  1. The ball is the same size in 2-a or 3-a.The years Carter went to state he coached in 1-a,however they were good enough to win the 3-a thru 1-a bracket of the YMBL tournament.The size of the scool has nothing to do with the knowledge of the game.You gotta coach who has 497 wins I dont care if he's in the Saturday morning lil dribblers leauge he has to know the game.I'm glad some of these small school coaches aren't well known,we couldn't afford to keep em.
  2. I had the privelege of playing against Deweyville in the early to mid 70's and you are correct.I can remember Warren and Deweyville in the late 60.s and early 70's.There was only ONE playoff team and that was some great standing room only games.Jessie Wolf (Tyler County Sheriff) and his brother James sure made those games special.Actually the best coach I ever saw down there coached the girls(they were very good back then also)Al Barbe who later went to Lamar.Deweyville has a good football club this year,but they also have tons of potential in basketball.I always enjoyed watching Coach Jackson coach,as long as I wasn't officiating.
  3. Carter from Warren has 497 career wins and a 2 state tourney appearances,cant leave him off this list.
  4. My heart goes out to the folks at EC after hearing about the tragic accident last week.Made me have a late night talk with my kids and reevaluate whats really important and what we sometimes think is.Our prayers from Warren are with the folks in Chambers county.Best of luck to all the teams in 24aa the rest of the way.
  5. My vote goes to Marc Esway from Warren.He has rushed for over 200 yards in just about every game this season despite the defenses keying solely on him.His only game this year he didn't have real good stats was EC,where he was injured with 27 seconds left in the first quarter.He had 55 yards in that quarter.He and Williams from Deweyville put on a show in the Warren/Deweyville game.Kid is very fast and has good size and is attracting several colleges.
  6. West Hardin wins this one if they don't turn it over.Letsinger and Simmons are healthy it's the oilers by 12.
  7. I honestly don't know if Warren or Buna will win.I do know Buna doesn't want anything to do with Newton!!!!EC is pretty solid this year but I believe Newton is still the best 2-a team in the area.They have 2 losses to solid 3-a clubs.
  8. Wouldn't like it in high school,sometimes slowing it down can keep a less talented group in the game if they are disciplined.
  9. This may actually help Buna,This could be the only thing to slow EC skill guys this year.Still pick EC by 14.Should be entertaining.
  10. I will take EC in this one by 14 simply because they are playing in Buna.I don't see Buna beating E/C or Deweyville and Warren will be a toss up.The 3rd playoff spot will come down to the last game of the season between Buna and Warren.God knows its time for Warren to win a close one.The final district standings will look like this. 1.EC 6-0 2.Deweyville 5-1 3.Warren or Buna 4-2 (This is a toss up folks)
  11. This year I don't know if it would be the OT loss to Woodville,the 1 point loss to Groveton,the 2 point loss to West Hardin or the 3 point loss to Deweyville.I think it's about time we won a close one :cry: :cry: :cry:
  12. Very good ballgame.Both teams had some early turnovers that balanced out.Warren was once again unable to convert an extra point and that was the differnce.Very few penalties and overall a great ballgame to watch.Hope the young man from Deweyville with the hurt ankle is OK.Good job by both clubs tonight.
  13. Warren's tailback looks to be moving pretty well.Should be real good ballgame.
  14. I was there also and saw some good hard hits but nothing dirty.Iwished our back hadn't gotten hurt but I thought it was a well played game with the exception of turnovers.no late hits or unsportsmanship penalties that I can remember.
  15. EC got their last test last friday.They won't be challenged again until the playoffs start.PS there are 2 anahuac players who haven't voted in the poll.
  16. Buna better have a good defense if they are going to play with E/C.Going back to the first of the season I have been posting about EC speed,but you will have to see it for yourself.Warren has a solid "D" no knocks on anyone else but it is the best I have seen in this district.I think the battle for second in this district will be this friday night in Deweyville.I just hope we have our runningback healthy.
  17. That's a great group to be compared to.Kountze will be as good as last year with all their guys back.E/C will have Tramain and Preston,both are very good,but not sure who else they have.Warren has their top 9 players returning including 2- 1st team all district selections.It will all depend on how they take care of the ball.They will have 4kids who are around 6"3 and they have a couple who can flat light it up from behind the arc.Kountze has to be the favorite but Warren will turn some heads this year.
  18. Todd is not declining,just reloading.HJ will be much better than most people think this year.
  19. I'm not saying Deweyville doesn't win.I just don't see an 18 point spread.If Esway is able to play Warren will make the Pirates awfully uncomfortable.The Warren ,E/C game was a 1 possesion game until E/C scored with 1:36 left in the game.If both teams are healthy this game is to close to call.
  20. Wake up Rico,your not in Kansas anymore.All Warrens loses combined are about 18 points. :roll: :roll: :roll:
  21. Deweyville has 2 weeks to prepare and home field.I still think it comes down to whether Esway is healthy enough to play.He is the playmaker on the offensive side of the ball for Warren.Warren has some more weapons but they rely on him.If he can go this one is to close to call.If not Deweyville probably wraps up the #2 spot.JMO
  22. Da Whack must be in big trouble. :shock: :shock: :shock:
  23. Warren lost Marc Esway their best running back in the first quarter but stiill managed to keep it close.3 interceptions and 4 fumbles will get ya beat every time.Congrats to EC we knew we would have to control the ball to win and we just turned it over way to much.Defense played pretty well to be on the field so much.
