For starters, Hamshire-Fannett QB Ty Bryson passed for 3527 yards and 42 TD's while leading his team to district championship and 2nd round of the playoffs. Thomas had 2089 yards rushing and 24 TD's on a 4th place team that was eliminated in 1st round. Personally (and I do have a vote) it's down to those two for me for offense.

I have no clue. My priority is basketball playoffs. I am not running this forum.

I was speaking on general terms. I know you and a few others don't think this way.

Most of that growth is outside the 610 loop. Most of the HISD schools are inside the loop.

I agree. I'll be curious to see what HISD does if UIL makes divisional districts at next realignment. In the past, HISD has always opted up for their 4A schools to be in the same football district with other HISD schools. It puts all of them in 4A DI football district even though several have DII enrollments. If UIL makes schools that choose to opt up a division or class (like what BC, HJ and Liberty did in football) for all sports and not just football, then HISD will have a decision to make with some of their schools. I think it would be wrong to allow schools to opt up for one sport but allowed to stay put for other sports. You opt up, you opt up for everything.

Wait. You are not going to the Bellville/Stafford boys basketball playoff game tonight? What kind of Bellville fan are you? Have to start calling you a "WO-S, Newton" type fan. All football and to heck with everything else. lol

FYI, UIL wasn't the driving force for this division split. It was majority (not all and mostly volleyball and boys basketball) of what other sport coaches wanted. They felt left out because football is split. IMO, divisions are needed in football due to the numbers. Other sports do not need divisions. Hopefully at next realignment they go to divisional districts like football but there is no guarantee that UIL will do that.

Updated for Feb. 17

Reason I am going. I think it's one of the best match ups of all our coverage area games.

These are some very intriguing games for 1st round: Monday, Feb. 17 Summer Creek vs. Clear Springs Hamshire-Fannett vs. Houston Yates Crockett vs. Hitchcock Tuesday, Feb. 18 Atascocita vs. Dickinson Crosby vs. Lake Creek Beaumont United vs. La Porte Port Arthur Memorial vs. Iowa Colony Barbers Hill vs. Friendswood Bridge City vs. Madisonville Pollok Central vs. Orangefield Central Heights vs. Buna Shelbyville vs. Beckville Hemphill vs. Timpson San Augustine vs. Tenaha

All four that I voted for made offensive finalists. Two of the four defensive players got my vote.

This year's finalists: Offense Ty Bryson QB Hamshire-Fannett Mike Moshier QB Silsbee Hubert Thomas RB Nederland Mason Manning RB Orangefield Defense Matsyn Morris LB Silsbee Tayvion Hunter DE Woodville Tyler Kelly LB Anahuac Tucker Floyd LB LC-M The two winners will be announced at banquet on March 23

No team locally has even half the techs that Orangefield has been issued this season. It's not a referee problem.

They have 5 really good out of conference wins. They are projected to be a #3 seed. Silsbee's Jared Harris was getting some PT early in season. Not so much now in conference play.

Some pretty good matchups for the 1st round due to the split divisions. What games will you be attending? My Bi-District round schedule: Monday, Feb. 17 Hamshire-Fannett vs. Houston Yates at Goose Creek Memorial HS or (depending on if I can get over there in time) Livingston vs. Houston Washington and Tarkington vs. Houston Wheatley doubleheader at Porter HS Tuesday, Feb. 18 Beaumont United vs. La Porte at East Chambers HS
