Have to pull for Longview. John King, Longview’s HC is a distant relative of mine.

Is it just me or does the season seem to go by way too fast? It seems like just a few weeks ago it was early August and practice was just starting. We got one more week then a long 8 month off season. Time needs to slow down.

That last sentence is good advice ....

Any word on a Coach T sighting today at PNG? Lol

I come from an old school West Orange Chief family too. Purple Pride Never Dies!

I was thinking the same thing! Lol maybe they can put CT on the payroll for 1 week!

9-0 PNG

This was a post I posted on the book of faces today in 2018. This was the year after the 4 year state run. It popped up on my timeline today. Thought I’d share it here. “The Mustangs won’t go far in the playoffs, they said. They don’t have the talent and athletes like in years past , they said. They are having a down year, they said. See, they lost 4 regular season games they said. Well, well, but now here they are going to the 4th round and still playing football in December. Never underestimate the heart, grit and determination of the Mustangs.”

Coaching! One of my distant cousins is John King the HC there!! J/K lol I don’t know what it could be, just thought that’d be a good answer!

For those of you in the know, can you elaborate a little? I know you can’t go into much detail but can a little light be shed on the subject?

So what’s the story with Brenham? What threats do they have?

What are they going to change? Change back to the 5-0 defense? Change back to more intense practices? change back to more discipline football? they should have never got away from these things to start with.

You’d think that when the HC position became available, there would have been a plethora of coaches applying, but coaches talk to one another and they knew the toxic atmosphere the sup and some in the community created here.

You are correct, he is.

Someone was arguing with the coaches? Was this at last nights game or an earlier one?

Unless things change soon, it won’t take 10 years! More like 3-5!

Prayers sent

Why hasn’t Shaw been more involved with the offense?

Now another 4th down and WOS jumps offsides! Another first down and new life for Bellville! This has been all season!

Typical. Stangs had Bellville stopped and was forcing a punt deep in Brama territory but an unsportsmanlike penalty against WOS Ives Bellville new life.

Still nothing on KOGT

Cant get KOGT broadcast for some reason

Yep it’s handled differently for each case. We moved back to Orange (I say back because both the wife and I grew up there) in 2011. We had been living In Mississippi. Our son was going into his senior year and played football in Mississippi. He actually had been listed as a possible preseason all state lineman in the Mississippi Gridiron magazine. (There version of Dave Campbells). We moved back because of elderly parents, mainly my mom in law which my wife was her primary caregiver. When my son enrolled at LCM the district UIL committee had to meet to decide if he was eligible. They determined our move was not for athletic reasons and said he was eligible. They sent all the paperwork to Austin to the state committee to sign off on it and told us it’s just a formality the state almost always sides with the district executive committee. Well 1 person on the state committee didn’t believe us. Wished I could remember his name. Anyways they denied it because of him and my son was not allowed to play football his senior year. We appealed it and they set us up a meeting in mid December right before the Christmas break. Well after football was over! We did make the drive to Austin anyways and this time they approved him but little good that did. sorry for the long story but we really feel the UIL cost him playing his senior year. So yes it’s handled very differently depending on the situation involved and who’s sitting on both the district and state committees.

And on their website it shows them carrying it.
