The rain held off long enough for us to host Kirbyville in a scrimmage. I thought that our defense looked solid.  Our offense looked better than they did last week. If my count was correct, BC scored 4 times and Kirbyville didn't score. 

Things got a little chippy late in the "game," which is a little surprising for a scrimmage. The kids from Kirbyville never gave up... it just seems like the transition to the triple option is proving a little difficult for the Wildcats. 

Can anybody from K-ville tell me how y'all felt about the scrimmage, specifically how a Kirbyville fan would grade their progress so far? I know that the recent games (and scrimmage last year) have been competitive, even if BC came out on top. This year didn't seem very competitive, and I don't think it'd because we're that awesome.

That's an offense that takes longer than a month to even half way run correctly. Seems like BC front line had wider splits and get down field blocking something Kirbyville isn't doing. I thought our defense played ok. Honestly I hate the new offense and we are just not running it real well. We won't be competitive offensively until we can run it plain and simple ( that may be next year). BC had some speed and liked to come up and hit you defensively. Taking nothing away from them but when you know where we are going every play it makes things easier playing defense. We can only get better ( I hope) but I really feel like this will be a long year for us. That #14 could pick them up and put them down with the best, a real burner.

Yeah... I'm not gonna lie. I felt bad for the K-ville kids last night. With all of the drama over the vice principal, coach Neece and much of his staff leaving, and a whole new scheme, it has to have been a rough few months. I wondered if a lot of kids had dropped out of the program. 

I thought the little scuffle was the best part of the evening for you guys... sometimes you just gotta let 'em know that you're not going down without a fight.

I want to say about 60 -70 kids came out.

He's a menace. Lol.  

Honestly, it looks like somebody's white hand (his) is on the BC player's throat.

I'm certain that the picture doesn't actually represent what was occurring, but that looks bad.  

 

Lord knows that I don't think a lot of Tommy Wallis, but from my view of things, he appears he was trying to be a peacemaker in this situation and was trying to separate a Cardinal and a Wildcat.  That hand looks to be one of a Kirbyville player that the BC player is involved with (you can see the Wildcat's black helmet over the left shoulder of the ref closest to the camera).  Of course, this is a still which doesn't reveal everything.

But given the way Coach DuBois feels about his kids, if he felt this was an act of aggression on Dr. Wallis' part, we would have heard something to that effect by now by BC administration by now.

    • naw, maaaaybe 7, definitely not 8 deep.  today im avoiding sitting by #10s parents, had to move away yesterday.   "put my son back in jub, put my son back in"  and then crying on every little touch of someone.    lets ball out today ktz!    
    • Very close game until the 2nd half (mostly the 4th) when Orangefield came unraveled. Worse defensive effort I have seen out of the Bobcats in three years. This team has to get back on D and quit getting beat over the top when pressing. Offensively, non ball handlers continually turn it over and their shot selection is poor. Basic basketball, such as: defensive hustle, boxing out, and taking care of the basketball are the areas the Bobcats need to work on most. Whitmire will get them on point, but he shouldn't have to coach effort at the Varsity Level.  We'll be at McNeese this Friday night at 6pm.
    • I don’t benefit from it, that’s not my area.  But the average cost to imprison someone is around $15k per year (on average in the US) and capital cases cost somewhere between $1.5-$3M with over half being overturned or reduced to life in prison anyway.  These numbers may be inflated since the last report I read but I’m sure it would be on both sides and higher on the DP side if anything. So what’s the point?  We feel better because we got to return the favor on someone (hopefully) who committed a heinous crime?  And I don’t know I can say we have “complicated” it. Which appeal should we cut out?  Our justice system has a pecking order and we have higher courts for a reason. When we are about to impose the ultimate judgment, should we cut steps that other cases have to save a buck?  Or do we not pay for an indigent person’s experts at the trial court level because it’s too expensive? Or do we just lock them up and throw away the key (unless we later find out they weren’t actually guilty, in which case we have a key and a life we haven’t unjustly ended) and save a ton of money?  Seems to me to be an obvious solution but I’m more of a pragmatist.
    • 1 thing for certain. Coach Earned 3 more years to figure it out lol
