No excuses. We are content with 2 rounds in the playoffs. If you are interested in seeing what is in the cards. Go to Texas A&M recruiting forum and see who is ranked their #1 recruit for the class of 2027.

Who might that be?

Luke Babin. Upcoming sophomore QB who hasn't played much varsity yet but looked really good leading the jv to a DC as a freshman. 

It really makes a coaching staff look bad when you have a Kid of this caliber making waves at the p5 level and not get playing time at the varsity level,Especially in the lower classification of High school football.

Where is he making waves? Hard to believe he is that great of athlete at a smaller 3A and not playing varsity… I can promise you if Bellville had a freshman with any actual D1 capability he would be playing varsity…

No one is content with being eliminated. Except maybe excuse making over zealous fans who can't win an argument on merit.

You have a point but I could see why the staff made that decision after how the scrimmage against WOS looked last season. He just didn't have the experience to deal with the pressure that would come from good defenses yet. Playing on the jv last season it looked like he improved in mental and physical toughness compared to seasons before. Also sharpened his mechanics even more and is starting to realize how good he can be now.

    • naw, maaaaybe 7, definitely not 8 deep.  today im avoiding sitting by #10s parents, had to move away yesterday.   "put my son back in jub, put my son back in"  and then crying on every little touch of someone.    lets ball out today ktz!    
    • 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.
    • 1 thing for certain. Coach Earned 3 more years to figure it out lol
