PNG2720 got a reaction from RETIREDFAN1 in Should Home School Kids be Able to Participate in School Sports
It's not that hard to show up every week M-F to that particular athletic class and do the same physical requirements as that public student

That's right it is a CLASS so why would the kid not go? I'm sure they can manage to do their work and show up to that CLASS everyday M-F

Do you honestly think that he/ she would just show up for only game day? No, they would still put in the hours just like every other public school student. The bill has been passed by the senate in 2015, so yes soon homeschool kids will be playing UIL sports. Would it be different if one of the public school main star athlete had a younger brother who was homeschooled? Wouldn't you like to give that younger brother a chance to break his brothers records?

May 11 2015 the senate passed the bill so yes, homeschool kids can and eventually will play in public school sports, so really everyone's opinion doesn't matter.

If a homeschooled kid really wants to play sports, I'd think attending the Athletic Period would be mandatory. And any off season programs. Academic requirements could be monitored by the schools (at some big schools, ever wonder why a JV team might lose 10 players to grades but the Varsity only 1, and he wasn't a starter?). If allowed to play in big Districts with residence requirements in the District, they'd have to play at the school of their residence.
I don't have a dog in this hunt, but before you make a knee jerk reaction, you should remember, the vast majority of kids who are home schooled are done so by the parents decision, not the kids themselves. I doubt you'd have a big number of kids who do want to play, but for the few that do, and their parents will let them, why punish the kid? There are many incidents of unwarranted violence in HS sports. The kid from SA who hit the Ref in the back. The Celina QB. The recent fight (one of several across the state I'm sure) at a local basketball game. Those kids all got a second chance. Why? Because they're kids. They made a mistake. The homeschooled kid hasn't made a mistake. Him/her are homeschooled because of their parents. What not give them a (first) chance?

I suspect Tim Tebow was accepted. Surely not initially, but he earned their respect. I'm sure it would be difficult, and many would quit, but for the handful of true good homeschooled athletes, it'll give them an opportunity, despite their parents.

College Station Cougar Club website states that they have 2 ways for fans to go watch the Cougars beat the Indians on Friday Night. I wonder how many ways the depressed Cougar fans have to get home after their loss.

I think I believe similar to you, this College Station team is not the world beaters that some seem to think they are, and although they will have the better athletes across the board similar to PAM, I think we have a fighters chance. Our team will play hard to the last whistle and leave it all on the field. Who knows, we just may shock the world!

PNG2720 reacted to CardinalBacker in PNG is lucky to have Faircloth
If the company I work for gets wind that I'm interviewing for the same position with our competitors.... well, I'd better hope the interview went well.
Honestly, if a coach feels the need to try and get out every spring, let him go. If I was a trustee, I'd probably let BF know that if he applies for another position, I'd vote to fire him. Period.
I understand wanting to coach at your alma mater or something but to carpet bomb every upgrade opening in the state each spring is a little insulting to your current employer.

You must not have been around in the late 90's. I think Long was a damn good offensive minded guy who knew how to take control of an offense. How many other coaches can teach a teenager, albeit it was his son, to call his own plays and be successful. That takes someone special. He left because he wanted to adjust the offense according to what talent he had each year and Burnett would not let him after Dustin left. If Long would have stayed and allowed to do his thing PNG would have been very successful as long as he was there IMO.

Great scouting report... Keep up the good work.... I'm positive the other teams appreciate your due diligence.....

PNG2720 reacted to Stattrax in PNG vs FB Willowridge
You know it doesn't help people getting on here and talking about all this crap. Including injuries. All your doing is helping the other team out. Very few of you have a clue. Let these guys know who is in and who is out. Your giving a free scouting report to the world because either 1 you are on a agenda. Or 2 your a clown. 10-1. Beat Nederland. 2nd round. And all this... Shut it down people. You give all this info and have no clue about the other team. I'm rolling with what we have. Your either in or out. If you want to piss and moan like a bunch of kids, move to Chumperton. I've known the game plan since Sunday and the only peep out of me is Runnels is still recovering from ACL... learn a little and act like adults. Quit giving every team we play a free scouting report.. would be a lot better with a.. Dam, where's that big receiver, than hey that guy is out... BF is not my hero, honestly I'm not a fan... but I promise you he's got this... And for the bitching in the stands guy... REALLY... Don't upset Biaplayer. I do not want to see another statistic. NDNNation, I need a water to cool down!!! If I have offended any of you please PM me!!!!!

If anyone went to that meeting tonight you would have heard BF say he doesn't want to run his QB this much,but that's what he has got to do. Also Logan will be playing Rb and the freshman kid will come in on certain plays only to give Logan a break. I hope this team goes all the way up and shuts these haters down who needs fans like this what happen to always be faithful now it's always be complaining.
