lol this is like when they tried it on the DeSoto coaching topic

Bro, I'm not at work 24 hours a day. Bro, I'm not breaking news, I put a tweet up in a thread that seemed like it would be useful for. Thanks for being concerned with what I do with my time though.... bro.

Nobody said he wasn't at Central.

the sun can give you skin cancer but you go outside don't ya?

Speaking of PAM QBs, I just saw that Kadon Harrison just switched from QB to WR at UL

Not that it was expected to be Peterman anyways, but he got named the head coach at Brewer in Fort Worth. I'm real curious as to who PAM will hire.

Not sure if anyone else saw this yet, but Grayson Padgett hit a walk off home run for Houston against San Diego in the 12th inning. Said in interviews and tweeted pretty much that he did it in Blain's name. Pretty cool story in such a tragic time for the Padgett family.

That wasn't quite what he said. He said the family wasn't willing to relocate. That makes more sense in my eyes if that was actually what was said. FSU went after the UM WRs coach but I think the wifey helped put the clamps down on that. So he's still in Coral Gables.

WOSGrad, I respect your opinion on that and everyone else who feels the same way. But at the end of the day the coach has to win. It won't matter how much he can help unite the community if the team comes out and starts 1-5. Fans will be united in complaining about the team's struggles. I'm not saying he will do for sure struggle, I hope he succeeds with United. But just from being on the outside, I haven't seen anything that shows he will.

If Todd Peterman applied for United, I'd have to imagine he applied at PA Memorial. I think he'd be a great fit there.

I was wondering the same thing

Not surprised that Tony did that well at the combine. He's always been that type of athlete. Idk how he will be as a cornerback/nickel back, but he definitely earned himself some money just bc of his athleticism and special teams prowess.

Just heard about this from one of my old co-workers. Wow that's sad. My best thoughts, prayers, and condolences with the Padgett family and the Rice/H-J community.

Meh. Lots of people have said that in regards to the team they play/coach for. Not many of them had their homes washed away due to natural disaster either.

Purple & white takeover

It was my opinion that Kenny would have probably left PAM earlier if not for his son being in high school when he was. I will say, I give the school board and school district credit for sticking with him through that rough two-season stretch right at the end of them being in 6A. Whoever gets the job next will have a ton of talent and a heck of a fan base lol

I like the idea of one color from each of the old schools. Timberwolves, meh. Beaumont United, meh. But if that got the vote then a lot more people liked it than didn't. The basketball team should be amazing. And so should the band. Might look like Bethune-Cookman. Football team certainly won't lack for talent. But moving up to 6A will be a beast. Best of luck to BUHS!

I’m not sure if you were expecting him to torch the place on the way out, but I don’t think he was gonna do that. I didn’t know he’s still without a house. That may make it a bit easier to move, I don’t know for sure. But I have to imagine that’s a factor. Maybe increase in pay, better facilities, who knows. But he wasn’t gonna be negative leaving in my opinion.

Seems like the carousel around there has been slow so far. Only one I remember seeing is Kirbyville. Now there's PAM, what about the CentrOzen school? Should be some interesting hires.

Again, don't play yourself. Neither team needs the other to be successful in their given classifications. To top that off, the two teams just played a two-game series not too long ago where Newton won a game where they were huge underdogs. They decided not to play WOS this last cycle and whether I agree or not is irrelevant. But they've already played other times when a win wasn't assured (a win is never assured playing WOS anyways).

Newton will reload just like they usually do and just like WO-S does. Don't play yourself trying to prove a point.

If that’s what you think and that’s what you took from what I said, ok. But you said DeSoto was like that Rams. I gave you numbers to say that’s false. The Rams were a mediocre team that was made good. DeSoto was a contender that went the next step with Peterman. DeSoto was nowhere near struggling like the Rams did. That’s unarguable.

Not at all like the Rams. Mathis won double-digit games 5 straight seasons before he left DeSoto. Then Peterman went 6-6 in his first season before winning state the next year. He took them over the hump but to make it seem like he rebuilt the program is not accurate at all.
