Bronco94 Posted July 13, 2017 Report Posted July 13, 2017 In the Beaumont area, I know we got some good backs out west too. But I liked the post. Quote
eagleswoodville#1 Posted July 13, 2017 Report Posted July 13, 2017 No Zack Martin from Woodville?? That's odd....unless they're highlighting the seniors? But other than that, I thought it was a very good list. Quote
Bronco94 Posted July 13, 2017 Report Posted July 13, 2017 21-5a is loaded with good RB's as well. I would like to see a list of both areas to compare. Any takers, 21-5a vs. 22-5a RB's. Quote

Any takers, 21-5a vs. 22-5a RB's. Here is why you won't ever see the names of 21-5A players on lists such as these. They are in what I call the "media no man's land." Too far west for the Beaumont area media to cover, too far east for the Houston media to care. You see, the Hearst papers (the Enterprise and the Chronicle) have split coverage in Southeast Texas (a reason why you no longer see Beaumont area schools followed in Chronicle articles). That line is right around Anahuac. DannyShapiroBE, BlackShirts5, Alpha Wolf and 1 other 4 Quote

That line is right around Anahuac. Very true. Craig Williams is 3 star recruit I believe and if he is healthy is by far the best back in our district. He has had issues the last 2 years staying on the field but is blazing fast. Quote
CardinalBacker Posted July 13, 2017 Report Posted July 13, 2017 Andy Lara from BC will belong on this list before the season is out. He's going to excel in our system. He'll be regarded as highly as Draper before the season is done. Quote

BMTSoulja1 Posted July 13, 2017 Report Posted July 13, 2017 I'm honestly looking for Central's Foster, PA Memorial's Hines, and Silsbee's Thomas to have exceptional seasons. Hines, well, he's Hines. Foster had a great Sophmore season and last year, Moreaux shined. Silsbee, it was the same situation, Thomas had an exceptional skinnier campaign, but had to take a backseat to Tyler. I also see LC-M's Winters doing great things. I also hear there a 2 headed monster at West Brook.... CardinalBacker 1 Quote

Thomas shined at linebacker last year. Is there anybody in particular that will be filling his spot at lb? We moved Trahan to qb from lb last year... we missed him on the defensive side. Quote
Yeoj Posted July 14, 2017 Report Posted July 14, 2017 By the end of the season, James Jones name will be at the top of this list. Quote

I hate that... it always seems to me that the kids who play both ways have trouble finishing games strong, or making through the season uninjured. He'll do great no matter where he lines up.

Was an animal starting at qb and lb and was an animal at both positions and he got stronger as the game went on. I think Thomas will follow suit this year.... L-Train11 1 Quote
