Was that back in the Rick Colbert days or farther back than that? He was lightning fast and a great athlete but not necessarily a good QB for that type of offense.

Yes.  They had an undefeated team throughout junior high and freshman year and looked to be like a really good team.  Brought in a spread/west coast style offense for 03-04 and it completely messed up the slot t timing those kids were used to.  Rick Culbert went on to get a scholarship to Arkansas and played one season.  Sean O'Bannion, another speedster, now does some coaching for the pirates.  You're right though; Rick was fast.  Saw him clocked at low 4.4 range many times, along with Brock Sherrod, and Sean.  I seem to remember Rick running a 4.37 once.  FLYING.

It’s Sunday now and I believe the shock is beginning to wear off! I’m starting to get feeling back. Church, then Cowboys, then watch a lil Lindale film. 

When we played them in the playoffs last year they had a big D1 RB who was a load and a tall D1 DE that they would bring in at WR to throw him the jump ball. I believe those guys are gone but they still have their QB who is really good and a couple of nice receivers from last years team. Their offense was a multiple set, balanced attack.

Cowboys better wake up in hurry…

Won’t be long and Vidor will be back in 5A. I can see Vidor and Lumberton taking Crosby’s and Barber Hills spot when those 2 move up a classification. 

What makes you think Vidor will be back in 5A… just curious

Vidor & Lumberton should both be good for the next 2 yrs! 

Oh they’re good for sure for the next two years… and honestly I don’t see Vidor moving up beyond that in any near future.    I was just curious what made them think Vidor would be moving up… there is no evidence to suggest that will happen…Lumberton is growing so I could see them moving up sooner or later

All our growth is in the younger age. New subdivisions are younger couples with young kids. Haven’t hit the high school yet.

Watch their tacking on defense, the highlights I saw for both sides looks like we can beat their defense, we just got to slow their offense.

That was when Rick Culbert was the qb, yep. He was backup qb the year before but mainly played defense and he was darn good at that too. Every so often he'd be on offense for receiver. Great athlete. Dangerous return man. Not ideal for West coast offense. I can only believe that west coast was implemented due to the 7 on 7 success of that group. I would have loved to have this offense with that group. Not saying they had better athletes but it would have been interesting. And the defense from 00-02 ... just game changing.

Do you remember what offense Vidor ran between 04-06 before we switched to the Slot T when Haegquist (sp?) was QB?

Evidently Dist 9 takes a lackadaisical approach to defense.  Their game plan is simply to outscore the other team.

i do not remember it specifically, but i did manage to catch a few games in those years. I thought Andy was a solid threat at QB. He had the wheels to take off and burn. Seemed to be pretty balanced attack though. I found this highlight reel on youtube. I see wishbone, i formation, and veer for sure. Andy seemed to target #5 Perry a lot, as he was a pretty good receiver in his own right.

That’s awesome, good music too. That RB 32 had some wheels, love watching Vidor sling that ball around lol. Man those gold helmets were sweet.

Hope the last 2 didn’t depress you too much…

Just what you don’t need.  Hate to hear it, for the kids and the team.  Especially since I’m a Raider fan now.

I know a line backer. What other position? LuMberton Vidor and I’m assuming Huffman is still banged up. LCM is fully healthy to my knowledge and will be getting a linemen back this week from a mcl sprain.

LB - ACL

Offensive Left Tackle - Broken Fibula

I absolutely hate hearing about this, especially right when the playoffs are beginning. I heard about the LB, and I told RaiderGirl that during pretty much the first half, I seen him limping and grabbing his knee. Hate that for y'all!

The OT was a great player too.

The OL - no headlines and little or no recognition, but to have a winning team, one of the most important components.  Without a good effort from them QB’s can’t setup and make their throws, RB’s rarely clear the line of scrimmage.  Them hoggs make things work.
