Actually, no it's not.  Quite frankly, between monitoring game venues for the girls basketball playoffs, and scores for boys basketball, boys and girls soccer and the opening day for girls, I had not even had the opportunity to see who the new folks were.  There were just issues regarding Coach McGallion personally and others causing racial issues.  Pepper asked me if ANY topics were out of bounds and I'll tell you what I told him.  Topics regarding the position are fair game, but they will be monitored closely.

So 22-5A teams have to drop a non-district game and 10-4A-I teams have to add a non-district game.  Oh, this is gonna be interesting.

I think you'll see most teams just drop week 3 if possible.

While, I appreciate you taking up JD's case, there is really no need for that, either.  Dontre worked extremely hard over the summer to craft himself into a dual threat QB.  Those that recall the 2014 Tiger season remember him having to leave the lineup on passing downs because he wasn't accurate enough.  That truly changed in 2015 as he became a quarterback, not just a running back taking the direct snap.

Apples and oranges.  When Coach DuBois' departure was discussed, there was little if any mention of personal interactions with (and more specifically the personal distaste that some revealed for) Coach McGallion.  Moreover, there was not a racial element introduced into who should be the successor of Coach Dubois.  But if those are to be kept out, it would be unfair just to have those who think Coach McGallion hung the moon, so it was a decision, made BY ME to take the thread out of circulation.
That may leave some people unsatisfied, but that will be the way it is.
I wouldn't worry, we are just a few weeks away from the deadline for applications and I am sure that the opinions of who should be HC/AD will be flowing like water. But for now this discussion in done.

Kennedale will be Week 6 in Nacogdoches.
Week 5 has yet to be filled.

No. Then again I don't look at a person's skin color, only their heart.

Here's the irony and the sad shape of the country that we live in.... Posters say that "you can't win without black athletes"...  but that is a racist statement.  The fact that the poster doesn't even realize how racist and marginalizing his statement is indicates a very small-minded approach to a very big world with a lot of complex ideas.  The posters have no problem, however, recognizing implied racism in a statement about building low income housing to attract better athletes.  "They" must mean minorties, and therefore the statement is racist, according to the simple-minded.  If you have a problem with the insinuation that building low income housing will attract minorties, then you should also have a problem with the statement about needing black athletes to win in SETX.  I think the argument about "needing black athletes to win" is just as stupid as saying "black athletes don't make good QBs..."  
To further illustrate this point, the Silsbee coaching thread should be mentioned.  A poster mentioned how he felt the next coach should be a "person of color."  That, in and of itself, is just as racist of a statement as somebody saying they "really need to hire another white guy."  However, the small-minded racist will justify one statement at the detriment of the other because of  his own personal beliefs... at the end of the day, both statements are racist.  They really need to hire the person that is going to be the best at properly motivating the kids to win the most games possible.... whether he or she  is white, black, or spotted.

Beaumont Central 82...PNG 49...Final

Besides the update on officiating, is there an update on the varsity score ?

In the land of the blind, the one eyed man is king!

Beside the point?  Beside what point?  You asked me how many state champs are in that list?  0, nada, zilch in that list will be able to post up on a sign post or paint on their stadium that they won a state championship this year.  That may not fit into your narrative, but fact is fact. 
And you pose a different question to attempt to fit into your narrative, but guess what, you don't fare much better there.  Of the 61 schools on the list you posted a WHOPPING 6 (that's right, about 10 percent of the schools on that list) have managed to win a state championship since the 2006-2007 season (I believe that is the time frame you asked for).
To Go-rilla's question, I certainly would not purchase a membership in such a work out facility.  But there is a difference, that is a decision I make WITH MY MONEY!  A school board member or administrator has to make do with the money provided to them and must do so for all of the children in their district, whether that child is a star football player or a child which is just there to get their diploma so that they can go on to college.  You see, ECBucFan has it right.  The priority of a school district is to educate.  I think that because we come to a site which is devoted to only part of the high school experience, we lose sight of that at times.

I don't know.  I heard that there was a school in Southeast Texas that has a football stadium that was built the same year I was born (1968).  They still play on grass manufactured by God and they don't have one of these exploding video scoreboards.  I do understand that in late December they did make one upgrade to their facilities...
A shiny new state championship trophy.
Although money helps, you can't always buy championships.
