I think Buna is a little to confident, just like their football team.  to much can happen in baseball. When Jasper won state 3 years ago, I remember HJ going into Bulldog stadium and putting a whippin on those dawgs!! Does that mean HJ had a better team that year???  NO!!! As for Kirbyville they have talent to compeat in 2A.  Buna was getting whipped in 3A before they dropped, so what to you think will happen to Kirbyville since they dropped down.  I expect the same!!!

Buna also went to state in 3A, and competed almost every year. We had a few bad years once teams like Jasper started falling to 3A.

yah in what 91. What happened to them when teams like Bridge City, Silsbee, Jasper Dropped down from 4A to 3A??  GOT WHIPPED!!!  There is a big difference between 3a and 2a.  I don't think Buna would have made playoffs in that 3a district.  HJ, Jasper, BC and Silsbee would have beat them. But in 2A you go to Little Rock!!  Big difference!!

Not to take anything away from your team or coaches, You have a great team, just don't underestimate those cats!!

PNG needs to come back down to earth, You have a great program but come on?  You are eliminating alot of good coaches by your excessive qualifications.  If there is a coach out there that has established himself to the degree you are expecting, and has the experience you are expecting, has the education your are expecting, then I am sure he will be on the list of schools you can not compete with.  Forget about finding a coach with the degrees and titles that would make your program look good and find you a "football coach" that can coach football, get along with the kids, and make these kids want to go out and perform and you will win games and that will make your program look good.  Get rid of the Ivy league mentality and remember your a south east texas football program and not Notre Dame

this is probably the most educated quote I have seen this year!!!  Total agree!!  Find a coach that will get you wins!!!

I am asking my friends on SDC to take a minute out of their day and say a prayer for this young lady from Daingerfield. Her name is Amanda Bailey and she was shot twice last night. Once in the back of her head and once in her back. Her daughter plays on my softball team and they are very dear to my heart...

She was taken to the hospital last night around 9 pm after suffering gun shot wounds to the head and back. She is a single mom that has two children ages 6 and 9. The doctors removed the bullet from her head and in doing so were forced to remove a small portion of her brain that controls her motor skills. As of this morning, she is still in ICU and is listed in "very" critical condition. I will hopefully be able to update some progress on her condition in the near future. Thanks in advance for your thoughts and prayers on behalf of Amanda and her two young children. She is a very strong willed young lady and we are hoping and praying that she will be able to pull through this.

(**I had read this on another forum and felt compelled to bring it over into ours. Maybe with our prayers we can help.**)

Oh my god. How terrible!! my heart and prayers go out to her and her family.

have not seen Kountze play but based on what they did to Nederland, I think I would have them higher. Kirbyville has a good team as well. Beat Jasper and I think they would beat hampsire and Lumberton as well. Nederland should be higher than both of these teams. Just guessing on what I have seen so far. Woodville is 2A

muscgrove-Kirbyville

totally agree.  Hope he can add on to that .526 batting average from last year in 3A. Ask Jasper how tough he is to get out. Man can he run down a ball or what!!!

there is a lot of smack talking on smoaky.com. saying were overrated, were to slow, our offense is predictable, there D is to good, were hot tempered and can't stand adversity, our coaches are classless. I can't wait till friday!!

Pratice hard men and lets take the wood to them!!!!!!

Look for Kirbyville to whoop there tails if they end up getting to play. Kville pretty much has there team returning and they dropped from one of the toughest districts around. Look for them to not hold back and try to dominate 2A just like there football team is doing.

hahahahahahahahaha kville will not even beat Buna this year if kville gets out of district then WOW im shocked there they wont beat Buna kville isnt a baseball school you just have to except that one:***( sowwy

What does that mean. Kville is not a baseball school?? yes they have a traditon of winning on the football field but people are missing the whole point here.  times change.  I can remember beating the snot out of Kirbyville in football when i was in school.  That would not be the case now.  The big factor is Kirbyville dropping down to 2A.  There is a big difference between 3a and 2a.  Last year Kville entered a 2a tournament in Kountze and won it then prcieded to win only one game in district. Kville returns 7 starters including a all-state plalyer so they will be competitive.  they will give buna a run for their money!!!!

I hate to get involved in the coach discussion (who's going where, etc.) but a point was made earlier about "showing the man the money". I'm just curious. About 10 years ago, I remember the Enterprise put out a list of salaries for the area and Lumberton was among the lowest at $42,000 per year. I believe the highest in Texas was the position at Stephenville at around $82,000 and, Wachoviak (may be misspelled) at Jasper in the 70's. Just curious if Lumberton is still the lowest paid position in the area.

Lumberton does in fact, have the lowest paid teachers in the area.  However, I don't think that's enough information for any of us to speculate on how much Credeur is paid.  There's a lot more to job satisfaction than money, but I guess some people haven't figured that out.

Lumberton may have the lowest paid teachers in their district but not in this area..Buna, Kirbyville, Warren, ect., have way lower district pay scales.  As for job satisfaction over money, money usually wins.  Why does Lumberton have such a high turnover in teachers???? Money!!!!

I thought Larry Haynes changed the program around in late 80's and early 90's. then left for more money near Fort Worth..what happened to the program after that. the bottom line for a coach is money talks and bull@!#% walks. LEARN FROM HISTORY AND PAY HIM!!!

ANAHUAC PANTHERS ;D

well at least you know you will make it past bi-district.  But I believe that stops their when those wildcats hit the field!!!!

Look for Kirbyville to make a run this year in 2A.  7 return starts including Randy Musgrove 3rd team all-state in 3A, and tons of sophmore talent coming.....GO WILDCATS :) :)

Like running a reverse in the 3rd????

Alvarez is classless in his running up the score, but he wins.

are you kidding me? running up the score?

thats why we ran the ball the whole fourth quarter. and we even had our jv o-line with all back up backs and ur saying we ran up the score. if u werent at the game u just need to keep ur mouth closed. plus they deserved to have that many points scored on them after running to the center of our field before the game on our homecoming...thats classless.

Hmmm I remember someone doing the same thing at jasper couple of years ago. to include sliding on the midfield logo.  so you say thats classless? 

I believe that incident happened after the game not in front of thousands of fans. not to say we did not act childish. and they were punished for that.

Alvarez is the most classy coach in this area. yes it was the JV putting up points!! and let me tell you something, Shelbyville deserved everthing they got plus more. not only did they run to the middle of the field and huddle around the wildcat pitcher, but they cancelled their 7Th, 8Th, Fres., and JV district games, told kirbyville that they did not have any teams, and went and played another team leaving kirbyville without games.... That is chicken#@$%!!!!!!!!!!!They deserved 100 put on them!!!!!

way to put the first one up in district L Train. Now blow out the next stop.  VIDOR!!!!!

haha

kville got lucky on this 1

Actually Kirbyville was ready for them Stangs this year. No such thing as "lucky". Its a good thing Vidor don't play Kirbyville because yall would get stomped!

we tied wos...

we would crush kville

If I remember right Jasper beat Nederland and PNG. and who beat Jasper.............how about them wildcats!!! The fact is Kville is not just a ordinary 2a.  They would most likely make playoffs in that 4 a district if not win it.  Try making playoff in this decade before opening your trap. As for the WOS vs Kville it would be a close game.  If WOS played the way they did against Vidor, Kville would blow them out!!!

Kville wouldn't win the 3a or 4a district...You'll have proven repeatedly you'll couldn't win in the district with WOS.

that was last year. we are talking about this year. kville went 3 deep last year and only lost 3 starters...... and like I said "they would MOST LIKELY make playoffs in that 4 a district if not win it.
