I know both of these Athletes personally and I will say this about them both! They made the best decision for themselves and for their personal goals. Neither of these players needed anyone elses opinion on the decision they felt was best for them. It completely blows my mind that so many people are so vocal and what a player should or should not do. Maybe we need to have everyone post on their upcoming possible promotion at their job and we can VOTE on if that is a great decision or not for you. If you decide to take it then we will rake you and your family across the community boards on how that was not the best decision for the community or the program.
  I also sit in the stands and so many of our fans are so negative and out right disrespectful to majority of the players for so many reasons. When I hear and see so many the funny thing is they never even played sports in High School. absolutely breathtaking!
  Noah and Gage are leaving our school in just a few weeks and they will be representing their Hometown School and it truly sucks that there are those that feel like they let our football program down because they chose the best pathway for their DREAM! Maybe just maybe, everyone can finally be honest and focus on the real issues with Big Ned! It starts from the top and I am not speaking on the AD! Starts higher than that!!! 
  Last point I will make is this.....Before you comment please remember that our Athletes from our surrounding areas read and make comments about everything that is posted! Be the Change you wish to see!
  Noah and Gage Good Luck to you both and always know there is a lot of us that will cheer you both on until you finally retire your cleats!

So if the transfer is better than the hometown kid he shouldn’t play because he hasn’t paid his dues.
if the transfer meets all the eligibility requirements then as a coach you play the best player.  If a freshmen is better than a senior then the better player should play.  What grade you are in shouldn’t determine your playing time.

This is very surprising, Buna had a dang good team. I hate that our district got only 1 team out of the bi-district round. It seemed like the district was pretty strong this year. 

Orangefield Game 2 is back in Cleveland tomorrow at 1.

Why isn’t the higher seeds getting first round at their home? Never understood why that doesn’t happen.

Didnt realize that streak was going. Outstanding. OF putting together a good year across all sports. 🔥 🕶

Orangefield  vs. Pollok Central
All Games @ Cleveland High School Field
Game 1- Friday @ 7pm
Game 2- Saturday @ 1pm
Game 3- 30 minutes after game 2, if needed.

When you are going through playoff scenarios “and” and “or” are pretty important words….

"BC - cannot be our right DC; needs one win or Vidor to lose for Co-DC; cannot be lower than second"
That's not what you said.   BC needs both to happen.   

Help me understand. 
 
Vidor is 9-2
BC is 8-3
If BC wins, they’re 9-3. If Vidor also wins, they’ll be 10-2. How would they be co-champions?
Same scenario if BC and Vidor both lose… Vidor would be a game up.  
I think it’s “and” not “or.”

Hard to beat Coach Erickson he is one of the best coaches in the area if not the best. Looking forward to watch the Bobcats try to break their 4 round curse from the past two seasons

I really think Orangefield is one of the better 3A teams in the state. Kountze is pretty young with a good sophomore class. The bobcats will make a run for the state title this year IMO

Orangefield (11-0) - vs. Hardin, vs. Kountze, vs. Anahuac

Orangefield has clinched a playoff spot and the district championship. That is all that is settled in this district...The next week will be interesting...

Exactly It’s nice to have him but just him throwing hard doesn’t equal to wins lol 

It’s nice to have a guy throw 92-96. It also takes a whole team to win ball games. Especially when you start playing teams that are highly ranked. Going 4-0 in the tournament they were in took a whole team. Not just one guy. He would even say that if you asked him. Can’t pitch every game even though I’m sure the coaches would love to have him out there every game. Team pitched great and swung the bats great. Hope to see a lot more of that the rest of the season. 

They threw 2 no hitters this weekend and can swing the sticks I don’t think it’s just one pitcher throwing 94+

Agreed up till last line.. I can name PLENTY of local D1 players that did not play Varsity their freshman and some not until their Jr.  year.. heck I can name some local talent that played PROFESSIONALLY in the Majors that did not make Varsity till their JR year in the 4A level.. 

I just watched it too. Terrible call. Yea, its borderline, but let's let the kids decide who wins the game. No one came to watch the umpire.

As an outsider looking in, I think this was all a bunch of hog wash. I could be dead wrong, but I don’t think any coach would whip a kid for bad squats. There’s just no way that even happened. It looks like to me that a bunch of parents got pissed that their little babies were getting coached hard. That kind of crap is the reason we’re where we are in society today. JMO

And there’s a team a little closer to home than Vandy who is #2 😉

Congrats to all the young men selected!
