Out of area teams are most of SeTx schools’ Achilles heel.

Lol. I still have mine somewhere...still in mint condition because I haven't worn it since high school. Still fits because I've taken pretty good care of myself. Don't mean to seem judgemental but I really hope no one is still wearing their letter jackets. Length of time is irrelevant. 5 months or 5 years...glory days are gone.

Seems like going to Carthage was a good decision.

No question. I’m just simply justifying my answer to the question asked at the start of this thread. Bottom line..Jasper will have to make it through some pretty good football in order to get out of the region. Reg 2 is a little tougher than the rest of them top to bottom.

And Atlanta may not be the cakewalk everyone thinks.

Pleasant Grove is probably the current favorite to get out of the region. That's who Jasper will get round 3 assuming they get there.

Unlikely

There will always be teams that miss the playoffs that could probably make it in other districts....and teams that get in or even win their district but probably couldn't make the playoffs in other districts. Luck of the draw. Happens on every level. There are a lot of NFL teams that could win Houston's division but don't make it.

There are definitely several examples that could be found...but not compared to the number of first-round playoff games there are. All irrelevant anyway...the UIL has discovered that the more games that are played the more money they'll make. I wouldn't be surprised if they just start letting everybody in the playoffs.

There aren't just a whole lot of examples to justify letting 4 teams in in any classification. I think it's justified when a 4 beats a 1..proving that some districts have 3 or 4 teams that could potentially win other districts. But that doesn't happen often. In fact I'd argue that it's happens so few times that the whole thing is more watered down than anything.

You're absolutely right. They scored 60 points in the district this year.... But scoring 60 points (2 touchdowns per game) leaves the defense on the field way longer than going 3 and out almost every single possession like last year.

Massacre

Having an improved offense will cause you to give up fewer points. So the QB helping to have longer possession time may have contributed more to defense than you realize.

How far above the last cutoff are they? They seem close...and UIL will probably adjust the numbers some. Nobody ever knows for sure.

Just assuming. Since the previous coach was ran off after game 5. Making him and Les Miles the only coaches in America to not get to even finish their season. And then the multitude of positive comments about the new coaching regime a couple months ago. You know...back when the Hornets were dominating the new teams on their schedule due to this new magic offense.

So let me get this strait... Hardin added a new coach and a new QB (best player I hear).. and still managed to only beat one team that was on last year’s schedule?? Maybe it wasn’t the coach after all.

What are you even talking about?...

Have still yet to see a rumor of any kind. But ok.

What exactly did I say that you are considering "garbage"? I'm just simply pointing out that...yet another WHATEVER going on in Beaumont ISD. she·nan·i·gans SHəˈnanəɡənz/ noun informal secret or dishonest activity or maneuvering. silly or high-spirited behavior; mischief

I wasn't intending on seeming irritated. I wasn't. My tone is often taken out of context but I'm just "talking". I've never seen them either but I have a good friend who was on the coaching staff. Believe it or not, I think that most coaches would love to be able to do both (run/pass). Unfortunately, it takes a certain type of clientele to do that. Well...to do either effectively. And it's very hard to be really good at running or at throwing it around. Not enough time usually to get good at both. But I believe that coaches truly do whatever style fits the kids they have. And that probably changes year to year. A vast majority are run-heavy teams in the sport of football probably not be by choice. Some teams are just so bad that lining up, running between the tackles, and burning clock is the only option for keeping it respectable.
