Talk about it in Hell's Half Acre
Crosby, Tx is home to one of the top quarterbacks in the class of 2011 in Dominic Merka. The big signal caller has stated in the past that he likes TCU but his interest may have just increased after what transpired today. After visiting the TCU campus, Merka was offered a full scholarship to play football for the Horned Frogs. So was the visit what Merka expected?

 

Merka was offerred by TCU on his visit
"It went really good" said Merka. "I got to tour the campus and I had a chance to see all of the facilities, it was nice."

With the TCU offer now in his back pocket, Merka is looking to draw more interest his way and hopes to visit Texas Tech and Nebraska in the near future.

"I was supposed to go to Nebraska this weekend but it was too far for now" he said. 
With cold weather looming around Ft. Worth the last few weeks, the sun was a welcome sight for the locals and it made for a perfect day for a visit. So did anything catch Merka's eye while in town?

"I really just like how everything is close together" he said. "I liked the way the campus was layed out and I enjoyed my visit. They offered me but I didn't commit. I want to take a little time before I commit somewhere."

On a scale from 1 to 10, how did his visit rate?

"I would say it was about an 8" said Merka. "There were a few other prospects there and I met a couple of them but they were ariving at different times and I only got to meet a couple of them. Overall it was a good visit though and TCU is a school that I'm interested in."

While Merka holds just one offer, more could be on the way very soon. At 6'4" and 215 pounds, Merka has the perfect size for a college quarterback. A true dual threat, Merka hopes to improve on his junior year performance and lead his team to a championship. While it may be a while before he pulls the trigger on a commitment, stay logged on to PurpleMenace.com and we'll keep you up to date with all the latest in Merka's recruitment.

First of many offers. Can't wait for 2010 football season to begin. Merka is a great leader and leaves it on the field every play. He'll be playing on Saturdays , no doubt. Watch this video. Pay close attention to #13 from Montgomery. That's how you Bring The Hat . www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZZ-DHK2MepE

      REL actually improved this year to 6-4 which was remarkable because like you said, they had a lot of injuries and their bench was thin before that.  It’s crazy how the smallest of the 3 GCCISD High Schools finds a way to at least field a team that can hold their own but you’re right that coaching is one aspect of it.  Not that they’re a top 150 team or even close to it but if they’d lost a couple less guys there’s a real chance they could have beat Texas City and gone to at least the 1st round of playoffs this year which for GCCISD football might as well be State for how hard it is for them.   You’re spot-on about GCM and RSS coaches.  GCM coach is 2-28 over 3 years and RSS coach is 15-45 over 6.  Hard to get kids to participate in what they know from the outset is a losing proposition.  I watched the GCM/NS Game.  I was worried someone would get hurt, felt sick.  All 22 of NS starters are high level D1 Commits, QB is 19 years old, and GCM lined up a bunch of Sophomores against them, kids that aren’t even old enough to drive.     I know GCCISD wouldn’t ever do it but they really ought to stop insisting that the 3 High Schools play each other for their first 2 out of conference games.  At least let GCM out of it.  All 3 schools are in different Classifications so the wins don’t matter except for bragging rights around town and with REL winning both those games every season all it does is kill morale before the first District game is even played.  Let GCM schedule some OOC games on their level like Houston Sterling/Sam Houston/Chavez for their first 3.  That way there’s a good chance even if they lose every District game they could end up 3-7 and if they beat Channelview 4-6.  GCM having to lose to RSS and REL to start their season every year is just a killer.   You want to know why all the talent at EF Green Jr doesn’t show up at GCM?  Because that talent transfers to North Shore after 8th grade is done.  Straight-up.  They don’t care if you know either.  Those kids moms get on Facebook and brag about it.  Of course, most of those kids end up so far back on the depth chart that by Sophomore year they want to transfer back just so they can get to play at all but then you run into the eligibility thing.    Anyway, sorry for the off-topic tangent, this is a BH thread.

      They are very good. Really good shooting guard that's '6"3. Also have a do it all forward that's '6"5. He does everything for them. Score, rebound, defend. Maybe not as quick overall as those other teams, but I think they will at least make state semifinals.

      What’s your take on brookeland?  How do they compare to those teams in the late 90s early 2000s?
