Cougar14.2

Just went back and watched that Shadow Creek vs CE King game from the second round last year. King had SC down 40-14 in the third quarter before they really got off the gas. King dominated SC at the LoS which makes me a little more worried about our game with them since they’ll be even better on the defensive line this year. Look how much bigger than SC they look in the trenches once the game starts. I think Katy and Summer Creek will probably replay it in the regional final in 6A-D2.

Who verified what disinformation I spread about BH and what was it? I don’t really think people in BH wanted a coach who didn’t want to be there. I’ve already said it was a joke in response to another poster’s comments. As far as this BH obsession thing, hopefully this helps. I work in Baytown. There are people who have kids that attend school in East Chambers, Anahuac, Dayton, New Caney, Dickinson, St. Thomas, etc. Bunch of geography is covered at the coffee pot. The highest percentage of people’s kids attend BH though. In 15 years I’ve only had one other co-worker who’s had a kid play varsity sports at Crosby. Right now alone I have friends that have kids at BH who play varsity football, basketball, baseball, softball and even soccer. BH fans love telling you how good their programs are so they generally dominate the majority of all sports conversation, plus that’s where the majority of them live. I’ve been to softball and football playoff games to support their kids and they’ve driven all the way to Dallas to come support Crosby because of me. Doesn’t meant you’re not going to still talk trash and take pride in beating each other. I would like to talk football too so I think a good place to start is with saving all your “quality of life” posts. Tell us about the quality of your offense instead.

For the people who’ve seen already I was wondering if PNG’s offense looked more like Katy’s or SLC’s? One place PNG has been well above average lately is on the offensive line and I think they could be a real factor in 5A-D2 with a more Katy-style offense that highlights that. I would imagine being at SLC so long that’s probably the route though? When PNG had success with RJ it wasn’t because of how great of a passer he was, it was because they could control the game on the ground with his running ability. Morse, Crippen and Bost are all better passers than he was. It sounds stupid for me to say after losing a game 72-69 but I never thought PNG really benefited from lining up and trying to play basketball with teams that had better athletes than them on the outside. You see BH was able to beat FB Marshall last year because of how dominant their offensive line was. Very interested to see how Coach Joseph uses PNG’s personnel versus what Faircloth saw. On the PAM side of things I know they have to replace a lot but it still feels like they should be two or three scores better than a team they’re superior in talent to that also has a head coach making his debut. I know with it being somewhat of a rivalry game weird things can happen but if PAM is going to win the 10 games I think they can this year then they should probably be able to take care of PNG relatively cleanly.

If nothing else BH should get a good test at the line of scrimmage. Outside of Myles Jones I can’t think of a notable high level recruit Magnolia ISD produced that hasn’t been in the trenches lately? A lot like A&M Consol. and Magnolia High, they’re also going to be some of the bigger kids you’ll see at the 5A-D1 level. Very interested to see what the BH passing game looks like without Herndon and that offensive line this year.

Listed measurables for CE King’s defensive line/edge players: Dylan Spencer(Texas) - 6’4” 240lbs Kam Bizor(Colorado) - 6’2” 235lbs Jo’lacey Bernard - 6’4” 265lbs K‘mard Kimble - 6’2” 306lbs Jolaison Landry - 6’3” 240lbs

These boys don’t really look like the pushing around type:

👍🏾

Lol, the ladies that make the coffee for those guys at the regional director level actually make more than me so I’m not even qualified to bring them coffee.

I don’t think Crosby is even on the success level of Westfield or Manvel yet, much less those other two. Don’t mistake me being able to talk about my team in depth for making them out to be something they’re not. It’s not my fault you don’t know the difference between the students with the million dollar addresses that go to Lamar and and the kids that live in apartments in The Heights.

What/who is DA? Not only did we not get pushed around, Myles only got pressured on ONE drop back which he would’ve ran away from in a real game. My son missed a cut for a 50 yard TD on some beautiful work by the offensive line, instead he gets met at the line of scrimmage by the big d-end, puts the forearm in his chest and drives him five yards down the field. On the defensive side I think Lamar had one positive carry. We had two sacks and two other TFLs. Lamar is right behind North Shore in the Houston area in terms of NFL players produced over the last 15 or so years. For whatever reason they especially produce high level defensive backs. When D1 caliber kids are standing on the sideline talking about their teammate getting “routed up by the white boy” you know Braden Womack’s release game was clinical. I’m pretty confident Crosby would’ve touched Lamar up by two or three tds in a real game. One thing for sure, we wouldn’t have looked near as bad as I heard y’all did against Shadow Creek.

Yes, “LAST YEAR’S VERSION”. Not the state championship version or any other year. LAST YEAR’S version. Yes, I’m comparing the PERSONNEL that Crosby has THIS YEAR to the personnel and style of play you saw from College Station LAST YEAR. I have no idea what’s hard to understand about that?

It doesn’t have anything to do with the comparison of the programs win wise, I’m talking about the makeup of the team from a personnel standpoint. Jett Huff was a senior QB coming off a good junior season and had good/experienced weapons in the outside, nothing great, but sufficient. We have Cyrin Myles who may be even better. They had a great 1/2 punch at RB, in almost ever interview Coach P has talked about the importance of his two running backs. College Station had a great defense last year and it was led mainly by their LB core and that main LB was Jaxson Slanker. Kid played at an elite level throughout the playoffs. Crosby’s best position grip on the entire team is its LB core and we have two kids better than Slanker, one already receiving an offer after his freshman year. Crosby’s best win of late is beating Liberty Hill to make it to the state finals. Who cares who beat y’all in relation to anything to do with Crosby?

Oh ok, Heights and Lamar are two completely different teams with two completely different levels of accomplishments. I didn’t mean to give you one then. They beat Lamar once in 10 years. You shouldn’t ever take one teams vs another results in any relation to your own. For instance, BH played Crosby a lot closer than PNG did and still lost convincingly the next week to them.

Exactly, which is no different from the high income zip code teams letting you know how many state titles they have and how comfortable their life is. The trash talk from the SLC fans to the Duncanville fans before they get blown out is legendary. As far as Crosby stopping the run, I know that’s somewhat of a “running” joke among the top tier teams in the state but I can promise you were getting closer. Last year’s version of College Station making a “run” in 5A-D1 region 2 gives me hope.

When did y’all play them last? Lamar played for the 6A-D1 title in 2012 and lost to and Kyler Murray led Allen squad. They’ve only lost one district game in the 10 years since then and none of their non-district losses have been to BH in that time period. Lamar produces the highest level dbs in the Houston area as is evident from the recent names like Holton Hill, Anthony Cook and Deshawn Jamison to name a few. Not to mention NFL All-Pro receivers like Josh Gordon. Lamar is top 5-7 in terms of personnel in the Houston area EVERY year regardless of record. *PS - I know @BHFAN is getting Lamar confused with Lamar Consol. but he’s not @Separation Scientist so he gets a pass. I don’t think he is anywhere as naive as @Separation Scientist is about football

Oh ok, I got you. Taylor is still going to be the team that makes the playoffs from that district over Strake Jesuit though. SC isn’t really a D1 factor in the Houston area in D1 yet, they’re not on the same level as a North Shore, Atascocita or Ridge Point yet. They do have better personnel than anything BH would ever see in 5A-D1 though

Shadow Creek is in the district with Pearland and Alief Taylor so they’ll always go D2 until Manvel moves back up to 6A. You’re absolutely correct though, whoever wins the third round game between Shadow Creek and Katy will play Austin Westlake for a chance to go to Dallas.

It was originally scheduled to be held at Sheldon ISD Stadium, it’s been moved to since then though. Most outlets still have the original schedule time and dates

SMH, Manvel about to get beat down by a bunch of ex-Manvel kids. Crazy that this will be their first ever meeting. Going to be one of the special environments in Texas on opening Friday if the weather holds up.

August 26th at 7pm from The Jungle in Crosby, TX Huge test for Crosby right out of the box as CE King comes to town with some momentum after their best season in 30 years. They went 10-3 losing to Katy in the 6A-D2 regional semis last year. You can pretty much say after the graduation of their two stud running backs and the transfer of their starting QB to New Caney, that CE King lost all of its offensive production from a year ago. They do have a couple of very solid returning receivers though. The Panthers picked up a QB transfer from Atascocita and an edge/DE transfer from Houston Yates who’s currently committed to Colorado. Opposite him will be 6’4” 240lbs Texas commit Dylan Spencer. A lot of people are saying CE King should have one of the best defensive lines in the state this year, I guess Crosby gets the first chance to test them. Will Hicks is a physical P5 level safety on the back end but not committed anywhere yet. From the Crosby side of things it’s just going to be about not getting dominated at the line of scrimmage. You should expect to see a significantly better pass rush from CE King than the one Lamar had but the o-line’s performance against Lamar gives some optimism that we’ll still be able to hold up. I think we’ll execute a lot better to open the season this year than we did in the opener against Carthage last year, and even the next week at Manvel too for that matter. One the defensive side of the ball I think things are less concerning. We’re going to give up some deep shots because we don’t have elite corners and if your QB can run it we’re probably going to get gashed a time or two from taking poor pursuit angles on a pass rush but overall Crosby should be very solid defensively. I think that unit should do more than enough to keep us in the contest Friday night. Crosby is going to be very good at some point this year if we can get healthy and stay there. The only two questions are when will we be good and will it be good enough?

I think this article highlights some good points about Crosby this year. I think our performance yesterday, limited as it may have been, reinforced some expectations for the season. We missed some things that were there on the offensive side of the ball but that’s somewhat expected early in the season, the execution was still crisp compared to where it was at this point last year. Even with our execution not being as clean we still pretty much dogged out Angleton in a last year’s scrimmage because of guys like Casey, Coop and Strahan doing work at the line of scrimmage. A huge question mark was how we would look in the trenches now that all of those guys are gone and I think Crosby has a sufficient answer. Crosby’s o-line coach is legit. If we’re not going to get pushed around by Lamar at the LOS then you’re talking about only a handful of teams that have the capability in 5A-D1 to do so. If we can get all the way healthy and stay healthy we may be on to something this year.

The Crosby vs Lamar scrimmage got called early but I think Crosby fans should be optimistic. Crosby held up very well in the trenches on both sides of the ball considering the personnel lined up across from them. It’s going to be all about staying healthy this year

That’s the issue though. You don’t know anything about football so you NEVER post about it. You spend more time on this site scrutinizing my post than telling us anything useful about BH’s football program. I post all types of information about Crosby football, the PA guys are in this thread posting about their squad, there are a couple of Baytown guys who have provided some analysis but nothing from you all offseason about BH. I think that’s because either you don’t know(which I do know for sure) or people just don’t talk to you? Crosby fans talk, everybody from Aledo to Texarkana and from Port Arthur to Port Lavaca know that. It is what it is but for whatever reason you in particular seem to have real complex with it. I “attacked Abseck”, I went on a “rant” about TW? Come on dude, for someone who has such a great life you sure do complain about a bunch of myopic issues. I think the only thing comparable to a 12 year old is all the whining you do.

No real surprise here as Myles gets the preseason nod as the top signal-caller in the Space City area: [Hidden Content]

I mean, you would think that there weren’t 11 other teams on their schedule last year
