Lumberton Raider Fan Perspective

The original point was completely taken out of context by a few of you football geniuses. We have a guy who is being heavily recruited as an edge rusher and wasn’t being used as such. Adjustments were made defensively. Outside containment was much much better and defensive front was dominant. The O line was spectacular throughout district play. Overall best offense I’ve seen at Lumberton. Very impressed with the coaching staff. Some of y’all should have stayed in truck. 

Could the reason be that maybe during non district the coaches didn’t wanna show what they had?

Raiderfan4life made some very interesting observations and is not far off from reality. The fact that Lumberton came in with really high expectations and appear to be under performing, is cause for concern. I attended the HF game and saw a team that did not play with much passion and sense of urgency, players and coaches alike. My guess is Lumberton will be just fine once district starts and will finish 2nd or 3rd, LCM will win the district.

 

Sure am glad you were wrong about that. I for one never doubted my Raiders even when they lost to St. Thomas. Now it's time to take care of Palestine and see just how far we can take this thing.

With all due respect, you may be confused on the front and the coverage. And they do have decent talent in the D line, but I don’t think it’s the best in the last 10 years. 

Please elaborate on when you have seen a better D-line unit. Not sure what year you may be referencing.

Sounds like you should go get a bachelors degree and a teaching certification and get to work coaching! 

Yes, and I bet he look down on the field and tell you what the QB or coach is thinking. He is way ahead of me, the only one I have been able to figure out is when I see a baby squatting down with a strain on his face.

Well I coached Jr League Football, and didn’t realize until now that it qualifies me to give constructive criticism to the Raider staff.  For instance, when playing Vidor their pass defense did a wonderful job.  The Pirate receiver was covered, but they let Pirate RB’s run free.  One broke loose for 8 yards once.  Yes, need to tighten up that DL.

Hey, got on my 2018 Raider Basketball Playoff jersey.  Today I’m a Raider and Dist 10 fan.

Go Raiders!

Go Lions!

Coach, "Mayor" and Raider Fan, this bandwagon is loading up.

Umm ok but that's a complete 180 from your initial post. Congrats?

Ah I see. Your son was being recruited as an "edge rusher" and since he wasn't being used for "edge rushing" you  assumed all his dreams would die due to Reyes scheme on defense. A scheme that just won you and your "edge rusher" son a district title in a district with LCM, Huffman and Vidor, and a pretty good chance at a DEEP playoff run. Don't worry, I am sure your son will still be allowed to "edge rush" at Austin College, or whatever program told him he was being recruited as an "edge rusher".

Good God, if this isn't the most Lumberton thing I have ever seen. The team went 9-1 (with wins against some really impressive teams in the regular season), went undefeated in district, and at the end of the most successful season Lumberton has seen in decades you choose to COMPLAIN ABOUT and QUESTION defensive coaching strategies?!? smh...

I agree wholeheartedly, but calling it a "Lumberton thing" is probably off target. 🏈

    • The locals have almost finished firing the first ever Speaker of the House from Southeast Texas upon direct order of Trump and his minions.   It's a sad day... Locals have decided that being represented by the most powerful man in the House didn't mean anything.... they'd rather a political novice to represent this part of SETX.  And why is that?  He wasn't MAGA enough for them.  Who cares that it will hurt locally... What Trump says, goes.     Just yesterday I saw Trump on television demanding that we fire Phelan... How he's a RINO, weak on the border, etc... why?  Because he wouldn't overlook the criminal actions done by Ken Paxton, one of Trump's key supporters in the effort to overturn the 2020 Election and allow Trump to remain in office despite the will of the voters.   Trump never even mentioned Covey's name, and I doubt he would recognize Covey if Covey walked up with a cup of coffee.  Who cares that it's bad for SETX?  Not the R voters from SETX!   Then I saw Covey's preacher on a different ad tell a bald face lie.  Why should Phelan be fired?  "He put Democrats in positions of power in the House."  Really?  That's been the position of BOTH parties for as long as anybody can remember.  They ALWAYS give the minority party committee chairmanships.  But in 2022 the Rs decided that the practice should stop.  Democrat voters should not be allowed a voice in the crafting of legislation if there is a single majority Republican seat in the House, according to the Rs.  Representative Government?  Never heard of it, huh? Never did I believe that we'd have an abortion ban, constitutional carry, huge cuts for school property taxes, and Texas law enforcement being greenlit to enforce immigration law.  But it all happened while Phelan was speaker.  Without a doubt, the most conservative Speaker, ever.  But still a dirty RINO for not being MAGA enough.  It would be funny if it weren't true.   I've been following politics long enough to remember when Rs couldn't get elected in Texas... I'm confident that we're headed back that direction.  I mean, it's obvious that with population shifts we'll be turning blue eventually.  I think that the behavior of the leadership of the Republican Party is going to cause that shift sooner than expected.  I won't be surprised to see Democrat Senators and possibly even a governor elected within 12 years.  Maybe less.  The Rs will be a party apparatus without a voting base behind them.
