The reason this is the ONLy site worth posting on

So, after a few posts in the PNG-Vidor thread, I decided I wanted a few answers I had in my head, so I head on to the OFFICIAL site of my school. Now, honestly, I have not been on it in over a year, I made a post several years back, about a running back that was not listed on the records, from the 97 season. I was greeted with a rude PM, stating keep my comments to myself. SO that was the end of me on the RAH RAH site. However anyone that knows the ringleader of the site, might let him know to get a few things correct. A nice little cover article about legendary QBs.... Is wrong...

 

So rant over. I was thinking who might be the winningest QB in PNG history. Since I'm only 43, The glory days where at the tail end of my birth. But, they have incorrect info.

Dustin Long started 3 years. Yep, all 3. Look it up. I can remember the crying of a coaches son starting as a sophomore. Call my brother if you need some crow soup. So, as a starter he won 30 games. 1 DC, 2-1 Vs Nederland and a heartbreaking loss against WOS. Also was a State Championship runner up. And a Willie Ray... Aggie

Shug has the chance to match those numbers if the season turns around. he has over 20 (23) wins, is 1-1 against Nederland and has 2 DC to his name. And a Willie Ray. Longhorn

My question is how long did Ethridge start at QB? Is he the winningest in the history, I honestly do not know that answer. Anyone feel free to help me out. Red Raider.

You are so right because everything on this site is 100% accurate

I played against  couple of good running backs in the 90’s what was that rb name? In 1997 I believe png missed the playoffs. Also long was good Qb 

Elkins. He is actually the guy a was talking about. He was the first back over 1000 since Ron. Capadona was the year before him.

just curious, are you basing this off wins and stats?? i hate to play the what if game, BUT imo, put shug against teams pn-g played back then, you might have a different outcome...to be honest, he might be better due to like someone said, o-line and team was better. now with long on this version, as much as i hate tom brady, that's what long is/was to png. i think he would make the wr's better....also shug does not have out right DC's...just saying.

    • 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!)
