They have another game already scheduled for Friday night. Katy vs. CE King at 7pm.

Both teams agreed to play that afternoon so they won't have to worry about weather.

Thought the Katy game may be the reason.  Thanks!

ATTENTION!!!

Game with Cuero will no longer be at Freedom Field in Alvin.

 

Friday 1:30 pm

NRG Stadium - Houston

Friday?   Odd that day matched with that start time. 

Was that day and time all NRG would offer?  If so, then I get it.

Also, this is the 3rd time in last 5 seasons, 4th time in last 8 seasons that Silsbee has made it to the State Quarterfinals.

Pretty descent 8 year run.

Descent?  I thought that would be an ascent.  

Are teams back out?

Accuweather Radar has another dark cell passing just northwest of Katy around 8. Good chance for another delay at that time. Maybe they can reach halftime before it does in case lightning is present in it.

It's 4:19pm. A game scheduled for 6pm this evening is not getting rescheduled. 😂 

 

Good luck 

Hoping this doesn't happen, but several lightening delays would truly be miserable. 

Checking multiple sites and tomorrow could be interesting.  Rain is obvious, but several are showing lightening to be a possibility as well throughout the day and into the night. Might we see some games moved to Saturday rather than deal with potential delays?

Coach John Payton's rules: 1. Stay away from the young ladies. Do not be in a room alone with any female student!    1a. Always make friends with the lunch ladies! 

Truly wonder how many of us heard that from him. Take all the Kinesiology classes you want, read all the research you can find, study every offense and defense ever invented,...   and you will still never learn anything more important than his most important lesson. 

Shealy out at HCU.  

Josh McCown to Lamar?  Saw a site (can't remember where) suggest it.  

Thoughts, anyone???

Head coach Blane Morgan has been relieved of his duties.

Lamar was 5-23 under Morgan.

Likely to be at least 1 more SLC opening and a decent chance at 2.

Heard a great story from a former HF assistant superintendent.

The community was mad at Koenning because in 74, they lost to Newton in bi-district 14-13.  At the time HF was #1, and Newton was #2, I believe.    Newton went on to win a state title.

People wanted him gone then, saying he couldn’t get it done.   The next year in 75, they lost to LaGrange in the semi’s and LaGrange won it all.

Koenning was very under appreciated.   Sometimes you don’t know how good you have it.

The current coach and staff has done a great job.   Hopefully the community supports him.

I have a relative that was part of the HF staff in '74.  If I remember the story correctly, Newton was sitting 4th and long in HF territory late in the 4th quarter.  Newton then committed 2 false starts and still converted on a sliding catch before eventually scoring the game winner.  Hope I am telling this correctly. 

HF had given Newton their only loss early in the season in a non-district match-up. 

One could argue that HF has given the eventual state champion their toughest game of the playoffs quite a few years, BUT....

As an aside, that HF group went on to win a regional title in baseball that school year with Danny Lauve as the Ace.  Jasper folks will know that name. 

Thought that as possibility. To get remotely central site the west side of Houston was where you had to go. 

Any rumors on a site and/or day for next week?

If you folks want to go further down memory lane, in its first year of existence (1961) a reginal title was won.  However, the team went no further as there was no state title for the low classification at the time.

Curious, what's the furthest HF Has made it in the playoffs? Or how longs it been since they've played in the third round. I looked at their record on max preps all the way back to the 04-05 season and saw that the furthest they had ever made it was to the second round. 

State semis, but in the 70's.  I do believe i am accurate on this.

they are just bad period. i will not listen to them again.

they gave zero information about the plays.

I do not want to turn a big win for Woodville into a bashing session on the broadcast.  Just hope that if they broadcast next week they give more detail.  Be fans, get angry at officials, have fun, but please provide us details so we know the situation each snap. 

I hope this is not taken as a complaint but constructive to improve the broadcast.  Love the enthusiasm, just want the detail. 

For years many guys that have coached against Woodville have always felt it was a school that had great potential.  Hope the past few years and this one begin the success that should be expected there year after year.

you listened to the EC broadcast or Woodville broadcast? 

Woodville.

who is these guys on this broadcast?

 

I appreciate people being willing to broadcast, but I simply had to turn that one off.  No idea what was happening from one play to the next.  

If the broadcasters read this thread....gentlemen we aren't present.  Please give us yards gained on a play if nothing else.  

May the Lord give you comfort.

Still nothing. Never had an issue before 

Same here. 

The soccer recruiting statement was sarcasm folks.  I know the demographics well and the kids playing in leagues outside of the area before entering high school. The talent pool was on campus before they even started the program.

You cannot think there's recruiting for soccer, that's just jealousy. EC runs a great program and has had a large population of soccer kids for a while. They just finally set it up recently. When you have the kids who are committed, talented and love the game you get success. I guess just because you're good fast it means it not has nothing to do with coaching or the fact kids have been playing it away from school for a while. Get out of here with that.🤡

Sarcasm.  It was pure sarcasm.  Please read my post again and if you don't pick up on the sarcasm, I will gladly explain. 

Also, if you see my first reply in this thread you would realize where I stand on this issue. 

EC recruits big time. How else do you explain a 3A school being so good in 4A soccer!   With the 10's and 10's of fans at the games, it has to be a big money maker for them. 

Finally win one today. 

Gametime5 is likely not an EC nor Orangefield supporter.  However he/she is a new poster that just did a wonderful job of throwing a well respected school and athletic program "under the bus."  Thus, it leads to the EC recruiting slam coming along as well.  If that was your goal Gametime5, well done.
