21-5a is loaded with good RB's as well. I would like to see a list of both areas to compare. Any takers, 21-5a vs. 22-5a RB's. 

Here is why you won't ever see the names of 21-5A players on lists such as these.  They are in what I call the "media no man's land."  Too far west for the Beaumont area media to cover, too far east for the Houston media to care. 

You see, the Hearst papers (the Enterprise and the Chronicle) have split coverage in Southeast Texas (a reason why you no longer see Beaumont area schools followed in Chronicle articles).  That line is right around Anahuac.

Very true. Craig Williams is 3 star recruit I believe and if he is healthy is by far the best back in our district. He has had issues the last 2 years staying on the field but is blazing fast.

I'm honestly looking for Central's Foster, PA Memorial's Hines, and Silsbee's Thomas to have exceptional seasons.  Hines, well, he's Hines.  Foster had a great Sophmore season and last year, Moreaux shined.  Silsbee, it was the same situation, Thomas had an exceptional skinnier campaign, but had to take a backseat to Tyler.  

I also see LC-M's Winters doing great things.  

I also hear there a 2 headed monster at West Brook....

That sucks, that's why cougar14 is a chron.com man.

A. Thomas shined at linebacker last year. Is there anybody in particular that will be filling his spot at lb? 

We moved Trahan to qb from lb last year...  we missed him on the defensive side. 

I don't really know...  Thomas may be asked to play both ways this year, especially how good he was at LB.  Wouldn't surprise me...

I hate that... it always seems to me that the kids who play both ways have trouble finishing games strong, or making through the season uninjured. 

He'll do great no matter where he lines up.

It's possible.  A few years ago, in Vidor, Montana Q. Was an animal starting at qb and lb and was an animal at both positions and he got stronger as the game went on.  I think Thomas will follow suit this year....

It can be done. Back when I was in school Hanna was a beast on both sides of the ball! Very rarely left the field along with several others.

Yes, he was.  Always seemed to be hurt, limped on and off the field.

When the ball was snapped, 100%...never knew he was hurt.  Tough kid.

      Republicans don't deserve...

      Hold them accountable? Like here in Texas where we have, by any definition, the most conservative Speaker that we’ve ever had. He pushed through an abortion ban and border security measures, reduced school taxes, etc… and the people who put him in office are firing him for not being MAGA enough.    Every third commercial on TV is Trump (or somebody who supports Trump) calling Phelan a RINO and supporting an impotent replacement for the most powerful person in the House.    It’s 100% MAGA, and it’s 12000% stupid.    “oh, he didn’t do those things by himself” says everyone who doesn’t understand parliamentary procedure.

      Me personally I respect posters like @bullets13 @CardinalBacker they vote for a guy and can call out others in the party or the direction a party can be headed.... others on here fall "lockstep" with whatever happens and defend by all means is the mantra it seems... no need to call out names, it's probably you if your mad at this statement 🤣

      I recall prior to midterms the R's and the "red wave" would get America "back on track" etc.... they would end this and stop Biden from that blah blah blah, so what's the problem? It looks like a circus show from both sides and whoever can sit or stand with a straight face and defend it is a 🤡! Desantis would've been a slam dunk for the R's and he possibly would've got my vote... now they pick a guy who lost the popular vote twice lol (yeah I know that means nothing in grand scheme of things).. point being is the dude is highly unlikeable (I also know this doesn't matter) 👈🏾 just getting ahead of the deflectors... personally I hope the clown gets in there so ppl can see how ultra right the clown is trying to push America for... IF he wins in November you can bet he will be on a rampage for 4 years getting lil if anything done, will most likely spend his term for the same thing some of yall complain about daily, going after his opponents... but hey the D's do it right? So yeah it's cool if we do it SMH We're supposed to vote on policies etc while at the same time the person you vote for that made promises to change or fix this and that complains about his predecessor being the issue! It's all a joke What have R's done that's good for America since midterms?  What have D's done? And please leave your feelings out of this and be truthful if possible!
