  1. Both players bring something to the table:

    Smith is a game manager and has the ability to get the ball to everybody. He moves the offense down the field methodically.

    Forney has the most upside in regards to overall talent. He has the "big play" ability coaches like in a playmaker. However, he's very high risk/high reward in his QB play. He also can play WR/TE or DE.

    Nederland is returning 4 experienced WRs and have picked up Chris Cunningham from the basketball team (good size and good ups) who will contribute immediately. Coaches will pick the QB who puts the team in the best position to win.
  2. 1st: Forney showed some moments (MOMENTS) of good QB play. He has tremendous potential and some raw talent. I think he may have even thrown for 1000 yards during his starts last season.

    Now that I've established some POSITIVE points, I'm going to analyze his play/ability/work ethic.

    Here are some stats: quality collegiate/NFL caliber offensive lineman typically clock in at 5.0 seconds in the 40, while interior DT's clock in at 4.9. Forney says he ran a 4.85, that's not fast. FYI Dionte, don't try to prove you're fast (or not slow) by stating an average 40 time to prove people wrong.

    I think that his post was the longest run-on sentence I've ever read lol!
  3. I personally enjoy soccer, but that's neither here nor there lol!

    Nederland has #2 Dionte returning at the trigger along with 3 experienced wideouts in #12 Schlett, #4 Salenga and #9 Sonnier.

    The defense also returns quite a few with at least some game experience. DBs: #20 Kemp, #9 Sonnier, #85 Alpough, #24 H. Butler, #14 B. Butler and #10 Ridgaway. LBs: #45 Brown and #29 Delord; plus #54 Bill and #18 Carr on the DL.

    I believe that a productive off season along with the development of some talented kids from the freshman group will put the Dogs right back in the mix of things next season.
  4. I just hope the Dogs don't take Lumberton lightly, they've had our number the last 2 seasons. I don't think Neumann will allow our new found confidence blind us this week anyway.

    BTW - I don't if Raider fans should be throwing the history card out there lol! Given Lumberton has beat us the last 2 years. Other than that, Nederland has brutalized the Raiders.

    All this being said, I hope the Dogs stay focused snd punch their ticket to the dance for the 12th time in 13 years.

  5. Do any of the brilliant minds out there have some idea of who would play whom with all of the different playoff scenarios taking place?

    As far as I know, if Nederland and Vidor win:
    [b]Div I matchups: Goose Creek vs Central - Crosby vs Nederland

    Div II Matchups: Dayton vs Vidor - Barbers Hill vs PN-G[/b]

    Everything else is beyond me with all of the point differentials and head-to-head stuff, just hoping someone can step in and clarify a few things please  ;D
  6. With 2 weeks left in the regular season, the playoff picture is taking shape:

    PNG 5-0
    Central 5-0
    Vidor 3-2
    Ozen 2-3
    Nederland 2-3
    LCM 1-4
    Livingston 1-4
    Lumberton 1-4

    I guess PNG and Central have mathematically clinched a spot. But what do you guys think about the remaining schedule? Who do you think is in or out?
  7. I haven't seen much footage on Vidor this year. If its the same offensive gameplan that they've had against Nederland the last few seasons, then the one dimensional stuff isn't gonna work. Vidor will need to mix some play action in there.

    Also, I hope Dionte isn't a one hit wonder. He was very impressive against Livingston, and we can only hope he builds on his success from Friday.

    I look for this to be a hard fought close game. Nederland will definitely put some new wrinkles in for a perennial over aggressive pirate defense. Neumann typically will find a way to get his team to the dance.

    Nederland 20 - Vidor 14
