    coach bear reacted to BHFAN in BH / Baytown Sterling Scrimmage   
    Wow thanks for the update!  Agreed even knowing this is just a scrimmage being dominated by a lower class team like that can’t be good for the Rangers. On the other hand hearing that the Eagles not only moved the ball, but was stingy on Defense in encouraging for the Eagles.

    coach bear reacted to Blockdownandkickout! in BH / Baytown Sterling Scrimmage   
    Sterling was really bad, BH scored 7 times to Sterlings zero. Sterling didn’t even get a first down till the third quarter. The scrimmage ran four 10 min quarters with a five min half. The Rangers are in for a long year. BH looked good but it’s hard to tell considering the opponent. 
     
    Sterling needs to do whatever they can to make sure that when realignment happens They get out of 6A.

    Just read a letter on an Aggie website from the mom of the quarterback at Tomball blasting the UIL. The young man in question lives in that house and seems to have been living there a while. Everyone is blasting the forest brook coach who to me is the courageous one. Like I said earlier, HISD is fed up with their good players leaving for the burbs. Tomball s district schools voted 6-1 to NOT let him play, what do they know, probably the same that the Forest Brook coach knows. There are so many questions in this case, it is an easy decision for UIL to UPHOLD what Tomball s district already decided. Sorry, but RULES are RULES and in today’s society everyone is looking for a loophole. I love all Texas pro, college and high school teams, but rules must be followed.

    My prediction, just feel that Laporte with the coaching change , especially a defensive minded head coach, will do well , tough kids are still there, talented kids there also and a small hometown feel with support. A special place in my heart for them since this was my last place to coach two years ago before retirement.
    Putting Deer 4th in hopes of helping Brook. So my prediction is done with my heart and not my head. I’m just glad I’m not putting money on it.

    On a side note, I haven’t seen anything about the dad. His dad was a tough running back at CE King in the 90s who wore a huge neck brace. I was DC at Crosby then and my former cougar players still rub their heads when they reminisce tackling or trying to tackle him. Definitely great genetics.

    Oh, keeping him wasn't an option.  Keeping him from playing for another team is.... and that's exactly what just happened.  
    The fact is this.   If a parent chooses to transfer their kid for athletic purposes, that parent has forfeited that kid's right to play.  
    That's how it is, and that's how it should be.  
    How is Zeke helping the Cowboys by refusing to play out his contract?  How is AB helping his team by refusing to play because he can't wear his lucky helmet?  
    Why would you even sign your kid up for a team sport if all that you're concerned with is your kid?  Go buy him some golf clubs, sign him up for fencing lessons,  or hire a boxing trainer.  Those are great sports for kids whose parents can't understand the concept of "team."  And parents like that raise kids who are crappy teammates.

    8 cases went in front of the state committee, 3 of the DEC decisions were overturned.  So if there was concrete evidence that the move was not for athletic purposes, this particular state committee would have been inclined to overturn it.
    As to the Adam Coleman article, I'm not sure it paints Coach Terrell in the light that some earlier claimed.
    Here is Adam's article:
    This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up While it is correct that Coach Terrell did not comment after the ruling was made, he had plenty to say during the hearing as Coleman noted in the article and there was certainly a compelling case presented that Demas moved for athletic purposes.
    1.  When Demas' family notified Terrell about the move, Terrell testified that he made efforts to help Demas academically but that the family fought them "every step of the way."  If a family is concerned about a student's academic record, they would gladly receive help.
    2.  Demas' had a close relationship with Houston area trainer "Rischad Whitfield" a relationship that Coleman was well documented with Whitfield himself commenting that he a "liaison" for Demas and current Tomball quarterback Hunter Dunn.  Anytime I am on a committee and I hear of a transfer and a "liason".....yeah, I am gonna lean toward a move for athletic purposes.  Especially when there is testimony, as Coach Terrell did, of reports of this liaison "shopping" Demas and Dunn as a package deal to LSU, Mississippi and Oklahoma State.
    3.  Demas' grandfather met with Tomball head coach Kevin Flanigan before the move.  Flanigan did confirm that the meeting was strictly about academics and campus life and not about the football team.  However, under questioning from one of the committee members, Demas' grandfather admitted he did not meet with the Tomball principal.  It is kind of telling that a member of the family who claims to be concerned about academic status would speak to the school's football coach and not school officials.
    4.  And perhaps most telling, while the family is concerned about the academics at North Forest, only one of three Demas' brothers, Demond, transferred to Tomball.  Two younger brothers remained enrolled at North Forest.  That tends to put a big dent in the move for academic purposes argument.
    5. Despite concern about Demas' academic status, he remained in the district for 2 1/2 of his first three years in North Forest.
    After the problems that UIL went through with the AAU in basketball, it is quite easy to see why the UIL SEC ruled the way that it did.
    It is not a "crybaby" coach that triggered this.
    Perhaps, the best argument that the Demas family could have made was to show the SEC a copy of the 2019 Dave Campbell's Texas Football magazine that has North Forest competing for the district title in 12-4A-I while Tomball will likely be left out of the playoffs out of 8-5A-I. But they attempted to focus on an issue that had more holes in it than a slice of swiss cheese.

    HISD just got tired of having their good athletes go to suburbs. There is a big influence from workout companies and AAU on many of these athletes. Rules are rules. If he or his family couldn’t present compelling evidence to the state then the state would agree with the local district. The state wants local districts to enforce UIL rules.

    Coaches weren't the crybabies changing schools.
    This kid will never suit up at A&M.  If he actually does, it will be one of at least 3 colleges he attends.

    Good news, always love teams that lead with defense. A little different from previous Crosby teams. They’ll get tested early with New Caney, Manvel, and W O S. The kicker is just a sophomore I believe.

    coach bear got a reaction from BADSANTA in Best QB in Silsbee High School History??   
    Been looking for an old timer to mention a name of someone I played against, William Arline I believe, QB from the 77 Silsbee team that beat us , Marlin Bulldogs, at Stephen F in the second round. He was explosive and scored from about 60 out late in the fourth to re take the lead and beat us. He may not be the same caliber as later quarterbacks, but he was dangerous. This silsbee team also had Graham, Schankle ( future horns) Eddy Roby and Craig Mcgallion. Donnie Little and Dickinson beat them the next week by a touchdown in the dome on the way to the state championship. We were so heartbroken especially when we found out the dome was the predetermined site of the next game in 3A playoffs. The DOME in the 70’s was a big deal. Is my memory of the quarterback s name correct? Thanks
