Wow, who comes up with these ?  Reggie Branch led his team to the state finals and the only accolade he gets is 2nd team all-district QB.  Didn’t even consider him for what he did as a RB, not even 2nd team. Terrible.  

I agree 100%. Branch was the best overall ball carrier i seen on the field this year. Came up with clutch plays in every playoff game to get his team to the state title game.

Yes. All district teams are voted on before playoffs. Playoff stats and results do not matter.

I understand that, too.  But then how do you put Dunn at Offensive MVP when he only played RB during district, and didn’t make 1st or 2nd team at that position ?  Like I said, they pretty much made sure everybody got a trophy.

Traditionally the MVP's don't take up an all district 1st or 2nd team spot. Also, defensively they have basically the entire Cougar defense on district 1st team or MVP 

Crosby's starting defense has literally 1 starter not on 1st or 2nd team or MVP. 

I guess it just shows how wrong coaches opinions were going into the playoffs. Fuselier is a really good player but he's not Branch or Dunn. That final district loss apparently swayed coaches who likely didn't even watch the film because they had no incentive to. 

Branch second team QB is just silly.

I assume you don't understand how all district works and that is ok. If you are named an MVP in a category that supersedes any first or second team placement in all district. So in fact Dunn being offensive MVP puts him above all other offensive players. Would you just prefer it be called the all Crosby team so you don't have something to rant about?

Has nothing to do with “Crosby team”. I would look at it like this:  If I was fielding a “first-team” from 12-5a, Reggie Branch would be starting on it. Again I understand how they do it but also think that is ridiculous. For example, if a player played OL and DL and was hands down the best in the district at both positions, he can only get awarded for one. Back to my point that “everybody gets a trophy”.  Just saying.

It’s also not a rant. Just pointing out the silliness of how the district does this. For example, how many of those kids on that list will get a D1 scholarship. Branch is committed to one and didn’t even make 1st team high school district. Now how much sense does that make ?

I see kids all the time across the state that end up at a major D-1 school that don't make all team first district. If you put Bost on Crosby with the athletes they have he likely throws for 4,000 yards. You want to talk D-1. Look at what some of these kids did with not even a JUCO level talent around them.

D1 does not care where you play or if you made all district. They look at measurables- size, growth potential, family background (any of your family members play D1), etc... These are things they can't coach.

Bost is first team all district. That was a no brainer selection. Congrats on a great season. Now move on. 😂 Go Dogs.

    • That there’s not a single thread on the fact that the Republican nominee is on trial for paying off a porn star with whom he had an affair while the future First Lady was carrying said nominee’s child.    I remember back when the dirty, no-good Dems sacked Gary Hart over something similar. Same thing with John Edwards and later Anthony Weiner.    But y’all keep pretending God is on your side, lol. 
    • I hear what you’re saying, BUT… that hammers the hell out of poor people and the ones with multiple properties don’t eat any more than the poor ones. In fact, you’d basically just be taxing a lot of peoples’ EBT payments. The government  can’t get ahead by taxing what they’re already borrowing to give to people.    I think well off people should pay more… but the scale as it exists is broken.    For the sake of argument, my mom’s house in Groves is valued at $125k. 2/1/1 on a slab.  Her tax bill is $850/year. Without exemptions, her bill would be 3200. It’s right on JCAD’s website. The problem is this…. If someone tries to rent out an identical house, they’d expect to get, what… $1200/month? If you take into account that homeowners/windstorm/flood is a minimum of another $2k per year, you’d need $5k a year just to cover the taxes and insurance. That’s four months (1/3 of the year) just to cover those costs, not counting a potential mortgage payment. But then everybody cries about how expensive rents are… you can’t tax the hell out of non-homestead property to make up for gifts given to homeowners in the form of big tax cuts. It just doesn’t work.    Ten acres in Lumberton? I’ve got a buddy with 10 acres in Lumberton on HWY 69. Prime property… it’s his retirement plan. Sale it one day and cash in. The CAD decided that it no longer qualifies for a special use valuation (timber) and stripped his “exemption.” His 2023 tax bill jumped from $25 to $22,000…. It’s insane.  
    • I’m curious what happened… they aren’t even in full pads yet. 
    • They’re going to have win almost all remaining games and get finals of tournament to think about an at-large. When LU was in the WAC, Grand Canyon got an at-large after New Mexico St came out of nowhere to win conference tournament. Grand Canyon had a dang good resume that year. It can happen, but resume wise isn’t in their favor.
