Message to the HI coaches:
Spurger doesn't use a running clock when the game becomes a blow out.
I have witnessed this twice in HI, both in Jr. high games w/ Spurger. One last week w/ the Jr. girls & one when this Boys Varsity team was in Jr. high.

That may be, however, the coaches in HI know when to back down. Especially when the other team only has 5 players total and 3 of those 5 are sixth graders. They know when enough is enough and you drop back and if nothing else play half court man. They have more class than to purposely try to humilate a group of kids not even in high school yet. And just to let you know it was at the request of the officials that the clock be run.

Sideline fan, I see on the post about the Evadale/HI game that Evadale won by 49. Did they drop back tot he running clock or half court man idea once the game became obvious?

If the rules change during a game, no matter how lopsided it has become, what is the message being taught then. I agree, the better team should put in the bench and try to make it a better situation, but change rules?

If it was me, at the end of the game I would like to know that I gave it all that I had and the team had. It is what it is. I think it would suck to know that the rules were changed more than getting my crap beaten out of me.

[/quote]And 4 of the 5 starters for spurgers jh girls are 7th grade so you will see them again.
They played zone and back the press off untill yall started running the clock on time outs.
that is a heck of a game plan in the fourth period,last 5 or so mins call a full time out watch the clock run
and soon as you get back on he floor call another one.(three times in a row) What are you teaching your young players, if you get down by 15 points its ok to give up. ::) ::)

      Port Neches-Groves vs Texas High

      I too, wish #15 was healthy and playing.  And also another RB (can't recall the #), who went down in the first game of the season. But, some others have stepped up and are hard runners.  I'm really looking forward to watching this game.

      Still, from what little I saw, it should have been a much closer game.  WOS was missing some fundamentals on defense, and a lack of imaginative play calling on offense.  Just my opinion as an objective observer on Texan Live, which was horrible btw, but that's another story.

      West Orange Stark has been a powerhouse since I csn remember. At some point, your bound to fall off to some degree. Alabama has 3 or 4 loses this season. Who would have thought? Has Orange lost kids to LCM or even Orangefield?

      Port Neches-Groves vs Texas High

      By Bordertown · Posted

      Interesting matchup this Friday. Both teams have very good offensive and defensive lines, which will make this game interesting. Having watched Texas High all season, they have a wide open offense with very good skill players. If you look at their stats they run the ball 57% of the time and pass 43% of the time. Personally, that is a bit deceiving, as most of their games have seen reserves running the ball in the 4th quarter. I would estimate the primary offense is 50/50. Through 12 games they have run for 3,224 yds (48tds) and passed for 2,894 yds (32 yds). Potter, the Tiger QB, has been very efficient with a 69% completion rate and 1 interception (which came from a tipped pass). The passing is distributed primarily to 4 receivers…. Ball (865), Wrightner (811), Montgomery (532), & Pilgreen (392). The rushing comes from 3 running backs … Johnson (1,432), Ball (768) & Moore (716).  The Tiger defense is solid and very quick.    Hope #15 is healthy enough to play. He is a test for any defense. I was concerned about the Nederland RB, but felt Texas High did a good job containing him. I wish this game was in the afternoon, as Nachitoches is having their Festival of Lights and their will not be any rooms in the inns and restaurants will be full so plan accordingly. PNG are state champions until someone knocks them off, so I extend the Indians the respect they deserve. Pulling for the Tigers.
