2019 FOOTBALL TEAM PREVIEWS

BRIDGE CITY CARDINALS

2018 Record: 2-8 Overall, 1-4 District

5th Place in 11-4A-I

 

The 2018 season was another injury plagued campaign for the Bridge City Cardinals and those injuries were too much to overcome as the Cardinals limped to a 2-8 record.  Head Coach Allen DeShazo is counting on the fact that several youngsters were forced into starting roles (5 starters on offense and 8 starters on defense return) will bring experience in 2019 and allow the Cardinals to rebound from last season.

 

Head Coach:  Allen DeShazo

Assistant Coaches:  Chris Lee (Offensive Coordinator), Rick Abraham (Defensive Coordinator), Jimmy Hallman (Offensive Line), Joe Blanda (Running Backs), Randall Robertson (Wide Receivers), Shea Landry (Outside Linebackers), Paul Landry (Defensive Line), Lance Robertson (Defensive Backs)

Offense:

Five starters return to the Bridge City multiple-I offense in 2019.  Taking over the reigns to the offense will be sophomore quarterback Ethan Oceguera.  Senior fullback Andy Lara (1st team all-district) and senior running back Rylan Ply (2nd team all-district) will shoulder much of the rushing load for the Cardinals.  Bridge City does bring back some experience in its receiver group as junior wide out Blake Moore and wide out Austin Richardson will be joined by sophomore tight end J.T. Fielder.  Returning lineman Trent Roccaforte will lead an offensive line which will also include Braydon Little.

Defense:

Eight starters return to the Bridge City 3-4 defense in 2019.  Returning lineman Kevin Ross will lead a line which will also feature Mark Jones.  The Cardinals will be particularly strong at linebackers Garrett Ashworth and Dorian Pruitt will be joined by outside linebackers Ply and senior Jackson Tims.  Richardson, Moore and Jake Potter will be joined by sophomore Deegan King in patrolling the Cardinal secondary.

Special Teams:

Junior Oscar Carranza will do the place kicking for Bridge City while Oceguera will do the punting.  Ply and King will be the primary kick returners.

Schedule:

Aug. 30 - Diboll, 7:30 pm

Sept. 6 - Jasper, 7:30 pm

Sept. 13 - at Anahuac, 7:30 pm

Sept. 19 - at Silsbee, 7:30 pm

Hmmmmm.... 

Ply and Lara at RB I like.... Really need a lot from our O-line to get things moving.  We played STJFL with Oceguera (as qb way back then) and it'll be interesting to see how he's progressed.

I'm really out of touch with the program these days.

Multiple I offense. They got rid of the wing T

You're  right.  Lara is a bowling ball and hard to bring down.  Ply seems more like the one with wheels.  Nice pieces  there.  If that O line shows up, maybe the Cards  can get in the playoffs...

I'm thinking Splendora, Huffman, and Lumberton should finish 1-3 in some order.  It would have LCM, BC, and Livingston fighting for that fourth playoff spot in that order.

That's on paper, anyways.

You read Dave Campbell too much. I believe we will be 2nd or better. As long as our 3 year starting QB doesn’t get hurt we will be fine. I believe the back up will be a good one also. 4 of our receivers will be back they made all district last year. It’s gonna be hard for me to believe that anyone in our district will be able to cover  everyone one of them. Teams will have to pressure the quarter back. Our rushing attack was lacking last year that will have to improve. Our defense gave up least points during district. We have 7 starters on both sides of the ball. Splendora and Huffman should be the only challenges for LCM during district.

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

      That should tell everyone something pretty clearly. Does anyone really think BH is recruiting elementary kids, to get them to transfer in Jr. high? Seriously? Here is the "dirty little secret" about BH: Most people move to the district for a quality living environment to raise their young family, and benefit from the outstanding acedemics at BH. Even If all athlectics suddenly disappeared from BH, people would still want their kids in the district. If thats not enough to convince anyone, and BH really was determined to recruit, first step would be to have open enrollemnt. It is closed.        Yes, I get it, no one ever wants to give BH the benefit of the doubt on anything. Some of the accusations are beyond ridiculous though. This paranoia the BH critics are afflicted with is not just sad, its flat out laughable.

      Opting is always an option. Are they considering any BC assistants? Highly qualified after that season they put up.

      Be that as it may, only time will tell. Hide and watch. Don’t be surprised if the next HC hire uses his own recipe. That happens more than not historically. I am not arguing the point that Hooks & CT had a winning combination that could’ve been carried over. I’m saying that finding someone to do that is not going to be as easy as one might think. Tell me again why Saban’s replacement, who even has Saban’s assistance if he wants it, just lost another game to an unranked team and has taken the Tide out of playoff contention? Why wouldn’t he just follow the success of possibly the greatest college football coach ever lived?

      We've acknowledged having 2 HOF coaches hasn't been like most other schools. So why everyone jumps to the conclusion it wouldn't work here is beyond my comprehension. I see it carry over with these other hires. Gilmer, Aledo, North Shore, Austin Westlake. Next man up that continues the system in place has instant success. Matter fact there was 2 rookie HC that won the state championship the same year we handed over the keys. Same book. Same recipe. Better ingredients.
