2019 FOOTBALL TEAM PREVIEWS

SPLENDORA WILDCATS

2018 Record: 10-2 Overall, 5-0 District

District 11-4A-I Champion

 

2018 was a banner year for the Splendora Wildcats as they took home the district title for the first time since 2007.  Head Coach Marcus Schulz and the Wildcats don't expect to wait as long for the next district title as they return a veteran squad (8 starters return on each side of the ball) to push the Wildcats a little farther into the playoffs.

 

Head Coach: Marcus Schulz

Assistant Coaches:  Chip Keel (Co-Offensive Coordinator), Matt Riordan (Co-Offensive Coordinator), Jeff Cordell (Defensive Coordinator), Clay Mayo (Defensive Backs), Cody Inkster (Defensive Backs), Laurence Smith (Defensive Line), Chase Reneau (Defensive Line), J.T. Hatton (Wide Receivers), Jerremy Holliefield (Running Backs), Kody Weatherson (Running Backs), Randy Pope (Freshmen)

Offense:

Eight starters return to the Splendora spread offense in 2019.  Returning to trigger the Wildcat offense will be senior quarterback Cody Thorndyke (2nd team all-district).  Thorndyke will be throwing to a veteran squad as senior wide outs Tyler Gamble (11-4A-I Offensive MVP), Dylan Matthews, and Scott Norwood, as well as junior receivers Jagger Kennedy (1st team all-district) and Cole Goodrum, all return in 2019.  A veteran line also returns as senior Jaylen Smith and juniors Austin Elliot (2nd team all-district at fullback), Trenton Vest and Kevin Jernigan will lead the way up front.

Defense:

Eight starters also return to the Splendora defense in 2019.  Smith (1st team all-district) returns to his defensive tackle position to lead the Wildcat defensive line.  Senior outside linebacker Matthew Owen will be featured on a Splendora linebacker group which will also include sophomore Zane Obregon and junior Andrew Vasquez.  Goodrum (2nd team all-district) returns along with Mattews, Norwood, senior Matthew Owen and junior Andrew Hernandez.

Thx, knew I'd seen that name before, maybe he's the main cog for Splendora success, Pirates were pretty good offensively if I remember correctly.

He was at Shepherd then was hired at Rusk, which he resigned about a month after being hired. He then joined the staff in Frankston and was promoted to HC in 2017 but left less than 2 weeks after the promotion.

Splendora the second time in our district is better then they were. There area is growing from what I hear and probably be back up in 5a. Im looking forward to playing them this year. We should have never lost last year to them.

I'd leave Frankston too to be honest lol. I hope Splendora is able to keep him on staff.

    • Of course Trump’s prosecution is political, but if paying hush money is illegal, then there is no difference.  I’d say it’s more like ham sandwich/turkey sandwich. 
    • Coach Foster and I had talked earlier in the season and he told me this might be his last year to coach but still wasn't sure. Well, he is sure now. It's been a great privilege to cover his teams. I always enjoy watching his teams play. They are always one of the best coached teams year in and year out. But it's more of an honor and privilege to call Kevin my friend. He is just an absolute great man. He and his dad are the reasons I am a big Big Sandy fan. I will miss Coach on the sidelines. Just won't be the same without him. But I also know we will keep in touch and he will be greeting me when I attend Wildcat basketball games. Congrats Coach Foster!!! Job well done my friend!
    • Yeah, I got that but talk about a stretch. It should seem obvious that Trump’s prosecution is purely political. If someone is going to do a whataboutism, at least make it similar.  This is so ludicrous that it’s like comparing a ham sandwich to a wallet.   
    • You consistently try to say Trump ran our debt up and that the stock market and job market cratered during his administration (along with other MSNBC talking points). That is a flat out LIE, and you know it. Not only are you telling a mistruth, you knowingly are telling a mistruth...which is a blatant LIE...which makes you a "(I don't remember what word you used to describe Trump, something like a purse for dirt)" does it not? You know for a fact that the economy, stock market, and job market was thriving under Trump. You know that the Democrats controlled the house, and proposed a budget that would hurt the economy, in which he shut down the government. Even after this fiasco brought on by Democrats, our economy flourished under his administration. Then Covid19 hit, and the blue states shut down the country. YOU KNOW THIS, but continue to blame Trump. You lie...blatantly. Again, what do we call these people that partake in disseminating misleading information. You coined it...that purse thing. Does the shoe fit? I bet it does. It is amazing that you try to put "MAGA people" into this little box for the soul purpose of allowing all negative attributes of anyone that will vote for Trump instead of Biden to be attributed. That is a sickening modus operandi of stupid people. It is hard for me to believe that you would adopt that childish stereotyping. But since you are willing, I'm willing to push back. I'm a Trump supporter. I will gladly vote for him over Biden. So get busy putting me in your silly little box of stereotypes so I can embarrass you some more. You've been shot down by practically everyone on this board when you say stuff like Trump is their Messiah, or that supporters overlook his flaws. Everyone on this board has stated that they don't agree with Trump on much of his behavior, but you ignore these statements and continue with your lies. Oh yeah, since I'm a Trump supporter, those comments were also directed directly at me. So let's go. Prove I'm a simpleton that will ignore all of Trump's flaws and vow to disown the bad ol' orangeman. Let's continue that diatribe you peddle. I now am interested in responding. I also have boxes I can place people in. Whose box is accurate? Better yet, whose box is more embarrassing? I'm fairly certain your box is more entertaining for the board to make fun of. TDS should be included in the DSM-6, or revise the DSM-5 to include it since this phenomenon is so pervasive now. You are a walking, talking picture of Trump Derangement Syndrome. Do you like that box? Can you refute the rationale for placing you in that box. Everyone can refute your rationale for placing them into your irrational box, while you languish in your TDS box.
    • Clinton got impeached because of it. David Pecker said it was true about Stormy today. Under oath.
