  1. Congrats to Nac on a hard fought game. #24 was a nice back and #81 was a good looking receiver. Thought except for one play in the 4th quarter, the game was a well played and clean game. Your Dragons did you proud.
  2. In the discussions on site for Rd 2 games, HP rejected Rose as a neutral site. I believe Nacogdoches (SFA) was proposed and rejected by HP as a neutral site. HP selected Ford Stadium at SMU as its home field and Texas High's "Home" site was Independence Stadium in Shreveport. In the "Coin Flip", Texas High won and the game will be played in Shreveport as Texas High's home site. It is not a neutral site. Therefore if the two teams meet in the next couple of years, the game automatically goes to HP's home site. Interesting tidbit, apparently HP called today to see if Texas High was willing to go to a neutral site at Rose in Tyler.
  3. The reason Gilmer is so popular is they have finally finished the road construction in the city. Has nothing to do with their football team.
  4. Great coach. For Ohio State the timing couldn't be worse.
  5. I think maybe Texas High will travel by air. Bombs away!!!!!!!
  6. Texas High begins competitive football in the 8th grade. 7th grade is an "athletics" period to train, but no competitive games.
  7. I was hoping to get the team stats on Texas High but with a gazillion local teams in the the playoffs, the Gazette staff (short one) understandably had a busy week. Season Scoring Stats - per Massey Texas High Schedule Strength - #4 Offense - 36.5 Defense - 12.3 Best Offensive Game - Lindale - 62 Best Defensive Game - Sulphur Springs & Atlanta - 0 Worst Offensive Game - Mt Pleasant 17 Worst Defensive Game - North Lamar, Tyler JT, Findlay (OH) - 21 District Average Score - 31.2 - 10.4 Nacogdoches Schedule Strength - #10 (Impressive) Offense - 19.3 Defense - 19.2 Best Offensive Game -Center.... 43 Best Defensive Game -Center ...0 Worst Offensive Game - Lufkin (understandable) & Dayton 0 Worst Defensive Game - Lufkin (understandable) 43 District Average Score -21.4 - 19.3
  8. Daily Sentinel Link How the Nac paper sees the game. TIGERS check out the predicted score. Show them who are the kings of East Texas 4A football.
  9. Texarkana Gazette Link Look back over the regular season games.
  10. At 4-6 they have no business in the playoffs!!!!!!! Right!!! Atlanta has a couple of excellant running backs with Steiger and Falls. They have a couple of weeks left in the tank. There record will trap a couple of teams they are stalking.
  11. That and it is a grass field.. Coaches like the artificial in the playoffs. I am not even sure it is available for high school games.
  12. Quiet day.. Hope everyone from Nac has a safe trip to Tyler. I am looking forward to a hard fought game Friday night and everyone stays healthy.
  13. I bet there is a call into the UIL by 9am. I think HP will have a hard time with this one. It is only 13 miles further to Shreveport than Texarkana. It is 9 miles from Highland Park High to Texas Stadium
  14. Fletch reported it on the 6pm sports on Shreveport Channel 3. Have to take care of Nac.
  15. Game if it occurs is Friday 1pm, Independence Stadium. Reported by KTBS Shreveport. My understanding this only is for THS vs HP. Apparently NAC v HP are doing their own thing.
  16. By the way get War Memorial out of your heads. Arkansas is playing their state championships next week. I doubt it is available.
  17. It would to close but I think you are right. I think HP would have 70% of the distance. But you could play in Natchitoches or Ruston.
  18. Colt enters the field of play and Texas inhales and A&M exhales. Aggies lose and aren't able to fix the problem at the top.
  19. Texas High & Paris were the fastest teams in the district. Lindale had a couple quick players but not as a team.
  20. Didn't know Teddy Kennedy was a Longhorn fan!!!!!!!!
  21. I think they would find the fieldhouse quite quaint!!!!!!! As the district is buying property around the stadium it is losing some of its charm.
  22. I think NAC/Texas High coaches haven't been able to resolve a site for WK 2 with HP. What I have heard is Texas Stadium is out as they don't have anymore slots. Personally that is a blessing. I hate the dump. My guess is because HP will not agree on Rose, talks between the three schools are suspended until Saturday and the winner of the NAC/T-High game will individually work it out arrangements for week 2. If Texas High wins, Norton is not going to make it easy on HP. He feels Marshall got unjustly criticized for the State Championship game in Tyler last year. HP lost a coin flip after not objecting to Rose as a site. Then went running to the UIL for relief after they lost.
  23. Texas High currently has two D1 commits for 2007 signing - Mallett and Tolbert (Rice). My guess some others are being looked at various levels. Gilmer has wr and QB. Any others that have committed?
