PlayActionPass

I'm reading on Smoaky where this scumbag assaulted a Soccer Official LAST year.......he should never have been allowed to play any sport again, so YES, punish the school as well.........

Amen
I think a forfeit is in order.

Yes punish the school number 1 it’s a TEAM sport they could have stopped him but didn’t. Number 2 like previously put he did it a soccer match last year and turn around and did it again. Obviously he has anger issues or any issues that you listed above that are greater than sports... get him the help he needs before returning onto a field. Obviously they neglected that once already. So I agree punish the school entirely. Fire the coach. Send out a message. UIL better if they want to keep referees and recruit more because there is already a shortage in the state and this incident won’t help them out any if the punishment is light. 

In some places the Coach would be fired on the spot, and rightfully so.
If you aren't coaching it, then you are letting it happen.
Ultimately, the behavior of any player, especially on the field of play, is the responsibility of the coach and a direct reflection of the coach.
 

True enough.  And it inevitably happens every year.. for some districts, the picks will come out and I think to myself how ridiculous it is.  Only to blame political correctness, parents, and small districts.  Oh well.. it never changes and likely won't.  I applaud the schools that try to do it right and congrats to the kids.. because they can't help it either way.
I can't help but think back to not too terribly long ago when very few teams were "successful" (playoffs) in districts that were much larger and very few kids got accolades.. making it more meaningful.  But that's just me.  Rant over.

8 pages for a 2 win team means died down pretty quick?
Carthage’s head coach doesn’t want to commit to anything til after State...

Still amazed that people actually think just because you run a variation of the SPREAD that you can't be a smash mouth, physical, downhill, ball control, power running football team. 
 
OH, and God forbid you actually throw the ball. I know some of you thing the forward pass is sacreligious.

Even pop Warner teams throwing more. Speed is evolving.... kids are different now. A shotgun based formation is just more successful usually in today's game across the board I believe. Some people are stuck in the 90s

So very true. Do those coordinators have to deal with:
1. Community and athlete "buy in"
2. Limited resources
3. Average to below average athleticism
4. Lack of commitment
5. Small, inexperienced staff
etc........

Double tight dead T

It's laughable to think that a coordinator from LT or WL would make the difference.  You mentioned two schools that have kids with unlimited resources and a community that NEVER has to discuss what kind of coach is needed to make the difference.  Literal D1 athletes and future pro players.  Plus.. I'll bet good money that their coordinators would rather stay where they are than take on the head gig in a historically failed football program.

Two-time defending state champions don't go down easily, especially when they have the two-time defending offensive and defensive MVP from those state championship games still on the field.

Might have a chance? One common opponent right> Coldspring?
Huntington 34    Coldspring 26
Trinity 8              Coldspring 48

He played, Huntington did a great job shutting down the inside run. and sloppy field conditions didnt favor the trojan run game.

Coldsprings most dominant player went out in the first quarter against Tarkington and did not return.

I agree 100%! (Except for the go pirates part...)
😬

In my own humble opinion, if a parent is not comfortable allowing their child to participate in sports, then they shouldn't allow it...same for attending school, make other arrangements. The idea of a "one size fits all" solution can't be the answer. People of all ages accept some level of risk in their everyday lives. Educate yourself on the risks and mitigations and proceed accordingly. The politicization of this virus is repulsive. If you aren't comfortable allowing your child on the field, then dont allow it...you're the parent. You make the decision to keep them safe, whatever that looks like to you. The most important aspect is that you should have the freedom to choose. Go Pirates!

Lets hope so.  The way HS sports is now most kids want to play ball no matter what sport they're playing.  The more kids a school signs, chances of more players coming out increases.
Look at BC for example, labeled a baseball school because so many kids just play baseball because they have a chance of playing at the next level. I'd be willing to bet if BC got all of the baseball kids on the football field they would be better. Side note, Johnny Dishon and younger brother both played football at BC, 1 went to LSU and the other to Ole Miss for baseball. BRING BACK THE MULTI SPORT ATHLETE AND ATHLETICS WILL BECOME BETTER.

Not a single coach has ever won a state championship without talent. It just does NOT happen.

Mic drop.  Next topic. 

Not a single coach has ever won a state championship without talent. It just does NOT happen.

I'm glad we agree.  Even the greatest of coaches need other factors other than their coaching ability in order to win a title.  Or.. most people would agree with that. 

Thoughts on this?
