jr1979 Posted August 23, 2008 Report Posted August 23, 2008 IN MY OPINION THE TIGHTEND IS THE MOST UNDER USED POSITION IN HS FOOTBALL. WHEN USED THE TE CREATES MISMATCHES WITH LB AND ALSO ADDS A BIGGER, EXTRA BLOCKER TO THE LINE ON DIFFERENT PLAYS (OTHER THAN A RECEIVER). I WOULD REALLY LIKE TO SEE THE TE USED MORE, B/C THIS SPREAD CRAP MAKES ME SICK. P.S. DOES YOUR TEAM USE THE TE?
WOSMustangs09 Posted August 23, 2008 Report Posted August 23, 2008 in order to use a TE you must first have a TE thats good enough to play!
jr1979 Posted August 23, 2008 Author Report Posted August 23, 2008 WO-S don't! YOU ARE RIGHT, NOT ENOUGH. BUT WHEN THEY DO HE DOES VERY WELL. I'M SPEAKING OF THE KID # 81 (PROVOST). THE TIMES HE DID GET IN, HE WAS ABOUT 15 YARDS DOWN FIELD BLOCKING HIS MAN. I HEARD THAT HE IS VERY ATHELETIC AND CAN ALSO CATCH. SO. ??? ??? ???
jr1979 Posted August 23, 2008 Author Report Posted August 23, 2008 in order to use a TE you must first have a TE thats good enough to play! SO YOU DON'T THINK WOS HAS ONE OR TWO?
jr1979 Posted August 28, 2008 Author Report Posted August 28, 2008 I'M SURPRISED TO SEE THAT THIS THREAD DIDN'T TAKE OFF LIKE I THOUGHT IT WOULD HAVE. I GUESS EVERYONE ON HERE, THAT REPRESENTS A HS TEAM, LOVES THE SPREAD. ???
TheCardinalFan Posted August 29, 2008 Report Posted August 29, 2008 The TE position is vital to a running game, if you play smash mouth football. The Spread is the in thing right now. It is all part of the scheme that the HC believes in. IF your guy (TE) is an athlete, then he will be playing somewhere. I am not speaking for any Coach in SETX, but I have a good feeling that they are well aware of the athletes that they have on the field.
82 5A State Champs Posted August 29, 2008 Report Posted August 29, 2008 The TE gives you another option to use in your offense. West Brook currently doesn't have any sets that utilize a TE. Although I think it could be a very vital asset to anyone's offense.......if run correctly.
UTfanatic Posted August 29, 2008 Report Posted August 29, 2008 IMO The TE is the only player that can keep the safety's from becoming LB's. Without the threat of a TE to keep them honest in the middle. no hope to run. TOO many men in the box to block. :)

LHSALLZONE Posted August 31, 2008 Report Posted August 31, 2008 whenever the tight end position is used ,in the pros,college, or in high school, it usually creates bad matches for the defense. it seams the most successful teams utilize this valuable position. i think it really causes problems in the high school forum, though most still does not use this position in the passing game enough.

I AGREE WITH YOU, OF COURSE, THAT'S WHY I STARTED THIS POST. IN HIGHSCHOOL ESPECIALLY, YOU WILL GT THE MISMATCHES YOU NEED TO EXPOSE A DEFENSE.

I agree. How many times I've seen kids listed as TE's on rosters and they are not utilized.
Bucof2010 Posted September 1, 2008 Report Posted September 1, 2008 Vance used to get the ball thrown his way quite a bit.
knightrider Posted September 2, 2008 Report Posted September 2, 2008 don't remember a tight end. been so long since we had one. ;D
stangchain Posted September 2, 2008 Report Posted September 2, 2008 I remember when we utilized a TE with Jason Taylor back in the late 90's. Seems like we beat Ned then utilizing him. he made several key catches for us in an exciting win over at the dog pound! That's when I noticed that barking dog for the first time.
77 Posted September 2, 2008 Report Posted September 2, 2008 I guess a tight end is better than a loose end?
bcfan4life67 Posted September 3, 2008 Report Posted September 3, 2008 tightends are some of the most underated players in football and if u have a good one there hard to stop because mainly linebackers are covering them and if a db is covering them it also creates a mismatch because they're usually bigger

B.M.F. Posted September 3, 2008 Report Posted September 3, 2008 I love the spread! No reason to reduce down! Keep on spreading 'em out!
