I think Jasper admin saw what happened at Hardin and don't want that to happen to them. Not to mention the dilemma they had last year with the hiring.

[/quote] Is this the same Bo Robinson that was at Bangs? [/quote] Yes - see article. [url=[Hidden Content]]

[quote name="Mike_Honcho" post="946809" timestamp="1294852958"] can anybody confirm Wades hire [/quote] Actually, the Piggly Wiggly was already scheduled for Clayton Bigsby's book signing.  I don't think you have the correct information.  I do hear that a "large" gathering of sorts was spotted at Jenny's Fried Chicken.  

I like the music!!  Made me feel like a kid again!!

First of all, Woodville "should have" beaten Newton and Anahuac is a false statement.  In both games, they were up by two scores (three on Anahuac if they make the XP) and in both games they were simply outplayed and gave the lead away!  A lack of depth can not be an excuse in 2A ball.  Newton and Anahuac both have players that play on both sides of the ball - just like Woodville. That being said, Woodville is definitley the team to watch next year.  They return the heart of their team and their athletes!!  They are going to be good!! I say they are first place in the district going into the 2011 season. Woodville has a good shot of winning against Buna but Buna is playing just as good right now after an impressive win against EC! I am going to take Woodville 27-20.

Doesn't matter when or where - Kville will knock the BROWN outta Brownsboro!!

[quote name="ECBucFan" post="894348" timestamp="1288668908"] Anahuac and everyone else can call EC "[u]Co[/u]-champs" all they want, [i]as long as EC beats Warren[/i]. EC would have the districts #1 seed and first round bye, and thats all that matters. Having the #1 seed last year let EC avoid Kirbyville in the first week, and EC ended up in the 3rd round. GO BUCS! [/quote] Actually, Anahuac played Kirbyville last year because they were the D1 seed - EC was outright district champs but was the first seed in Division 2.  Last year they were outright champs - this year, CO champs!!  Couldn't take care of business in Buna. I am pulling for EC in the playoffs though!!  Be careful, a bye isn't always a good thing.  I hope EC doesn't come out flat!  Good luck in the playoffs!!

Hardin will be a tough test for Anahuac defensively however Anahuac will prevail!! That being said, Hardin may have 4 yards rushing but passing, they will find their target.  I still say Wac by 21+

You are hoping against hope Warren pulls off an incredible upset against EC because mathematically, Buna is still alive.  :D [/quote] If Warren wins that wont do anything for buna.  Ec will still be [b]district champs[/b]  So yea....come on....I hope Warren gets a win purely so they get a w this year. [/quote] Rephrase please, Co-District Champs with Anahuac!!

[quote name="APanthers" post="862288" timestamp="1285929846"] Buc's by 7 [/quote] OK, so I just read on another thread where you said that Anahuac will win because "they will play hard for Coach Barbay."  Do you really not believe that Newton is going to play lights out for the same reason. . . .especially seeing that they are MUCH, MUCH closer to the situation?  My take on it: Watch out Bucs - the Eagles will be flying high tonight and player harder than ever!!

They're good as gold baby!! LOL ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

[quote name="cake" post="841092" timestamp="1283869641"] Does anyone have any suggestions on what they need to change, we have the atheletes but still on Friday Night someone is dropping the ball. [/quote] I am going to suggest this. . . .it has something to do with the AD being the trainer (not a coach) and with the success that basketball has,, the kids may not say it but it has something to do with it!!  They shut it down early if they don't have success and begin thinking about playing roundball.  Could be an influence from inside the team or outside on the streets.  Not sure about that but I do agree. . . .they have athletes and the ability to compete!

[quote name="OldSkool97" post="695488" timestamp="1257228948"] I think neither team wants to come out flat in the playoffs so they are going to have it next week in order to prevent that. They would probally rather come out flat against one another than in the playoffs. I could be wrong though just my take on it. [/quote] I think you may have a good point.  Look at Anahuac.  First game of the year (coming off of a long break), they lost.  Against EC, coming off of a bye, they lost.  So, the coaches are smart for eliminating the bye week prior to the playoffs so they have some momentum going in.  I am not sure how bye's have affected Buna but I am almost certain they don't want a week off before they play Newton.  Now let's look at the warmup perspective.  Buna and Anahuac both run offenses similar to Kirbyville and Newton, so I think it is smart that the coaches are using this as a warmup/tune up before playing these two teams in the playoffs.  Both Anahuac and Buna are underdogs in the playoffs but this may help.  We shall see!!

[quote name="THEFUTUREOFTHEGAME" post="695437" timestamp="1257223077"] Well congratulations! U made a highlight video facing 2 of the sorriest teams in SETX. Let me stand up and applaude. hmm our junior powder puff team could make a highlight video against them. Ha. Yall have any highlights against EC? hmmm  ;D [/quote] Actually, they have posted highlights from every game this year EXCEPT the ones they lost, for obvious reasons!!  Thanks for getting on here and bashing other teams/kids for their hard work though - I am sure Kountze and Warren love to read comments like that about themselves!! 

Dear hardin82 aka*blah blah This is what I heard. . . .blah, blah, blah in the past, blah blah blah my senior year, blah blah blah me me me. Who give's a damn? First of all, the people on this board representative of Anahuac have been very straight shooting simply predicting the game or talking about circumstances surrounding the game. uknowit2 and knows2much are not a part of Panther Nation so don't judge a school or community based on idiots with computers. Since you like talking about the past, look at bushpilot's track record - HE'S A REAL WINNER AND GREAT SUPPORTER OF THE HARDIN PROGRAM!! I am sure Anahuac wishes he was posting for them! Also, don't bring up stuff that happened in 2000 because believe it or not, it will not help you in 2009. That group was 9 years ago - absolutely no connection to the current program. AP has more pride than that. In the more recent years you have seen Panther kids on here talking smack and then getting their a$$ whipped 46-6 by whoever (I am sure Hardin beat them). The clan that roams Pantherland now simply speaks with their pads!! So feel free to tune your radio to 97.9 or read this board but I guarantee you that you will not see or hear AP football players talking smack. That being said, this is going to be a great game between two great teams. Both are high scoring machines and both have defenses geared to stop just about anyone. Both teams have injuries that have slowed them down. I hear that Vilamez is coming back. That will put a little momentum on the Hornets side. Anahuac has Albritton out but believe me, there are plenty of other weapons in that arsenal. I have seen Anahuac play twice this year and they are explosive on the ground and in the air!! Hardin will have a hard time stopping them. I have yet to see Hardin play but I know they are on a mission and are ready to play the Panthers. Since this one is being played in Anahuac and I feel that Anahuac is more prepared for a big game I am going to say they will win. Score: Anahuac 48 Hardin 12

I haven't talked to the coaches but my nephew says it is a season ending injury.

Are you serious?

At our school, we do not do spring football but we do incorporate spring training (weights, 7 on 7, lineman challenges, etc) to prepare our kids for summer basketball!! We strive to be the most competetive basketball school out there, so we use football as a gateway to incorporate "secret roundball training" into our athletics program without actually engaging in practicing basketball. For instance, we work on roll tackling (ie, grabbing a runner by his knees or lower leges and rolling like an aligator to force them to the ground). So what is the signifigance to this drill for football? NONE, in fact it is a strategy we use for when a basketball player from the other team tries to go coast to coast on us and we want to prevent the inevitable "slam dunk"!!

Mike_Honcho, Why would you copy something off of a website and post it to this forum after CoachTater has already given the information out? Maybe you are not smart enough but I know how to click on a link for information!! Thanks for wasting our times with another lame post. . .You need to get a life

Girls State - Corpus Christi Boys State - Abilene Any thoughts or comments on the upcoming meets? SE Texas will be well represented at both. Any teams have a chance to win it? How about locations? Good or bad?

First and foremost, I think that many of the SE Texas girls were cheated at this meet due to bad or biased judging. Think about it - how many girls from WB, BC, PAM, and PNG were red lighted because of depth when they were clearly low enough according to THSPA rules? It was hard to tell exactly what the judges were looking for. I am aware that sometimes judges want a little more depth, which is fine, as long as they are consistent and remain aware of the lifter situation. A girl from PNG was DQed for "dumping" the bar when she really just lost her grip. I watched her fall back to the mat with the bar but the judges kicked her out of the meet. A few lifters later, an Edna girl dumped the bar clearly and the judges simply looked at each other and shook their heads!! I even saw the Anahuac girl bomb in the squat because her knees were bent when the head judge gave the squat command. I think the call was bogus - I have never heard of it before!! As far as the regional director spot, it was up for election/vote this year as the spot becomes open every two years. No one stepped up to "run" against the current director nor was anyone nominated - he was automatically put back in within seconds. I would like to see judges from our area judging in OUR regional meet instead of ex-Palacios powerlifters calling the shots. I don't think that one judge was over 21 years old. Next year, be sure to contact the regional director with judges names from this area in order to have representation at the meet. I have already spoken to several that would be interested.

Tuesday Night . . . .Who wins this one?

Any updates?

WOW- is anyone else surprised by this?

;D ;D ;D this was actually the website headline when Lumberton was eliminated last week!
