^ So you want LU to end up like ull or ulm or unt or Texas state or nmsu or etc....because that's what will happen. You can't even compete with fcs schools and you want to go play with the big schools? Are you sure you're not aggy? Cuz you sound aggy.

Ull was at a bowl game this year and should have won. So yeah that's a great comparison I want LU to be like them. We have Div 1 athletes all over SETX that go to Texas, Baylor, A&M, Houston, SMU and etc and what do 90% of them do sit the bench and never hear about them again. What if LU was D1 and they stayed home with the combination of the athletes in Houston we get, and if LU had a great coach that could recruit Central and DFW we could easily compete in football. We already beat great D1 teams in baseball yearly. And Tic is working his magic in Basketball. But then we have Whoopi, UTfanatic and aboutaweekago having the typical SETX mindset settling for mediocre and scared to get out there comfort zone. SMH. I bet y'all believe in everyone get a trophy too huh? Lmao.

^ Check ncaa fbs bylaw 20.9.9.1 for clarification. A school must average at least 15k for a rolling 2 years. LU has averaged about 9k over the past two years. Also, it's gonna be hard to average that when your stadium only holds about 16k. ULLs stadium holds 37k.

You are right, but Lamar has plans to upgrade the facility up to 28k if need be. But who wants to see these small schools come in that I'm sure you never heard of or UNT, ULL or maybe one day another Baylor come to Beaumont. Woodward biggest problem was he didn't sign enough local talent. He finally started and over the past 3 years attendance average rose. Woodward put some great talent together and left the program in great shape for someone to come in and succeed right away.

      Waco La Vega (42) vs West Orange-Stark (20) - FINAL

      By WOSdrummer99 · Posted

      Well Mustang fans it's time for my annual end of season rant. I've had so much company up here on the soapbox that I may have to start charging rent. After 3 years I don't think anything needs to be said. We all know what's wrong. We all know why. So what's the decision at the next board meeting? IMO, there's been enough imaginary success for the board to rubber stamp the Superintendent's vision for our future student athletes. #make every second count Due to soft scheduling and a weaker than normal district. The luck of knocking off 2 ranked opponents early when they were not healthy or still trying to figure it out. Also led to a premature ranking and a hollow DCTF weekly award. The 2 late season losses vs ranked teams proves what we know has been the biggest problem.  Football 19-15 .559 Baseball 9-35 .205 Basketball 19-35 .352 GBB 11-29 .275 Softball 1-22 .043 Volleyball 0-38 .000 Overall 59-174 .253   For anyone living in the district, I ask that you contact you're elected board members publicly and privately. Don't let them think this is exceptable. Be the solution to the equation. Not the divisor. This starts at the top and falls heavily upon those walking the halls. They deserve better.

      Barbers Hill (28) vs La Porte (55) - FINAL

      Sounds like a good idea, and something’s been needed for a long time. I know—where my kids & grandkids live now (DFW area)—schools are like revolving doors for athletic purposes. I don’t think the DPISD & LPISD option enrollment are anywhere like that. I assume it’s pretty above board since it was an arrangement apparently agreed to also by the state. I do know some kids that went to LPISD elementary schools in DP chose to go to DPHS because of the district rating. (Of course, at the time, DPISD and DP in general wasn’t very racially mixed like La Porte.) LPISD has a high number of kids on assistance programs compared to DP. Say what you will, it does make it more difficult for educational purposes and scores can reflect as much. LPISD is still rated high even with that challenge. Some of the kids that chose DPHS were very solid athletes that I’m sure LP would love to have had attend LPHS. Of course, part of the big rivalry between DP & LP has always been because DP ‘looked down’ on LP even though we worked side-by-side. Now that Shell DP refinery has been sold to PEMEX, DP is changing. Some aren’t happy about it. Some of us in LP are kinda tickled about it after the history.
