SmashMouth reacted to Guitar Man in Jeffery Breaux named OF’s New AD
He is of the younger generation, it pretty much means “serious” but in a macho kind of way. 😂

If it's non-football districts you're questioning, then don't post in the football forum.

It is Capital Murder. If convicted of that crime, the only punishment options are life in prison without parole or the death sentence.
I would say that either is extremely deserving.

SmashMouth reacted to ozens fastest@1906 in How Do You Define an Elite Coach?
After the first 2 and 1/2 pages I thought this would end up a waste of a thread and also my time reading. However I'm glad I read through the entire thread and all post before clicking off. As a coach for the past 20 years both in SETX and now in the Greater Houston Area and being very familiar with the WOS Tradition/ Culture and also the last good playoff runs in Ozen's short history, I feel as though I have earned the right to reply to some of the comments in regards to Elite Coaching and also Talent / Culture and how the state of football in SETX has changed in the past few years.
1) IZZY you know I love ya like a son but the (50) 5-2 defense isn't trash, IT worked for years for the Mustangs because CT "Mastered" it along with his staff who many forget never really changed for years. So when you have coaches who have mastered a specific scheme and when I use the term mastered I mean they know how to make all of the adjustments in the scheme for what ever offenses will try to show em. What worked for the past coaching staff will not work for the present staff because its not them, simple as that!! You can't replace almost 30 years of CULTURE and as a community expect the same results.
2) Talent plays just as much a part as Coaching "ELITE" or NOT.. An ELITE Coach I wont say any names but I will say this, he hired ME and gave me my first HS Coaching Job.. "You Cant Win The Kentucky Derby With A Mule" to break it down for you, You Cant Win A UIL STATE Championship Without Talent.
3) Talent can make an average Coach look alot better but who cares, that average coach still has to put that TALENT into position to win, and also manage all of the talent on and off the field, and most importantly LEAD all that TALENT.
4) What it all comes down to is allowing Coaches to set the culture for their programs, communities providing support financially and proudly supporting that team all year long. Championships aren't won in the FALL, they are won in the offseason and summer conditioning.

More of a combination. Community has just as much to do with it as anything; For instance, PNG's community spirit is what allowed them to spend thousands of dollars to hire Dodge to even go find a great coach. Without the right school board and community, that ain't happening in the first place...
And I'm not a PNG guy, but I recognize one of the finest football communities in the nation when I see it.

SmashMouth reacted to LumRaiderFan in Texas LT Gov Suggest If Colorado Decision Holds, Texas Will Remove Biden From Ballot Because Of The Unlawful Border Policies!
But we haven’t done that in quite a while, and the democrats despise the Constitution and have no desire to be guided by it. I’m not disagreeing with a thing you are saying, I’m simply stating the sad situation unfolding before us, with a good chunk of the folks unconcerned.

Nah. Just cuz there are stupid rules on the books doesn’t mean we have to add more.

Rule for telling kids they cant wear RED gloves if the opposing team is wearing red? No UIL rule for this at all.

I agree.
biden should be eliminated due to his mental capabilities decline

Agree, it wouldn’t help anyway, but we (the great state of Texas) certainly don’t want to mimic the behavior of the likes of Colorado.

No, don’t do it. That is a complete undermining of democracy and our constitution. Just because Colorado has seen fit to break the rules of the Constitution, doesn’t mean that we should all go down that road to be spiteful.

Exactly. I mean, I don’t think there was a resulting problem overall, but you can’t blame that mid county ref calling the PNG game on a shortage.

SmashMouth reacted to spidersal in How Do You Define an Elite Coach?
Too me an elite coach will have these traits
very good discipline and the team makes very few mistakes (non many penalties, few turnovers, a fundamentally sound team in all 3 phases, and a team that plays extremely hard)
assistant coaches that are on the same page, very loyal, highly dedicated, and teach fundamentals very well and have an excellent game plan vs every opponent
the entire coaching staff treats the players well and the team is highly prepared for every game. They also have a tremendous off season program
Even if the talent level is down, their opponent will know they have been in an extremely tough battle after the game is over

No ma’am. It’s smart strategy. Just like an O Lineman grabbing up under a D Lineman’s pads and holding him til he pulls away. Part of the strategy and game. And holding is actually illegal whereas the same color gloves aren’t.

Even more. Let’s say you’re wearing Plain Jane white gloves and the other team’s jerseys are white. Happens all the time.
