Can we get back to focusing on Lee extending their winning streak against Crosby this week.

It will be interesting to see what Lee does at QB. They played QB2 about half the time to let QB1 slide out to receiver where he did some pretty good damage against Clear Brook. QB2 looked ok, but made a few ill advised passes that would probably be pick sixes against Crosby. Clear Brook broke some long runs right up the gut. If they had 250 yards offense, they probably got 200 of it on four runs up the middle. I have a feeling that this will be like the PAM game for Lee last year. They will be in the right places at the right times but just not athletic enough to make the plays and a barrage of long Touchdowns will occur. Will it be streamed somewhere?

Demographics continue to shift and teams that were once powerhouses become also rans. Happened to Willowridge, The Aldine schools, the Alief schools, will happen eventually to the Klein and Spring schools. Probably Katy as well. People will just keep edging out further into the burbs. Fulshear and Iowa Colony will be the powerhouses in 5 years.

These aren't Kalief Muhammad's Alief Elsik teams. They went 1-9 last year and got outscored by 300 points. They lost to FB Austin in week one. Austin was 0-10 last year. I think playing Elsik these days is not much different than playing one of the weaker HISD schools.

BH by 35

38-23 Ganders final

Lee is up 13-7 in 2nd quarter.

Looking at Hudl, Brazoswood looks like a team with a good coach that knows their assignments and is serious about executing and playing good football. Sterling looks like the same Sterling we have been seeing for a few years. Disinterested, confused and poor execution.

Doubt Sterling gets any area ranking votes this week.

King is a 6A school that has jumped in enrollment about 700 students in the last five years. They are on the North Shore schedule of going from afterthought to power house. They are even in the same area over there, same caliber of athletes. Think about the trouble Crosby had with Ridge Point and that was when Ridge Point had barely crossed the threshold to highest classification. Imagine them playing Ridge Point now. That's the same as playing King. There will never be a scenario moving forward where Crosby will be able to compete with CE King. They are a few years away from being like North Shore, Westfield, etc. Entrenched as favorites in the region in the highest classification.

I figured after I hit reply.

With the first team? They had three consecutive plays that went for 75, 86 and 65 for three tds on three plays. Maybe their second team brought it way down.

Anyone that thought Crosby would stay within 30 of King was delusional. King has probably 22 of the top 25 athletes on the field. It has nothing do with injuries or a fumble. I don't want people that aren't watching the game to be misled. King would beat Crosby by 25 or more ten out of ten times. They are probably averaging 35 yards per offensive play

Sorry to make things confusing earlier. I went to the Lamar Hudl and noticed the QB had the most views of any of the roster and then saw that he just moved in from Canada. Perhaps he will play more next year as he appears to be class of 2024.

What happened to the receiver for BH?

Interesting that a qb from Canada moved in to Lamar this year. His Hudl highlights are all Canadian football. Not ideal size, but he looks like he can sling the ball around. Wonder what brought his family all the way down to Houston.

Those links don't work for me.. These rankings do look a little more like what I would suspect from this district.

GCM and Sterling have both had horrible coaching for a while. Lee had horrible coaching for more than a decade but now has one of the better head coaches in the district. Prior to Finn showing up, Lee was 4-45 the previous five years and they have now gone 23-17 the last four years. They don't have the athletes to play with the big boys, but they get the most of what they do have. Maybe I am wrong about Sterling. It's just that they have done nothing over the last half decade to make me believe they should be getting top ten in the area votes. They have better pound for pound athletes than Lee for sure and GCM has better than both of them. Guess we will see.

So now Sterling is getting top 10 votes. Are we all being trolled here or what's going on? Did Vince Young Jr move in over the summer?

Nothing I have seen from Sterling leads me to believe they should be considered the dark horse to make any playoffs unless we have expanded to 6 teams. Their QB, who was pretty much a one man show, graduated. I don't see how they will be as good as they were last year even.

Exactly him. I always look on YouTube to see if someone has uploaded some highlights of him in high school. I saw him play against Sterling on the freshman team first game of the year and later that year he was up on varsity playing on a team that eventually went to the state semifinals. He seemed like a cross between Tony Dorsett and Lawrence Taylor. He must have had 8 sacks and 250 yards rushing the game I saw him. It was against other freshmen, but man he was good. Future NFL player David Givens was evidently on the same team in Humble I later found out and I didn't even notice him. That's how much better Mills was than everyone else. Sorry to detail the thread.

He looks ok. He ain't no Leo Mills as a freshman though.

Ganders won 3-1. Don't know much about high school soccer, but they have sharps town next and they seem to be a good team.

Good to see I am not the only one that has noticed what Finn has done at Lee. John Wooden had a quote along the lines of success is doing your best to become the best you are capable of becoming. I think Lee has really reached their full potential of what they are capable of being these last three years. I hope he stays a while.

You think Liberty Hill would do better if they switched to the spread offense? I feel like they are maximizing the talent they have and achieving the optimal outcome possible with the talent they have on hand. Lot of other teams that throw the ball a lot would love to trade places with Liberty Hill these last few years.
