    I guess so. Who was the FB I’m forgetting? We ran the full bone then. I’m forgetting someone…

    I’ll have to dig up my old yearbooks.

    Not sure.

    There is some footage of LP from 1979 against Clear Creek on YouTube though. Maybe it will ring a bell for you? I just checked and you're right, there were three in the backfield but I'm not sure who that third one was.

    29-28. At the end of the game. LP led 28-0 at half. Somehow, Lee wasn’t called for a single penalty in the 2nd half, and we were called for at least 2 every series.

    Lot of upset people after that one. Those refs never officiated again. The game was protested. But, UIL didn’t hear in time. Lee lost the next game. Memorial I think it was…

    That was the only game we lost that year. Beat Stratford, PA Jefferson, & some other really good teams.

    Remember it well. I was a Soph.

    Byars and Walker went to OU. Don’t remember Whitmore going.

    (I think Goslin is a play on Olin. 😉😜)

    28 to 14 at the half.

    Bubba Hill was the other running back.

    Goslin is what Baytown junior and Horace Mann junior mascots were. Red goslins and green goslins. A gosling is a young goose. A Gander is a male goose, hence the phrase what's good for the goose is good for the gander  Horace Mann is now the gators and Baytown junior is just goslins.

    No way. We have people from all around a lot from Deer Park for some reason. I know very little people from Baytown. A lot of us have been here most if our lives.

    Maybe.

    In mid 90s, BH had 1850 students total. Now, they have 7,300.

    Maybe they all came from Deer Park, but they certainly come from somewhere.

    You know REL has the 5A-2 State Champ Richmond Randle in-District, right?  Plus Iowa Colony and Fort Bend Marshall AND Texas City to fight with over 4th place?  Not exactly an “easy” District.  
     

    Where they’ve been the last half-decade, BTW, is a LOT better than RSS or GCM, regardless of schedule.  REL has beaten both handily the last 5 years straight.
     

    Agreed with everything else you said, though, and I’ll add they’ve got some good kids coming up in their feeder Jr schools as well who are staying right where they are.  Looking at the prospective GCCISD rezoning maps it looks like both possible outcomes are going to be kind to REL as well.  Things are looking up over on Market St, especially with a HC who knows what he’s doing.

    At the start of this season it was decided that 9-5A-2 wouldn’t be covered here.  I hope that next year the folks in charge decide otherwise.  It’s gonna be interesting…

     

    I know. I was just trying to be fair. Lee has been way better but this year it was not quite the same mismatch with the other two Baytown teams as it has been. Good to hear that BJS and HMJ are bringing 8n some talent. 

  5. I just reviewed those formulas for new schools and my understanding is it only affects the first year or entering into competition. I don't believe any calculation occurs last year when they have already gone through an initial opening calculation three years ago. This is their second alignment.

    I am not saying they did anything on ourposebut just like George Ranch when they won State, they get the advantage of being a growing school that catches enrollment that gives them 5a division 2 numbers. Those numbers were taken last year. I am sure today they have 6a division 2 numbers enrolled in the school and eligible to play ball.

    They will get two years of this advantage then likely fade into obscurity like George Ranch did
