4A D2 Region 3

They just put the most dominate Team in the State in their Division (4AD1), who some say might could win a Div above (5AD2), and dropped them into a lower Div (4AD2).  Carthage’s second & third strings may get more playing time than the starters.   Going to be like using a .410 to kill a roach.  Like using an Air-To-Ground middle to kill an Iranian General.  Like using a nuke to take out a machine gun nest.

Ah, such colorful metaphors..  😂🤣😂🤣😂

And If Carthage loses, I’m going to be labeled an idiot, LOL.  NP, I’ve been labeled worse.  😂

They were Big Daddy in DI.

Nothing changing. Lol.

Carthage,Jasper, Rusk, Center,Shepherd, and my favorite Madisonville (😲) makes up the new District 10 in 4ADII.

I don't remember ever playing Madisonville. Do you? Should be an interesting district...

Take the strongest armed guy you know outside and have him throw a rock up in the air. Guess what, it always comes down. That's not Maybe , but what Will happen to Carthage. Just ask Gilmer, La Marque, Seally, Stephenville, Odessa P., Chapel Hill,  Celina, Austin Reagan, Dallas Carter, Bay City, to name a few?  

What goes up must come down. Hows that for a colorful metaphor. 😀

Oh, no doubt.  But as long as Surratt is there, they’ll be a force.

Yes that is true.

Don't know how many times I have told people that they can't make me believe that prior to 12 years ago before Scott arrived that there in Carthage the talented and skilled young men to win with were not there. Yet they had only been  to state final in the early 90s and didn't win. All of a sudden it's 7 out of 11 years with rings. 

Yep, when talent is pretty equal, superior coaching makes champions.

Great story. Carthage only loss that year was to Patrick Mahomes of whitehouse. And I must say, WOS losing to them in 2013 playoffs showed the level we needed to reach state. Which we did the next 4 years, partially because Carthage was out of the way. If we would have played them during that run, who knows what would have happened. That was a special group of kids.

    • 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
