Tarkington kids may very well learn "what it means to be a man", that we be something the community can hang their hat on. But they will be losing in football due to "no talent".
For the folks who believe that "Tarkington has talent to win" and that "all they need is a good coach to win a State Title", please remember this prophesy 40 years from now: "Tarkington is/will be tragically slow and weak with no quantifiable football talent. They will never win a championship in football".
According to you, Tarkington has similar talent. For clarification: You believe Tarkington could have similar results "if they get the right coach"? the only thing holding Tarkington back is that "they have not got the right coach"? Is this correct?
Yes, "all the previous coaches had the same bad luck". And every coach that ever set foot in Tarkington was a "bad coach". Based on their horrible results? Because Tarkington has talent similar to Aledo, Carthage, and Stephenville?
Agree 100%. anyone who believes that talent in Tarkington is similar to Liberty Hill or Stephenville is living in a fantasy world. No one in Stephenville or Tarkington ever had a day in their life where they "saying the same thing" as Tarkington.
Agreed, I dont understand why anyone would want to post their thoughts in a forum? Forums are not designed for posters to provide their thoughts an opinions.
Ok, how many years has it been since Vance left? How many years was Vance in LH? How has the program done without Vance? Were they in the State Championship this year? Without Vance?
????What has been their record since he left? Have they played less than 13 games in any season? Did they make it to the title game this year? Semi-Final 3 years ago? Seems like they are doing decent? Did Vance win the title every year? Did Vance's successor have the same winning %? or better?
Tarkington definitely has a "chance to win some games". Make sure you play Huntington, HD, WH, or Hardin. That is what they (and Tarkington) are for: " a chance to win some games" and "homecoming opponent".
The good thing is that there are playoffs and rankings mean nothing. Will be interesting to see what they are ranked 3-4 rounds into the playoffs when all the "deserving teams" are being eliminated. Rusk likely has the best pitcher in the state and he was not available until last week. Expect a "miraculous" turnaround for an "undeserving team".
