Call me crazy, but QB1 from Huffman should be mentioned in any conversation regarding the best athlete in the district. I've seen that dude play multiple times, and he is legit!

Comfortable would describe me also. No need for me to brag. Who is there to impress? I believe that everyone receiving SNAP, welfare, and Section 8 housing should reapply and be reevaluated every 2 years. I’m sure lots of these claims are for children who have out grown the benefits. The cradle to grave industry has to stop. This shutdown has shown just how many people the government controls. Sad, ain’t it? I raised my family. No one else did.

BH may be starting Mr. Wells at QB this week! I think the kid is. Much better QB than Barrier. This is BH’s game they just have to execute

I’m waiting for PNG and Ned to move to the same district as SOC next. 😆

UIL is unpredictable. 🤷🏾‍♂️ Map comprehension isn't their thing sometimes.

I see the point of intangibles that most recruiters look for. But just cuz a kid can run fast or weighs 300 lbs doesnt exactly mean they dont need instruction. 4.1 speed that cant catch, who teaches him? Or they dont and they just hand him the ball. Or put him at QB and say make a play. Thats what bad coaching does. Good coaching will make sure he's able to be a productive member of the team. Society too

It’s like Bam Morris, RB for Pittsburgh, got pulled over and cops found 6 lbs. of weed in his trunk. Morris’ response, “That ain’t mine”. Did they believe it belonged to someone else? Lmao.

Going with da Hill!

We will plug in a freshman #33 for RB.

Which came 1st? Chicken or egg? I tend to think the athletes have to be coached to achieve D1 or 5 stars. Look at the recruiting here at WOS before and after the coaching change. Night and day difference. Sophomore all district then nothing the next 2. WRS nominees? Jefferson should get there this year.

Traded a 7th round pick for LB Logan Wilson (Bengals) Traded a 2026 2nd round pick, 2027 1st round pick, and Mazi Smith for DT Quinnen Williams (Jets)

If Dayton is down their top 2 offensive players, it won’t be much of a game, let down or not.

Crazy what a couple footballs games can do… last year everyone was singing what a great hire because the PNG win, doing well and very close to a Home playoff game and top of the district… this year people are questioning it all…. If next year Nederland gets back to the old ways there needs to be a lot of I’m sorry letters written… but until then support the athletic program..

Of course no one on this post has said that, but if you were to look back at posts during the playoffs for the last 3 years, especially when they played PNG, there was several people on this site and others saying disparaging things, and insinuating that SOC coaches weren't good coaches and they were only winning because of " All of them D1 players"

Well, I have made mention in past posts dating back to the beginning of the year about the QB situation and my concern about the speed of the game regarding Barrier. I feel Wells is just a 1/2 beat faster in his decisions and release and from 3a to 5a is huge, imho. I mean no ill toward Barrier because he's doing all he is able, I just feel Wells operates at a different level. My biggest concern is his size, though. Anytime he breaks the line of scrimmage or is sacked, I cringe hoping he can just pop-up. But, that kid is a gamer and I have not once seen him shy away from a hit. That said, I hope and think BH will beat WB.

Many schools will wait until the last minute possible to send them in. So you'll see most pop up on November 7.

I'll correct. It's 1548.

You have 1548 on the other thread.

That's where the experts are.

Liberty Hill will be moving up so their Admin wont be at the UIL making sure they can avoid PN-G any longer.

He’s the left-hander from last year’s PO game against LP? If so, I thought he had a live arm. Wondered why BH didn’t start him & let him develop instead of going the other route. Then, they’d have had an experienced QB for next year. Instead, they got a rented free agent.

Where’s my ‘ignore button’ on this forum? I have one on the other app…

Another playoff season for the Bucs which is several in a row, however they will probably be 1 and done

Actually the emails bounced lol

Yes he is. I talked with three head coaches in this district and all believe #0 is the best athlete. The one game I saw him play (vs. Lumberton) he looked really good.

Warren leads or is near the top of the district in interceptions, fumble recoveries, punt return yards, punt return TD’s, kickoff return yards and is 5th in all purpose yards overall. He’s pretty dang good.

Houston Wisdom vs. Houston Chavez (some of my old players have a chance to clinch a playoff berth for Wisdom, first one for the school since 1979!) and a few of my friends are still on staff. Saturday, we play Randle. So... yeah lol

I tend to agree. I got WO-S by a couple of TD's.

Nothing is for sure here anymore. One wrong move and its all lost. I do expect to see a heavy dose of #4 and the blue lights flashing more than a few times. Injury free so both teams can go into the playoffs healthy.

I haven’t seen the first person say the SOC coach or coaches don’t know what they are doing… probably never been said unless it’s someone who doesn’t know what they are talking about.

Same and yes, i picked my Horns in the pickems. It may not be smart but I have to cheer on the upset.

HF at WOS

Definitely have to win out,I’m happy with a good size bowl victory to be honest…this was actually the down year(Arch learning curve)imo

Hopefully this coaching staff will get the Bulldogs going in the right direction I have noticed much fewer personal foul penalties under the new staff. That is a plus The only post or part of the post I disagree with is the one about being competitive in most games. The Dayton game is the only loss where they were competitive The other 5 losses were blowouts minus the West Fork game and West Fork had no business winning that game

I can speak on this because I've been on both sides of this. Lcm is going on their 5th straight winning season. Producing many first(s) in school history since 1956. Are the kids any different? NOPE. Guess what the difference is and it took place almost immediately. Groups either buy in or they don't. And I KNOW nederland doesn't have a lack of athletes.

Shepherd has to win by 16 or more along with an HF loss to have any shot of a higher seed of 4th. 9-3A DI Crockett at Fairfield Crockett in with a win or a Teague loss.

Three easiest places to coach from... the couch, the bleachers, and the internet.

There should be a $500 dollar limit per month on “food” benefits. The kids get two meals per day at school, so there would only be a need for one meal per day plus weekends. Some places even have summer feedings for kids. The benefits are meant to keep people from starvation, not enjoy snow crab legs. If there wasn’t so much abuse, these programs would work. I personally believe it is a joke to think some of these people are employable. They have no job skills and they could possibly break a nail. Entitlement attitudes would surely be grounds for early dismissals.

It doesnt help when you are in a district trying to buuld a program with (last year) the defending state champs. The quarterfinalist in huntsville, and a couple of tough programs in Montgomery and MLC. Then this year with a solid PNG team, Montgomery team and then a couple of teams that are right there similar to you. Then you have injuries and lack depth.

Some teams look to Todd Dodge to hire coaches. Vidor lets Mathews with a career record of 117-124 hire his best friend DuBois so he can build up his retirement, Ugh. Now the Buna coach with a great record of 2-16 is set to take the reigns after DuBois leaves. 👍👍 two thumbs up VISD and Jay Kilgo. Great job guys

The M3 Band competed in the Peabody HS Battle of the Bands in Alexandria, LA about 3 weeks ago. 1st place Dance Line 1st place Flag Line 1st Place Large Band Division Congratulations to these students and staff.

Poverty has become a choice for people. Many are eager at an early age to go sign up for their benefits instead of trying to make themselves employable. They choose that path.
