Yes, briscoe will no doubt be the better QB once they both reach their senior year, but is he better than Foster now, to give them the best chance to win, NOW. That's the question. 

Defense is set. Them boys are good. 

Both scrimmages were against run heavy teams and the Tigers defense did do a good job of stopping it. Now, PNG is a very balanced team and will test our Tigers secondary. Oh, the smell of fresh cut grass and the roar of the crowd. 

Live quarter: 
Newton - 4 possessions 4 TD's
LCM - 4 possessions 1 field goal
I liked what I saw! 

That kids situation was totally different. He didn’t try to transfer somewhere else. He was having personal issues. He is now playing JUCO at Tyler with plans on joining TCU. 

The article by Adam Coleman in the Chronicle does a good job of laying out the sides, except for the coach at North Forest, who declined to speak.
He doesn't come off looking to good. 
By all accounts, Demas is making better grades at Tomball and is in a much better situation.
Coaches shouldn't have this power. The district and state committee failed him.
And if it was for athletics, I would feel the same way. Parents should be able to do what they think is best for their children.

The academics are much better at Tomball. If it was about football, he'd go back to North Forest. He said he's not. 
As he is a minor, he can't decide what school he goes to, that's on his parents. The coaches and UIL should have nothing to do with what a parent wants to do in regards to with his child.
HISD is a disaster and the sooner the state takes it over, the better. 
He'll be fine at A&M.

Briscoe will have his chances I'm sure. Good luck to both him and Foster. 

Briscoe is the better qb hands down. He just needs to get his feet wet a little and he'll be fine. 

You may be the delusion fan in this situation. Lol

I was just trying to stir the pot a little

Lmbo:  No I wasn’t. I’m 47 years old. Thank you very much. Just get your facts right. 

See you back here in 4 weeks. 

I have covered Newton's playoff runs for the last two years all the way to AT&T. I would never count the Eagles out especially before the season has even begun. Do they have holes to fill? Of course they do! Who doesn't?
Newton has been so dominate the last two years that players who were down the depth chart have gotten valuable playing time, not just in the regular season, but deep into the playoffs. Players who will be seniors this year have played over three years worth of football in most of their two years in the Eagles varsity.
20 regular season games and 12 playoff games. You can't put a value on that much extra practice time and experience. Will they be as good as the last two years? Maybe! Will they go undefeated? Maybe! Will they win a third state championship? Maybe!
With less than a month until the start of summer practices all the questions will soon be asked. Will Silsbee or WOS or Gilmer beat the Eagles? Only the games will tell, But is a 3A D2 team loosing to a 4A D2 or a 3A D1 so bad? Bigger schools are supposed to loose to larger schools if all things are equal. For years no teams have really wanted to schedule Newton in pre-district play. This year when the Newton coaching staff had every reason to believe that their team might be down due to the loss of so many players look at their pre-district schedule.
I watched Coach Johnston on the sidelines while his father was in the press box for most of the playoff games last year. His defense will continue to be stout and the offense still has plenty of weapons. Greg Neece will be missed, but good coaches move on every year and the best programs continue to stay at or close to the top.
I know this is just friendly banter and it will mean nothing once the lights go on and the games are played. But one thing that can't be measured is the heart of the players who just might want to give one final parting gift to their beloved fallen coach.
Just a thought and my opinion... 

Camps and 7 on 7 is not a determiner of greatness. I personally think the kid is over-rated. I am impressed on the hype. Any kid can go to these combine-camps and look good. I'm going to wait to see what his Varsity years look like. 

That's to he determined.  We'll revisit this in 4 years...

Yea. Martin is better with a basketball than a football in my opinion. Silsbee have a couple upcoming freshman that looks good in years to come. Kids get coached right. A state Championship is in Silsbee’s future. They have one upcoming freshman who other schools trying to get the parents to move him. Kid already being looked at by a D3 school. He keep grinding he has the potential to be a good prospect. 

Juniors in their program have practiced for 12 weeks of playoffs the last 2 years. 3-4 practices a week equals 36-48 more practices than regularly scheduled. That stuff matters. Losing a coaching legend matters too, but watching his son coach in the state game was pretty impressive. 2019 should be interesting for the Eagles. 

He is originally from Newton. His wife is Rhonda Williams. They both have coached at Burkeville before. He was the track coach at central and BU. 

Maybe Silsbee would have beat Cuero if it would have been raining.  They play better in the rain.  Lol. 

Only if it rains. 

Anybody know if that was  the Gatson kid, if so I'm disappointed to hear that.
 

We don’t move up freshman very often. Newton has a very good defense returning . Slyvester 6’5 230 is the top recruited player in Setx. ,Watson,Gulley & DT 6’2 260 Clark all have FCS offers. Offense returns two big lineman Burnaman led the team in pancakes last season and Amburn 6’5 290. DB/WR Seastruck (Caught game winning pick is returning , him and RB Fowler return both have FCS offers. Nate Williams takes over at QB, he has good speed and has a great arm , brother of Noah willians 2017 state game mvp on offense . Nate is a Baseball star and has great accuracy throwing the football, got a lot of work during regular Season, Also plays DB. Newton did lose the star freshman RB that showed promise during playoffs( moved to Galveston) but Dillion Brown is a Freshman , brother of Tamauzia. 

Barlow for offenseive
