hattie Posted October 12, 2017 Report Posted October 12, 2017 Newton is looking for several 2018 games. If you are interested please contact Coach Johnston @ 409-420-6600 ext. 2237 Quote
Alpha Wolf Posted October 12, 2017 Report Posted October 12, 2017 How are they already looking for games for next year when they don't know where they will fall in the new alignment, who will be in district with them and whether it will be a 6 or 8 team district? Quote
bronco pride Posted October 12, 2017 Report Posted October 12, 2017 I would like too see Dayton play Newton. Quote
EaglesFootball Posted October 12, 2017 Report Posted October 12, 2017 He is probably just trying to get a head start on games, its hard for Newton to get games to the earlier you start looking the better. A lot of teams already have a scheduled together more than you think do anyway. Alpha Wolf 1 Quote

I am pretty sure that teams that don't get a tentative schedule in place before realignment end up scrambling to get opponents to play them in the slots they need filled. That's how you get teams traveling an absurd distance to play one another or not having a full schedule. I bet there won't be a ton of 5A or 4A teams lining up to get their butt kicked by a 3A team. Doesn't really do wonders for the prospect of keeping your job as a coach. Quote

WOSgrad Posted October 12, 2017 Report Posted October 12, 2017 A lot of folks have to get a huge start on this as some schools have difficulty finding schools that will play them. Quote

eagleswoodville#1 Posted October 12, 2017 Report Posted October 12, 2017 I wouldn't mind seeing Woodville and Newton play. Newton would obviously be the favorite to win, but I think it would be a more competitive game than most people think. About a week ago 1 Quote

fishcat Posted October 13, 2017 Report Posted October 13, 2017 My understanding it is in the books Quote
rykerx144 Posted October 13, 2017 Report Posted October 13, 2017 Things can change but both have agreed and penciled it in Quote
WOSgrad Posted October 13, 2017 Report Posted October 13, 2017 That is good to hear. Both the Eagles and the Mustangs have problems finding opponents so when they can get together, it is a great game that makes both teams better in the long run. OleMoe 1 Quote
fishcat Posted October 13, 2017 Report Posted October 13, 2017 It's rumored Jasper might play wos next year. Hope so! Quote

I still think Newton finds their way on the schedule. Would probably benefit more from playing them then pretty much every team other than Nederland . Quote

Newton vs WOS would be more beneficial to each other (as far as game preparation) than most of the other schools the 2 of them usually play pre-season. And I mean sad that WOS may have to play a 3A school to get a competitive game. Quote

It's all fun and games until you lose a key player or two for the year in what would later be called a "meaningless" pre-season game against a tough school. Quote

I guess so if you are content with being average and not getting any better!!!!!! I'm just saying... Everybody is gung-ho about playing tough competition in non-district and getting better right up until the point at which they lose a couple of key players to injury before district. Then everybody is like "we would be going to state but the stupid coach keeps scheduling teams that we have no chance of beating, and now we're missing __________, ____________, and ____________.... those kids will probably not even get to play college ball now. And for what? So that the coach beats a few good schools and can move on to a better job?" I've seen it all before. Quote
NewtonNation Posted October 18, 2017 Report Posted October 18, 2017 Last time I checked, injuries can happen against any opponent. We lost one of our best receivers last year in a scrimmage. Also I think y'all lost one of y'alls players in practice. Quote
Tigerfan24 Posted October 18, 2017 Report Posted October 18, 2017 Newton is good, but could not play with WOS Quote
