4 years ago this thread would have been 10 pages long.  Oh well. I would like to see Santee along with a few others go both ways Friday. Maybe cut back on his carries and let him and a few other take out some frustration on defense. I know a lot of people think playing both ways is to much but it used to be a regular accurance even on our best teams. Heck I watched Cedar Park play in a state championship game with their starting rb who was also their starting lb. Just ask Crosby fans about him. He did it all year long. Guess what I'm saying is play your talent because even some high enrollment schools do it so we surely can.

Montana Quirante at Vidor played MLB and QB in the Slot T.  Won the Willie Ray Smith Award (legendary coach at all black Charlton-Pollard and Bubba & Toby Smiths father) for offensive and defensive player of the year.  Only one to do so.  So yes, some kids can still go both ways.  And you're right, used to be a regular occurrence.

This game has become one I look forward to.  Throw out records when Crosby and Dayton play.  I equate it to many of the PNG vs Nederland matchups.  It'll be a slobber-knocker, and almost always well worth the price of admission.  Hope this years game follows the pattern.

Things I would like to see tonight. Scrap the rugby punt and just kick the ball. Anything close to the 50yd and in don't punt on 4th down and anything less than 2yds. Field position won't mean squat in this game. Work the ball deep down the middle of the field. Our receivers have good hands but are small so don't expect big plays side line to side line. Once you get a hand on them that's pretty much it. Certain kids need to play both ways. This is the grand daddy of them all. What a minute that's the Rose Bowl but this game is close enough. Defensively hope we can cause a few turnovers and make them earn their yds. I know that's asking a lot with a burner like Williams but hey this is my post so oh well. Last but not least save travels to all fans, players and coaches. I hope both teams play a great injury free game and of course GO BRONCOS!

If you receivers are small it should be a good match up.  Our corners and safeties are young and small. That's the reason we give up 30 points per game.

I know he uses logic in pick'ems, but he always picks against Crosby in the threads to agrivate the Crosby fans.  

Lol. Yeah I don't know if he has y'all in pick ems it was my attempt at humor. I have noticed he picks against y'all a lot. Man Astros game at 7, raining and not a very good record for ole Dayton. I hope the kids have a good crowd to play for tonight.

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

      This is good info. It doesn’t really break out for student athletes though. LP & (I think) DP are open enrollment because of the way the towns intertwine. That’s the way it’s been for many years anyway. I assume it still is that way. The kids have a choice after Jr. High to go to either High School because LPISD has elementary schools in DP. As I recall, DP didn’t want to build out more (Robin Hood issues), and so DPISD & LPISD came to an arrangement because LPISD is one of the highest givers to Robin Hood in the state, and it helped both keep more funds in district. Of course, LPISD is open to all. Not just DP, and LPISD is rated well. So, I assume they have kids from elsewhere also. Not positive though. They used to have a lot because—for decades—DeWalt was the only dedicated public school in the GHA that specifically catered to special needs kids. Families from all over enrolled. But, they didn’t participate in extracurricular activities like sports. So, LP’s total enrollment made them 6A. But, they were really a 5A school all along for sports program sake. This is all as best as I can recall from when I was more involved in school issues. I’m sure a lot has changed since then. My kids have been out for 20 years.

      Our playoff rivalry. They hold a 6-5 edge in the series. I think Newton continues the win streak in a hard fought contest. What say y’all?

      Has Elmo gotten his aggy premature extension yet?  Pay him already because you guys were exactly right - he really does “get you.” 😂🤣

      It’s been awhile, but I seem to remember 5 D starters out & 2 O starters out (OL). A big difference is that Simon wasn’t involved yet. He’s totally changed LP’s rushing attack from last year as a bruising, explosive addition to Barnes, Sandolph & Bright. Last year—and early this season—LP was missing that element. Now, Coach Berneathy is not making talented players wait like many other coaches & even his predecessors at LP. If the kid can produce at the varsity level, they’re moved up. And man, has Simon produced! Over 1200 yards & 20 TD’s in less than a full season so far! It’s allowed LP to alternate RB’s where Barnes doesn’t take all the pounding. Barnes and Sandolph are also able to split out as receivers as desired to add threats that weren’t really an option last year. The PNG/LP game was a full-on tilt & good for both squads. I remember Gary Joseph in the end zone giving his son pointers as an extra set of eyes since he’d had experience with LP in past PO matchups. That was a good game. The score wasn’t really indicative of the game. Not sure anyone felt it was over until the final whistle! Good luck to y’all in Cajun Country. Bring back a win for SE Texas. (Yes. La Porte is still SETX. Ha!)
