Good for Central's playoff run! They should be very good again this year! Ozen should also be very good and balanced with good ball handlers, shooters and deapth on the blocks! It's funny how now-a-days there would be a conversation of whether these schools could beat Nederland for a District Title? They have some good players and a good head Coach but has Central & Ozen kids/coaches fallin' off that much? When I played it was an automatic 20 to 30 point victory because we played hard, smart, did what we were told to do and simply refused to loose! Oh, I get it the rolls have reversed, it's not all about atheleticism because Central & Ozen definetly have that! Seriosly though, if these players mindset and work-ethic change the only conversation for 20-4a District would be who will be the 3rd & 4th playoff teams after Central & Ozen! Jumping doesn't assure rebounds as much as blocking-out! [/quote] I'm glad my little cousin is staying. I don't wanna hear any excuses from Central alums this year  :D [/quote]Aww shoot...  ;D

[quote name="Bigcam2903" post="1422901" timestamp="1376052283"] Soulja, in no way was I questioning the Coaches credibility. Was responding to blogger "Coach" that posted last yrs records. JMO, I think 1 - 3 in district is a toss up. Central & Ozen no doubt has talent. There is no reason for either school to miss playoffs with 4 teams going. Yeah I said it, no EXCUSE to be absent from post season. We should be one of the 4 every year with the talent we have. Other 2 spots the rest of the District can fight for that. It can be done. We did it @ Lincoln in Basketball forever. It takes belief & a Coach that knows & cares about their players. I can hear the naysayers now. "Non Believers" Losers Mentality. Hopefully MaGee & Foreman have a winners mentality that rubs off on their programs. It starts at the top. Mighty Bumblebees [/quote] 8) 8) + 1 for you!

[quote name="Bigcam2903" post="1422885" timestamp="1376044113"] I've said it once & I'll say it again to Jags fans. You have the WOS Coach, unless you snuck in a few quality players also the score will be about the same as last year. To the rest of 20 4A, I still don't understand how most bloggers have Ozen @ the bottom battling for last playoff spot.  1 - 3 in District will be a toss up. If it comes down to the last game of the Season, we will have a 3 Teams share the Title.  I have no idea why PNG is in the equation. Go Panthers!!!! [/quote]He coached for WO-S over 5 years ago...NOT as a HC.  I'm still waiting to see how he does.  I'll be crucial on him just like any other coach untill we see results.  But I do know that we have just as much talent as you guys on the sidelines and ANY coaching staff could be better than what he had the last couple of years.  That means we'll be competing for a playoff spot and possibly more.  Actually I think Ozen will be very darn good will flat out say that the Soul Bowl will be a VERY interesting one.

[quote name="dogbite" post="1422067" timestamp="1375873656"] A strong running game, strong defense, and great coaching.  Should keep Nederland in the hunt for another DC and possibly State. [/quote]Nederland will have a good team, no doubt with a solid running game and good defense, but as far as a serious state title run?  It will depend on how the chips fall.  Georgetown is still out there along with your Dawsons, your Angletons and teams like that.  If the other strong teams in the region are upset and/or Nederland peeks  in the playoffs, this may be THE  big year for Big Ned.

Amen on that.  I grew up not far from the MLK highway/railoroad project in the late 80's and early 90's.  We used to take the construction sticks and play sword fights all day every day.  Football in the open fields.  'Hot' ball when it wasn't enough for teams.  Hid and seek.  Building tree houses.  All we needed was the water hose...and to have our butts in the house before the street lights came on.  We were not INSIDE children, unlike the kids of today...

It's really hard to gauge what Central will do in any of the questions that Jackthehammer posted.  There is a lot of unknown.  I know that they looked crisp in the spring football game, but it's games vs. yourself.  I havn't seen him implement a game plan against anyone nor have I seen him make an in game adjustment.  But, what I do know is that this team, talentwise, will be just as loaded, if not more loaded than the reigning district champions.  Can they be put in a position to win 8 games?  It's possible.  Can they beat Nederland and PAM?  Possible.  Can they rival the Champs for the district crown, most definitely.  Maybe after a scrimmage, I can make a better analysis...
