badndn Posted November 30, 2014 Report Share Posted November 30, 2014 Anyone else feel like last night was the final nail in the cofin on once vibrant but now a dying program? Opening of Manvel and Dawson was first nail. Had kids moving out to be a part of something new and exciting. Ike was nail 2. Moving to 3A/4A nail 3 Realignment into the worst district in the state for football. Nail 4. And getting embarassed bad in the playoffs. Nail 5. How many kids that stuck around because it was Lamarque are now asking why and will be moving on to Dickinson, Friendswood, Manvel, Dawson, Pearland or even TC?

dayton Posted November 30, 2014 Report Share Posted November 30, 2014 Sad... but you're probably right. I feel the worst for community members like Mike Lockwood and Brandon Williams who have put so much time, $ and effort into getting those kids exposure.

AggiesAreWe Posted November 30, 2014 Report Share Posted November 30, 2014 La Marque could very well find themselves either closed or moved down to 3A DI by next realignment. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest MTJ Posted November 30, 2014 Report Share Posted November 30, 2014 La Marque could very well find themselves either closed or moved down to 3A DI by next realignment. Been happening for 8-9 years now. No secret Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kicker Posted November 30, 2014 Report Share Posted November 30, 2014 Very,very sad. LaMarque was synonymous with Texas HS football dominance. You couldn't have a conversation about how amazing Texas is when it comes to HS football without including Permian, Katy, SLC and LaMarque and many others. Such a historied proud program. Just 15 years ago I was there when a full crowd of LaMarque fans were doing their chant and they seemed like a giant. Last night, there were no chants and maybe a third of the fans that we had. Just didn't seem anywhere the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
badndn Posted November 30, 2014 Author Report Share Posted November 30, 2014 I noticed that to last night. No "WE ARE...LAMARQUE...COOGAS!!!" They seemed dead from the word go. Maybe its from not having played a competitive game in almost two months. They are used to playing a tuff predistrict then kicking it with the likes of FWood, TC and even Manvel for a while.

TradinUp BH Posted November 30, 2014 Report Share Posted November 30, 2014 LaMarque is like Willowridge was back in the day. Then they opened Hightower. Hightower was good for a couple of years then came along Marshall and Ridge Point. LaMarque has alot of kids at Dickinson, and look at them. It's been happening for a while. Also losing some to Texas City. Mr. Buddy Garrity 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
