How Would You Rate SE Texas Football With Other Parts Of The State

Talent and support is one of the best. One problem now days compared to the 80's and 90's is other areas of the State (schools) are growing and we really are not. This shows in the playoffs, especially the last few years.

With 16 billion dollars of new plants and plant expansions in SETX over the next 48 months, it will generate 15,000 new jobs and bring in 60,000 to 80,000 new residence. All schools in the  Setx area will grow a little and possibly get some move in athletes.

I have a hard time believing that 15k construction workers (if there are that many) are going to bring in up to 80k new residents. Most construction workers do not migrate with their families to a new job. They come from either aliens or coastal states and drive home on the weekends or a few times a year. There may be some increase in students but I think if anything, the number will be very small and have no impact on the local schools.

also, there will be suppliers and other business that will move in to support this expansion. Anyway if we on get a permanent resident move in of 15,000 over the next 4 years that's better being stagnant like we have been for the last 50 years. It can only help.

    • 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
