I'll have to see after week-2. Can't say Ned wont be ready for district on paper seeing who they're scrimmaging and their first 3 games of the season. First step is the QB situation, but based on what Coach Barrow said I feel like both kids will be on the field in some capacity. 

 

I'd start the 6'4 kid and have the other one on the field at WR/RB. I'm about 99% certain he'll have the speed demon CB play snaps on offense some so that'll give yall another weapon. Anyone knows what's up with the trenches on both sides?

Must play much better than last year or Barrow May have to pack his bags. I don’t know if the talent level has really fallen off the bandwagon or not, but the Dogs have not been very good the past few years. A few playoff appearances, but have been demolished in the 1st, 2nd, and a couple of 3rd round appearances. I do know the OL and QB positions have been bad. Hopefully much better this season

Ned is at a disadvantage in the numbers game.  Been my contention forever that 5A-D2 has too big of a numbers gap, and Ned is one of the cellar teams.  You can pop a good season every so often, but to confront it consistently is a long row to hoe.  Jmo

From what I have been told from reliable  sources from previous school & Ned, 6’4” QB is soft, slow, panics under pressure & not athletic. Unless major work & improvement has occurred this off season with 6’4” cat  then the Sunday kid playing the QB position is probably the best option to make plays from the QB spot this year & by his jr. & Sr. Seasons Ned will have a solid experienced dual threat QB. Like you said with the PA scrimmage & 1st 3 games everyone will know who can handle the QB duties best

Speed is not his strong suit....

I was told this about the 6’4 kid as well as that sophomore and freshman class is the biggest and most talented group coming through in a very long time..

Vidor dealt with that for a long time. It’s tough when other schools have 400,500,600 more kids to choose from to build a football team.

And that history lesson was the reason for my post.  I watched the Pirates face that for years.  Saw a booster of a 5A-D1 team talking about being the smallest school in their District.  I think the break for D-1 is only about 300 total.  While his team was the big dog in 5A-D2, having 3 to 5 hundred numbers advantage, numbers was no big thing.  Now his team is 150 smaller - Oh goodness, we’re so small.  Lmbo - Cest la vie.😂👽😂

Hmmmm.....I wonder if that team has high participation numbers within its program with the same overall talent across the board.....there's 2 schools that come to mind and they just played in Jerry World recently.

I was impressed with his arm strength more than anything ultimately the decision lies with coach barrow

Biggest question mark this year OL was awful last year, got two out of 5 starters back this year very young on the OL with a steep learning curve early (WO-S and Memorial)

    • I too, wish #15 was healthy and playing.  And also another RB (can't recall the #), who went down in the first game of the season. But, some others have stepped up and are hard runners.  I'm really looking forward to watching this game. 
    • Still, from what little I saw, it should have been a much closer game.  WOS was missing some fundamentals on defense, and a lack of imaginative play calling on offense.  Just my opinion as an objective observer on Texan Live, which was horrible btw, but that's another story. 
    • Either way,one game lead in the series. I rely to much on word of mouth 
    • West Orange Stark has been a powerhouse since I csn remember. At some point, your bound to fall off to some degree. Alabama has 3 or 4 loses this season. Who would have thought? Has Orange lost kids to LCM or even Orangefield?
    • Interesting matchup this Friday. Both teams have very good offensive and defensive lines, which will make this game interesting. Having watched Texas High all season, they have a wide open offense with very good skill players. If you look at their stats they run the ball 57% of the time and pass 43% of the time. Personally, that is a bit deceiving, as most of their games have seen reserves running the ball in the 4th quarter. I would estimate the primary offense is 50/50. Through 12 games they have run for 3,224 yds (48tds) and passed for 2,894 yds (32 yds). Potter, the Tiger QB, has been very efficient with a 69% completion rate and 1 interception (which came from a tipped pass). The passing is distributed primarily to 4 receivers…. Ball (865), Wrightner (811), Montgomery (532), & Pilgreen (392). The rushing comes from 3 running backs … Johnson (1,432), Ball (768) & Moore (716).  The Tiger defense is solid and very quick.    Hope #15 is healthy enough to play. He is a test for any defense. I was concerned about the Nederland RB, but felt Texas High did a good job containing him. I wish this game was in the afternoon, as Nachitoches is having their Festival of Lights and their will not be any rooms in the inns and restaurants will be full so plan accordingly. PNG are state champions until someone knocks them off, so I extend the Indians the respect they deserve. Pulling for the Tigers.
