Fort Bend is perfect example. They have another high school coming next year which will make 11 nee high schools since 1979. That's one new high school ever four years for four decades. As soon as one starts winning, they open a new one and split their enrollment. Imagine if Hightower and Ridge Point would have remained one large school with 5,000 enrollment like some of the Dallas schools. They'd be ranked #1 in the state every year for the last ten.
Looking them up also got me to realize that Bert Emmanuel's son and ND Kalus son are playing for Ridge Point. They also have a sophomore QB that is going to be the next Vince Young. Interesting set of Hudl highlights. Ridge Point is going to be stout this year.
Frisco ISD has 11-12 high schools, and almost everyone of them have their own indoor facility with state of the art weight rooms. Like I said, it’s all about what’s important, and it’s very obvious that football is a lot more important at districts like Frisco and Arlington than it is and Baytown, Pasadena, or Fort Bend. Until those school districts make football a priority, they’re going to continue to be behind the 8 ball. Period.

The majority of multi school districts also don't have nearly the resources that some of those single school districts do for football. Their own stadium, indoor facility, massive weightrooms, multiple athletic periods, if they have athletic periods at all, stuff that have nothing to do with being Hispanic. You say you want to be upfront and honest but it just seemed like going out of your way to take a gratuitous shot at two programs doing their best with what they are given.
Your post is another example of someone looking at everything through rose colored glasses. Arlington ISD is a great example of a multi school district that SPENDS $ on things such as indoor facilities, weight rooms, etc. It’s all about what’s important, and until districts like Pasadena and Baytown make football important, then they’re never going to be successful.

Exactly. "Upfront and honest" is a euphemism he uses for taking unnecessary shots at a program that just got a rare win. Why can't the win just be congratulated, or at the very least just be left alone? What good is it to try to discredit and devalue it? What does he accomplish or change for the better by doing this? He never suggested any solution, he just wants to criticize. And making it into a racial commentary? Dang.
I think it’s safe to say I’m not being racial at all man being that my wife and kids are Hispanic. I don’t appreciate that

Coach Hooks personally explained how we caused a penalty once... it never happened again.

I guess. My point is…. The demographics of not just south Texas, But SETX and eventually all of Texas will change. If it changes to majority Hispanic people, then so be it. But I believe the quality of football will adjust as well once it’s evened out. I am aware of the so called ‘Hispanic Takeover’ which many say happened to programs like Aldine and schools like that.
Yessir Aldine along with many many others. The districts that come to mind in DFW are Garland, Mesquite, Richardson, Irving, Carrollton; they all used to produce great football teams, but are now no longer competitive

This is the craziest thing I’ve ever heard footballwise…. 🙄🙄🙄
The takeover has certainly improved their soccer programs, but how can you say it hasn’t hurt the football programs? How many Hispanics are in the NFL? Or how many even play college football? I’m not being biased or anything I’m just stating a fact. I mean how many whites do you see running sprints in the Olympics? How many blacks are in the NHL? That’s the problem with the world; nobody wants to hear the truth

They do.
So what about football?
In my opinion there’s not much they can do. When you’re short on talent, you’re pretty much in trouble. These two programs will continue to decline. I hate to be up front an honest, but that’s just the way it is.
P.S. The majority of multi school districts across the state struggle mightily in football

Manvel should’ve gone down. They’ve got probably 1,500 fewer kids in HS than Dickinson

They’ve been starting for years now…and they’ve never gotten any better. The Hispanic takeover has completely destroyed both of these school districts football programs

HD getting killed. No aggression, energy or emotion at all, players or coaches. Embarrassing! Yes Somerville has some horses, but HD looks bad.
31-0 with 2 minutes left in half.
Oh, yes HD is missing their starting QB, FB and 2 OL players, they didn’t suit up. But I don’t think it makes a difference tonight. Maybe the worst line play I’ve seen at HD in decades.
Why were the HD players out? Injury?

Problem is Kountze always has athletes, just can't ever put it together on the football field. They will be fine in basketball season, not ever a football school.
Make no mistake! Best athlete to ever come thru Kountze is ballin out for the Eagles!
