I listened to an episode of the Coaches Lounge from this past summer where Coach Negro, from SJB, and another private school California coach talk about their reach from the greater Los Angeles area.

Ridiculous really.   They have 12,000,000 people to choose their football team from.   No restrictions whatsoever.   All the best kids from that huge area go to 3 or 4 schools.

They are nothing more than the IMG model.

High School football has become a joke.

And that's why comparing them to any of the public school powerhouses is useless. It would be like taking some of the best pieces from all the schools in Houston and putting together a team. No doubt they would play neck and neck with those kids.

You should see the comments in the YouTube videos. Cali folks say they have the best football because of these two highly recruited schools (De La Salle too)…and our football is trash. It’s like saying last years Rams should be able to beat the AFC pro bowl team. When you point it out they say we are crying and that we also recruit. 😜

I agree…it’s the only way we could compete with those type of schools. Make two power house private schools in each of our four major cities. They compare a transfer here and there to recruiting a whole team. They say “y’all recruit in Texas too”. 😆

California folks are the most delusional folks in regards to HS football. It's gotten significantly worse with them over the last 10-12 years in my opinion. 😂

Believe me l know 😆. Being that l live in Dfw l’ve seen these powerhouse private schools manhandle some of our best teams. It’s not even close… Cedar Hill was killed by Bishop Gorman, Desoto killed by IMG and SFA, Dville killed by IMG and Mater Dei, Allen killed by St John Bosco…at halftime the game is already over. Plus l knew about Mater Dei and SJB recruiting because my coworker used to train some of the kids in LA.

Was there a team around Belt Line Rd that beat De La Salle several years ago here in Texas??

DLS was supposed to play North Shore in 2020, but covid put a stop to that. 

Mater Dei head coach is stepping down after this year. Be interesting to see if it impacts the program in the long run.

Very interesting…they say he’s a pretty good coach. It will be a dream job l’m sure plenty will interview for.

Completely agree.

Allowing Texas and A&M to recruit nationally with unlimited scholarships, and the rest of the NCAA only to recruit from within their home state.

Not sure why these high school coaches schedule IMG, SJB, and the rest of the football factories.

      Orangefield 65 Livingston 83/FINAL

      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.
