I have 2 teenage Indians, and neither play football..lol

The coaches see these kids Every Day in the spring and Every Day beginning with two-a-days in early August. They know what they are capable of. If some kids are playing more now, or maybe playing multiple positions now in the playoffs, it’s because the coaching staff knows that’s what gives the team the best chance to win. They are not going to play kids simply because they are the backup at certain positions where they may have injuries, they are going to play kids in those positions that they believe will help the team get wins and move on!

The question was about Allen not Danger field 

Soon it won't be acting if your weapons don't quit dropping out to injury.

Regardless of who plays for both sides this will be a great matchup.......  Both schools support there teams and kids better than lots of schools around.  Should be a large crowd on hand for this game.  

ok Watched the Ned / Lumberton game, Ned is supposed to be at full strength, well im here to tell you next Friday night the streak will end! Wont be #7. Cornerbacks were playing ten yards back off the line of scrimmage against Lumberton , come on man really. Someone from the Bulldog faithful said that their conerbacks would smother our receivers please, All I can say is Ned better get ready to watch the playoffs from the cheap seats this year because that is where they will be! Central won by more than 14 so does that mean that they are in, because they will punish Baytown Lee next week just as PAM will blow holes all in the hull of ROBANADANAS Black Pearl, only thing I wanna know is what kind of excuses will they have to say about PAM when they roll out of the boneyard 10-0.  Im ready to early out today and go watch PNG destroy OZEN, can see second string in by late 3 rd quarter!

Not just All-State...All-American!!!

Morse is also one of only a couple of PNG QB's to be offered a scholarship to play QB at the next level. That speaks volumes!

So true newspaper boy! i love your work by the way. Any way QB's today are better than QB's of yester year! ill always take Ricky on my team. but give credit where credit is due.

I thought the top 5 QB list by Stats was solid...I agree, AMo is in the conversation because of the numbers he put up for his career, but it's pretty hard to knock Stats and his choices...the guys he listed put up numbers and won big games for the Indians.  Can't knock a guy like Stats who values championship hardware and big wins vs. pure statistics.
1. Richy Ethridge
1a. Dustin Long
2. - 4. A lot of great names to consider...David Fry, Donnie Schexnaider, Denny Duhon, Ryan Robertson, Jay Musser, Brennan Doty, Adam Morse, and probably a few that I am forgetting.
If you had to have one QB to lead a drive and get a W, it is hard to overlook Richy Ethridge.  All he did was play great in big games, collect a lot of Ws, and he put a state championship in the trophy case with a lot of his awesome teammates.  Of course, Dustin Long had "the drive" vs. Schertz Clemens and took the Indians down the field in the 4Q at Kyle Field to get a W and send PN-G to state.  Hard to argue with 1 or 1a.
Good discussion...good stuff about PN-G football.  Would like to hear the opinions of others.
Go Indians.  Peace.

I played on 75 state team i have seen a lot of NDN football,and stat God must have forgotten about Morse kid.ill let him explain his Madden top 5 to us.

i was about to rip stat guru new butt with all the Morse stats. He holds almost all of them.

Morse gets no love for the Top 5?

Stat Attack where you at? i have been watching you troll this web site for years running you mouth. Im a long time reader first time writer. I have forgot more stats than you will ever know.

Terry was a true all around athlete. he actually went into baseball and played in the minors. grown man status!!

The two team per district playoff format started in 1982.  PA Thomas Jefferson and Beaumont West Brook advanced to the playoffs in 1982 with Alex Durley's Bruins getting on a roll and winning the whole thing over Fort Worth L.D. Hurst Bell.  TJ won district and WB won state.
In 1983, WB was the district champion and TJ beat PN-G for the second playoff spot.  PN-G had a good team.  The Indians came up just short vs. WB at The Reservation, I think the game was decided by a FG (17-14) if my old memory is correct...and then TJ beat PN-G at Memorial Stadium 34-21 on a wet sloppy field.  Coach Ethridge left PN-G after the '83-'84 school year.
In 1984, WB and French represented 22-5A and the French Buffs shared the state championship with Odessa Permain's MOJO.  The French playoff theme was a soulful tune "Solid as a Rock" (I don't remember the singers) and the Buff defense was solid as a rock.  I remember going to the French v. LaPorte game in the Astrodome.  The Buffs crushed LaPorte 48-7 or something like that...it was a blowout.  I want to say LaPorte had negative total yards in the first half.  The Buff defense dominated.
1984-1988 were lean years for the Indians.  Declining enrollment due to the oil bust, but the ISD was still big enough for PN-G to be in a tough 22-5A district that had WB, French, soon to be Central when French combined with BC-P, and TJ.  Once PN-G dropped to 4A in the late 1980s, winning returned with Danny Malone's 1989 team that went 12-2.
You guys in this thread are bringing back old memories.  Good stuff.
Go Indians.  Peace.

Denny was a great guy with a cannon... Not real mobile, and not much winning in those years..

RJ is a different style QB. Very balanced attack. Long was a good runner, but not like RJ. Then again, I don't know if RJ will be the pure thrower that Long was. I mean, Long set records in the big 12. There was a guy by the name of Denny Duhon in the early 80's that was the size of a line man playing QB. Guy had a rocket for a pass. He died in a car crash at a young age. 
 

Your correct, I was thinking his senior year, but that would be WOS again. Runner up junior season.... Then Musser had DC 92.

I think you would have a different opinion if they would have recovered the onside kick. Garbage points don't put you in position to win a one possession ball game. I guess Tom Brady, Eli Manning, and all the other guys known for comebacks must have garbage Superbowl wins since they won those games when the defense got stupid and let up. Roger Staubach must have a garbage career, he made a living off beating idiots in the 4th. CAPTAIN GARBAGE, right. I am sure that before the Bills won the 1993 championship game, that the Oilers coach, Jack Pardee thought that the Bills were just scoring garbage points. We didn't win,  but its YOUR teams fault that they couldn't stop the leak at the end because with a good coach and a disciplined team, that should never happen. When is the last time that happened to WO-S. That's bad coaching son. 

i was a freshman and witnessed that 89 GROWN MAN PNG squad. Ron McGill was a man child

I really don't think winning by 5 pts means we "got the brakes" beat off of us. 

We have 3 capable receivers, plus a back that can catch as well.. If you do not double Mczeal, he will have a big game. If you do roll a safety on him, you open up our best WR... and if you drop everyone in coverage, you open it up for the best Sophomore in the district, quite possibly the state.... Pick your poison... I think everyone learned a little about R.J. after the PAM game.... He is up for the task no matter who you are... Buckle up, its gonna be a fun ride!!!!!!

RJ will be fine, trust me the kid can ball, Mczeal I worry about the other receivers will get open, If LN will go man I will say your CBs get burnt, They will have to double team them to stop them! you cant double cover everyone, and if they get caught sleeping RJ gonna run wild

our receicers wont be smothered by your short cornerbacks, I see our receivers having a good productive night as well as the rest of our offense.
