Pretty much the same response I got from a WB and KTZ coach! "Because a lot of rules can basically be bent or over ruled by the UIL at any time I’ve come to notice 😂" Good old UIL everything is grey and keeps getting more grey!

Angleton's defense has gotten some reinforcements over the off season. CB Jordan Hasker comes over from FB Marshall as a sophomore and already has 2 D1 offers. Lathan Newman, another CB, comes down from Shadow Creek where he led their freshman team with 6 int's according to HUDL. He was also the middle school defensive MVP, but they don't say whether that was just for his school or the district. Also Gavin Hebert, Angleton's left OT last year has apparently moved over to DT. He was 2nd team all district as a sophomore at Hightower in 2023 at DT.

Why the change? Is it due to shortage of refs that’s been talked about?

Trivia: If High School Football is King in Texas, La Porte and Deer Park are the coronation sites, and The Border Battle is the 'Official Texas State Rivalry'. The battle for Texas Independence was fought and won at San Jacinto in La Porte, and Antonio Lopez de Santa Anna was caught, captured, and surrendered to General Sam Houston in what is now Deer Park. Texas Independence was birthed in these two blue collar towns that border one another, and are separated by a white line on a road. Commemorating the battle that secured independence, the San Jacinto Monument in La Porte is still the world's tallest war memorial at 567.31 feet. (The Washington Monument is 555 feet.) If you're coming to see a game at La Porte, it's worth it to come early, stop at the San Jacinto Monument and see the exhibits and grounds.

Pretty much what we figured! @Big girl @UT alum @DCT @Boyz N Da Hood

My last post on university comparisons was to really ask the question…..why doesn’t China (and other countries) educate their own? We have more Indian (not native) students than Chinese and India hasn’t been much of a friend lately. Why come here? As of late, I question the “higher learning” of our schools. I’ve posted videos of college students who can’t tell you how many moons earth has, and the higher learning schools are woke and antisemitic, so exactly what is the attraction for over half a million students? I’m a Trump supporter, but this throws up some red flags. Funny…..libs never question their leaders.

I was there that night, definitely an error I would say.

I don’t trust china period. not saying all 600k are spies but to say there is none…well that s just foolishness.

Only Know Him As Slinger

Everything is wrong with that. Especially you holding a quality education and a quality football team on equal footing. It's also worth noting that putting your kid into the best math program does not screw other kids.

Just a Google search. 600,000 students seems like a lot. Chinese universities are rapidly improving in global rankings due to massive government investment and research output, while U.S. universities remain strong but are improving at a slower pace. Key differences include the heavily standardized, high-pressure Chinese admission system versus a more holistic U.S. approach, the greater government control in China's education system compared to U.S. university autonomy, and lower tuition costs and living expenses in China. Key Differences Admissions: China: Admissions are dominated by the high-stakes, nationwide Gaokao exam, which students cram for extensively and which heavily influences their future prospects. U.S.: U.S. universities use a more holistic approach, considering grades, essays, extracurriculars, and other factors for admission. Government Influence: China: The government heavily influences higher education and research through initiatives and directives. U.S.: U.S. universities have greater autonomy, though they are overseen by government-appointed accrediting agencies and have governing boards. Cost: China: Tuition and living costs, including food and dorms, are significantly lower than in the U.S. U.S.: Public and private universities in the U.S. typically have much higher tuition and living expenses. Curriculum and Focus: China: The curriculum is often focused on deeper learning in a narrower set of subjects, with less emphasis on optional courses. U.S.: There is a greater emphasis on creativity and a broader, more flexible curriculum, often with a wide range of optional courses. Campus Environment: China: Campuses often have a more controlled environment, with gates and walls, and the academic atmosphere can be more structured. U.S.: Campuses are generally more open and diverse, and the culture emphasizes meritocracy and cultural inclusivity. Recent Trends Rising Global Reputation: Chinese universities have seen a dramatic rise in global rankings due to focused government investment in scientific research, leading to higher research productivity. Quality of Education: While U.S. universities continue to improve, they are doing so at a slower pace than many Asian universities, particularly in China. International Recognition: Chinese academic qualifications are increasingly recognized internationally, with many universities offering programs taught in English to attract international students

I understand that Rice lost quite a bit from that squad last year to graduation? EC may have a shot at this one. What's the new QB's name?

Huntsville @ Brenham. Hope the Frito Pie is good.

Way wrong. The school is responsible for providing an education. Not to monopolize on sports and NIL. Also, as a taxpayer I am not going to pay for your kid to come in and take advantage of what was built within the community. If your kid is that good, send them to IMG or a private school known for sports.

I don't think any MAGA would agree with this. I do trust Trump. So, is this a ploy of some sort? Who knows. But if this is real, I would suggest contacting your Congressman and Senators about this. The bottom line, if true, is that any student from China is required to spy when in the US. I don't think anyone can reasonably doubt this!

Sports is not part of the curriculum. You don't need it to graduate. Why you think it is tells me everything about your viewpoint.

Thank goodness you are not in a position of decision making for UIL high school athletics, because you would have sports programs folding left and right.

No, it's part of the curriculum. And let's drop the narrative that sports it's a privilege. If you're good enough you're going to play. Privilege is when you get something you haven't earned. Throw in the fact that kids get scholarships and NIL for athletics, if a parent wants to move to put their kid in a better program so they can get more exposure, the old school should not have any say so in them playing immediately. It's the parents call. The UIL is dead wrong on this. If my son was still playing and a coach tried to stop him from sitting up for his new school, I would have sued. Look at what happened to the NCAA. It's coming for the UIL.

Let’s assume arguendo that this is correct. They are here to spy and have been vetted for such. According to the article there are already 270,000 CCP students in the US. Let’s go with the intelligence gathering numbers. Some students may just be well connected and are actually here to learn with no intelligence gathering assignment. So being conservative we can put the current number of spies acting as students at 150,000. That leaves 120,000 actual students currently in the country. I am thinking that spies are not going to be in Groves trying to find out the current prices of Blue Bell ice cream at HEB. More likely they are going to be in cities with perhaps technology jobs, government contracts or obviously research universities since they are students. Cities the size of Kountze or Nederland are going to have research universities or any likely government contracts. Restricting this intelligence gathering to cites with over 100,000 people (like Beaumont), the CCP students have 346 US cities to choose from. Under our current situation with only slightly over half of the CCP students acting as spies, each of those cities already has over 400 spies. So Beaumont, TX has 400 Chinese spies masquerading as students. If all of the 270,000 students are spies as you suggest, we currently have almost 800 CCP spies in every city in the US with over 100,000 people. So under your scenario, Beaumont could currently have about 800 CCP spies but it could balloon to over 1,000 if Trump strikes a deal. Really? If the current 270,000 trained spies are getting the intelligence……. EDIT: Tpyo

Thursday Mcgregor @ Hillsboro 9-jv head line judge Friday Mart @ Whitney official 25-40 clock operator 👍🏻 Should be a good one as I believe Whitney beat the tar out of Mart, embarrassed them last year. Plus hopefully the food selections in Whitneys press box are good. In my coaching years in Southeast Texas, the best food as a pressbox coach were The Rig in Pearland ( always Cajun seafood and chicken) or Port Arthur Memorial ( homemade plates of smothered pork chops, mashed potatoes and macaroni with cheese).

They're not going to beat Silsbee and realistically its probably not going to much of a game but they may surprise a team or two in district.... *Next year and the following year they will plenty of noise. As long as everyone continues to play football. This sophomore group has lots of talent on the baseball field as well.

What's wrong with that? If you can move and put your kid into the best math program, why not for football or any other sport?

What are your predictions for this one? Last Year Rice Consolidated Shut Out EC 27-0. This Year With The New QB Can They Keep It Close Or Even Get The Win ? With The New Signal Caller (AKA Slinger), The Two Headed Monster In The Backfield (AKA Jones and Ceasar) And Double Trouble At The Wideouts (AKA West and West) The Offense Looks To Light Up The Scoreboard.
