So obviously your philosophy is a coach can never take credit but should always get the blame. Got it.

This. You can coach a player up all during practice and still get blamed for a player's mistake.

I think it's how one plays defense. For example: Back in 1993 Silsbee played Nederland in a non district game. Silsbee running back Jay McGuire ran for a school record 454 yards rushing with 6 total TD's. He had over 600 all purpose yards in the game. Nederland QB Spurlock passed for over 350 yards in the game. Silsbee won the game, 48-44. Several weeks later, Silsbee played Nederland in the playoffs. Silsbee played the game without their star RB McGuire because he suffered a season ending injury the week before. Silsbee decided to change their defensive philosophy of zone coverage to man coverage and blitzed just about every down. The result, 10 sacks of the QB and two INT's that led to a 34-7 Silsbee win. It's not the offenses IMO, it's how you play defense.

Thanks

I was catching flack from some folks (including some Memorial fans) for having the Titans so high in my rankings early in the season. Have had them #2 behind North Shore for several weeks now.

Agreed. I had Carthage winning 42-14.

My point was Cardinal making a very general statement about any team with a player scoring 50% or more of it's points is not a good team. If he had stated a team in particular, then maybe I could understand. He still stated that Silsbee was not a good team last year. I disagree.

Please refrain from bashing coaches. Forum rule #18 18 ) The bashing of any particular coach, player, referee, etc will not be tolerated. This includes issues involving their personal lives, coaching/playing style or performance, past experiences, etc.

What was final score?

Early December when he will be back.

Just too quick a turnaround from playing football last night.

72-46 Bridge City

Seriously doubt Silsbee will get much from the football guys today. It's a noon game and those guys didn't get back from Nac till after 1am this morning. Memorial will take this one against Silsbee JV

So Silsbee, who reached the regional tourney after winning the district that your beloved coach coaches in, was not a good team. Is that what you are saying? Never heard of a team that wasn't good to win district and make regional tourney. That's a new one for me. Might want to check your credibility.

7 starters is one thing if it's sprinkled around the team. Missing the entire offensive line is another.

Any team at the 4A level and down loses their entire starting offensive line and two defensive line starters will suffer terribly against a good team. That's no excuse, just fact. If you claim your team can overcome that type of loss, you live in a fantasy land.

That's not what you stated. You said any team that has one player score 50% of it's points is not a good team. You didn't give any caveat to who the player could or would be. Silsbee had a player score 50% of it's points on a regular basis. So therefore by your standard, they were not a good team.

I would like to know this as well. May need to make a wager.

Wasn't that the case with Silsbee last year with Bush?

Trust me, that is the case.
