STYMIE

Cade is the only returner that has been an all-District selection for 2 years. Freshmen and sophomore year, So there is validity to the post.

Hey guys, I've been trolling around a while and thought I would jump in on this conversation. The bottom line is that arm injuries have skyrocketed in recent years and I applaud the proactive rule change. Is it perfect, absolutely not. Are there a lot of variables based on each individual kid and that particular game situation, absolutely. Can a kid throw 150 pitches in a game? Sure, but most likely their mechanics will begin to break down as they become fatigued. This is where the injuries either happen or begin to happen. I do agree with STYMIE that care must be taken when not on the mound. I suspect that this rule will be modified/improved over the course of the next few years and that it will result in fewer arm injuries. This whole situation reminds me of when they changed the bat standards a few years back. Everyone was screaming about how the change would kill the game. It took a couple of years for teams and coaches to adjust, but you don't even hear those complaints anymore.

Hey Eagle Fans,
Scott Loar here and set up ready to broadcast tonight's Area Round playoff game against Cameron Yoe. Pregame will start around 7:15 with the kickoff scheduled for 7:30. If you can't be in Conroe be sure to follow all the action right here on SETXSPORTS.COM the leader in sports coverage in Southeast Texas.

I believe he meant triple the passing attack that Woodville has faced. Go Eagles!

I think the UIL should make a best of three series the default. If for some reason both coaches agree to a one-game series, they can play a one-game series. If either wants a three-game series, then it is a three-game series. I personally prefer that all of the rounds be a three games series, but there might be some instances in which both coaches want a one-gamer.

Getting ahead of the game for the Spring. Looking for teams to be in our week 3 tournament March 9-11. Want all teams to play 4 games. Email me ASAP to lock your spot in.

i hope he signed more than a 1 YEAR contract with all the talk of mixon coming back next year.

All hires are always strange in some way.  The thing is HJ got a good coach that knows the game. I have had some battles with him and his kids were always ready to play.
 

The difference in this thread and one on Woodville's softball program is eye opening. Someone one questioned the softball coach's decision to play a one game series and Eagle fans were quick to support him. The baseball coach wins 18 games and makes the playoffs and some of the same people basically say good riddance. Woodville is very lucky to have a really good softball coach and to have also had a good baseball coach. Both deserve kudos and best wishes in their respective future plans. That return to glory tour would be a lot easier if the Becks, Riley's and Winters had some eligibility left

I am sure their will be different sides to Coach Standley's departure which is understandable.  He, his family wanted to stay 100 percent. No need to go into those details, lets just say he has been doing it for 20 years and he can see what an AD wants.  If you want to get to the first bite of problems, look close at Coach Butter and how he was treated.  He is an amazing Coach and the kids, teachers, community loved him. He wanted to stay and deserved way more than he got. That is the first step of a new AD's reign and more comes later.  It is part of the crazy business and is sad. Woodville has amazing kids and the parents are passionate about sports.  I can say Coach Standley landed on his feet but his heart will still love Woodville and miss each and every moment that he spent there. 
 
Brobie!!!!!  You don't know anything about the situation other than he was on his phone!!!  you are correct, he was ,He was texting the scores to all the haters that said that Woodville kids couldn't make the play-offs.  

as usual someone always misses the point. It takes everyone to have a successful athletic program. why let 1 person be a hard a and ruin something that many parents and kids have worked for since they were 4 yrs old. yes there are some that have spent more time money and energy in their children than others, they should have more say so than little johnnys parents that have done nothing. are you a giver  or a Taker. These parents have given more than their fair share. The coaches would have nothing if not for the encouragement of the parents  and for their children to work for something and be the best.

Old school was one of the few on here that wasn't scared to bring the truth to the table about whats really going on down here...he says what everyone else is scared to say or hear....but its the truth...and the majority of people on this site cant deal with the truth of whats reallly happening down here....everyone is wearing rose colored glasses

oldschool - I always appreciated your posts. hope you come back soon

Sounds great , just moves often and we don't want that. Our kids need the same coaches from junior high through high school !

Go Cardinals
That's some good arms at any level
