Over/underperforming ball clubs


Recommended Posts

I will say Nederland is progressing faster than I thought for the first year of a new coaching staff.  And they have some good players coming up as well.

WOS had a rough start but seems to be getting on track at the right time.

Silsbee is kind of back and forth.

Nederland new regime seems to have turn things around rather quickly as well as the under classmen teams.

Bridge City is a big shock for me. Good for them, and hats off to that coaching staff and players.

I thought with drop down for West Brook and United would be big for their programs after being in the toughest district in 6A and they would push for playoffs for 5A… but both are under performing. IMO.

Yeah Bridge City was the other team I was trying to think of as a surprise.

Bridge City easy the surprise of the year. Also didn't Sabine Pass get a win or two this year?

I think they started out very well but have run into some issues the last couple of games.

I didn’t expect either West Brook or United to make the playoffs honestly… regardless of dropping down… They just aren’t good programs right now

Hamshire Fannett kickin' butts and taking names. 

I think most folks expected HF to be very good this year, So can't say they are over performing.

Ranked very high in preseason polls and picked by all the experts to win district.

They were my preseason pick to win district. Now I have WO-S winning district.

Over: Huffman, BC, WOS, Ned, OF (nice adjustment to the new O)

As expected: HF, LCM, PNG, Silsbee, Deweyville

Under: Vidor, Lumberton,

What were Lumbertons expectations? I imagine better than what’s happened but still weren’t much

True not much of an expectation with the amount of returners they lost, still throwing them in that category since they are in a 4-way tie for 4th seed in this district. HJ, Livingston, and LCM remains are their schedule.

Yeah, Lumberton wasn't expected to do much. 30+ seniors graduated and new head coach in his first year with that title. They'll get better down the road.

Do they have the same head coach that all of their fans wanted fired a year ago?  Or did I miss something?

    • That should tell everyone something pretty clearly. Does anyone really think BH is recruiting elementary kids, to get them to transfer in Jr. high? Seriously? Here is the "dirty little secret" about BH: Most people move to the district for a quality living environment to raise their young family, and benefit from the outstanding acedemics at BH. Even If all athlectics suddenly disappeared from BH, people would still want their kids in the district. If thats not enough to convince anyone, and BH really was determined to recruit, first step would be to have open enrollemnt. It is closed.        Yes, I get it, no one ever wants to give BH the benefit of the doubt on anything. Some of the accusations are beyond ridiculous though. This paranoia the BH critics are afflicted with is not just sad, its flat out laughable.     
    • Opting is always an option. Are they considering any BC assistants? Highly qualified after that season they put up. 
    • Be that as it may, only time will tell. Hide and watch. Don’t be surprised if the next HC hire uses his own recipe. That happens more than not historically. I am not arguing the point that Hooks & CT had a winning combination that could’ve been carried over. I’m saying that finding someone to do that is not going to be as easy as one might think. Tell me again why Saban’s replacement, who even has Saban’s assistance if he wants it, just lost another game to an unranked team and has taken the Tide out of playoff contention? Why wouldn’t he just follow the success of possibly the greatest college football coach ever lived? 
    • We've acknowledged having 2 HOF coaches hasn't been like most other schools. So why everyone jumps to the conclusion it wouldn't work here is beyond my comprehension. I see it carry over with these other hires. Gilmer, Aledo, North Shore, Austin Westlake. Next man up that continues the system in place has instant success. Matter fact there was 2 rookie HC that won the state championship the same year we handed over the keys. Same book. Same recipe. Better ingredients.
