Td Crosby 7-0 

 

turns out just handing the ball to Jones is working pretty well. 

Something they didn’t do last week until the 4th quarter.

Get it in this week. You know what time it is next week. 

Next week is the same as last week and this week, glorified scrimmages that mean nothing and don’t count towards district or playoff seeding.

Why? Cause no way a 4a defense could be better then bigger schools

No, it has to do with my opinion of Crosby’s offense right now. Honestly, you only had one guy making plays on defense. Our QB dropping a lot of snaps and having to pick it up cost him time to look down field. Anyhow, that game is over and this is a new thread.

Did you ever hear me say that or are you just quoting me to flap your gums ?

Manvel - 52

Holy Grail of Football - 35

Unless Manvel’s defense is terrible, we won’t get 35.  

Hopefully that is not all the kids Crosby is suiting up on Varsity. Only 36 ?  And I know some of those were the JV players.  No way we can play all season with our two best receivers playing both ways. They had little production on offense to speak of. Also, the QB can’t drop half the snaps.  He doesn’t have time to look down field because he’s picking up the ball. 

Y’all are getting way too over excited about a non-district game that means nothing. I think whichever team is on top at the half, the other team will throttle back and play 2’s. These non-district are just glorified scrimmages.

You see the same thing with some rookie NFL, NBA players signing big deals on hype alone.  I would think there would be clauses in the contract that would reduce the payout or end the contract in the case of lack of playing time due to losing a starting job or just washing out completely .    Maybe not for injury though unless it was a career-ending injury.  If not, then that is the companies fault for not protecting themselves.

It would be interesting to know how much money has been spent on athletes that don’t perform as anticipated. Johnny Manzel comes to mind.

BH vs. Baytown Sterling 8/19 @ BH 

 

Crosby vs Tampa Bay 8/19 in Tampa unless Brady chickens out.

They are coming to our house. Brady’s never experienced Mecca.

Yall better be ready week-3 regardless of the first 2 weeks. I'll leave it at that. 

I don’t think whether they are “ready” will be an issue.  Having a new squad of kids is where I see Crosby having a problem. They don’t return a lot. And, I for one, certainly view these pre-district games as glorified scrimmages. They don’t mean anything when it comes to seeding in playoffs, etc.  I wouldn’t even have starters on the field the second half.

IDK, kind of hard to play Cherokee when you're down 54-14?

Nah, that gets played EVERYTIME they make a first down.

I hope BH makes the right choice, not necessarily the fast choice. Its worth waiting to get the right one.  

Even if it means waiting just weeks before the season starts ?  At this point, it may be better to promote within for this year. The season is not that far off. 

Lake Creek won 2-1.

Crosby won 8-6.

Crosby wins state in the 4x100 !

I have argued for years that with availability of rental properties (mostly apartment buildings) within bigger school districts it is just about impossible to keep parents from changing their "permanent address" to wherever they choose for whatever reason they want.  Does Aledo have this feature (rental property)?  I have no idea.  I'm just sharing the ways in which successful schools recruit without recruiting.

A guy once told me those aren’t “rental property” or “apartments”. That’s “athletic housing”.

So I assume this is the opposite of ‘real basketball’...  

not sure what you mean by “real basketball”, but both these teams beat a lot of “real teams” to get here. 30+ wins for each of them with only one loss each. That’s about as “real” as it gets.

We lose all of our top offensive weapons. 

McCoy Casey is maybe the only defensive starter returning (great to have the district defensive MVP back) 

I believe 2-3 of the offensive lineman are back. 

 

Who's got insight? 

 

I hear the Cyrin Miles kid is pretty good. 

 

is it a two headed monster at RB? or will Jones or Smith take the job outright? 

 

Looks like Kirkwood and Womack are returning at receiver. Can Womack run the ball like Wilson did from the inside position? Will Kirkwood turn that big frame into a big play receiver? He hit that bomb versus Nederland and a crucial TD versus Huntsville that gives you a lot of hope given how good that Huntsville defense was and how much Nederland was trying to not get beat deep. How will he deal with top CB's next season? Will we move him around to resolve the top CB one on one scenarios. 

 

Who can break out Roberson, Samuels, Parker, Leos. 

 

Who is this Eudy kid? He played varsity as a freshman is he the next big thing? (Or is he only a punter.)

I have my opinion who may be the good RB from Crosby but I will just keep it to myself for now. I’m not referring to either Jones or Smith. Crosby does have a LOT of positions open though. Next year may be down but I think after that they will look good. I believe the Eudy kid was the QB on the freshman team. He was brought up to punt when Dunn injured his ankle. 14.2 can clarify as to what position he played on the freshman team.

NCAA D1 in the Southland Conference I believe. I could be wrong though and just ranting. 😜

I assume you don't understand how all district works and that is ok. If you are named an MVP in a category that supersedes any first or second team placement in all district. So in fact Dunn being offensive MVP puts him above all other offensive players. Would you just prefer it be called the all Crosby team so you don't have something to rant about? 

It’s also not a rant. Just pointing out the silliness of how the district does this. For example, how many of those kids on that list will get a D1 scholarship. Branch is committed to one and didn’t even make 1st team high school district. Now how much sense does that make ?

Has nothing to do with “Crosby team”. I would look at it like this:  If I was fielding a “first-team” from 12-5a, Reggie Branch would be starting on it. Again I understand how they do it but also think that is ridiculous. For example, if a player played OL and DL and was hands down the best in the district at both positions, he can only get awarded for one. Back to my point that “everybody gets a trophy”.  Just saying.

Yes. All district teams are voted on before playoffs. Playoff stats and results do not matter.

I understand that, too.  But then how do you put Dunn at Offensive MVP when he only played RB during district, and didn’t make 1st or 2nd team at that position ?  Like I said, they pretty much made sure everybody got a trophy.

The coaches in the district vote on all district

Yea, I knew that.  I guess I should have asked, what are these people thinking. It looks like a list of “everybody gets a trophy”.

Wow, who comes up with these ?  Reggie Branch led his team to the state finals and the only accolade he gets is 2nd team all-district QB.  Didn’t even consider him for what he did as a RB, not even 2nd team. Terrible.  

I don’t know about teams, but I won’t go back if they have the same “social distancing” restrictions. That took away from the whole Friday night football atmosphere. Groups of people sitting 20 feet from each other just felt ridiculous. Crowd noise wasn’t the same, cheerleaders and drill team wearing masks the whole time.  Just didn’t seem like high school football championship games.
