If we went solely by your parameters (Hardin, Jefferson and Orange counties) we would only cover around 18 schools. Chambers, Liberty, Polk, Jasper, Tyler and Newton county schools would be omitted. We made the decision many years ago that we would cover every school that was in a district with our "core" schools. "Core" schools was defined by all those counties (nine) that have been listed. We are not defining what is SETX here on the site. Just who we cover. But my definition is vastly larger than yours. Expand You ask 10 people they will give you 10 different answers. Quote

No, I'm not saying they are a bad team. You basically are, though. The point I'm making is that there are MANY, MANY local teams who ARE BAD who would have loved to field the teams and have the results that Orangefield has had over the last decade running the slot-t. Ironically enough, two of the local teams who would gladly trade places with Orangefield over the last decade both had success for a couple of seasons each WHILE RUNNING THE SLOT-T, only to fade back into nothing when they switched offenses. Expand Not completely true. Lumberton made 2 2nd round appearances post slot t (2018-2020 I believe) Quote

Reagan Posted January 13, 2024 Report Posted January 13, 2024 On 1/12/2024 at 6:26 PM, Guitar Man said: Anyone who thinks Orangefield has the personnel to run the spread, and be successful is sadly mistaken. OF historically has been bad at running anything other than the Slot T. The Slot T helps when you don't have good lineman to protect a QB who is trying to read a defense to make a good throw. There are not many lineman bodies walking the halls of Orangefield so the Slot T is the way to go if you wanna continue to be successful in OF. You can't change my mind because OF saw instant success making the switch from the Pro I to the Slot T and they have been way more successful ever since then. Expand In your next post you listed 2 different offenses. Neither one was the Spread. So saying they don't have the personnel to run the spread is a little disingenuous. You can pass a lot out of the Pro-I. But did they? I'm not saying you are wrong or right. But think about this: What if since 2004 they had the Spread install and have been working with their kids in this offense since the 7th grade. Would it look totally different? Not sure. This is were good/great coaches start the QB development. But, this is me offering my opinion just like you offered yours. Quote
