robanadana Posted September 27, 2017 Report Share Posted September 27, 2017 To answer everyone's questions, I was in Canada when the hurricane hit. Flight got cancelled and had to drive back from 230 miles north of Toronto. Like everyone, I came home to flooding and a refinery which had been shut down badly. Lots of hours to go around. I'm back now but don't intend on putting as much on the board this year. Too much going on at home. 2wedge, RoschonsBigBro, BMTSoulja1 and 3 others 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

biaplayer Posted September 27, 2017 Report Share Posted September 27, 2017 Welcome back Robanadana, Looks like the Pirates came out to play tonight. Congrats on first win, Central well im not sure what to think tonight, everyone was excited about new coach getting rid of Toby, well now I guess it is back to the drawing board, sounds like run game is nonexistent as well as defense, on a good note sounds like yall had success throwing the ball. hopefully there were no injuries time for a 5 day break and back to the drawing board.

No excuses, they are dealing with something unprecedented. They have 10 days now to work on some things. rhino1877 and AthleticSupporter - Jock 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is the only thing I didn't understand. I know you just can't abandon the running game but it was not producing while the passing game was. But we insisted on 1st down, with the Pirates CB's in man and no Safety help, to try to run. Putting us in 2nd and 3rd and long situations. Our first score was an 80 yard bomb, they couldn't run with us 1 on 1. Our next scoring drive was pretty much short and midrandge passes. After that, it seems like we went away from it.

Current staff is good. Toby was ok, but he seems to be in about the same Predicament in Killeen, so he probably would've have mirrored the same lack of production going on at Central now....

mytwocents-28 Posted September 27, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 27, 2017 Just seen the highlights and idk if it's central is slower or what but those two long runs the vidor runner basically outran some central defenders. Maybe vidor has a little speed this year.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Limping, the entire defense was limping by the end of the night. You can't run if you are limping. No excuse though, Vidor won that game fair and square...

It's a very good trait for a football team to have, but I do agree that the actual term "discipline" is misused a lot in reference to some teams. But regardless, discipline does make a difference, no matter what color the team is. AthleticSupporter - Jock and BMTSoulja1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bronco pride Posted September 27, 2017 Report Share Posted September 27, 2017 Actually Splendora was horribly undisciplined when they played Dayton. Penalties late hits sloppy play so it's not just a word reserved for predominantly black schools. To me WOS is extremely well disciplined on the football field and it shows with their success. To me the word just speaks to the play and coaching not the ethnicity of the team. mytwocents-28 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prepballfan Posted September 27, 2017 Report Share Posted September 27, 2017 This was a tough game for me to choose who I was pulling for. Both teams families and schools were devastated. I have prayed a bunch for both of these schools and kiddos. SO I guess I will say congrats Vidor and keep your chins up Central. The whole district is pulling for both of you guys to get through this storm and have some normalcy back in your lives. dj, Raiders94, Hagar and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our run defense is pretty stout this year but, as always, we're succeptable to the long ball. Your QB has a good arm and the Jags will come around. This Harvey stuff has been hard on all of our kids.

Vidor is played in the trenches with your nose in the dirt and plowing ground on the d-line, making piles and keeping 0-lineman and blocking backs off the linebackers and safeties playing the run. You try to whip blocks high like other offenses, and you get beat, period. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
