The one other entity is the Houston Sports Authority, probably the worst of the 3.  They don't have time for the UIL, they are too busy courting another Super Bowl.
While in the Metroplex you have to deal with one egotistical man, in Houston you have to deal with 3 egotistical bureaucratic organizations!

Yeah just went to state 4 yrs in a row.40 game winning streak....need to change the way we coach??I'll agree I would have done a few things differently against Silsbee but I'm not the coach and this is still a young team learning.I think coach T did a hell of job getting us to the semi's.But hey that's just me.

Actually, Mike and I just got off the phone about that and he told me that he and Gary had discussed that very issue before tonight's game.  And the conclusion is this:
Gary and John's broadcast is first and foremost a WO-S broadcast and it is tailored toward Mustang fans and the sponsors of the KOGT broadcast.
By the same token, Mike and Tim's broadcast is first and foremost a Silsbee broadcast and it is tailored toward Tiger fans and the sponsors of the SETXsports broadcast.
Both have been used by Texan Live and will be for the foreseeable the future but know that neither will change the tenor of their broadcast simply because it is being used as audio for a Texan Live game.

Silsbee, West Orange Stark, Jasper, LCM, Lumberton, Nederland, Bridge City, and PA Lincoln I think. I remember in the early 90s when districts were 8 teams deep and 2 teams made the playoffs. Once PNG moved to 4A, I think Silsbee went to 20-4A with Dayton, Livngston, Cleveland, Lumberton, and Jasper. Great football back then as well. 

LCM and Lumberton both went 2 rounds deep, Carthage is going down, Reg 3 Div 1 is kinda open in my eyes. Vidor hung tough in 5A, they are going to a lot less competitive district, the writing is on the wall is for them to be very competitive and excel greatly at the 4A level. But that’s my honest opinion, 

Highland Park just missed 6A by 10. 

Like I have stated, I really do not have a problem with a 4 team playoff system as long as every district has at least 7 teams. I just don't think it's a good system when 0-10, 1-9 teams make the playoffs but 7-3, 6-4 teams do not. That's strictly about geography and not about success on the field. A team should earn it's way to the playoffs and not be automatically placed in it or only required to win one game to get in. UIL should do whatever is necessary to equal out these districts. Then and only then would I view a 4 team playoff system as a valid system.
I do not really want to go back to a two team system but if it's entirely impossible for the UIL to eliminate these 4 or 5 team districts, then I say go back to a 3 team playoff system ( still keeping the divisional districts) and reward the district champ or #1 seed a bye in the first round. This will give some incentive for teams to win district titles and require a team to at least win a district game to qualify.
 

We're playing 1-8 Hardin-Jefferson and no offense to Hawks fans, but it's laughable that teams like this make the playoffs. Back when I was in high school, we had a pretty good 7-3 team that lost close games to WOS and PNG that didn't get in because we came in third in our district. We came up short and didn't earn it, but that's the way it should be. I get that it's cool for kids to have the opportunity to play in the games, but it's called the playoffs for a reason. 

Collins was the QB tonight
 

If you split 6A there's no need for 7A. 

Gee.....first it was nothing was done wrong.
Now, it is that even if something was wrong, it doesn't matter, they will still win.
You are starting to sound like Adam Schiff!

I think all stadiums, old or new, should be required to have elevators to press boxes that have more than 20 rows.
Abe Martin has over 40!! Press box is not the best either. That school deserves better.

Those steps are the worst. 

With these two Wing-T teams, I predict the game will be over about 8:45....😎

Hey JDawg I like how Lumberton rescheduled a game to play evadale but avoided to play y’all. 

Grow Up and Move on....

Seeing this just makes me proud to be a SE Texan.  So glad that our kids get to play in beautiful digs.  Complete contrast of what we had to play on 15 years ago..

How about to his young Mustangs about attitude. "If you don't bark when you're a puppy, you're not gonna bark when you're a dog".

FWIW, I don’t know of a BC fan that claims that as a win. 

Greg Hill, Ernest Anderson, Kevin Smith, Chris Cole, Earl Thomas and now Deionte Thompson in the NFL along with Deon Beasley and Mark Roberts in the CFL.
Tell me, Reagan, has any other program, since 1977, had as many players go on to play professional football?
You're right, WO-S has enjoyed the luxury of some great coaches: Steve McCarty, Dan Hooks and Cornel Thompson.  They have also enjoyed a fan base that let's the coaches coach and doesn't have some idiot going on a message board and questioning the coaching credentials of the coach at their school, simply since he doesn't like that coach, on a regular basis.

this thread was a fun look back

Silsbee        100 000 2    3   7 4
Bridge City  241 102 -   10 10 0
Congrats BC on the win. Nice place y'all have build, real nice. We gave them too many second chances early on for a team as good as BC. Got to focus all game long. 

Newton job has been posted. I think it has to be posted 10 days. W.T's. retirement farewell was today. Rings were presented. A lot of hugs and tears. This Christian man has not given up yet on a miracle recovery, neither have I given up. Keep your prayers coming. 

I was very impressed with Evadale.  They are a solid, well-coached team. Good luck to the Rebels for the rest of the season!
