[quote name="panamamyers" post="872956" timestamp="1286890301"] Needs to build a 6th junior high school out by GCM somewhere. They could then designate two junior highs for each high school. This willy nilly system they have now puts all of the high schools three years behind. It's like the USA basketball team trying to get a team together and compete against those other national teams that have been playing together since they were 12.  They could have the new junior high and Highlands go to GCM.  Baytown Junior and Gentry go to Sterling and Horace Mann and Cedar Bayou go to Lee. I've never understood the logic behind having a little bit from each junior high go to each of the high schools.  They gain nothing by doing that.  They lose three years of being able to learn one system in sports. Let's assume Gentry has a good 8A team this year.  Does it really matter in the long run?  Out of the 30(hypothetically) on the team, 10 of them are going to GCM, 15 are going to Sterling and 5 are going to Lee.   So, you just have to start all over in 9th grade. It's the same way with every junior high.  25% go to one high school, 15% goes to another and 60% goes to another.  Play with the percentages all you like as I am just guessing.  And Lee would probably lose out the biggest in this system, because Horace Mann is not a factory for good athletes.  Doesn't matter.  I would rather someone in Baytown have a chance to build a good athletic program.

No, jayhawk.................... It is Topeka

The Coogs came into Stall Worth Stadium seeking its first win of the year as they took on new District 19-4A running mate; the Baytown Lee Ganders. These Coogs were tired of there losing ways and were prepared to do anything by all means to ruin the Ganders night. Above is the first two sentences of your first paragraph. Take notes, listen up, and you might just learn something. Stallworth is one word. The stadium is named after Dan Stallworth, former coach at Baytown High School. The Coogs were not seeking "its" first win, they were seeking "their" first win. The semicolon is also used incorrectly. When using a semicolon, you must have two independent phrases, one on each side of the semicolon. The word "these" is a demonstrative pronoun. If you use "these" you should not use the antecedent of the pronoun (Coogs) as the next word. Also, it is "tired of their losing ways", not "there losing ways." Lastly, you should not use three prepositional phrases in a row, which you did in the last eleven words. That is just poor, poor writing. I have pointed out many mistakes in just the first two sentences. It is too painful for me to read further. If I were your English teacher, I would fail you on this article. In short, it is horrible.

Colmesneil  1-2 Hull-Daisetta   1-2 Lovelady  1-2 West Hardin  2-1 West Sabine 3-0 [/quote] Have ya'll seen West Sabine, I had a chance and was impressed. 1-A ball is just as good if not better watching than the big schools. These kids are big and fly to to ball all over that place. I'd like to see these kids up against one of the small 3- A school. They could compete and maybe beat the ones I've see in the past. [/quote] Hull Daisetta will play Tarkington this week

Barbers Hill has been twice, and did not lose either game. tied Sonora in 1971 to garner a Co-Championship Beat DeLeon in 1976.

For those of you that are lifelong residents of The Hill, you should know that those are throw back uniforms. They wore the stripes back in the days of glory, late 50's early 60's. Perhaps the uniforms represent a return to glory. I remember those style of uniforms.

[quote name="rschuldt" post="828515" timestamp="1282404463"] I am not trying to be sexist or anything, but it is extremely rare to see a female athletic director. Usually it is the head coach of football or something like that. [/quote] She's not really a female................

[quote name="BHtheHill" post="792466" timestamp="1271803102"] Yes it is confirmed, The Hill will be running the MultiBone offense next year. It will be a different style of football & hopefully the coaches and kids can adjust and be successful with it. [/quote] It was confirmed the day they hired Coach Gage

[quote name="eagle65" post="788879" timestamp="1270961713"] joe evans deserves to be in the hall of fame. a very good coach and a better person.  i am proud that he coached me in jr. high.  best of luck to him and son andy. [/quote] I also played for Coach Joe, both in Jr. High, and later in High School. He is the reason I am coaching today. I can hear him today saying: "Get with the program!"

American Lindsey Vonn was stripped of her gold medal, won in the downhill, today. the Gold medal was given to Obama. It was determined by the IOC that Obama is going downhill faster that Vonn did.

Perhaps the young man from GCM suffers from Hexadactyly.

[quote name="bh89-2" post="753065" timestamp="1265047392"] [quote author=bh34 link=topic=64943.msg752691#msg752691 date=1265033684] I'm not concerned as much about our defense, as I am our offense. I was in one of our local restaurants, and over heard two guys talking about how great our offense was going to be next year. I'm glad everyone is pumped up, so am I, but I can't figure out how we are going to run the wishbone, when we don't have any real running backs? I just don't see any big, fast, powerful running backs to make the wishbone successful. Plus don't we need three or four of them? Then where do we get a option QB? Does anyone know any of these answers? I'm excited,but a little nervous also. [/quote] I have seen small backs, with small O-Lines run it effectively.  If you have good fundamentals and block well, the formation allows for the defense to have one guy or more out of place and creates a one-on-one in open space with the lead runner.  More than size, speed and athletic ability can help.  Not saying a Clay McWilliams blocking out of the backfrield would not be nice, but you can run it effectively without size.  Liberty Hill ran a version of it, they called it the "Wing-Tee" and they did very well.  They were not a big team at all, just ask Jasper who played them the year Jasper went to State. [/quote] Liberty Hill runs the Slot-T, not the Wing T. They are two different things, and both are far different from the Wishbone.

Semi Finals? ha ha
