Jims and Joes > Xs and Os.  Every time.

Check out the replay of Dallas Highland Park beating the Manvel Mavericks in the SC game. Manvel was one of, if not THE most athletic teams in TX last year. Highland Park might have been the least athletic State Champion. It was not even close in athleticism. The Xs and Os beat the Jims and Joes.

I watched every second of the game.  Highland Park had 6 seniors that signed to play D1 football..including a quarterback that signed with an SEC school.  Yeah just because they didn't seem as though they were as fast as Manvel DOES NOT mean they didn't have an athletic team as well.  They had athletes all over the field too.  Give me a break.

Just because HP had a bunch of white dudes, does not mean they were "the least athletic State Champion." That is one of the dumbest things I have read on here. How you could watch that game and come away thinking HP was not athletic is ridiculous.

There's not a football coach in Texas (5A and down) that would have a problem with that "nonathletic" team that HP had.  Not one.

Do we have an Announcement to make?

Shepherd has a job posted on THSCA, but the contact person is NOT Miles Robison?

Expand  

They have to go thru the principal of the school they are getting hired at. Miles is involved trust me. As far as I know that is always how the hiring process has been done in Shepherd. I could be wrong.

Lets set up a track meet between Highland Park and Manvel, including field events. OK, wise guys, lets do this and place your bets. 

I wonder how many Scots would place in the top ten 100 meter results? Maybe 1 or 2? If that? 

FAIL.

Matt Stafford prolly wouldn’t beat a lot of Manvel Mavericks in a race to this day, but is a better NFL quarterback than anyone they’ve put out.

I agree, but that was not the question. 

BTW, Trivia Question:

Who is the reigning 5A State Track Champions? 

I'll give OS and Tiger2010 a hint..........It ain't the Highland Park Scots!"

Silsbee had faster kids than Carthage...how did their football game work out?

Speaking of..I thought we were referring to the football state championship game.  Was the original question asked about HP vs Manvel in a track meet?

Which team has more State Championships in Football? Manvel or Highland Park...

Again, that was not the question, but it does support my point. . 

HP's Xs and Os beat Manvels Jims and Joes.

When challenged about the relative athleticism between HP and Manvel, the track meet analogy would be very good metric to apply. Manvel would smoke HP out of the meet, proving their athletic dominance, but Highland Park's Xs and Os (and grit) won the SC! 

This is so easy a caveman could understand it.
