But we have a point to prove this season. It's personal. 

Wouldn't surprise me. 

Let me get PNG by a score TD or FG. Both talented teams. Just think PNG will come in super motivated to avenge the loss and riding a wave of excitement from going as far as they did last year. Look at PAM to strike first but PNG grinds to a victory over a very tough 4 qrts.  Good game for SETx football

I'm sure the PNG faithful would agree:  It's not how you start -- it's how you finish!

One of the top tier games in the state week 1! Both programs seem to be excited for this coming season. Both ranked in the top 10 in their class. I'll go with PNG in this one. I think the extra couple of weeks practicing and championship experience will help PNG start the season off right. Plus they are playing at home. How many does each team return?

Crosby KO the #3 RB for LH. Blake Simpson was the #1 back and #20 was the #2 back. I would agree if Blake got KO LH doesn’t stand a chance against Crosby that yr. I do believe the outcome is still the same against PNG. That defense was salty asl. They were able to get penetration and disrupt the timing. 

Yes.  I just re-watched the game on youtube.  RB's had zero room all night long.  Wouldn't have mattered who was back there.

Png won by beating the LH offensive and defensive lines. It wouldn’t have mattered if those two starters had been healthy. They wouldn’t have had anywhere to run. 

Region 2 is a damn gauntlet smh. Sheesh. 

She's good on social media but is going to have trouble answering to college personnel directors about a football player's lateral quickness or about a guard's mid-range game. She's really going to be a plus for girls' sports recruiting due to her high activity level on social media though. She's also going to be our head girls track coach which may be concerning to some considering she couldn't really win anything even with all the thoroughbreds North Shore has roaming the campus. This hire was also directed by the supt. 

All I know for sure is that she is from Crosby. And that’s she’s already hard at work implementing programs that we didn’t have. Still looking forward to  Crosby having a great season. For whatever reason historically Crosby has done well when they’re not favored to win.

TCU offers Crosby running back Wesley Yarbrough last night: 
 

It’s become a good rivalry. Wasn’t that way until about 10 years ago. The demographics of LP have changed to majority Hispanic, and the sports teams reflect that change.
As far as enrollment, I believe 2282 is the old number. But, the senior class graduated 450, and the 8th grade is about the same. Maybe a touch less. Seems I read 815 somewhere.
I expect LP to remain 5A for a while. UIL will continue to raise numbers, and the new residents are still very young families. Of course, I am wrong half the time. 😀

I still have it:

High school football recruiting changed drastically after the portal and covid. There are college recruiters online that will tell you straight up they are looking for someone who fits the bill physically. 5’11 LB is going JUCO 5’8 RB/WR better be a 4.3. Everyone thinks that if you can play you can play no matter the size ,and that may be true, but when your job depends on it you’re probably going with a 6’3 transfer over a LB under 6’. Best bet is to get your kid to put as much on paper/film as possible. That means track, powerlifting, basketball and attending camps. 
In regards to Rio the kids he had to work with all fit the bill physically and in the classroom. Netherly, Williams , and Patterson all were all district academics. Nethery 6’2 WR 2nd place in state 400m. Patterson 5’11WR went to state in 200m. Williams 5’8 HB with a laser timed 4.35. 

Coaches do develop relationships with the college ranks. Coaches also lobby on behalf of the players so long as the player has no character deficiency that would make the coach look bad. If a player is not getting recruited is usually because the player's behavior is not worth the risk to the coach. As stated previously, the coaches see the kids everyday and in many cases, spend more time with the players than the parents do.
I wish I had a nickel for every player that could have played college ball but acted the fool at school and practice and as a result went nowhere. Meanwhile, the parents and community could not understand why the player "did not get support from the coaches" or "why he was not recruited". 

I heard the same thing this weekend but why did we have to get to this point before she decided to give in to a basic ask that any decent coach is going to have for his kids? You can tell she's feeling the pressure because she made sure the practice fields and game field information got out to the "correct" people. 

All I can/will say is it wasn’t politics. P might have been one of the few coaches in Crosby history that didn’t do politics. 

"One thing for sure Crosby will play defense and the best 11 players will be on the field." Best 11, now this is where things gonna go left. For the most part Crosby is still a small town (IJS). From what I been told the previous coach had that same mentality. Led them to the state game and still had parent(s) knocking on his door about "playing time". 
We shall see and I wish him success!

Watch his interview on the ISD Facebook Page. He emphasized Crosby will be physical. 
 
Although we won that game it still embarrasses me we had to score 72 point to win a game.

Great points of emphasis. You could do an Open Records request under the "the public information act". Sure they will try and stall and redact some info, but by law they have to release information. To include notes, emails and recording by all that's involved.
