LP0175

Their pass coverage again is the weak link in the chain. I sat with knowledgable fans last nite and we discussed the way the secondary does not communicate. Plenty of times the safties would cover the outside half of the field getting over the top of the reciever but the corners would be also playing the outside half leaving the middle open. The flats were left open on several blitzes, the out routes were broken on late. Poor tackling on the two final tds that the deer scored was piss-poor by the dogs. The pursuit was not there.  The DARKSIDE chose the wrong time to "allow light to shine" lol. But seriously I worry about our secondary coverage bc we play a efficent Channelview team that is tossin the pigskin around like backyard ball. If we don't correct this then we are in a world of hurt anday find ourselves fighting for a play-off spot.

Dp gets a fg in overtime.  LP rb Whitley makes a busted play into a gain of 20 yds to set up the offense at the 4 yd line. On the 2nd down LP punches it in on a leg churning run for a victory!! Final La Porte 34 deer park 31

Houwston area game of the week!! Correction: series win loss is La Porte 25 dp 24 tie 1. Great atmosphere...local TV stations here. WELCOME TO THE DARKSIDE!!!!

LP defense is very capable of holding deer offense. The question this year is can LP offense make plays when needed. For the first time in awhile LP offense has questions. I'm confident LP will win

Joebob, I really appreciate the discussion.  Its time we get to the nitty-gritty of what's t really hindering GCCISD football.

GGISD just don't care anymore. Plain and simple. I'm guessing there is no open enrollment @ GCCISD. THEY SHOULD CONSIDER THAT OPTION. [/quote] I understand LP is on the uptick now and Lee is horrible, but didn't Lee just kick yalls butt two years in a row in 2008 and 2009? lol [/quote] I would have to check with my statician! Lol

Just offering a different viewing window: whatever happen to taking pride in your work? The will to make work what is given to you?  I understand that the fans want a sexy offense but if it true that the kids are undiscipline as I'm reading and Coach A has brought in structure then I ask what I really important to RSS?  Most good program have a foundation that win or lose they will uphold it it. I'm not getting that about RSS "supporters".  People who have taking over responibility to rebuilt a piec of crap (car, house, gov. Office, restaruant, vacant lot, etc.) Know its an ugly process to make a swan out of an ugly duckling.  I believe that he (coach) is doing the right thing by taking the heat he is taking and to be fair he CHOSE. To come to a program that has the support compariable to a large junior high. So I don't thinki he really cares what fair-weather fans think. And I don't Blame him. So often a coach is ask to be more than a coach to these kids. He has to be a male parental figure, a counsulor, therapist, best friend and so oh(not to mention he still has to perform his teaching duties).  Just be patient TRUE RSS fans and support YOUR program no matter who is there.  [quote name="joebob" post="1060914" timestamp="1316479614"] I dont disagree with getting rid of the kids that dont have respect, dont come to practice, get in trouble etc...I think he is handling those correctly by having a strict discipline program with basically 3 strikes you are out. Whats crazy is why did it take until now to enforce it? Minyard let the kids run over him with the inmates running the asylum. I do give props to the new guy as he doesnt put up with much BS which should be the case. As for practice, there are a lot of eyes out there and pretty much everyone is seeing and saying the same thing. At the freshman level the parents not happy which bodes trouble for the future of the program. If you lose these kids, and these are a GOOD group of kids on and off the field, then I dont see how this program will ever get going. Most of these kids are very respectful and many are AP students which should be a coaches dream...but if the kids arent having fun or dont believe A)they quit and focus on basketball, baseball, track etc B)They quit and turn into thugs, C) They move to another school, that is what I am worried about. I get the impression that the coach cringes every time Gibson makes a play on a pass because it just feeds the parents and kids into wanting to do it more. Ive watched his reaction and you can tell its like raking your nails on a chalkboard for him. Kind of like the rest of us watching fumble after fumble and  1 yard runs into a stacked 10 in the box defense. [quote author=GCMPats link=topic=88371.msg1060778#msg1060778 date=1316464618] Unless we know what happens M-Thurs, I say we leave the game decisions to the coaches. I like what I see off the field. Right now that is more important to me than W's. [/quote] [/quote]

[quote name="Backwoods" post="1060724" timestamp="1316461759"] This one has been around for a while. I played in 3 DP wins and graduated from DP 51 years ago. We were in 2A then. ::) [/quote] I have one varsity victory over DP. We only played 2 out of the 3 yrs I was on varsity. My senior year we were not allowed to schedule eachother, even for a scrimmage. Its a special rivalry to each community and I hope it continues to grow in fame ( a few state championships will help out in that).
