Thanks guys for the vote of confidence. There has been a new life breathed into the Cardinals this year. Rusty Cauthern has brought a new Offense (well it is actually the old offense that the Cardinals ran with success back in the day) and a new philosiphy to High Island.

Hey guys, we are just getting started!!!!!!!!!

Good Luck to everyone this week. I will keep you informed how the game is going. The Jr. High just made it back into town 42 - 6 over the jackets.

Go Cardinals!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks Bucpride & ECbucfan, I appreciate the words of encouragement. I think the Cardinals are in the biginning phase of something big for the next few years. The new Coaching staff has done a great job preparing the kids so far this year.

I went to the Buc game in H-J last Friday. The Bucs looked real good, even with the injuries on the sideline. That has to give you a good feeling this year, 4-0 against bigger schools. Tony & the rest of the Buc coaches have done an outstanding job. I think the week off is probably well needed ans deserved. Keep up the good work Bucs.

The Cardinals should get their first victory tonight. Very exciting time in HI.

    • 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
