  1. Are you asking about the fans or the coaches and players? Coaches and Co. probably don’t care. The fans would definitely prefer indoors, but make no mistake: they’ll show up either way.
  2. The NDN Press broadcast hit 7,075 viewers at it height. And understand, that means 7,075 screens playing the game. The number of individuals watching each screen was likely much higher.
  3. Welcome back to the site! No need to apologize for the long post. I’m the king of them. Type away!
  4. Guys, I hate to break it to y’all, but there was a huge mass of PN-G fans watching the game while standing on the concourse between the upper and lower levels behind the top row of the bottom section. A few dozen empty seats on extreme ends of the stadium does not equate to fans not in the stands. The PN-G radio crew confirmed the sell-out at CE King with stadium staff in the pressbox. There were also small pockets of PN-G fans who sat on the visitor’s side with Lake Creek because they were redirected there by stadium staff after the home side sold out. By the way, while we’re at it, the reason we’re playing at Berry Center next week is because Liberty Hill’s head coach refused to agree to anything larger and was willing to force a coin flip between any site chosen by PN-G and Liberty Hill’s home stadium. We didn’t want to risk it. And I have that directly from someone who was involved in the negotiations.
  5. It was confirmed that we sold out CE King. Doesn’t look like very many empty seats to me.
  6. I want to share a story from last year. After the game, my folks and I went to the Whiskey Cake in Katy for a very late dinner. I had driven in from Leander that afternoon and they had left PN-G late due to work. Nobody’d had the time to eat beforehand. There was a family in the restaurant from Liberty Hill sitting a few tables down from us. They had a little girl with them, maybe seven or eight years old, and an older boy who appeared to be late middle school or early high school age. I figured he was a player on the freshman team. That little girl realized we were from PN-G and gave us the evil eye for the entire dinner. I’m talking a full hour of this girl glaring at us from across the dining area, non-stop. You could feel the heat coming off this girl’s gaze. I had to fight not to crack up all night because every time I’d look over to my left, I had the possessed girl’s hellish stare from the exorcism movie looking straight back at me. You could tell the PN-G crowd, the War Chant and Cherokee had driven this poor girl insane that night. Her parents picked up on what was going on and came over to talk to us after they finished their meal. Couldn’t have been nicer folks. Wished us luck in the championship, complimented the fan base - just nice, small town people. I told them I lived just down the road in Leander and drove in for the game. Even for a fan base like Liberty Hill’s that generally travels well, you could tell they were shocked that out-of-town alumni would make a drive like that to see the Indians play. This is the game where our fan base earned the “rabid” label online last year. Every time I think about that, I think about that ferocious glare from that little girl. I have a feeling I’m gonna feel it coming across the field at me again this year. Scalp ‘em!
  7. That's going to be one heck of a traffic jam on 610 around 4:30 PM.
  8. I’ve got some ideas. Depends on who we would be playing. Gotta get through this week first, though.
  9. One thing I appreciate about Huntsville: like PN-G, this is a program with a lot of history. That’s kind of been my thing lately. 😎
  10. PN-G did everything it needed to do to stifle the SOC offense in the first half. SOC changed the gameplan in the second half and started throwing the ball around a lot more. Remember, up to that point in the season, SOC fielded a rush-heavy offense that hadn't been forced into the passing game very often. Any time PN-G tried to adjust to SOC's newfound passing game, SOC would go right back to running the ball. It was good coaching by SOC to keep the PN-G defense off balance and it worked. With the amount of talent SOC brought to the table, every coach in the state would be hard-pressed to find a way to make fourth quarter adjustments for that move.
  11. Clock control is the cornerstone of the Joseph-era PN-G offense. Running on every first down is a big part of that. And it’s especially emphasized in the second half if we get up big on the other team, as we were at halftime against Lake Creek. I’d say it’s working pretty well for us.
  12. Classy letter. Always proud to see a community rally around the kids, and prouder to see the coaches appreciate it.
  13. PN-G received the link this evening and will post all of the information tomorrow morning.
  14. Thursday would actually work better for my schedule. (There’s a hint in there for the #txlege folks I know are watching this site. 😉)
  15. What’s the story there? I keep hearing references but I don’t know the background.
  16. Seriously? He’s a sophomore QB who stepped into the role after a star senior with D1 offers was hurt in the third game of the season, and he’s managed to guide his team through three rounds of the playoffs and counting. He has a strong arm, strong numbers and a great completion rate. That’s why. Vote!
  17. [Hidden Content] At time of posting, PN-G’s Connor Bailey is in third place. Barbers Hill’s Kody Fuentes is also a candidate.
  18. Nothing changes except the crowds start to swell in size and the atmosphere gets even more intense. To the posters out there doubting the impact the Indian Band, the Indianettes, the Indian Faithful, and the other spirit groups have on the field, just ask the players and the coaches. Better yet, ask the other side of the field. They’ll all tell you. See y’all tomorrow night. Scalp ‘em.
