  1. Yes, that is true. But 9 HR for a freshman is still pretty impressive, don't you think? And just because they don't play anybody down here doesn't mean he won't get some D1 looks. Hemphill had another player who attended LSU and played in the NFL for several years with the Bengals and Falcons. Know the guy personally whenever he comes in where I work we talk sports. He's currently a coach at LSU. So it can be done, but being from a small town does stack the deck against ANYONE, no matter how talented.
  2. I agree. Football is his 2nd sport and we see how he's doing! He hit 9 HR last year as a freshman. Could be a true five tool baseball player. He's got D1 talent in baseball right now in my opinion and will more than likely have the same in football by his senior year, barring injury. I'm going on and on about him and I attended his rival school, West Sabine!!!!!!!!LOL
  3. I shudder to think how many MORE yards he would have if he had the O-line that Gray and Aledo does. This kid sounds like a freight train as he runs by you! Everyone in the stadium(in the COUNTY, for that matter) at Buna Friday night KNEW he was getting the ball and he still went for 475, I believe. Amazing athlete! And West Sabine is a 1A school, for all those that were asking. We had so much respect for his kick return abilities we never punted or kicked it to him the entire night.
  4. I work in Hemphill, and believe me they were chirping about the 18 penalties for 160 yards they got all last weekend. The officiating was horrible on both sides, and I got to see it field level. An example: WS QB fakes to the RB, and the back judge follows the RB and whistles him down, which under normal circumstances would be ok, but the WS QB still had the ball running up the right sideline! Guess it was an awesome fake on WS QB's part, eh? The refs were just HIGHLY incompetent, not malicious, however. You're right about moving on because both teams may have their hands full as WS takes on a rejuvenated San Augustine squad in Pineland and Hemphill travels to Joaquin to battle the Rams and their vaunted Wing-T offense(which, if run right, is awful tough to defend). Good luck to both teams!
  5. That is true, but Lacey also had 175 yards passing in addition to that 200 yards rushing and he was in on 5 of our 8 TDs(2 rushing, 3 passing). And don't forget Williams had close to 250 total yards and 3 TDs as well(2 rushing, 1 recieving). Our yards were spread out over 2 or 3 players instead of having one go off. Both QB's had career nights!
  6. That is so true about the officiating, and the time being kept on the field was a joke! Think we played pro length quarters!!!!!!!! The defense will show up this week, and as for our clock, the last time I seen it it was working! Got people from SA talkin smack about how we can't stop one man! They forget how many times they fumbled last year(10) and they got most of the same players back! We will see Friday night...........
  7. Ok. We'll see Friday night won't we? Last Friday was a fluke and it won't happen two weeks in a row! We'll also see if you all can hold on to the ball, unlike last year (10 fumbles and 2 or 3 int's). And we will also see if yall can stop that one man later on this year. Heard yall's coach has got em goin in the right direction though. Yall didn't exactly beat a powerhouse in Colmesneil, you know.
