This hurts big time! Who will step up?

One thing that I have always had a problem with is that most of the top nationally ranked programs year in and year out are private schools. Most states allow the privates to play with the publics in the same playoffs thus they get to recruit the top talent to one team. Imagine if Kelly could play in the 5A State Playoffs against the likes of Katy and SLC. Most of the top area talent would flock to Kelly to get that edge. Then the public schools would be watered down. Look at the top teams from other states: St. X - Ohio (private) Concord DeLaSalle - Cali (private) Evangel Christian - Louisiana (private) Even Miami NW gets to pull from the entire district of over 100,000 students.

You are kidding right? Were you on campus in 2004? SHSU Pre Long: 4-7 2-9 SHSU Long: 11-3 One game from the National Championship (farthest ever) #3 National Ranking (highest ever) Most wins in school history Finished a close second for the IAA Heisman (Walter Payton Award) Broke just a bout every single game, single season and career passing record at SHSU. Attendance at Bowers was through the roof. SHSU Post Long: 3-7 6-5 7-4 And in 2001 McCown was just a notch below Long in his accolades and is in second in most of those records at SHSU. They did something! What a pompus jerk. Sure it would be nice to get a top notch QB for four years, but guess what, those guys don't want to go to SHSU or Lamar or any other FCS because they are getting offers to play on TV on Saturdays.

I think Tatums biggest problem has been the system and the lack of WR's. Johnson dropped a lot of balls last year ( a lot). And the fact that they only threw in obvious passing downs and ran the same stupid one step pump fake, three step pass deep play all the time really hurt him. He tends to over throw hi wide outs quite a bit, which I think is a product of having a big arm and no speed at wideout to go get it. He does throw a nice tight spiral and can chunk it deep with the best of 'em in the HS ranks. I think if Chaisson comes and Tatum would obviously RS his first year (no LU Footbal on 2009), he could be an asset in 2012 as a Junior after Chaisson. At the very least he could be a good backup.

Of you would with a name like Vidor.is.underestimated Central will win this district. From bottom half last year to DC this year.

Why am I not seeing it????

Actually there were two common opponents. Galena Park BH wins 35-30 PNG wins 33-0 Also PNG played Crosby before they scrapped the Spread and went back to the power game. That game would have been alot different if they played a few weeks later! After scrapping the Spread before week three, PNG went on a tear and averaged 27 ppg over the next 10 (including the playoffs). I say: PNG 28 BH 14

He has 22 total home runs between Low A (12) and High A (10) this season and he leads the High A team in HR with about half as many AB's. His only negative is he K's a lot and he is batting in the .230's. But I look for him to be in AA next season.

They will not be dissapointed. He was a real asset to LU the past two seasons during games and at practice with his play and his leadership and attitude. Also nice to see that he graduated. We will really miss him. I for one will be following his career. Good Luck to Boo.

I disagree. Exactly what do you disagree with?

It has been around for years. A prominent PNG player was busted for selling it several years back as I recall........... so it isn't relegated to just the so called wealthy schools. All schools have this problem.

La Marque

That other Mizzou player is J. Maclin and just might be the best WR in the country (he and Crabtree) and he is only a Soph. Top 10 draft pick in a few years.

Shouldn't good ole' Dan be getting penalized for having 12 men on the field. ;D

I remember a PNG - Ned game in the early 90's when Booby August (pun intended) made the statement in the local media that they (Ned) had some trick plays up their sleeves for PNG. With the score something like PNG 35 Ned 0 at the half, the run thru sign for PNG said "Silly Dogs...Tricks Are For Kids!" Classic!!! ;D
