I dont think I was wrong. Crosby gave Carthage a much better game than Marshall would have.

somebody appears to not be in a very good mood   lol

think carthage found their qb

Shame so many players will be out.  Carthage having to bring quite a few jv players.  Any other coach would have canceled the game but as scarce as games are, Surratt knows the players need the work.  And to bury a friend earlier in the week, he has a lot on him.  

Coach Surratt was a pallbearer few days ago for a covid victim and the football team has apparently been hit with cases.  I'm hearing they will be short manned but looks like the game will be played.

So.... No excuses if Crosby wins. Glad to hear. 

We're just curious why you are a Carthage hater.  

somebody needs a psychological evaluation

Carthage schedules the best competition they can pre district not for bragging rights but  to prepare for a title run.  It has become more and more difficult to find teams that will play.  Don't know why Crosby agreed to this 2 year deal but we know they thought they had a pretty good team last year.  Guess that one wasn't played due to a storm.  

Aledo you love to bash Carthage.  Why is that?  You continue to troll any thread that references Carthage.  Who is playing up in classification in this game and who is playing down?  LOL.  Carthage has always tried to play up in preseason but it has become increasingly difficult with their success.  How many 6-A teams does Aledo play?

• Surratt would rather win by 3 and work on some things than win by 28 and not get the work in on things he wanted to work on.  Not saying he doesn't want to win every game but he will plan the season with the only objective of winning another title.  You will be deceived if you look at games and scores before playoffs.

When’s the last time a Carthage kid that was decent went to Tatum? Don’t Carthage recruit Beckville hard? Seem to remember hearing something along those lines. 
 

 

Well maybe I missed something but I was just pointing out what schools are in the county.  My kids could have gone to either Beckville or Carthage.  Carthage, Beckville, and Gary interchange kids all the time.  These are small schools.  Gary doesn't even have football.  Move in's  are almost non existent without some prior connection to the area.  Best jobs in the area are either oil/gas related or at a nearby coal mine.  Global warmers have all but destroyed those.  

Tatum, Beckville, Elysian Fields, Gary, and Carthage.  What other district am I missing?  Tatum and Elysian Fields pull from Harrison County as well.  

Shane Capps.  Think approx. class of 1995.  Around 40 doesn't sound that old to me.  His son qb couple years ago.

THERE TIME IS ABOUT TO END LIKE SO MENY OTHER GOOD STRONG TEAMS ACROSS THE STATE CANT STAY ON TOP FOREVER 

They will be strong for at least another 5 years.  Surratt won't leave before then.   

Carthage population has always been pretty static.  

well whatayaknow, ole aledo man again showing his carthage love.   HaHa

Which teams and what years?

Think I remember reading a post from you talking about Carthage being infatuated with Aledo or some such mess.  Sure seems like you are on this 4-A D-2 site talking about Carthage a lot.  

If Crosby is still scheduled to meet up with Carthage next fall, where will it be?

Will Carthage meet up with Crosby next fall and if so where?

He has moved around quite a bit with his kids.  One was qb at LaVega last year and another was qb at Gilmer some years back.  The shooting got quite a bit of news coverage at the time of course.  

congrats huffman.  bout what i expected.  looks like carthage scrapped together a team with half a dozen defensive secondary players off the football team.
