We appreciate the support. Go Trojans!

Yes Sir I will be rooting for The Jasper Bulldogs 🎉🎉🎊💗💗🏈🏈🏈

everyone was kinda expecting this after Shelbyville beat San Augustine, this ends up being a game that is pointless for either team , so for WH it would have been another long drive to another slaughter house with a group of youngins that’s all been through the ringer all year , you only got two seniors on the team both are your rbs/mlbs So their basically both beat to a pulp and One of them been playing most the year with a serious knee injury. And as far as Shelbyville it’s a win either way but if they played they’d take a chance of getting someone hurt going into the playoffs. So with all that In consideration WH takes a knee With that being said hats off to All the WH players that’s gutted it out every game knowing what they were walking into and and having good sportsmanship and good attitudes week in and week out! And good luck to Shelbyville hopefully they can go make some noise With Timpson and Joaquin!!

Couple of things. Good for HJ and Liberty. And shame on the other 4. Like i said, based on the facts of this case (as now verified by the young man’s father), the action taken by the DEC is reprehensible. I’ve seen it in the past too often. Men who say they got in a profession for the kids prove the opposite. Or at best prove they only got into it for “some” kids. Once residency is proven, that should be the end of the story. But it’s not because decisions are made “for athletic purposes.” Except not by the kid or his family, but by the school administrators who voted against him. That’s right. They, in effect, blackball a kid for their OWN school’s athletic purposes. Well done hypocrites. Well done.

Most Mustang fans aren't as quick to take to their keyboard as others.

We’re not playing Memorial we’re playing Lumberton.

That’s what happens when the AD is a basketball coach!!!! Hard to get numbers when your head football coach isn’t the AD.

I would play our starters the first half and then the second half let the second-string take over and get some reps pending you have a big enough lead. Try your best not to get none of the starters hurt because these playoffs are going to the RUFF!!!!

You have Vidor’s no offense vs Lumberton’s no defense. However Vidor players are not as soft as the Raider players, so I pick them as a 2 touchdown favorite. That softness is why they are known as the FRIENDLY RAIDERS

You are correct on all counts above; however, if you’re gonna sign up for that job and accept payment for it, you oughta do the best you can. And if the best you have is not that good, go cut yards on the weekend for some extra money.

I was asking why a Coach and a father give up his best player and from reading the earlier post I truly understand and goodluck but if nothing else I will be coming see this kid play.

Ok first off I can see where all these rumors are coming from now and why my son was denied. This absolutely disgusting what I'm reading. For the record my son was purely denied based on transfering for athletic purposes even though letters from myself, my wife, my wife, and his previous schools administrators stating why he left. My son is a 4.0 gpa honor society student who wanted to leave Tekoa because it is a STEM school and he wasn't interested in those fields of study like my other two children who also attended there, my oldest graduating with a scholarship from Motiva to attend Lamar. Jailan did not want to go to school for STEM and that is all Tekoa Academy offers. We do not have the same processes of other high schools as the schedules and curriculum is preset and students do not get to choose their classes or career paths. Jailan wanted to go where he had access to a guidance counselor that would introduce him to other academic options as like I said he's a true honor student! He wanted to be a high school that has school dances, home coming, and prom. He wanted the normal high school experience that my oldest son didnt care for. All this was presented to the DEC along with family history as my both my sons attend HF elementary and my wife and I worked for the transportation department. HF has graduated 3 of my nephews and a niece as recently as last year and currently has my great niece and nephew at the high school and their siblings at the middle school! My oldest son is the one of only two grandchild to NOT GRADUATE FROM HAMPSHIRE FANNETT as my other nephew graduated from George Ranch in Katy. We have live in Cheeks for 14 years, my family owns 5 acres out there that we all live on!!! Stop with the BS rumors and false narratives about my family and son. Huffman, Splendora, Livingston, and Shepherd all voted against my son HJ and Liberty voted in favor of him. It was a collaborate effort between these schools administrators I know it as we had all the proof and they ONLY HAD RUMORS. The papf nor our residency was questioned. I was simply asked about a dang FB post between and another parent about basketball and being asked where my son was going. That was Huffman's proof and was asked about my son playing on an AAU team that he's been on since 7th grade and trains out of HJ! This summer for the first time a HF player was on the team and I was questioned about that one player. Not that 6 players were from HJ and that they practice at HJ facilities or that Clay Davis Jr plays on that team. My son knows Clay Davis and the HJ staff and players just as if he played there. But we had already filed our paperwork for him to attend HF early summer so who he played with in July shouldnt have matter because he was already going to HF. I had made the decision for him to attend HF prior to his sophmore year, didnt move him last year because of his advance math class that I wanted him to take from my colleague and mentor at Tekoa. I am an educator first always! I teach math as well as my wife who teaches in BISD. We hold out children to a high academic standard as all 3 hold a 3.8 gpa or higher. Currently my daughter is a freshman at Tekoa and a freshman at Lamar State College taking 3 classes. Yeah my kids nice like that! So all this bull crap about basketball and athletics needs to stop now! My son works his butt off both in the classroom and on the court to be the best he can be. The notion that he is just some basketball athlete trying to get over or by is insulting to me and my family! We are definitely appealing this decision purely on the principle that I, my wife, my son, and my administration at Tekoa were flat out called liars and dishonest! They also called Dr. Augustine a liar who did a complete background search on my family and went by our home in Cheeks. We had all the documentation and presented it. They call us liars to our face! This will not go away or stand! I refuse to have my family called fraudulent and liars. The administration at Tekoa Academy are extremely upset that they were called liars! So for the little spies and agents that these coward schools have in these forums, RUN TELL THAT! Yes your district "leaders" ignored documents and facts and instead went along with rumors and "heard through the grapevine" news. And yes these people actually used that terminology when asking me questions. They "heard through the grapevine" so their entire case was based on rumors and we had facts!!!! I'm assuming this little forum is part of their "grapevine" as I'm reading some of the same crap that was presented to me. Once again we are from Cheeks, I work at Tekoa Academy, my children attend Tekoa, my son wanted to go to HF to look at other programs so my wife and I let him period!! They are attempting to rob my son of his junior year of varsity basketball behind personal feelings and stuff that has absolutely nothing to do with my son. My son has nothing to do with the other players there from last year or how they got there. HF is his home school, its were his family has recently been graduating from and where his cousins are currently at! Now once again GO RUN TELL THAT!!!!!

After watching the film on this game, I think I figured out what Center's problem was in this game. It was that Jasper team. If not for them, Center would have easily won this game. lol.

Well this could be our last game of the season so I guess I’ll spell it out for these guys. #1 should be getting 10 touches a game out of the backfield, #12 should be getting 3 targets a game. #11 and #26 should be splitting time in the backfield. #43 and #55 should be on the line in short yardage situations. These are all defensive players and that’s why Vidor’s offense is not very good this year.

Dude I get it. I have been through this twice with both of my boys playing college ball. I totally understand the frustration. Its not about the pay is really what I am getting at. People do NOT want to officiate and those that get into it, usually don't last because there is so much criticism on these guys. The film get reviewed weekly, coaches give their writeups, crew chiefs respond, and they try to learn from mistakes. Its really up to that official to give 100% for the kids, coaches and all the parents involved. There are some crappy officials that are collecting the little 100 bucks and dont really take pride it what they do. But for the most part, most of the officials I know live and breathe it and officiate to their best ability. Again, I totally understand your frustration. Hugs! LOL

I have to take Diboll in this one. I don’t think Coldspring’s offense will be that effective against Diboll.

This guy got the 2016 election right. ✔️😄✔️ [Hidden Content]

Gonna be a crazy day tomorrow. Ready to get it done.

My Trojans will have to play a flawless game to beat the defending district champions

I'm still around... lurking in the shadows...lol

I agree. There aren't going to be any easy bi-district games for anyone in our district outside of Carthage.

Love him or hate him, you have to admire how hard he works. Trump did 5 rally’s yesterday in different states finishing up in Miami after midnight. He’s about to start the first of 5 this morning. The man is a machine.

All of that evidence in our own government’s hands and no one does anything until a private citizen forces the issue. Criminal and sinister.

Ltown has been down all year. Big win over Splendora. They’ll be pumped up, and you can bet they’d rather beat Vidor than anyone except maybe Silsbee. They will give 110% effort, win or lose. Vidor better be prepared to do the same thing.

I agree with you as far as the consistency of athletes goes in Jasper. I was really high on Coach Barbay when he came back in 2012, but I don't know that he'll get us where we need to go with the way we play. It's good enough to win a lot of football games, but we should at least be capable of winning every game and we're just not. I think he's doing a good job all things considered, but we need to set the bar higher.

Neither team will have a shot after next Friday at anything but a long bus ride.

Really? A prediction thread for this one?

No sir, they've had low numbers all year and (from what I understand) several of the freshmen parents pulled their kids earlier in the season. That, along with some injuries, and I guess they were just too thin.

I'm gonna dress like an official and enter early as if I'm doing a sub varsity game....lol

I think its strange to say you live in a place for 14 years and call it the wrong name over and over again. I'm from Beaumonts bro.

KWP by 50 still mad😂

Please keep our QB under center! Amazing it took till the 7th game of the season to see that the shot-t every down didn’t work and put us in a must win situation to make the playoffs. I believe that cost us at least one win at the minimum. It’s win or go home now.

It has to be a landslide. This clown biden is a worst candidate than Hillarious Clintonista.

I was responding to previous post.

Thanks for your input Coach Ardion. It is appreciated.

agree also coaches need to take advantage of game situations for instance if vidor is up 30-7 in the 3 quarter they need to practice there passing plays instead of running till the last second of the game. you have to give your team passing confidence if you wand to make a run in the playoffs. i never understood why vidor coaches would keep running the same run plays when you have a opportunity to have live game passing practice. even if they only have three pass plays on the playbook.

Y'all, have great team. I think if y'all do face Carthage again, it would be a much closer game. But that's just me. Good luck

Why would we need JV players? We already have enough capable bodies that aren’t used enough.

Yes. It’s usually the schools who have been the guiltiest who scream the loudest when someone else gets a transfer or two. Ironic isn’t it?

Gee. After reading this thread, I can't imagine why TASO doesn't have people beating down their doors to become officials.

It’s not just setx. I mean who in the hell in their right mind wants to go out there and take that abuse for next to nothing money wise. Those guys can go call peewee games on Saturday mornings and make the same money, and have absolutely no pressure. The bad part about it is it’s only going to get worse.

what a turnaround from past few years...completely different team this year

Yes I saw that we had like 5 sacks or something like that against Crockett

I watched that game and I can tell you this.Newton did not play sloppy. It can be said Hemphill played Sloppy in the 4th quarter. Other than that both teams battled it out. It seems Newton not winning by 60 points every game is playing sloppy? That’s some fantasy but not reality. I guess Newton playing a very good team and just winning is not good enough. That’s ego talking not the players performance on the field.

Good teams can stop a one dimensional offense... every time!

Me and my son have a tradition. This time of year, at the end of the game, we don't leave until all the players are off the field. We stand and wait out of respect, and we cry. We started doing this years ago when my oldest was at Crosby. At the end of season and playoff games, there is always a couple players that stay on the grass as long as the can. For most of these young men, they will never put on a helmet again. We watched young men refuse to leave, push their teammates away, trying desperately to grasp the moment like they are trying to hold on to castles in the sand. Its a big moment, some of the things we love and the journeys we take come to an end. The tide will rise, and the waves of time will reclaim what is rightfully theirs. There are precious things in this life that will come to an end, and many times, when and how it will end is not your choice. I hear ya, "its just football". But I would ask you to take a moment, after the band stops playing and the scoreboard is turned off, stand up and look. Life in all its splendor and tragedy is unfolding before you. It's more than just football.

If I'm not mistaken, WOS tried to play Carthage when they both had the same open week

It’s ok Drummer. It’s me being silly. But this is still between us guys, ok?...
