Who is Groveton?

Alma Mater of Rodney Thomas, one of the greatest high school running backs the state of Texas ever produced.
I watched him play against Schulenburg in the Astrodome back in the late 80's or early 90's.

Hey Grad, do the percentages again since 1980.  I think Newton only missed the playoffs once going 3-7 in '94

3700 YDS rushing in 1990....8400+ for his career.....truly one of the greatest.

[/quote] Trust me, I know how great he was. Hull-Daisetta played against Groveton and Rodney Thomas in the playoffs in 1991. Thomas killed us !! Later he went on to star at Texas A@M and then with the Houston Oilers.

If you are going by percentage and not total wins, well then I'd like to see how Hebert stacks up. They haven't been around for a while ya know ???

[shermdog]

Rock T must had made quite an impression on you 55. Did you go head to head with him?

Hebert would move to the top of the list, 135-29-7, a .810 winning percentage.

I remember Coach Walkoviak talking to me about Hebert and all of the trouble they gave Jasper back in the late 70's and early 80's when only one team from the old 9-4A juggernaut would make the playoffs. Those were some of the best Bulldog teams ever and we couldn't seem to get past those guys...

A few days ago, I watched an old VCR tape from 1992, pre season talking to Dan Hooks and Barbay about WOS and Newton. Other teams there as well. Great footage.  Two great programs and coaches. 

[EAGLE07]

I played against Hebert in the playoffs back in '81. Longest, most painful butt kicking I've ever taken in my life. They must've had 100 players on the sidelines and just kept rotating them in. We (Channelview) had an all-state stud RB ( Glen Langford-UT ) who they shut down. Down 7-3 at the half, we were already out of gas. Lost 29-3, if I remember correctly.....been awhile. ;D Playing SS, I squared up on Hebert's QB ( I think it was Davis, who went on to UH ) while he danced in the endzone, I pulled grass out of my helmet.  ::) ::)

[/quote]No Sir. My uncle was a stud linebacker in 1991 for H-D. #44 they called him the blonde bomber. He went head up with Rodney Thomas all night. My uncle picked off a swing pass intended for Rodney Thomas, as my uncle headed for the endzone Thomas slipped and fell down and still caught my Uncle from behind. What an athlete he was !! I myself played for H-D in the mid 90's, I also played groveton in the playoffs. The Horace boys were studs on those Groveton teams I played.

Alot of great players came out of Groveton.
[/quote]

They currently have a former player Lane Johnson playing TE for Oklahoma. He was their QB in high school.

[Tim Riggins]

Groveton won state 2A championships in 1984, 1989 and 1990.  Rodney Thomas played on the '89 and '90 teams.  Groveton is the Trinity county seat on  hwy. 287 between Crockett and Corrigan.

I played against him a couple of years ago.  He was pretty large and in charge lol.  About 6'7, and a cannon for an arm....

30.       Kirbyville    387 425 23 0.477


WOW!!!    You would think that kirbyville would have more wins than losses  

[Bucof2010]

Wasn't kirbyville a door mat until a few yrs ago?

[mustang]

Yes they were before Coach Alvarez got there.  He has really turned that program around.  He's quietly becoming one of the premier coaches in this area.

[trophyman]

Man i wonder what Kountze thinks about being ranked higher than Lumberton or Vidor and they had about a ten year no win streak
i still bet Kountze has the worse loss  in the 78 -79 season i believe to Orangefield (99-0) ouch!

[Bucof2010]

I've heard at one time ktz was making national news for an extremely long losing streak

[Tim Riggins]

they did, but it wasn't 10 years.

[Kville99]

and if i am corret they came out of that long losing streak by beating Kirbyville.  Thats the way I remember head Coach Larry Grissom telling the story atleast.

[trophyman]

lets just look at the last ten years i bet Evadale moves way up the list

[trophyman]

yea they beat kirbyville 3-0 it was a last min. field goal by wally whisenhant sorry wally for mispelling your last name.
