  1. CS wanted it early in the day for their kids. CS wanted to flip for the time so Rusk countered with 6 am and CS said no. They settled on 7:00pm without the coin toss. Just setting up to meet for the coin toss started the disagreements.
  2. They left out the part about CS insisting on a 10:00am Saturday start. We graduate on Friday and our kids were wanting to go to “project grad”. Not friendly is an understatement. This game is going to be very interesting
  3. I guess y’all should have done some chest beating after the first two rounds.
  4. FYI. You guys only get 1 last “scrub team” in this playoff run. After this week we are going to see, as you said, how good Bellville really is. 9-1 in 17 4A ain’t easy, as you will soon find out. I really do hope y’all make it to the finals.
  5. Lol. Why not? All I’ve heard is Rusk shouldn’t be ranked so if we beat anyone I’m excited!!! We are the 4A Cinderella story. I’m sure now that we have to play the actual good teams it will end so I have to brag while I can.
  6. The “over ranked” Eagles of Rusk push their win streak to 10 games. Thompson 7IP, 0H, 1BB, 13k, 3-0 Shutout in game 1. Cirkel 7IP, 1H, 1BB, 7K, 3-0 Shutout in game 2.
  7. Diamond Pro/THSB 4A Top 25 (Apr 25) 1. Sinton (24-1) 2. Boerne (25-3) 3. Corpus Christi Calallen (20-6-1) 4. Argyle (22-3-1) 5. Celina (20-3-1) 6. China Spring (21-7) 7. Longview Spring Hill (23-2) 8. Sweeny (22-4) 9. Bellville (20-4) 10. Orangefield (21-1-1) 11. Canyon Lake (21-6) 12. Corpus Christi Tuloso-Midway (21-5) 13. Texarkana Pleasant Grove (17-9) 14. Andrews (17-6) 15. Stephenville (16-7-1) 16. Midlothian Heritage (21-5-1) 17. Rusk (11-12) 18. Needville (20-4) 19. Aubrey (19-7-1) 20. Geronimo Navarro (17-9) 21. Livingston (15-3-1) 22.

  8. So you’re saying the left is right. I didn’t peg you as a libtard.
  9. Mason Cirkle doesn’t get much attention behind JD but I would give him the ball against anybody. There aren’t many #2’s better in my opinion
  10. I’d be thrilled if the one that lost showed up but I’m expecting the other one. If things go well for mine and yours respective teams we could be looking at a “rubber match”.
  11. Top two pitchers did not play pre-district (surgery and injury) #3 pitcher/short stop broke his leg in the summer and has been limited on the mound and not played in the field. Top two are back and are finding their groove. I expect the short stop/#3 will be close to 100% in the next couple of weeks and back in action. This group has 1 goal and could care less about the rankings. As everyone knows it takes a little good fortune to win the whole thing so I’m not about to make a prediction but we are playing our best baseball right now and that’s exactly when we wanted it to happen. Two big games this week against a very good Jasper team so it should be fun.
  12. I make the assessment by playing all 3 teams in the conversation. Jasper has a really good defense and so does Bellville. We played Carthage at home, Bellville at a neutral site and Jasper in Jasper. You can call it whatever you want but from what I saw playing all 3 teams Carthage is better than Jasper defensively. It’s not an insult to Jasper or Bellville. Most people who have played or watched Carthage compare their defense to the 83 Dangerfield defense. Regardless of where they rank all time it is the best defense we played against this year.
  13. We definitely had an uncharacteristically poor night catching the football especially early in the game. We started the year without a viable running back and our best option was dismissed from the team week 5. Against good defenses like Jasper and Bellville it put too much on our passing game especially the O Line. We knew going in against Bellville we needed to score every possession to have a chance. The score was more of a reflection of Reese and Briggs explosiveness than anything. We would have several good plays on defense but one mistake and they can take it to the house. I don’t remember a series that they didn’t have at least one play of 30 plus yards. Those are killers for a defense. We played a relatively clean game offensively against Carthage but they play such sound defensive technique and are so fast at every level that you rarely get many yards even on good plays. They are not as good overall as they were last year but they are better defensively. They will need to play their starters all four quarters, unlike last year, but I don’t see them losing to anyone.
  14. It’s definitely irrelevant. We, Rusk, scored 14 on Carthage in the first half. Jasper’s defense is not at Carthage’s level. Every game is different. Jasper and Bellville are equally good defensively.
  15. GAME DAY!!! Luckily the new shoes we ordered for our defense have arrived.
  16. I would imagine every team that plays Carthage will feel like the played their worst game all season. They don’t give up many points and even fewer yards. Definitely a hard nut to crack. 14 points is a good night against that defense.
  17. And if our game with Carthage would have ended at halftime we would have won 14-7. The talent at Center is rarely an issue. Playing up to their talent is the problem. Once that starts happening Center will be a powerhouse
  18. Center definitely played a much tougher non district schedule. There probably is very little difference between Rusk and Center. Even the slightest difference can have one team sitting at home 1-9 and another playing in the second round of the playoffs at 9-2. Every little bit matters in Texas HS football I guess.
  19. I don’t believe we have anyone on the team as fast as Briggs or Reese but we do have a lot of speed on the team.
