Lufkin going " OLD SCHOOL "

The word is finally out. Lufkin is changing their offense away from true spread offense. Going back to a more Pro style that they had so much success with in 2001-2002. Use a tightend lots more under center and shotgun formations.

I think it is a very good idea to go away from the spread because they have a good RB in Trevon Lewis and it looks like he will finally be a featured back.  I have personally seen Lufkin play many times and running the ball out of the spread always works okay in the regular season but when the get into the playoffs Lufkins RBs always get shut down.  With Lufkin going to a more run oriented team I see Trevon Lewis getting 2000 yards.

I'm surprised they would go to it after the success they had a few years back.  Didn't they win state just a few yrs. ago?

Seems to me most teams are looking at SLC and trying to mimick them, just because of their string of successful years, because it appears stupid to stay the same, when the spread is obviously better.  But, like posted above, the spread doesn't work for every team (look at PNG).

    • 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 McnNeese 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 easy and obvious solution but I’m more of a pragmatist.
    • 1 thing for certain. Coach Earned 3 more years to figure it out lol
