As strong as I feel about this. lets get one thing straight, pulling his scholarship isn't one of them.

Angelle and Jones caught several passes on the line of scrimmage intended for them to run with the ball. That play was called several times and was about the only passing play called. For anyone at that game, however, you had to wonder why PA did anything but run the ball. It was working, and you keep doing that until someone stops it. Hines had over 300 yards rushing for the game, and that's not including a 76-yard TD run called back for a block in the back. 

I just disagree with "bonehead mistake," being applied here. This is beyond bonehead, this is unexcusable, it was pre planned out as you see him look down and think about it. 17-18 year old is old enough to vote, smoke, go to war, so they should know trying to purposely hurt somebody in that fashion has severe consequences.

Absolutely intolerable.  If coaches don't suspend player for season, then parents should step-in.  Is that the reputation that you want your child to have? I would hope not!!!

Blame it on those god awful orange looking helmets.

Just watched it, should be suspended if not allowed to play any for the rest of the year. That was just straight up savage like and HS football has no place for BS like that.

I would love to see Nederland get in after everything that has went wrong for them this year

Agreed. Memorial & Nederland as Division 1, PNG as Division 2.  (Hopefully with another game vs. Barbers Hill)

You can work on the short (10-12 yard) passing game repeatedly in practice.  Timing, routes, execution.  Get that down & you will have that weapon in game play.  Let the run work, if it doesn't, throw the short, quick passes to back the defense up & then run some more.  In the playoffs, speed will cover speed after the first 2 rounds. That run game & short passing game will eat the clock & win games. Long passes are not going to be there in the later playoff rounds due to quarterback protection times & defense speed.  Use the weapons you have to your advantage.

THE KEY IS SUPPORT YOUR TEAM & THE BOYS PLAYING EVERY TIME, EVERY YEAR, WIN OR LOSE!!!
I have missed a total of 4 PNG games in the 51 years since I went to my first one at 9 months old.  I was taught to bleed purple & white.  Never leave early, stay to the end.  I guarantee that the fan following at PNG is based upon children being raised to believe in that spirit.  So I love to see massive fan support on the opposing side.  If that team has a winning, or losing season, that support shows quality people & quality fans!!! 

Memorial concentrated on the run because it worked.  I am a firm believer in running a play until it doesn't work.  Memorial kept it simple & ended up with the victory.  Good coaching!!!

Livingston has a concession stand on the visitors side scoreboard end.  Pray for no rain, because access to concessions area & bathrooms turns into a severe mud pit when it rains.  The visitors side is ridiculously small & there is  ZERO parking.
Cars are usually spread out for dozens of blocks away from the stadium.  It is a sad facility for 5A, or for that matter, would be sad for 3A.

I thought the run defense looked very effective when they kept two backers. That's why it made zero sense to keep bailing one on third down as if they were going to pass downfield. I don't think PAM threw one vertical pass all night.

I was looking at the UIL brackets and it looks like in round 3 of the 5A Division II playoffs, PNG would face off with Brenham. Last Friday night the Cubs put up over 600 yards of rushing. Once you get to the playoffs, if you don't make adjustments, it won't be pretty.

Most coaches remember the Darrell Royal saying that "Three things can happen when you throw the ball, and two of them are bad."   So why, if you can run the ball effectively.....and with Elijah Hines, PAM can run the ball effectively....would you put the ball up in the air?
PAM won! Enjoy it!

I predict this game to take less than two hours to play. Clock will rarely stop with the lack of passing. Vidor big in this one.
