This team is competitive when they play together and work as a team. I do agree a stronger non District schedule would better prepare the Pirates for their District.
pirate supporter Posted October 25, 2010 Report Posted October 25, 2010 whats up with the undisciplined playing? heard they had to bench a senior because of behavior on field from the week before.

At some point the players have to learn from their mistakes and improve.
DP#1FAN Posted October 25, 2010 Report Posted October 25, 2010 Bottom Line "undisciplined playing" Is the Head Coaches problem. It is he [b]who can put a stop to that[/b].
Clsof87Pirate Posted October 26, 2010 Report Posted October 26, 2010 Bottom line. Deweyville is smallest school in district. too many one way players. not enough team speed to match up to bigger schools. In my opinion they took Deweyville out of the frying pan and threw them in the fire when they moved them out of the district they were in. There is some good talent on this team, as with teams in the past. But playing tougher non district games is not the answer. Dont think coaching is the only problem either. Playing tough non district games only gives you more pre-district injuries,from playing bigger schools. Deweyville was only eight kids from dropping down to 1a. Thats where we need to be, and thats where we can compete. Took Evadale to the wire, they are in top ten in texas 1a. They will probably go undefeated in their district for the second year in a row. They would not make the play-offs in our district either. Not because of coaching, or schedule, but because of their size and lack of team speed. Same as us! Not much you can do about it either, its what your delt, when you have 40 students to make a team. my 2 cents anyway.
SA fan 9 Posted October 26, 2010 Report Posted October 26, 2010 Yall are not the only ones in that kind of shape. I believe that we were only five kids above the 1A limit ourselves. We had teams like kirbyville and newton to contend with last year though!

Would you really want them to be in this district still?? With East Chambers, Anahuac, Newton, etc.

Both teams are still in 2A, suck it up and deal with it. Can not use it as an excuse.

They are put in this district because the schools are smaller. The old district would be a nightmare for us right now. That is where the LARGER schools are. Go look at enrollment numbers in that district. We have competed before when we were bigger and faster as I recall 4 or 5 years ago. Back to back playoff for the Pirates then. They were a very "disciplined team". I wish nothing but the best for the Pirates.
24 over par Posted October 26, 2010 Report Posted October 26, 2010 pirates good get to 1a easy but that has nothing to do with the lack of discipline
D-VILLE Posted October 26, 2010 Report Posted October 26, 2010 If Deweyville wants to get better in football they need to encourage more younge kids to play little league football. You can really tell when kids have played and the one who have not, and it helps the program alot.
SteelerCzy Posted October 26, 2010 Report Posted October 26, 2010 IMO the Pirates can compete in this District IF they learn how to play as a TEAM. The players who have repeatedly made the same mistakes since week one, poor tackling, carrying the ball loosely causing turnover, not covering receiver by using poor technique etc, etc., should be accountable. I know these problems have been addressed in mtg's and practice but the coach doesn't fumble the ball nor does the coach miss a tackle or not cover receivers, the players do, someone needs to step up and be a leader on this team, something that's lacking on this years Pirates. They can compete in this District when they learn to play as a team and correct those previously mentioned correctable mistakes. IMO
