It would show respect, not cost anything and would not be hard to do. During the half time shows, have the marching bands make a 112% on the field and play a song in dedication of Reggie.

just a thought...................

WOS band could only do one number at a time!  I can remember when they were big enough to spell out West Orange-Stark on the field, stretching from goal post to goal post.  Now, we can only make the "O". 

Pretty neat idea though!

Hey Gas...Any talk about retiring Reggie's number or is this just a gimme.

I hope they do.. We did this Burkeville for BJ Lewis #7, he didn't pass away during a game, but he passed away in a car accident about a month after graduation. In fact his graduation class is planning a balloon release at the homemcoming game this friday, to mark 7 years since his passing and he wore the #7. He was the quarterback that lead us to state in 2001-2002. We are planning to pay tribute to Reggie as well, as I have forwarded some of these ideals to our school adminstrators and they agree whole heartily.. Heartfelt sympathy goes out to the Garrett family.  May God be with you always is my pray.

As far as Nederland goes I'm going to the booster club meetring tomorrow night to suggest #12 stickers for our boys helmets. And to all NHS fans: let's pull together and all wear 112% on our shirts or bring signs with 112% on it. Pass this along to as many people as you can through text, email, or facebook. Let's show the Garrett family how much Nederland and our community support them. What an awesome idea this topic was!

My daughter came came home yesterday and she said that Nederland HS is selling shirts for the game friday night which will bear some type of dedication to Reggie. I gave her the money this morning to buy shirts and we will proudly wear this shirt in Vidor Friday night.

All of the Silsbee Volleyball players wore blue ribbons in their hair last night and senior, co-captain, Katy Adams gave up her #8 jersey and wore #12 in Reggie's honor last night.

Mac, if y'all have a picture of Katy donning the #12 jersey as well as the blue ribbons, I'd certainly like to get a picture of those to put up in the thread of pictures of things folks are doing to salute Reggie's memory.

Thanks to Katy and the Silsbee girls for remembering.

The people in Southeast Texas continue to amaze me with the support they are showing the Garrett family and the entire Mustang family.

    • RWG Stem vs Liberty Magnet tips off in 5 minutes in the main gym.
    • 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.
