    Go to the 10 year forecast. Unless im not understanding how many kids per grade. I dont know when they would go to 5a . I just know the grade level of the current 8th grade is large 

    I looked at the 10 year forecast.  With the growth going on in Texas, especially with the numbers pouring through our southern border, this just looks like numbers that would keep pace with the upper limit of 4A D1.   Maybe if this turns out to be true, they squeeze into 5A D2 in or around 2030.  Maybe!  This doesn't show the growth at the exponential rate that say, the Austin area or even Barbers Hill has seen in recent years.

    According to Cal preps Lumberton 2022 (34) 2007 (21)

    Would you bet your entire fortune on every prediction Calpreps makes. They aren’t that great at predicting games between teams in the same season. I don’t try to make a living like they do with rating high school teams and predicting winners. I bet Calpreps has never had one of their people watch a Lumberton game so they didn’t get their eyes on either team.

    Well, Stafford had a good game plan on the defensive side of the ball and held us to a low score. Next week the guys have to tighten up on those penalties some more although I thought the one pass interference was questionable, I thought it was actually an offensive pass interference and the facemask I kind of thought was incidental. We have the talent to beat these guys, we just need to get the attitude to beat them. We're picked to win by Calpreps 38-35. Just for a little bit of trivia since the first time we got this far was in 2007, I diid a match up and it came out 2022 Lumberton Raiders 35 - 2007 Lumberton Raiders 22.

    The debate of 2022 vs 2007 is, and will always be, nothing more than speculation and who is better can’t be proved. However, for my money, 2007 is better.  They were playing up a classification against better competition, IMHO!  If this team brings home a state championship, then that might change my mind.

    Anyone who is a fan of Roschon Johnson go vote for him in Paul Hornug award

    I just tried to go to link to vote for him, but he is not listed.  I think I am too late.  RoJo is the heart of the Texas team.  Extremely tough and talented kid with a huge heart.  Hoping he has a long and successful career in the NFL!

    Does anyone know what the rules are for students transferring from one school to another as far as their eligibility for the following year. It seems I can point to several examples that have all been handled completely different.

    Like it is for the NCAA now, it is a free for all and has been for a while.  I have heard many stories through the years where the "richer" programs in the state have been able to "offer" jobs that are close to the district to the parent(s) so the family can move their kid in.  Probably hasn't happened nearly as much at all in the Golden Triangle as it has happened in the larger schools in Houston/DFW/Austin areas.  It's nothing new!

    4A D1 Area

    #6 Lumberton (10-1) vs Stafford (7-4)

    Friday 11/18 7:30pm

    BISD Memorial Stadium

    I wouldn't have picked this game location.  I would have rather it been Provost Umphrey if  each team was choosing a location close to home other than the home stadium for the flip.

    What has the last 20 years been for SOC? By the way, I am not LH. Just enjoying an arrogant fan base suffering from a loss to a team that they are really struggling losing too!!

  8. Interesting that the old Midland Lee, now Legacy, is the only 6A school in the rankings that is not in the 4 largest greater metro areas of the state.  The power in the top classification has long ago shifted to those areas.  Gone for the most part are the days of the smaller metros having great teams.  Beaumont and Longview did have the 2 teams in the 6A Div II championship a few years ago, but that was an aberration over the last 20 or so years.

  10. Yikes, we all knew it was probably going to happen though. They were pretty close last time right?

    Hearing that there has been growth in the last few years.  District has a bond issue up in the next few weeks for additional classroom space and facilities and a tear down and rebuild of the original High School building.

    I will be at the game in press box. I'll see if it gets filled.

    I agree, this stadium will suffice.

    Here's hoping that Beaumont proves us wrong and shows up in force.  It has been a long time since a school from the GT has gone this far in the top classification.  I really like that no DFW or Houston school has made the final 4 of 6A DII.

  12. She doesnt know yet why she is against it.  Give her a little time to consult  few blogs and she will have an answer

    She is for whatever Obama is for.  She was against Exectutive Orders when Obama was mouthing off in the 2008 Campaign about he detested George Bush for using Executive Orders, but now she is for Executive Orders since it is King Obama who is using them to push a treasonous agenda!!
