24 1A TUFF OR WHAT


Recommended Posts

Ok, the top half of 24-1A is probably as tough as it gets, but 22-1A is every bit as tough as 24-1A top to bottom. 22-1A consists of Grapeland (5-0), Latexo (3-2), Lovelady (3-2), Slocum (2-3), Groveton (1-4), and Alto (1-4).  Alto and Slocum were both ranked #6 and #13 in tabc in december and both are missing the playoffs at this moment!  Grapeland and Latexo should be ranked and are every bit as good as West Hardin and Big Sandy (Grapeland beat Goodrich).  The main difference in this district compared to 24-1A is that there is no gimme games like Evadale, High Island, and Sabine Pass, all 3 of those teams would finish dead last easily in 22-1A.  Groveton will come in last in 22-1A probably and would finish no lower than 5th in 24-1A.    If Slocum, Alto, or Lovelady were in this district they would have a great shot at 3rd place easily.  Every game in this district has been within 20-25 pts and there has been several games decided by less than 4 pts.

Do the 1-A districts send 2 or 3 teams to the playoffs?24-A is a solid district but I'm not sure how correct the polls are .Big Sandy and WH are both very solid clubs but HD and Spurger records are not real strong ,I think Spurger is 13-13 and HD IS 11-9 I believe.Not knocking either club because I know HD is young and Spurger has lost some close games,I think both of them may be a year away.Best of luck in the playoffs to whoever makes it out of this group.

24-A, is a very tough district. The top 4 teams all play well at home, have great fan support and excellent coaching. Whoever can win on the road, that will be the X factor. On the negative side, SP, HI and my Rebel's are NOT GOOD. Too be a GREAT league, there must be the threat that anyone of the bottom schools could pull the upset...Not going to happen this year. Overall, this is a quality district with 4 excellent teams at the top, Only 3 will survive.

Hey bobcat, do you know where Grapeland played Goodrich? Have they beat any 2-3a teams? Sounds like there are a few tough districts.

I was told that our regional tournament could very well be tougher than Austin this year!

Ok, to answer the question to the original post, yes, i do think there is a harder district than 24-1A, which would be 22-1A.  Now that i've thought about it further, i dont think Spurger and Hull Daisetta would make the playoffs in 22-1A, which means only 2 teams could go.  On the other hand, i believe 4-5 teams in 22-1A could make the playoffs in 24-1A.  So therefore, i guess that would mean 22-1A is a harder district. Another district i would add that is just as tough is district 19-1A with the heavy favorite to come out of region III,#2 ranked Martins Mill, along with Lapoyner, and Cayuga, which are very solid teams.

Grapeland played Goodrich at Grapeland.  Grapeland beat Palestine(3A) by 15. They beat trinity and tatum (2A). They lost Madisonville (3A) and Buffalo (2A) by 1 pt, both very good teams.

Broaddus is down a little from last year after they lost their point guard but will play both West Hardin and Big Sandy close.Chireno may pose some matchup problems for WH and Big Sandy both thwy have some very good shooters.Haven't seen West Sabine.Playoffs will be fun to watch on the small school side.

Saw Broaddus and Chireno play tonight. Both solid, but I would have to give Wh an edge over both because of matchup problems and I would give BS a definite edge over Broaddus and a slight edge over Chireno.

Chireno and BS would be a fun game to watch. Probably be 100-98 bacause they would both concede to pressure and running.

Just kiddin on the 100-98. More like 75-70.

WH gives Broaddus big matchup problems and evidently losing this forward dor the rest of the year has hurt them. They are still a competitve team, but out matched by BS and WH. Maybe even HD.

Chireno is all about pressure and hot streaks. Get a team to play smart and steady, break the press, you'll have a good chance.

24A will be tough again next year. BS, Spurger and HD will all be good again, and I look for a couple of the other teams to be a little better.

    • Where were the 8 Omaha teams in D1's preseason top 25 poll... 2. Florida 8. A&M 9. Tennessee 13. N.C.State 14. Virginia 15. North Carolina Kentucky - unranked Florida State - unranked
    • That TDS is really flaring. Now do Biden. You have way, way, way more material. And keep that bitter "you are better than me" jealousy tone you have with Trump. You know Biden, the one you want everyone to vote for instead of Trump. Somehow you didn't acknowledge my pleas for you to die a painful death. I was quite certain that is how you would have interpreted my previous post. I guess when your focus is Trump 24/7, nothing else matters.
    • I have a better one. The point that nobody wants to acknowledge is that Dems are crossing over to vote Trump in the primaries and in the general so he will win the presidency. That way Trump will get the blame when the Dems implement their sinister plan to deport all of the minorities in the country. They have already laid the groundwork...convincing everyone that Trump and Republicans are racist (without providing any proof). Then it will be just a matter of time to execute their White supremacy plan of the great purge of the dirty, unwashed, heathen, non-Whites that roam freely in this country. I think my theory is more viable than your theory. Maybe we can get some other ridiculous scenarios so we can start a poll.
    • But that’s what Trump’s fanboys don’t understand.  When he talked about sexually assaulting women, y’all laughed it off as “locker room talk.”  When it was proven that he raped E. Jean Carroll, you cried that it was all an injustice… a lie. Even though he’d already confessed to doing the same thing to other women.  John McCain has suffered and sacrificed more for his country than practically anybody, except possible gold star families… and Trump called him a loser or something to that effect. “Oh, it was a joke that no one was supposed to take seriously.” But when Trump, after disrespecting the sacrifices of one of our most valiant, y’all are like “just because Trump didn’t go to Omaha Beach doesn’t mean he isn’t pro military!” Really? All you have to do is listen to what he said about McCain’s service. Not McCain as an opponent, not McCain’s political views… about the fact that the man was tortured, probably raped, and who knows what all else for over five years for swearing an oath and putting on the uniform.  But all of y’all supposedly “pro military” people just laughed along with Trump. “Good one, Sir! Maverick my new-hind! Filthy Rino!”  I don’t understand how the same people (y’all) who probably always say “thank you for your service” to any veteran still support a guy who craps on the ones who suffered the most on our behalf.  It’s baffling. 
    • Wow. Do you actually believe your little scenario has any chance of alleviating you of your moral immaturity? Deflection at it's best...or worse. You seem to be a sad case. If you died today, I would be remiss if not attributing your cause of death to severe TDS, and of course, Covid. Look at that. I just made a joke about your death. You did not get offended. Nobody was offended. Not one person will accuse me of being hateful towards fellow human beings. But yet, you hate Trump because he made a similar crude comment about McCain. You tried to attribute that comment as evidence Trump hates the military. What grade level of schoolchildren do you think is laughing at you for that "less that adolescent" (hint, hint) comment. You used one crude comment in an attempt to justify your TDS. Now, when called on it, you try to deflect the whole topic. You are certainly not having any fun with this, but you sure are providing entertainment for the board. It's a shame you can't join in on the fun. I think even Big Girl might be to the point of giggling at the shamelessness you are exhibiting.
