unchanged and believe it or not, the grass field will be fine. It sucks when it gets damaged but hey.... It's football.

I do my best to keep it civil and between the lines. It is not a small task and for that I commend the moderators/admins for their work. Good luck. And with the graduation of my senior and no desire to sort thru this...... For the adult conversation I have with some of you, I will miss. Hopefully you feel the same. But for now, I bid adeu. Time for a break.

Without all the vitriolic comments shown above, I want to congratulate the Cardinal ballplayers and coaching staff. Came to play and took it in two. Play hard, play well. Bring it home.

SMH...nevermind.

Second time I've seen the gestures toward a team at the "end of the game". Last week as well against Tarkington. Might wanna get a hold of that.

Good thing yall have seen it twice for sure.

Maybe so. Silsbee will continue to deliver "beat down" in other moments and continue to split the rest most years. But thanks for pointing it out so eloquently.

I'm done. Bunch of Joe Buck's running the forum now.

I can see you watch basketball.

As it should be. Lets get it on.

Time to book Lamar Field. Make it a weekend for the locals.

N. Whitted with the win. Moves to 7-0 for the season. 7 IP / CG 1 ER / 3 Hits / 7 Ks / 1 BB 98 Pitches / 26 Batters Faced

Don't let us down Stangs. You know what we want. Represent.

Nope. Stephen Keller is #1 Silsbee should stick with what got them here. Sundgren / Whitted / Dunn Stop second guessing and just play ball. If you get hit then manage game. No pitcher is perfect.

Tomorrow. Crafty vs Power. Whitted vs Keller

Backfired last time Nelson tried that.

No broadcast then. Bummer.

Link not working. Any one else?
