Two years ago Crosby came to The Reservation and was goal line fumble by my little guy away from dropping 75. Fast forward one year later after making one hire and they're in the title game. North Shore has always been good, but it wasn't until they gave the job to Jon Kay that they reached the level they are now. Duncanville has always been one of the most talented teams in the state but the last decade or so before Samples got there they couldn't even make the playoffs consistently. I guess I may be the only one but I think BU is also one hire away from putting a competitive product on the field. 

You remember last year, when PN-G took the worst season opener loss in school history to Memorial, 50-15 in Port Neches, and then turned around and beat United 49-0 at BISD’s [insert name here] Stadium the very next week?
Apparently nobody in 6A does.

Crosby would have blown out FBM if Dunn ankle wasn’t bad. 

Sorry FBM yall are just incapable of beating the cougs!!!!

100% - Looks like the Coach has gotten buy in as well because those kids have to be studying this offense not just going through the motions. 

I wasn't keeping track as I was watching the film but on 26 dropbacks I don't think Eudy was sacked once? Remember Langley didn't play either. Eudy ended up throwing for 223 yards and that was with all those drops, easily goes for over 300 yards and 4tds if we could've hung on to it. They moved my nephew up from JV after he made some spectacular catches on King last week, maybe they intend on him helping us hang on to it on Friday's too. 
To your point about the fronts though. Crosby rushed 28 times for 22 yards and CEK rushed 31 times for 409 yards. We were also 1-13 on 3rd downs and half of those were 3rd and 5 or shorter. I agree though, we clean up some of those first game miscues I think we're going to be more than fine. That being said, this new offense is extremely complicated vs what we've been used to running under Coach Riordan and Coach P. You see Coach P's first rattle out of the box they dropped 60 Friday night. 

Feels like this game could be a defensive struggle. If Crosby can contain the little RB #24 I think we'll have decent day rushing the passer and defending in the secondary. Andre Feast is a beast but overall I think the FBM receiving core is a notch below CEK. O-line isn't anywhere near King's overall size but the tackles do go about 285 and 300lbs with one being the younger brother of of former A&M signee Barton Clement. 
FBM runs a two QB system I'm assuming. #15 is the bigger kid and better runner while #6 is the better passer and less likely to pull it down. For example, #15 made all but a couple of FBM most explosive run plays against Klein while #6 was brought in on OT to throw the fade to Feast for the game-winning TD. 
What is concerning is FBM on the defensive side of the ball. Looks like they either got a basketball player to come out of got a DT transfer during the offseason? They already had Koryn Randals who has D1 offers at one DT spot and now they add 6'9" 250lbs DeMarcus Johnson who of course had D1 offers too. They replaced stud linebacker Jordan Sample and is counterpart with a  couple of 6'2" sophomores who absolutely look like they have P5 ability. The secondary is typical FBM, Josh Lair, Caleb Chester and Isiah Williams all have multiple P5 offers. William Mitchell is their weak link in the secondary even though he's currently sitting on 11 D1 offers. Going to be a great test to see if we can scheme guys as open as we had them on CEK last week, hopefully we can catch it this time. 

If we clean up the problems with dropping balls I think we win this one. If we continue to drop TD passes/long yardage catches then this will likely mirror the Klein game and be a who makes a play at the end type of game. 
FBM has a lot of athletes all over the place but Crosby has had their number lately. I think the new offensive scheme does a very good job of creating bad reads for the opposing teams. The number of times we had time to throw the ball against king even tho they would beat us off the edge 75% of the time is extremely impressive. I also think the running game will have a better day not playing a very good 6a front 7. 
I was exceedingly impressed with our coverage of C.E King this last week when they beat us this week it was due to bully ball which they should and did win. FBM doesn't have that style or type of offense they rely on being extremely fast and athletic. Limit big plays catch the ball and the Cougars will be just fine.

Playing teams like Magnolia West in non-district does 0 for Crosby. They’re not going to be a factor to win anything and they don’t have the personnel or coaching that you look for to get you ready for the teams you have to beat late in the playoffs. 
 
Playing teams where you know you’re out-manned tests your level of physicality, execution and fortitude. Are you physical enough to compete, can you execute within narrow margins and when it gets tough out there who really wants to play? Saw some physicality, King probably got more players hurt than we did. Executed light years better than last year, even with returning a QB responsible for 50 tds the year before, and the kids played hard to the last whistle.  In Crosby and CEK’s case we’re also seeing where we need to be in a few years to compete in district play.
SOC has been playing Duncanville in non-district the last four years. SOC has no chance but in those games SOC has become a little more and more competitive, it’s definitely helped them in later games during the season. 

Kade Eudy dropping it in the bucket all night. Somehow we catch this one and walk away with no points after having 1st and 10 from the 15 and a TD drop on another perfectly thrown Eudy pass. Nice to see us make some plays on both sides of the ball against this caliber personnel. Particularly thought the o-line played better than expected considering Langley was out.

Folks were wondering how this kid has so many D1 offers . I believe yall need to put some respects on young Wes Yarbrough name. 

If the C.E. King QB is a sophomore,Crosby does not need to have the Panthers on next years Schedule.He's a good one.Can't be a 5A team and play a 6A team with 3 of your better players not playing.Just Sayin'

District-mates: 
What's your feelings after week-1? 
 
For me: Glad the Titans came away injury-free/defense and OL were great. Kicker is legit. 

Joe Cauthen, who's the DC at Utah State now, gave me an opportunity to be a GA. Just couldn't see the benefit in working for free at that time. I often wonder what could've been? Crosby alum Aston Walter went the GA route and is now the assistant RB coach at Tennessee. Probably going to making north of $300k once he loses the assistant title, rather that be at Tennessee or some other school. 

Best of luck Cougs. Hope you have a great season. 

I know in Crosby there are several new subdivisions going along 2100. And there are several that will be going along 90.

Dayton just started a 15k home community, Mont Belvieu is about pour roads on a 5k home community and Crosby has pockets of new homes popping up. The growth towards the northeast and far east is starting to build up steam.

BH had 10 teams out there, not 1 report on one of em? 😁

I'm not a fan of personal trainers for RB's so Levi doesn't really go to them. Wes goes to all of them though. I think that had an impact on getting the ball rolling for him, lots of additional promotion. He got invited by Demarco Murray for an unofficial to OU's Spring game before camp season even started, I wouldn't be surprised if they offered him in the not too distant future. I think he just came from Texas a couple of weeks ago too.
It was kind of clear when they were both at the UTSA camp where Levi measured at 5'11"/193lbs/4.53/37" and no lost reps in 1 v 1's. Tim Yoder(RB coach) pulls him to the side after camp and say "Man you look good, we want to see you be more consistent on film though". Needless to say the two backs they offered that day had even less film than Levi. Wes is just going to be a junior and already 200lbs though. He also looks good running around cones for a kid that size, sometimes you recruit the physical traits even if the numbers may not be there. 

Believe Wes was injured against BH could be wrong. 

The question should be why is Levi not rated as he should be. He looks the part, got it on tape,  measurables and academics. All I can say is that the scouts are asleep at the wheel. Lil cuz will definitely put them on notice once again this year. Good lord say the same and he stays healthy all year, expect big thangs from number 14 this yr.
