Looking like the Christian are keeping the Southland from an O-fer against D1 opponents this weekend. Southeastern and Nicholls did play FCS teams.

34-0 4th quarter...DCTF website.

Thank you as well. One oddity about the HF HS campus is that it sits on the far west side of the district. It really is very close to the EC campus. You likely know this, but when the Hamshire Bulldogs and Fannett Falcons consolidated the Hamshire campus was superior at that time thus the HS is in that far west area. There are parts of the EC district less than 3 miles from HF's HS. Academics at HF vs. EC is debatable. Based on demographics (EC student has considerably more low SES and at risk students) HF should outscore EC in any academic comparison and that simply is not the case. In terms of UIL academic competition both have performed very well for years (not a great academic comparison, but worth noting). It surprises many people that really examine the 2 communities when the see how vastly different they actually are in income and other demographics. Now, I understand the classification argument, but recent sucees and lack thereof may have played a role. However, if you can play, the FCS, D2, and D3 schools will find you. Sadly, without naming names, I know 2 young man that found their way to EC that were enrolled at HF. The 2 i know, did it young and it was definitely for athletics, but legal (no recruiting involved, just kids and parents wanting what at that time was a superior athletic program). This is more an indictment of HF and past administration and a former coach losing respect from an vast majority of the ciaching staff and players in a first day speech than a praise of EC. Thanks for the conversation, Sep.

Not trying to being argumentative or implying you are as well. I know nothing in detail about this specific situation, but will ask a hypothetical. If you were a kid with no connection to EC or HF, which would you choose in the present circumstances? Facilities, turnover of coaching staff, etc. It's just tough to choose HF over the past few years. Now, that may be changing. However, I believe the young man you are referring to recently graduated and likely made the smartest move for himself. As an aside, I have tremendous historical connections to HF and in some ways its been sad to watch the demise of its athletic programs (and at times years ago I didn't mind it when coaching against them), but hope the new regime continues making the progress they have in the past few years.

That may be the case, but as a former public school educator, I will state the following....If my child lived in Beaumont we would be in a car every morning traveling out to another district. When those options leave about 10 driving manageable districts that sure leaves EC as a viable option. I truly mean this...even if a high level D1 recruit, we are heading somewhere else.

Bobcat1, you ruined my joke, but thanks for the laugh.

Surprised at how little "talk" this game is getting. EC is a "mystery" ths year. Only one scrimmage and not much other than a "score" report from it on this site and a lopsided game against an opponent they have thoroughly dominated in scrimmages over the past years. No prediction here and again just find the lack of discussion a bit unusual.

I'll stay coastal, but thanks for asking.

You would think so until you realize how much of a role government funding plays in public schools. Also, I could be wrong here. I think the stadium uses all available space to have all that is presently in place.

Very unusual picture of the stadium on the Texas Bob website. Shows the side without bleachers. Lived in the apartment complex behind the bleachers that you will see in the picture while in graduate school. Never saw the bleachers full. Just mingle with the locals in the bleachers available. Odd for Texas high school footbal, but not an unheard of situation.

They don't P in Hamshire.

Just playing around here and watched the video you posted on June 6th. I teach and work with these people everyday. I hold 3 and 1/2 college degrees (postponing retirement by at least 4 years because of it) and I will be the first to tell you for many the degree they have is as useful as a warm bucket of hamster vomit. Also, really fun in in-service meetings watching the, "my vocabulary is much more extensive than yours" games. Thanks for all your posts. Also, of note and I am sure you will appreciate it, my brother refers to me as the educated idiot of the family. He's probably right.

His twitter account reads that he is the DC.

Glad he did this, but can he do anything before DeSantis? As Jesse Kelly has stated, easiest job in America is being a Republican governor. Just wait for DeSantis and follow his lead.

That didn't take long. The GOP Conference Chair, Elise Stefanik (NY) has already congratulated Hageman on defeating Liz Cheney. This was done less than 40 minutes after the polls closed in Wyoming. She does this before any MSM calls the race to my knowledge. If this isn't unprecedented I'd be shocked. GOP chair calling a primary within the party before MSM! Some will say it was not an "in party race."

Cardinal acting just like the man you despise.

Because it's not a "mainstream" media organization people will question this. But, with a democratic president in place who is much less popular than Obama and no other "star" on that side, information like this makes 2024 so interesting. Trump, DeSantis or whomever needs Arizona, Wisconsin, and Georgia to flip. A little over 40,000 votes in those 3 states. Simply a matter of Democrat enthusiasm likely down and there are always independents that flip that make those 3 states so interesting. Wisconsin Supreme Court, like it or not, will play a huge roll with the recent decision on drop boxes. Arizona was really tight and Hispanics are flipping party alignment. Georgia scares me though. Weird statement here...I wish Kemp were on the ballot in 2024 instead of 2022. Might have a better shot at preventing poster board on windows and "better plumbing" at voting sites if he was on the ballot at that time.

Can't believe I'm in a forum about junior league football. One of your biggest issues that few people realize is puberty from a developmental standpoint. Feel free to roll eyes and stop reading if you wish. It's interesting how different races "hit" puberty at different ages, so this example really shows up in a predominant Caucasian population. 7th grade half back hit puberty before almost all other "candidates" for the position, 8th grade he is now the H back, and when high school comes around he has become an interior d-line player. I ask college players how many of you played with "this" kid in J. High and HS and almost all grin and have some similar example. I mention this to support those of you that understand the importance of development for the young athletes. There's only playoffs for Varsity teams in schools and that is how it should be. All other levels are for development.

I'll play along. Why Pelosi as VP? Rockefeller was Ford's VP not the Speaker of the House. Curious as to why her. If Harris becomes President, wouldn't she likely be the Dem nominee in '24? If so, she may prefer to already have her running mate in place. Quite sure she would never have Pelosi on the ticket. Age, national view of her, etc. Harris may also want a lesser "personality" than Pelosi.

Reagan! Get another source! 45thand46th said to. You must comply!

Lesser of 2 evils? I simply don't recall the DOJ under Trump going after mom's and dad's at school board meetings questioning curriculum and boys in girls bathrooms. Labeling concerned parents as domestic terrorist! If I'm wrong please enlighten me. I sadly get to see the textbooks the left puts out. Pick up a sociology text and explain to me how a so called moderate Democrat could even think about being part of that party. If lesser of 2 evils and his crew could, they would shut down every Christian based school in this country. They including 46 do all they can to withhold funding. There's your evil. I'll leave you with 1 more. When that party celebrates abortion you are evil. If you support it, I disagree. When you celebrate it, you lose all grounds for any discussion of evil. If you doubt they celebrate it , left wing articles have celebrate in the title of stories about the World Trade Center being lit to celebrate Cuomo's signing of an abortion law. CELEBRATE!! Sheer madness.

LCM93, my turn to call you out! Lol. I was referencing it's distance to Moorhead in Conroe. Mentioned Woodforest because Texas Bob states it uses both as a home facility. I believe all of Conroe ISD uses Moorehead at one time.

Scott High School in Woodville. I simply know this due to the late GREAT John Payton, quite possibly the most beloved coach/professor in LU history.

To hear political pundits on both sides discuss this issue....it is common place for former Presidents to have documents. There is often examinations/discussions about what can and can not be kept.

There are likely quite a few situations like that with a school on the edge of its district and bordering another school district. Oak Ridge is slightly closer to Spring High than it is to Buddy Moorehead in Conroe. According to Texas Bob, Oak Ridge utilizes it and Woodforest Bank stadium.
