    It's just a culture thing.  We won a State Championship in football in 1966.  It's not a shortage of athletes, it's a lack of development. I think we've got something like 26 District Championships in baseball, and everybody knows that our district is tough.  Really tough.  But we compete every year and win a lot of them. We've had numerous kids go on to play at the next level.  

    I hate to call anybody out, but there's a certain pitcher at UT who is already signed with the Red Sox minor league organization.  He played a qb in high school, but honestly never developed the skillset beyond his natural talent.  Didn't play his senior season, either.  We've got a kid that I think is a Senior that's had D1 offers as pitcher.  He started at tailback his sophomore year but quit for his junior season.  First thing that's noticeable is that the kid obviously has an arm.  Why wasn't he under center?  No qb background, which is the norm in BC. I get it... why take the pounding that comes with playing as a back in our offense after the brutal 2-6 season that we had in '17?  But don't kid yourself into thinking that there aren't any talented athletes at BC.  We had an all-world catcher that graduated last year, I believe, and never put on the pads.  Think about that.  Catchers are almost by default hard-nosed, quick kids.... and he was one of the best.  A kid like that would normally be laying the wood on people all fall, but not this kid.  He'd be on the sidelines in street clothes, warming the qb up... and throwing better balls that the qb, too.  Just a "baseball guy," though. 

    Imagine the tradition and community expectations that exist in places like WOS and Newton... then do the exact opposite. These kids are typically the sons of guys who didn't suit up either.  That's how you create Cardinal teams like we typically have. We had our kids in youth football and when they wanted to play little league we signed them up for that, too.  It was astounding to see all of these athletic kids at the ball fields that we'd never seen before... because they weren't playing youth football.  

    If you take a group of undeveloped kids, but especially a group without a qb prospect on the team, then try to run the spread like we did under Stump, you're not gonna have any success, ever.  I think that Dubois was on the right track for our personnel, but the Slot T with "0" passing attack is only gonna get you so far.  And like I always say... if you'd rather smoke a little grass and hang out at Whataburger instead of hitting the weight room... be ready to get your you-know-what handed to you by guys who are willing to put the work in.  Just see "2018" as an example of that. 

    All I’m saying is you need to change your name because you sure aren’t a Cardinal Backer. Things will change don’t worry and when they do don’t try to jump on the train. 

  17. Nederland 60 Bridge City 65/FINAL

    in High School Boys Basketball

    Why can’t TxHoops just give BC some credit they beat Nederland. Stop saying it was the officiating, no one can control that and give them some credit. Both teams played hard and on that night BC Won. Stop saying Nederland lost it by not playing thier A game. Cardinal Backer don’t even start you never where behind the football team and we don’t need you for basketball either.
