  1. With the intense crown on that  field , I could easily see the field being alot narrower than normal. If the drains on the sidelines are not pumped out ,then you could see water from the sidelines to the hash marks. That would make things really interesting , there would be a power running competion and there is not enough field to spread out.

    Personally, i would run pumps on Vidors side and stop up the drain on Crosbys side so they are standing in a foot of water.

    hope Crosby folks aren't scared of the dark,its difficult to see at night walking through the woods to get to the stadium!!And dang it will be muddy,better not wear nice shoes!!

    To top it off,  Harvey took out the visitor concession stand. Another one is being built but Im unsure when it will be completed so even more walking than usual.

    I believe a muddy field does favor Crosby, the mud hurts the pulling lineman and the cuts the backs make. The running game that it helps is straight ahead power running games, that Vidor has not showed but may have. The muddy field also makes it difficult to cover receivers. This is why the BH game a couple of years ago turned out the way it did. 

    BINGO !

    Evidential, Visor has gotten a lot better since I've seen them.  But at the end of the day, all Vidor has is the big FB, and he can go.  But  Vidor will fight and Matthews will have a few tricks, but it won't be enough.  

    The MECCA - 45

    Black Pearl - 24

    Vidor must of found a HB after the Silsbee scrimmage because he is pretty darn good from what I've seen. I havent had a chance to watch the fullback because he has been out all year until last week and I didn't go to that game. 

  5. I agree that Vidors offense suffers in the mud. Not so much because of fumbles but because it relies on quick cuts. 

           A spread team should have the advantage because afterall the recievers know their routes and the defense does not. Someones always open if even for a brief moment and timing is crucial.

    Would be nice to see one of those kids running collegiately. I guess I compare it to having a Devwah Whaley come through...would like to see a kid like that running in our offense. Nothing against our kids...y'all know how much I love 'em.

    I actually made more Central games than Vidor games during Devwahs' senior season.  I loved me some central and was sad to see them go.

    Rick also came just milliseconds behind Ivory "Chopper" Williams in the 100. That was a fun showdown. Along with Rick, Troy Maddox not only had tremendous linear speed, he had some sick moves. Johnny Travis, and Doug Sims were great powerbacks. Dwayne Anderson didn't have blazing speed..but he had the best balance out of anyone I've ever played with. He was like watching a pinball get bounced around. 

    Maddox was my favorite to watch especially on kick off returns. Vidor used to put their best athlete on kickoff return back then but they got away from it because of injury risk, im assuming.

    I guess I have to disagree. But only because I am biased lol. Two names. Rick culprit. Graduated 04 went to Arkansas for track. Ran a 4.3 40. And Bolinger. I think he had atleast 7 60+ yard TD’s when playing for Vidor. Maybe even more. I think I would classify that as breakaway speed. I mean he gave Alex sezar a run for his money and that kid went to state for track and field. But I am a bit biased lol.

    I believe Rick Culbert had the fastest 40 time at both LSUs' and Arkansas' camp that year.

    The Pirate Defense and Offensive Line are really shining this year. Our special teams need work especially kicking which is usually a strength with us. Running backs are about as talented as they ever are...we never have break away speed. Gage is a good QB and manages the team well. We'll see in two weeks where we stand when we get Cosby then PNG but I like our chances vying for one of the playoff spots.

    Coaching is the biggest strength we have. Jeff and his staff are doing an outstanding job putting out a team that competes even though we keep losing dozens of kids every year. I'm thinking we may be 4A by 2020. Call me Homer all day long but we're in the playoff mix every year which says volumes about them.

     I agree for the most part.
