  1. Newton's offence seemed to do what ever they wanted. The Dean kid looked good at QB which should let Holmes remain on defence.
    The defence made some mistakes. Newton is learning a new defence and that should improve over time.
    Newton dominated the scrimmage but the real test comes the next two scrimmages when they meet Coldsprings and Crockett.
    The J.V. was outstanding scoring 10 time to Hemphill's one first down.
  2. There is  nothing no greater than serving the Lord. I would bet that even while coaching that he had a good impact upon the players.  Coach Barbay had a tradition before each game, they neil down on their knees and the team resites the Lord's prayer. A tradition that I think will probably continue with coach W.T. because he to, like Barbay, is a Christian.
    Congratulations Pastor/coach Rose.
  3. Well said ChampionEagles, we have one of the best coaching staffs in 2A football. Trevor moving back to linebacker will be a big difference in our defense. Our line will still be undersized. I  think this will be a team that will get better as the year go on. Have not heard if we got any transfers from other school or not.
    Remembering that the 8th grade kids will now be on the soph or JV team and some of them may be skilled enough to play varsity but I suspect that they will be another year away. This is the bunch of kids (undefeated since pee wee football) that Coach Barbay told me was the best looking group of kids coming up that he has ever had at Newton. The future is looking bright in Newton football if our school does not keep losing players. At the rate we are losing kids we may be down to class A football in a few years.
  4. Found the magazine in was-mart, Jasper, this morning. It was on the magazine rack by the check out.

  5. Things are definately looking up in Burkeville. Coaching change has been needed for years. The mustangs will have a hugh line next year. Burkeville needs more kids so they can develope their JV and JH programs. The new coach should be a good one. Good luck.
    P.S. Burkeville recently received a letter from the state declaring them chapter 41. Wow, that is because we do not have enough students (i think their is more property value than we have kids).
  6. rykerx144 you got me courious so I did a computer generated program with all the Brownwood players and the Kirbyville players for next  year. I got this program from ''Jimmy the Greek" who used this program to set all his odds.
    After putting in all the players with reference to size, speed, experience, coaching etc.. the computer spit out the results.......

  8. Just because a person has been their longer,more years, does not mean he is a better person/coach. Longer or older does not always mean better. A 30 yr. old man said he heard that the older you get the better you could fight. He said he whipped an 80 yr. old man and believed he could have whipped him if he had been 100.
