What a surprise. I saw this coming last year. Program is under a microscope.

We have always had good players. Our kids play with a huge heart, you may not see in alot of teams.

[quote name="SteelerCzy" post="888006" timestamp="1288106088"] IMO the Pirates can compete in this District IF they learn how to play as a TEAM.  The players who have repeatedly made the same mistakes since week one, poor tackling, carrying the ball loosely causing turnover, not covering receiver by using poor technique etc, etc., should be accountable.  I know these problems have been addressed in mtg's and practice but the coach doesn't fumble the ball nor does the coach miss a tackle or not cover receivers, the players do, someone needs to step up and be a leader on this team, something that's lacking on this years Pirates.  They can compete in this District when they learn to play as a team and correct those previously mentioned correctable mistakes. IMO [/quote] Good post agree 100%

[quote name="HoopInsider_Cooper" post="887834" timestamp="1288074137"] [font=Courier]Tidwell won't be coaching much longer.  [/font] [/quote] He knows what it takes to win. Tidwell will a great A/D, if people will stay out of his business and let him do his job.

Evadale will have a very good team this year. Good size,speed, talent should go far this year.

[quote name="Clsof87Pirate" post="887569" timestamp="1288055040"] Bottom line. Deweyville is smallest school in district. too many one way players. not enough team speed to match up to bigger schools. In my opinion they took Deweyville out of the frying pan and threw them in the fire when they moved them out of the district they were in. There is some good talent on this team, as with teams in the past. But playing tougher non district games is not the answer. Dont think coaching is the only problem either. Playing tough non district games only gives you more pre-district injuries,from playing bigger schools. Deweyville was only eight kids from dropping down to 1a. Thats where we need to be, and thats where we can compete. Took Evadale to the wire, they are in top ten in texas 1a. They will probably go undefeated in their district for the second year in a row. They would not make the play-offs in our district either. Not because of coaching, or schedule, but because of their size and lack of team speed. Same as us! Not much you can do about it either, its what your delt, when you have 40 students to make a team. my 2 cents anyway. [/quote] What in the heck does this have to do with a "undisciplined player" Nothing !!!!!!!!   They are put in this district because the schools are smaller.  The old district would be a nightmare for us right now. That is where the LARGER schools are. Go look at enrollment numbers in that district. We have competed before when we were bigger and faster as I recall 4 or 5 years ago. Back to back playoff for the Pirates then. They were a very "disciplined team". I wish nothing but the best for the Pirates.

[quote name="JMcShan" post="887257" timestamp="1288036021"] SETX Administrator you are garbage, and so is BC!!!!! [/quote] Ban this guy. We do not want someone like him on this site.

Should be a great game to watch. Both teams have fire-power on offense. Good luck to both.

Bottom Line "undisciplined playing" Is the Head Coaches problem. It is he [b]who can put a stop to that[/b].

Hussey is the Lamar running game from what I have seen.

Special teams are bad and not getting better. I am just saying with good coaching you will get a little better each week. The Lamar punter did a great job I thought.

TAPPS started yesterday Oct. 18th and what a day it was!!!!!!  I saw a few tater tots come flying on the floor.

Newton 38 Hardin  28

WOS have mercy.

Evadale 38  Burkeville 8

He made the plays for K-ville when they needed them. I thought he was the difference in the game.

It has been great to see all the communities come together. Maybe we adults should follow our kids more often.They have lead the way on bringing everyone together. I have never been more proud of our young people.

I think that anyone that has helped in this time should be thanked not put in the fire.I would like to [b]thank everyone [/b] that has done anything with the Garrett Fund. Yes, My wife and I have gave to the Fund.

[quote name="sportster" post="862544" timestamp="1285952948"] Sorry, but I don't like the wording of the thread--makes it sound like they already played and Woodville won.  [/quote] Is this guy for real?

Not so fast my friend. WOS will be ready to play.
