I thought the same of Ozen last year...  They didn't win district, but was pretty dang good and battled tough with a state power Crosby team last year...  I don't have Ozen winning district, but I don't have them any worst than 3rd place....

I don't talk Super Bowl every year. Of course I am biased, but realistic also. This could very well be the year. If teams don't think they can win the Suoerbowl, why play?

2015 Team previews have begin being posted starting today. The previews are being posted in the Texas Helmet forum.
First 4 previews are Crosby, Cleveland, Centerville and Apple Springs

Wosgrad I'd like to personally thank you for the effort you are putting in on this 

​I have to jump in......
What Evadale is to me is a school with a long loyal history that will not be taken from them easily. One small enough it can teach character to each student......
Story:  My Son was on the Basketball team and at one of their games, because of the score, they let their weakest player play almost the last half of the game. This kid had never scored the entire year. He was fouled and had 2 free throws.....He made one......the entire team ran and picked him up and celebrated......The Evadale side of the stands all stood up and cheered. 
After the game, my Son looked at me and asked if I thought the celebration was cool. I agreed and he said that would have never happened at his old School........and he was probably right.
They also say prayers.....

​Sounds like a good school.

​Big Ups on that REB

​you seem to see both sides, glad you on here. Most see only one way and show their true colors. Thx. 

From what I read of the History of the Civil War, the Confederate soldiers were to busy fighting and dying to commit the atrocities you're referring to.  I'm certainly not proud of what many slave owners did, or had done, but the average Confederate soldier was (and I know you've heard this before & will probably blow it off) a relatively poor (what would be described now as trash) man who answered the call for the South, or perhaps drafted into service.  He didnt own slaves, nor a pot to pee in or window to throw it out of.  Like the hundreds of thousands of boys sent to fight in Viet Nam - to stop the "domino effect" (commies will get VNam then Australia, then U.S.).  I was in the Army then.  Fortunately, had orders to go & they got cancelled.  Hell, we didn't know a commie from a Canadian.  If someone mentioned Stalin, we may have heard his name that's it.  Our country called and we got sent where  they wanted us to go.  And almost 60,000 died there, many boys I'd gone to school with.  And like the Civil War, most were the poorer young men, not the rich.
That's the same as happened to the Confederate soldier.  
One last thing Pam, I'm not sure but I'd guess slavery started in America just prior to 1700.  So slaves were subjected to unimaginable cruelties for a hundred & sixty years prior to the War.  That war lasted four years and as you know, hundreds of thousands died.  Very few slave owners, they had money.  So in that 165 years of slavery, that flag, that meant so much to so many men, innocent of the sins of slavery, was only around 4 years.  And those 250,000 men that died, many did in as terrible a way as any slave.  
I don't care about slave owners except to say I hope they rot in hell.  But for all those innocent young men who died, I care for them, just as you care for yours.  
Don't know what else I can tell ya.  We both have TO MUCH to morn, but I'm reaching to you hard as I can. I know your pain, I'm just trying in a sincere way, to explain mine.

​Mack, I respect your opinions because I think your a real football guy like me. I can't say the same for the majority of your constituents though.
I think we can agree that no matter how much how much UCLA wins that they'll never be USC. USC was down for a long while but soon as they won a couple of games they dominated California once again.
Michigan is down right now while Michigan St. is killing it. No matter how long that happens or how much they can beat Michigan though, they'll never be as good as Michigan can be at their best.
Miss St. could never be Ole Miss at their best. Same goes for Georgia and Georgia Tech. Auburn and Alabama. Oregon St. and Oregon. Oklahoma and Oklahoma St.
No matter how good A&M gets, they'll never be as good as Texas can be when they're rolling. Some things are just inherent.  

​Yes he a new OC and DC. Definitely has more help than he had last year.

​I doubt anyone from 5 thru 8 will beat Ozen. After 3 years of turmoil in the program the current 14 starters under Suggs are in the middle of their first full off season since they have been in high school. The only way I see them missing the playoffs is if Ozen like a lot of schools without big numbers suffer key injuries doing the season. As always its how well they come out of their annual brutal preseason. We will see.

​I can't see this hire happening. Why self inflict this type of heat.

​Yes Suggs has a complete staff this year. Having a 3rd year starter at QB in Boyd will help also.

​I can see your point. I also can see that with Ozen's 14 returner starters making the playoffs last year it really did a lot for those kids confidence after watching the program go through years of turmoil.

School boards are there to make policy and oversee the financial security of the district. They are not there to run the day to day operations. They collectively hire a Superintendent and that man or woman then makes decisions deligated to them by district policy. When hireing a new Coach a list of applicants is gathered and then interviewed, the list is shortened and finally the Superintendent makes a request for action presenting his choice to the board...the board should be behind their man they picked to run the District and not attemp situational or micro-management.

I'm with you on this one. As it is now all you need is a 5 yd pickup and you are within range of most decent HS field goal kickers. I believe you should have to pickup at least a 1st down before you get into scoring range.

Congratulations to Mr. Davis and son. This chapter of life complete and on to the next. I made that ride with my son 17 years ago and it was one of the best times of our lives.
