How do you know for a FACT that the 17 secondary as a whole is not as good as the Cobb-Benson secondary of 15? You guys might look up Donta Stuart.

I have not read anywhere that any LV secondary player has an offer. Correct me if I am wrong. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those 2 teams gutted each other. Was fun to watch, but it would make some coaches cringe. That was still one of the best wins in the history of the Carthage program. No matter what Sota was #1 and on a huge winning streak. Up near 30 if I remember correctly. Great win in the history of the Carthage program regardless if the 2 teams played any defense or not. And that was the week we were really introduced to a now almost famous teenager Keaontay Ingram. All three all staters that were missing played defense and we knew our defense that year would be our eventful demises. Even if we won that game LV would have throttled us.

Do you think the 2017 LV secondary is as good as the 2015 secondary? Inquiring minds want to know. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has never won a title taken many team deep in the playoffs in his 30 year at CS. Surratt has been loaded in the time he has been there Maybe the coach before just didn't take advantage of the opportunities given to him. Williams, Bell and now Hulme are probably the best coaches in the region. Surratt is a great coach and has taken full advantage of the talent he was given no doubt about that. He has a great offense mind and makes great adjustment. But if you can't say he hasn't had talent in those 10 years. Give Carthage talent to any coach over the past 10 years and I bet they have at least 4 titles. I call BS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soooo, if you or me hasn't seen them play on a consistent basis it's just an assumption at best. I'll say this I have liked the other side of the story that coachkells has given. Just don't know if I agree with the Surratt-Williams comparison. If I had to pick a HC today out of the two I would pick Surratt hands down.

We will see Fri night if my two cent evaluation of talent is worth three cents! Even if I had stats and video with commentary you would not agree with me so we can just agree to disagree. I too am happy coachkells joined in the conversation. It’s always nice to get a different perspective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the past 10 years we have had talent, no doubt but any Carthage fans will tell you that we've had many more talented teams in the past. This is the best team we had in years but looking at Surratts other teams. We've had A LOT more talented teams and Carthage was always mediocre. So to say ANY coach is very foolish. We've had many and only ONE has put it all together. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you watch the end 2015 game Surratt said he got out coached. Same staff from 2015 with some slight changes. Think all the sudden things are going to change. Five state championships in 10 years and it is a push.....lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think any coach could do it but any of those could of. You could make a very, very strong argument that Williams has better talent year in and year out. As a matter of fact I think if you put up a pole on who had more talent year to year La Vega would win. I have only been following La Vega for 3 years but they have reloaded every year with top tier 4a talent. What I think these boys are probably doing different theblast 3 years than the LV teams of the past is playing disciplined football. Bell is different. He isn't coaching with the kind of talent they have at La Vega. Last D1 level ball player I can remember for China Spring was Mike Hicks. I know they had a couple ball players at LB last year, but I'm talking sure enough big time talent. LV has had prolly 7-8 since then. But I might be wrong. I don't follow Centex very closely.
