  1. That change would be an injustice to the Senior players on this team.I watched the Lamar scrimmages and certain QB could barely field the snaps cleanly.If done, put the frosh QB in there and build for the NEXT coach if there is a team by then.

    I think maybe you play Heights, Dobie, Deer Park, etc., someone of that caliber. You need to play someone that’s bigger and more athletic than you in the trenches to get a real test of where you’re really at and playing up is the easiest way to do that. You can play someone like Kingwood or Humble but they don’t have the coaching you need to face. I’m not sure about last year but I think this year it’s going to benefit us from having that game on the schedule. 
     

    We played mediocre even for this being our fist time out under the new staff. That being said we would’ve beaten a WHOLE bunch of teams tonight who didn’t have personnel the caliber of CE King. Not sure that would’ve been a good thing because it probably would’ve given us a false sense of where we really are/were. 

    Since the scrimmages and non district games are the choosing of the previous head coach all we can do is debate what we think is better or worse.And since injuries play such a huge part of a teams success,we hope our depth can counter the loss of time the kids must spend in the trainers room. I think with the additions of transfers this year,Crosby will be OK in this department.

       I had thought before reading about the loss of the Langley twins that the Cougars would beat King because of the lack of returnees at King.Their ability to reload put a damper on that.The QB,if a sophomore, will be a good QB in the future.I received an emergency call and had to leave the game,so the second half I can't comment on.I was impressed with the heavy hits by Crosby players.The crowd acknowledge the good ones.

            Hope the 2 players mentioned with injuries make a quick return .Broken Collarbone will take weeks to recover so carry on Cougars.I'll be there to cheer you on at Hall stadium next week.

    Not sure of the times and can’t go anyway, but BH heads to Manvel tomorrow to scrimmage Shadow Creek with 6 teams! BH has 3 Freshman teams and 2 JV teams this year. Abseck building! 

    Any news on the BH vs Shadow Creek scrimmage ?

  4. The team played a 6A team that went 2 deep into the playoffs last year.Lamar returns 33 this year with 8 returners on offense and 6 on defense.Crosby returns 17 this year with 5 returners on offense and 4 on defense.With these numbers the scrimmage was an OK showing for Crosby.More impressed with the defense showing, which is normal with a change of coaching and only 4 returnees.Transfers Evans and Birks had a nice start to the Cougar defense.Offense is always behind the defense, it will take a little time to adjust to the new scheme.They will probably not go up against a better Defensive line as they faced last night until the playoffs.

                  The pieces are there, we'll see if the coaching staff can mold the team into a playoff bound team.I think they will. On to C.E.King next week, another 6A team with playoff experience.

    Thats a wide range. If BH is closer to 2200, they stay 5A. If its 2300, likely 6A. 

    Either way everything might change the next round after that. 

    How many do we need to move in this area to get rid of these guys ? I got some Nephews.Can you tell I'm bored ?

    Ummm, what you just explained about the NC QB is a violation of UIL rules and could cause NC to have to forfeit those wins if it can be confirmed. I hate to break it to you, but "believing in yourself" only gets you so far. Learning how to fight through adversity, compete no matter the circumstances, and adapt to a changing environment is what will help the kid actually succeed in life beyond football. I know the kid your talking about, and he's not D1 material and certainly not pro material. So what has his dad really gained him by teaching him to run away from adversity and take the path of least resistance? 

    Because of open enrollment, your assumption there was a violation I believe is incorrect.Another QB from Clear Brook transferred to C.E.King with the notion that the Senior Qb has transferred to New Caney,and being a Junior he would be at King for 2 years.He found out another transfer was at King and he would not beat him out,so guess who was the starting QB at Clear Brook last year.None other than the young man who left Clear Brook to go to King,couldn't win the starting job and scampered back and started the 1st game. 6A must have a different set of transfer rules ( Open Enrollment ) than 5A.I know this story because I live in the neighborhood  behind   Clear Brook high school.There was a loss of participation at Clear Brook when he retained the starting job.
