Under Par

And I think you will find the same for WO-S fans toward Newton.  But when you have certain Newton announcers (yes, I know one of them is part of the Newton announce team) and players (lest you think otherwise, please check young Mr. Brown's twitter timeline) start running their mouths about WO-S, you can expect blowback to occur.
I am glad the game will occur and, regardless of the outcome, I think both schools will be better for it.

I guess I'll tell him to make his trophy case bigger while i'm at it. 

Newton may need two bye weeks after this schedule. 

Man I don't understand your negativity towards the Newton kids. Those kids are special and would start at ANY program in SETX at their position. 1A-6A. 

I have seen you post about Newton players not panning out and not having playing time at the next level. After you state that, you then refer to the Elam kid every time? Newton has not sent very many to a power 5 school in the past years. You have Roney Elam, Kevin Shorter and DJ Dean that has went to a power 5 program in the past 10 years. Kevin Shorter had a career ending injury his senior year of high school and never got the chance to play. DJ Dean started two out of his four seasons at the University of Arkansas and started in two bowl games. Roney Elam has not had a lot of playing time, but he still has 2 more season left. What's the big deal? Why only bash him? Why do you say that Newton's talent does not translate to the division 1 level when there has only been 3 players in the past 10 years? haha. 
Now that Newton has 5 players returning with division 1 offers before their senior season even starts and 4 of those players are in the top of the state in rankings, you just hate seeing that and need to state how the big prospect Elam hasn't played much. You talk down on the Elam kid and base that one player to a statement of "Newton's D1 talent doesn't translate to the next level". Well, i am sorry to tell you this, but Newton has more division 1 talent on their team right now than any 4A team out there. Yes, you will be seeing 4 of those players choosing from any conference they want to play in. I know that kills you, but swallow the pill and go root for BC baseball rather than being on here with this foolery. I hear they're going to be pretty darn good. Also, I sure hope Roney get's a lot of playing time these next two season to shut you up. These players that newton has right now, you can bet they will be big time players in college. Your life must suck to be honest. 

Tamauzia Brown (JR), Darwin Barlow (JR), James Sylvester (SO) and Josh Foster (JR) for Newton all have SEC and Big 12 offers. The Arkansas Razorbacks and Baylor Bears are the only two schools to extend offers to all four players so far. This team is going to be something special this coming season.
So far:
Tamauzia Brown: 12 Offers
Darwin Barlow: 11 Offers
Josh Foster: 7 Offers
James Sylvester: 2 Offers

Newton does not lack depth , they have great football numbers every year . It’s not like Newton had D1 guys and no one else .. Newton is loaded like a 4ad1

As a Newton alum, former division 1 player, and a good friend of W.T. and Coach Carver, i will strongly say that the Newton athletes do not need any help with getting offers. Tamauzia Brown, Darwin Barlow, James Sylvester and Josh Foster are the type of players that college coaches find and offer themselves; they are getting offers regardless if a Newton coach or an outside Twitter friend of the players do anything or not. Yes, i see "jkbtjc53" on Twitter everyday and he does love these young kids. I respect the hell out of him for that, but he is not the one getting them their offers. Yes, he know's and talks to some ASSISTANT high school coaches from WOS, Central, Jasper, Etc, but it's not the HEAD COACH. Yes, he may talk to some ASSISTANT college coaches, but it is not the HEAD COACH. The head coach makes the decision to offer a player, not an assistant. The assistant may extend the offer, but that is not his decision, as it only comes from the head coach first. The Newton kids were getting offered by Baylor regardless if the Twitter friend was relevant or not. I see the Newton kids communicate with jkbtjc53 on Twitter, but please do not think you're getting them their offers. They will take comments and love from anyone, as they should. You talk them up and re-tweet everything they post. I commend you on what you do and your effort, sir. Though, I am 99.9 percent sure that not one college head coach that has offered a Newton kid knows who you are. If you did not have a Twitter or know any of these Newton kids through social media, i would guarantee that they would have every offer that they currently have at the moment. I do not want any beef and i am not hating on jkbtjc53, i am just stating facts. Have a great day!

As the true gentleman that he is.  Vester promptly responded to my inquiry:
"Hey good evening my friend! I trust that all is well! I can vouch for his efforts in getting the word out to colleges about our kids. And I do understand he comes across a bit abrasive to a lot of people, but his intention to help young men is well noted. There are times when he can be offensive but that’s truly not who he is. I really appreciate you and all you do for us. And it means a lot to me that you asked. Keep up the great work my friend."
Out of respect for the views of Mr. Thompson, who is a true gentleman and whose opinion I deeply respect, I will go no further on this.

From what I remember, at least when I was at the BE, Lamar goes after Newton kids. It's just that there's a pipeline from Newton to Lake Charles that McNeese built while Lamar didn't have a football program.

One big reason Lamar has trouble landing local talent is that 17-18 year old kids want to get out and experience college life and you can't blame them for that.  Another reason is that they aren't going to compete with FBS team for most kids FBS teams are after...I feel like they are going a good job at snagging the under the radar guys from SETX though and some have already showed they belong.  Rodney Randle from Ozen comes immediately to mind...believe Lamar was his only offer and he ended up becoming a starter at CB and KR as a freshman.  Got arguably the areas best QB from last year, one of the top RBs and a do it all in Adam Morse, Austin Krautz and Kendrick King last signing class.  Looks like Morse will RS this year, Krautz has seen action in all 3 games so far and King broke camp in the 2-deep at WR and caught his first TD last week.  They have also been successful in getting local kid to come home if things don't work out as planned at FBS schools.
McNeese has an absolute strangle hold on Newton especially if your last name is Foster.  The only Newton player I can recall signing with Lamar was Ramando Stewart, however he only lasted 1 season before he was no longer with the team.

Lamar does recruit Newton pretty hard, but i think they have given up on it since no one commits there. In the past four years, they have offer scholarships to Brent Spikes, Trevor Holmes, Romando Stewart, DJ Dean, Kevin Shorter, Calum Foster and Gabe Foster. The kids just choose other schools. I like seeing the kids at McNeese for some reason. 

Maybe they can get some Newton kids with those WOS kids and then they can win a few more games.

I see Newton dominating this game in all aspects. I caught the Silsbee game and i must say that this team is quite impressive. I hear they have guys injured and still have great depth. That will be the key to getting to week 16. But, let's just have the mentality of being 1-0 after each week. I say this game will be 47-0 based off of what i observed during week two. I am ready to see them face off against Crockett in which i believe will still be a three touchdown win against them.
