I didn't see the halftime end zone meet up, but I heard that the DC McDaniel and Coach J. were there talking at the end of the 1st half. McD was in the press box rather than sideline for the first few games. I hadn't heard of Gary J. being there until your post.
Watching video on La vega, and they are big up front and have a fast running back. My opinion we should stop the run and force them to throw the ball. Also Silsbee run game has not been great la vega runs a 4-3 and is aggressive. I would just focus on throwing the ball.
