WOSgrad Posted May 25, 2012 Report Posted May 25, 2012 Jasper's originally scheduled game with La Grange for Sept. 28 has fallen through, so they are now looking for a new opponent for Week 4.Anyone who can help can contact Coach Darrell Barbay at: 409-679-2514 or [email protected]
biaplayer Posted May 26, 2012 Report Posted May 26, 2012 Tell the coach to. Call fairclothe at png he might be game, maybe maybe not may want that week off!

j_dog Posted May 26, 2012 Report Posted May 26, 2012 Where is Silsbee ?? Here is the opportunity to do some creative re-scheduling? Could Silsbee swap around?? Seems silly to have this break in playing! Is the reason it did not happen gone now?

After the 2 schools couldn't get together, Silsbee has filled a 10 game schedule. Also, because 21-3A is a 7 team district now, all of the schools (except one) will start on Week 4.

Silsbee did all they could to keep the long time series between the two teams intact, but Morgan didn't want to play.These two teams started playing each other in 1923, have played 74 times over the years, every year since 1948. Just a crying shame that the series couldn't continue. Hopefully it will get back on in the next realignment.

scoopno1 Posted May 29, 2012 Report Posted May 29, 2012 I have spoken with Silsbee coaches many times. The reason they did not play Jasper had nothing to do with the coaches. Silsbee anticipated that they would play Jasper in game five and then discovered that a sixth district game had been added. Coach McGallion did not want to go back on his word to the people he had already committed to play in the first four games.(PNG, LCM, Lumberton and Livingston) This left them no spot to play Jasper. It is my understanding that Jasper wanted to continue the series with Silsbee.

Fan1111 Posted May 31, 2012 Report Posted May 31, 2012 How are things in Jasper? Which Coaches are leaving? Who are the new guys coming in? Who is staying? Anyone with any information...been a little silent around there lately.

Guest incognito123 Posted June 1, 2012 Report Posted June 1, 2012 I know of one assistant coming to Jasper with Coach Barbay, but it's not my place to say. Those involved in the situation already know. I"m sure there is more than one coming with Coach Barbay.
Guest ECBucFan Posted June 1, 2012 Report Posted June 1, 2012 Back to Jasper needing a game, everyone should realize the vast majority of teams already have a full 10 game schedule in place. 10 regular season games is the UIL max allowed. Inevitably, this situation arises for a team or two each year, and the message boards light up with rampant, misguided speculation. The question that should be asked is: [i]"Who out there [u]does not[/u] have a full 10 game schedule set up yet"[/i]. Answer that and you can precisely narrow the potential opponents down. Folks mean well, but just saying "Hey, lets play so-and-so that week" is usually impossible, since most already have full schedules. Anyone know of a team still [i]needing[/i] a tenth game? Thats who Jasper could play.
BrenhamFan Posted June 1, 2012 Report Posted June 1, 2012 Looks like they are going to have to take whatever they can get, like we did with Pope John.
Guest ECBucFan Posted June 1, 2012 Report Posted June 1, 2012 If they can't find a 2a-3a-4a team to play, they should consider a JV from a top notch 5A school. I bet any of the preseason 5A Top Ten schools have excellent JV's that could give the Dogs a good game. Would be better than nothing for sure.
Guest incognito123 Posted June 1, 2012 Report Posted June 1, 2012 Call Lufkin's JV. Not much of a commute and probably would be fairly competitive.
WOSgrad Posted June 8, 2012 Author Report Posted June 8, 2012 Coach Barbay e-mailed that they are still looking for that 10th game. If you know a school that has less than 10 games on their schedule and has either Sept. 28 or Oct. 12 free, they can contact Darrell Barbay at 409-679-2514.
Guest ECBucFan Posted June 9, 2012 Report Posted June 9, 2012 Might be worth checking to see if someone in Louisiana needs a game. If worse comes to worse, southern Arkansas could be an option since Jasper is up in deep east TX. I think the Lufkin JV is worth a look too, like BTP said. Hope it works out somehow.

[/quote]As far as out of state, Coach Barbay is way ahead of you. He has called in Louisiana, Arkansas AND Mississippi without any luck.
WOSgrad Posted June 12, 2012 Author Report Posted June 12, 2012 [quote name="ShlyKBMT" post="1229969" timestamp="1339459551"]5A Plano East is open on the 28th.[/quote]But do they have 10 games or 9?
AshlyHasBeen Posted June 12, 2012 Report Posted June 12, 2012 They are looking for a game. Christopher Lyke from texashsfootball.com just posted it.
WOSgrad Posted June 12, 2012 Author Report Posted June 12, 2012 Okay, well I just emailed Coach Barbay about it.
