It is apparent that UT is a school that Roschon has set his heart on playing at for a long time.  Whatever you think of UT, it is great when a kid gets to play ball at his dream university.

Some programs exist in a different space. I think everybody understood what he meant. Would've been different if he said A&M or something. 

I haven't heard that. However, most "transfers" can't make it with the grueling demands of the "Mustang Way". No homerism here , seriously, but there is no other HS football team in the area or maybe even the state that can compare to the physical and mental demands of WOS practice. Yeah, just practices. Honestly, my first college practice had me confused. I was so used to a certain way that I honestly thought it was a joke. Trust me, any former Mustang that was lucky enough to keep playing beyond HS will tell you the same thing. The only way I can describe playing for WOS is military. That's the honest truth. Put it this way, we could beat a team 73-0(yes it happened) but if we made even a peep on the buss ride home, we were running stands. Either that night or the next morning if the game was on a Friday. Trust me, I lived it!!

The Mustangs return 2 on the offensive line.  And my "concern" is also the line, like kicker said, Mandel Turner-King), Moe (Morris Joseph) and TeRon (Brown) left some big shoes to fill along the D front, as well as guys like Ronald Carter.  Moe and TeRon also were big on the offensive line, as well as Ryan Ragsdale, a 3 year starting center.  The playing time that the backups got last year should help with that transition.  Of course, some of those answers (although incomplete) will be coming on Friday night.

please Texas isn't a premier program, Whens the last time they played for National title, yeah that's right when Vince Young played QB. Im not knocking them im sure with Hurst  at Alabama he would and could have been playing for a national title, although I do like the coaching change that Texas has made should make them a hell of a lot better team. Like I said this is RJs dream I say go for it son, doesn't matter where he plays I will be pulling for him except if they play LSU lol

Rankings means its almost time. I will say this in 3a newton will be in the state semis to say the least and I'm telling everyone to watch San Augustine in 2a . heard they had a very talented team 

Newton is no. 3 in 3A-2 ,,The other teams ahead of Newton are 3A-1. Gunter and Lexington are the two teams ranked ahead of Newton in Div.2.
Four days until scrimmage. Newton scrimmaging Jasper should be a good match up. Jasper is going to be real good this year.

Don't underestimate the impact that Brian Barbay will have on that Jasper offense. His move from Newton to Jasper could be a huge difference maker for the bulldogs. 

We will take all the help we can get . Suppose to have a couple of move ins that's going to help also 

It's all about defense this year. The offense should be good enough to beat everybody we play. I'll be listening on the stream from here in New Mexico. Let's go Dawgs!

YES still has flattop

Kirkland? You mean the guy the fine members of the Jasper community cussed at as he left the field a few years ago after losing a hard fought game in the playoffs? Coach Kirkland is doing fine and is better off out of Jasper, but unfortunately you are still there. Coach Barbay has it under control, if he needs poorly worded and spelled opinions I am sure he will reach out to you.

I got a kidney transplant back on March 24th and been back at work for over a month. 100% healthy and ready for football season and basketball. Look forward to meeting a few of you guys in the stands. Be safe out here in all the heat and good luck to everyone!!! 

Too bad he and Weisbrod won't play together. That could have been special. 

Pakronos, How you gonna do Shug like that. Last year as a Sophomore, he got PNG to the third round. The same amount of rounds as PAM made it to after bumping down from 6A. If you're an athlete, you're an athlete know matter black, white, whatever. You keep bouncing around the race deal. PNG doesn't get anymore Regional or state exposure as PAM. Heck, look at the athletes that's came out of PA, now look at PNG? You're argument that Shug is getting more exposure because he goes to white school is laughable. College coaches go to where the athletes are no matter the make up of the team. He did run into a buzzsaw against PAM, but what helps Shug is his grades. If you're a really good athlete with tremendous grades, guess what schools are going slobber over you. Sounds like you got some jealousy my man. Now, I'll take a seat and eat my popcorn to see what you spit out next.

What other offers? When UT calls, you answer. He has a chance to play for one of the premier programs in the nation, under one of the premier coaches in the nation. This is a no brainer and I look forward to cheering for this kid for the next 6 years or so!

Yes, congratulations to Roschon, and his big brother, who's as excited as Rochon is - and should be.  I think UT & Rochon will be a great fit.

Congratulations to him. He will only get better.i know it's early but if png sort out there defense issues they will be hard to beat for the next 2yrs.

If ya don't know now ya know-Biggie Smalls lol

Did not realize he was the ESPN Top QB for 2019. Congrats! 

I am so excited. #HOOKEM

Hmm... sounds like Crosby.

That puts LCM with 3 football coaches short. I hope we can get some hired

Levi Moore has been hired as an assistant.
