Alto.


Recommended Posts

Alto does have an awesome program but the problem that these small schools run into against a big school is that they usually have some good athletes in the backfield that can stay away from another small schools strengths on defense by running the other way. Its tough for such a small school to have 5 big and talented lineman that can keep a bigger schools defensive players out of the backfield disrupting the offense. No disrespect but Alto could not hang with any decent average 4A school.

NED, BC (bay city) JT (cujo) should i go on?

Yes, please do go on because I still am not convinced.  Alto would be spread to thin against teams with more numbers and athletes just as talented.  Don't get me wrong, I think they proved last year that they had one of the most dominating teams in history...but there is a big difference between a powerhouse 1A team and a powerhouse 4A team.

You do not play the game on paper or the computer, you play it on the field.

Alto has good 1A talent when you start playing against larger schools you are going to run into the numbers game.

Most 1A players have to play on both sides of the ball and will be eventualy be worn down.

Alto could not compete with 3A or 4A schools.

OK guys, being an Alto fan, I know whats realistic and what's not.  NO, a 1a team could not hang with a 4a powerhouse, although I will say Alto had players last year that could have started at the 5a level.  These guys were that good.  I do think Alto could hang with the majority of 3a schools in the area, with the exception of the Liberty Eylaus, Gilmers, WOS, ect.  I saw Rusk, Mabank, and a few other 3a's last year, and I think Alto could have beaten all of them.  When Alto was 2a, they played the likes of Diboll, Kirbyville, Tatum, Center, and others regularly and won, sometimes in a blowout.  Alto had one of them teams last year that only comes around so often.  Alto had a tough passing attack last year that teams could not much up to with the size and speed.

I think Alto would have gone a long ways in the 2a playoffs had we not dropped.  I know you can't compare teams by scores, but East Chambers was 10-0 and had to fight to beat Hemphill in the 1st round and Alto blew Hemphill out of their home stadium 42-0 ( and it could have been a lot worse ).

I watched Alto play Hemphill last year and it was a mismatch. I am from Newton and I am sure glad we did not have to play them. They were that good. They could have hung with most 3A and a lot of 4A school. They were that good. I think they have all their defense back and boy can they hit. The Hemphill game could have easily been 54 to zip. Alto played their second team and it looked just as good as the first team. No one will beat them this year.

    • naw, maaaaybe 7, definitely not 8 deep.  today im avoiding sitting by #10s parents, had to move away yesterday.   "put my son back in jub, put my son back in"  and then crying on every little touch of someone.    lets ball out today ktz!    
    • Very close game until the 2nd half (mostly the 4th) when Orangefield came unraveled. Worse defensive effort I have seen out of the Bobcats in three years. This team has to get back on D and quit getting beat over the top when pressing. Offensively, non ball handlers continually turn it over and their shot selection is poor. Basic basketball, such as: defensive hustle, boxing out, and taking care of the basketball are the areas the Bobcats need to work on most. Whitmire will get them on point, but he shouldn't have to coach effort at the Varsity Level.  We'll be at McNeese this Friday night at 6pm.
    • I don’t benefit from it, that’s not my area.  But the average cost to imprison someone is around $15k per year (on average in the US) and capital cases cost somewhere between $1.5-$3M with over half being overturned or reduced to life in prison anyway.  These numbers may be inflated since the last report I read but I’m sure it would be on both sides and higher on the DP side if anything. So what’s the point?  We feel better because we got to return the favor on someone (hopefully) who committed a heinous crime?  And I don’t know I can say we have “complicated” it. Which appeal should we cut out?  Our justice system has a pecking order and we have higher courts for a reason. When we are about to impose the ultimate judgment, should we cut steps that other cases have to save a buck?  Or do we not pay for an indigent person’s experts at the trial court level because it’s too expensive? Or do we just lock them up and throw away the key (unless we later find out they weren’t actually guilty, in which case we have a key and a life we haven’t unjustly ended) and save a ton of money?  Seems to me to be an obvious solution but I’m more of a pragmatist.
    • 1 thing for certain. Coach Earned 3 more years to figure it out lol
