I hope he doesn't but if the kid that I was told might be leaving BU and transferring to LC-M does so, you might be able to push for that district title.  I'll try to get a concrete answer before I release anymore information...

The freshman team at BC in 16 went undefeated in district, if not the season.... I can’t remember. That group will be seniors this year. 

I have no such expectations for this fall. 

I think BC will still play us hard, if we have no injuries we should make the playoffs lol

I think Splendora will be district champion most likely, but I honestly couldn't tell you who will take 2nd, 3rd, or 4th. The teams are so close together when it comes to talent. I wouldn't be surprised of any one of these teams shocks Splendora, or we see a co-champ situation. The 3 schools: LCM, Lumberton, and Huffman will be interesting to follow from week to week. I'm excited to see how it all shakes out!

Wow.  Interesting.   Well, they did run a smashmouth style of offense when they were dominant in 2008 and 2009...

That’s always what’s worked for us, running the ball. Back then we were in two back sets, I formation or split back. Hopefully the slot t will trick some people and we can get some holes opened up. Seems to work pretty good in 4A if executed correctly.

It works awesome if you have good clock management and a decent defense.  

It also helps if your district opponents only see it when they play you.  Between BC, Lum and possibly LiCk'eM running some form of it, there's not gonna be a lot of novelty in running it later in District play.  The flip side is that your defense will suffer when facing a passing attack because the only time that they defend a decent passing attack is on Friday nights.  Some of that can be made up with sheer athleticism in the secondary, but I don't think Lum has those kind of horses in the stable.  

We had a lot of success under Dubois with a decent group of kids using the slot T.  We beat talented teams like Silsbee and Center and bigger schools like Huffman, LiCk'eM, etc... It's a great equalizer against bigger/more talented kids if utilized correctly.  I think a slot T with a mixed in passing attack like Pleasant Grove ran against a much better WOS team in '17 could hurt a lot of feelings.  I know we hurt our fair share without (sorry Tiger fans) a passing threat.  

If I'm not mistaken, Babin was a Slot T guy before he took the job in Lumberton.  Getting the system installed and utilized correctly is another huge key.  The other thing is that you MUST have disciplined fat kids if you want to succeed.  You're not gonna be very successful with a 175 lb center, no offense.

Question is how long does it actually take to figure out that it's not gonna work! Try something new! Lumberton is not built for it never was and never will be. There is no SCRAP in those kids

You gotta be that same guy that didnt let up off babin and those Lumb kids last year lol

Your correct it does help when no see the offense on a regularly bases. We run the wing t in jr high to Jv. Then varsity gets to run the spread offense.

And let's not forget what Liberty Hill did to Cartage in the state Championship running the Slot-T.  If done right, it's formidable!

This is something new. And what do you suggest we run? Let me guess, spread offense? 5 wide?

That’s very good  question. We never develop a quarter back. Our OC is wing t guy. That’s the system our HC has us running. I’m not true fan of it. I’m hoping when everyone retires and the new guy comes in he would change that.

    • This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up One more reason why democrats should never be in charge of anything. From the article: The Los Angeles City Council voted unanimously last week to become a "sanctuary city," categorically withholding any municipal assistance to federal immigration authorities despite a bevy of illegal immigrants arrested there for violent crimes and even violence against children this year.  The 13-0 vote last Tuesday comes weeks after President-elect Donald Trump's ballot-box victory and in the same year that dozens of illegal immigrants were picked up by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s (ICE) Enforcement and Removal Operations (ERO) officers in the L.A. metro area for murder, homicide and assault against children.  So far this year, Los Angeles ERO has arrested 1,263 illegal immigrants in the metro area so far this year, and 715 of them had criminal convictions, according to ICE data. The agency gathered 19,726 noncitizens between 2021 and 2024, and 7,255 of them, about 36%, had prior criminal convictions. That includes 26 illegal immigrants with pending charges or convictions for murder, homicide and assault against children who were arrested in the Los Angeles area during a nationwide operation from Jan. 16-28, ICE said.
    • Final Wells                 76 Corrigan           37
    • Take a look at this chart.  It shows how many kids per year transfer outside of the District WHILE LIVING IN GCCISD DISTRICT.  They reside within GCCISD, but attend school outside of it.  These numbers are straight from TEA. “TEA maintains data on students living in Goose Creek CISD who attend other public schools”, So we’re not even talking about kids whose families move or who use MeeMaw’s address.  That’s 100+ per year who still live in GCCISD and hitch a ride out to BHISD and back each day.  A lot of cars in that car rider line out of Baytown.  You think at least 10% of them aren’t athletes?  Maybe more like 20%?  C’mon, man, it’s plain to see and like I’ve been telling other folks ALL the successful programs do it.  It’s just gonna get a LITTLE harder to do it after 8/1/25, that’s all.  Won’t stop it, might not even slow it down much, but it’s gonna affect things a bit.
    • I forgot basketball is Division 1 and 2 now. So BH may have a chance 
    • BHISD isn’t all Riceland, there’s plenty of cheaper houses, trailer parks, RV Parks, etc and I hear there’s Apartment Complexes going in soon.  Also, you don’t even have to move there as long as you’ve got a MeeMaw or Auntie in BHISD zone, you just sign an affidavit that your kid is living with MeeMaw or Auntie and they’re in.  Don’t take my word for it, I already posted GCCISDs numbers showing twice as many GCCISD kids are transferring to BHISD than to the other surrounding Districts, 100+ per year.  If only 10% of those are for athletic purposes that’s 10 athletes a year minimum and I’m willing to bet it’s a little higher.   What’s also true and the point I was trying to make there is that as Riceland fills up it’s definitely going to change BHISD.  Those homes start at $500k and run up past $1M.  Gonna be a lot less “Country” and a lot more White Collar.
