My apologies...your reply 

When Woodville is not playing Newton I pull for Woodville. Best of luck in the playoffs.  
I love football but like a recent coach(WT Johnston)told his players “keep your eyes on the cross”.

lol and what did that get them...I'll wait 

We lost in the playoffs just like woodville. But we have 7 state appearances and 5 state Championships. Waiting on your reply.

Nothing to see with the purple figs. They can't throw a pass more than 5 yards and that's being generous! 

Seems like the purple figs clobbered the crawling bears by 19 points last year.

Probably not but there are some other teams that might surprise. Trinity being the main one I'd keep my eye on 

You can’t be serious.

I like our chances to finish top 2 in district possibly challenging Newton for the DC and probably getting a rematch against Newton in the Region 3 championship. I think whoever wins region 3 has a good chance to win it all but I got Newton as the favorite in region 3 right now 

Heck every one challenges newton, nothing to see here.

Probably a little later this year....we went to press two weeks later than usual due to the college transfer portal spring window and having to shuffle the college section around late

No, thats not later than usual.

Surprising move.  Huntsville should be favored to win the district next season.  Good luck to Coach Southern. 

I do not think so. PN-G will probably be picked first. Will be hanging scalps from totem pole ke-mo- sob by.

Trying to lead the convo elsewhere? Looks like your just getting upset about points being made about a topic you claim you have no ties to. Yall weird on here

You are right, all the people on this site are weird except for one. I am glad I am one of the weird.

OK yall still gave up 100 plus and half the 165 was because EW barely even put a defense on the field 

I am a betterChristian then to sit and argue with you. Best of luck to you and your team this year.

Rather get shut out in state game than give up 130 plus first 3 rounds of playoffs. 

We did not give up130 points. The score of the Daingerfield game is wrong. It was 41 to 21 not 62 to 28. Newton scored 165 points to 98.

We'll see. Hopefully yalls secondary don't get torched all durring the playoffs again 

Maybe the Bears will not get shut out again. Maybe they can at least crawl there way across mid field.

Yea I saw that and also saw he had losing seasons 2 out of 4 years going 0-10 one year. That's not enough consistency for me to be sure if he "brought" them to 5/2 or if he just arrived at a good time? Granted he'll probably have some good years at Woodville but if he turns out not to be that good of a head coach that could make our chances of making another state run a bit slimmer 

The odds for the Woodville Bears making state again is very dim.

Damn dude is he your son or what? Or is he you? I mean you seem very protective of a guy who definitely made a horrible decision and maybe/probably broke some laws…

Well said.

So if a 6-30 guy comes from a 6A school to Newton you'd assume that's a good hire for Newton just because he comes from a 6A school? 

No I saw his record and he brought a bad team to a 5/2 district record and to the playoffs. Maybe Woodville found out he knew the bear crawl.

So Woodville hires the Elgin  head Coach who comes from a 5A2 school to a 3A2 school. Not saying that is bad but seems a little odd. Looks like a good hire. Welcome Heath Clawson.

Looks like Newton returns 7/8 did not count a player that goes both ways but one time. Biggest loss was our 3 best offense lineman's. Defense should be good.

Good hire for Lufkin. Abseck may bring Lufkin back to their glory days if they let him. 

Back when coach outlaw was coaching there.

Time to pull a little WOS magic.

Get the plant manager to hire the parents with the "right kids"

Thats our problem we do not have a plant. The new bio refinery that was approved  3 yrs ago still has not started up yet.  No jobs. Newton needs the money and jobs. Once it starts up there is still a 5 yr. Abatement. Do not forget they did away with the Robin hood program.  There are about 14,000 people in newton county. I see the difference because I was raised in Pt. Neches and went to PN-G.

I no longer go to ATT because the traffic just before Christmas is a mad house. I travel 28 miles to the Stump Restaurant at Sam Rayburn Dam and eat a good meal (or you can have a drink) and watch  all the games on FanDuel Sports .Two large TV screens.
