    If I remember correctly, before they started playing the 6 man championship in Arlington, Shotwell in Abilene was the destination for 6-man. Maybe they would play it at Shotwell for old times sake....

    OldBuc77 got a reaction from Bootleg in A Little SETX football history- SETX state champions in the PVIL   
    Instead of being productive at work I came across the PVIL website. I've always thought the PVIL was an important yet overlooked part of the football history of SETX and thought some of you might be interested in this. I knew PA Lincoln and Bmt Hebert had won PVIL state championships, but I didn't know how many or when. The PVIL website listed the state champions in football from 1940-1968.
    PVIL State Champions from area towns 1940-1968:
    Livingston Dunbar: 1A 1953, 1A 1954, 1A 1958 (state finalist 1A 1959)
    Baytown Carver: 2A 1955, 2A 1958, 2A 1961
    Port Arthur Lincoln: 1949 2A (co-champs), 1953 3A, 1955 3A
    Orange Wallace: 1A 199, 2A 1954
    Beaumont Hebert: 3A 1959 4A 1966
    Galena Park Fidelity Manor: 1A 1957

    Records are relative. Kind of like coach of the year awards. Usually go to a coach who's team either won state or at least made a deep playoff run (there have probably been exceptions). The real coach of the year was probably some coach that no one heard about ,at a school no one thinks about, that didn't have squat to work with, that took a team that should of gone 0-fer or maybe a win or two and went 5-5 or 6-4.....
    I'm sure plenty will disagree, but some might agree....

    Basketball is THE sport in Nazareth, always has been. Nazareth boys have won state a few times, but their girls have won more high school state championships than any team, in any sport, male or female in the country. Last week was number 22 if I recall correctly.

    Congrats Mustangs on a great season! A lot of people just wish their team had your record this year and over the past four seasons...hold 'em high....The winning streak might be over, but it will take more than a loss in the state championship game to put an end to the run of great seasons.

    I've no skin in this game. Have no opinion about what a combined school should be named....that's the people of Beaumont's  business. 
    That said, I thought I might a contribution based on the suggestion of hurricanes in black and silver:
    Logo:
    Silver helmet, Black outline of Texas, Dot (or make it a star) from the logo at Beaumont, Hurricane symbol around the dot (or star)....
    I'm not tech savvy enough to make a helmet and put it all together

    I do cringe when I see what seems to be a default 40 point win prediction every time the Mustangs take the field.  Last year is last year and it seems like those that make those predictions are expecting Jack Dallas, KJ Miller, Mo Joseph, Jeremiah Shaw, T Brown and others from last year's team to pop out of the Mustang inflatable.  They won't...they've graduated and are on to the next phase of their lives (which all of them seem to be doing real well in).  Cornel Thompson realizes that, Eddie Dyer realizes that, Mike Pierce realizes that.   It might be time for some of us to realize that.  Last year's team and their accomplishments will go down in the annals of Texas High School Football History.  It probably won't happen again in our lifetime, it might not happen ever again.
    So when I see Eddie criticized for not doing things on offense that the Mustangs did last year, I find that patently unfair to him.  Jack Dallas and Chaka Watson are two different young men.  There are parts of the offensive playbook that he opens up for Chaka to execute that he would have never dreamed of asking Jack to do.  By the same token, there are parts of the play book that he would open up to Jack that he would never ask Chaka to do.  Why?  Not because one is any less of an quality quarterback than the other, but because they possess different skill sets which lend themselves to different parts of the Mustang playbook.
    Would I like to see some of the same things as last year? Of course.  But the current personnel package needs to have plays called that fit in their skill sets, not the skill sets of Jack or KJ or Keion or Jeremiah.  And last Friday painted the Mustang's offense further into a corner.  I don't know of any team that would be able to lose the services of their starting quarterback and expect the offense to run smoothly.  It doesn't happen in the NFL, it doesn't happen in the NCAA and no, it doesn't happen in West Orange, Texas.  Tyrone Wilson will do great things when it is his turn, but to expect him to at this point to do the same things as Chaka is just as unfair as expecting Chaka to be a carbon copy of Jack.  And to expect Eddie Dyer to call the same plays for those 3 different young men is the height of stupidity.
    The end result is that the Mustangs won, just as they have done for every week that they have played since the middle of 2015 for 37 straight games and 14 straight playoff games.
    Now that is not to say that I don't believe the 2017 Mustangs are a top notch ball team.  They are on a path to play for a 3rd straight state championship.  All I am saying is that there is no need to blow a gasket and demand wholesale changes in a great coaching staff because they aren't beating teams by 30-40 points!
