Worried about some competition moving up for your Raiders?

[BBfan061]

I’d imagine it’s a team not wanting to play Silsbee,Jasper,Hamshire Fannett, and West Orange Stark for a playoff shot for the next two years and would rather take their chances vs the Lumberton district 

[BBfan061]

Which with Bridge City probably going 4A D1 due to enrollment it isn’t them

Hj and Liberty wouldn't compete anyways. Lumberton LCM and Vidor have been in the top 3 the last several years. Those teams are not going to beat them. The only chance they would have is against is 2-8 Livingston

I'm a little curious on how the district would look though if this does work out for them and they can move up.

Lum

LCM

Splendora

Livingston

BC 

HJ

Liberty

Vidor

They would still have a better shot at playoffs than where they are cu

[Lumbertonraider17]

 competition, they lost to lcm bad this year. They must be talking about HJ or liberty 

[HarryDoyle]

If UIL allows that to happen it will start an epidemic of teams opting up to avoid certain districts.

[Lumbertonraider17]

 so they go 1-19 the last 2 years and they want to find the easy way out. Maybe go find a new coach 

[89Falcon]

Maybe teams are tired of having no chance to win a State Championship because all roads end at Carthage.

That’s what I was thinking, maybe WOS and Silsbee?

[navydawg31]

What if it’s Silsbee and WOS to avoid that Carthage, Gilmer, PG, Cuero? 👀👀

Yeah... I don't see HJ or Liberty moving in and disrupting Vidor, LCM, or Lumberton.  Maybe they can battle for 4th, but then again, I don't think they can beat out Huffman or Livingston.

[navydawg31]

I guess district would be if it was Silsbee and WOS 

BC, WOS, LCM, Vidor, Lumberton, Silsbee… if UIL to leave it at 6 or add in livingston? Huffman? or both? 

[Mr. Thornton Melon]

So BC and Smalley are bringing another slot-T team to the district and Hiawatha wants to opt up ? 😬

[Mr. Thornton Melon]

With Splendora going 5-A these new teams ( if it's hj & liberty) will take their place as cellar dwellar.

Exactly what I was thinking. Lumberton was so bad before they got a new coach but they made the move and now are winning games . Yes, the district is very weak but they are still winning more after the change

That's funny. I remember them going 2 rounds deep in 18-19 & 19-20 before Reyes got there. They crapped the bed 20-21. 21-22 they went 1 round deep Reyes's first year then 3 rounds deep his second year. Which tells me that 20-21 was a personnel issue, not a coaching issue.
