Is it yet another poster that changed his name ? Ha ! (I know...I know whom he is). Anyways...my sarcasm detector is turned on to "full blast". Be that as it may... Longview is "arguably" the hottest program in the State of Texas in either Division of Class 6A with the current 26 game winning streak AND now having won 36 of their last 37 games...so I suppose anyone could say they have literally returned EVERYONE and it appear that they're making a salient point...ok ?!? Haha yeah. The 36 for 37 is insane. Hope I can make it up for the game tomorrow and we'll chat. Have you seen the 1937 state championship DVD? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then WHY BOTHER even having one...huh ? As IF you don't care...please ?? Yes...I totally agree that the Lobos are proving it on the field !

Yes...I totally agree that the Lobos are proving it on the field ! We shouldn't have polls in HS football, to be honest. Playoff spots are determined by wins and losses on the field. And from there, the wins/losses determines who move on to advance. Polls are pretty irrelevant. Yes, it's nice to be recognized and respected as a program. It's even nicer to prove the naysayers wrong. Do you remember 2002 when the DFW media disrespected Longview even after the Evangel win? And even moreso when we lost to Lee/Lufkin? It was SO sweet knocking off 10-0 Garland and 11-0 Dallas Carter, partially BECAUSE of the disrespect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You seem to care significantly about it, talking as if we're being disrespected. "Please" Not a single person will remember where we were ranked come May if we lose in round 1, or win in round 6. It doesn't change a single thing on the field, it doesn't change a thing in the playoff bracket. So no, again I will repeat myself again, they do not matter. But if you want to go watch some Louisiana football, then go right ahead cause there it actually matters. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Champ1000 Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 I really do not wanna jump ahead but who are some teams to be on the look out for. My guess would be Vandy they had a great Defense last year . That Amarillo team still there? BWB in my honest opinion probably will not be there. Westlake looks strong .

In 2004, Coach King reminded us SEVERAL times that Dave Campbell had us picked 3rd in district. Especially in games against Mesquite and Tyler Lee (the teams picked ahead of us). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They only include you guys cause the lobos are in a District with metroplex teams. East Tx as whole generally gets disrespected as whole. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well district projections/predictions are different than state rankings, where prior to this year, most voting had no idea who they were voting for/had never seen them and just voting off known names. I enjoy predictions and projections (obviously). State rankings, meh. Even so, LONGVIEW being amongst all the Allen, Lake Travis, Duncanville and North Shores of the world is an extremely high nod to this program imo. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ANTI Posted November 13, 2019 Share Posted November 13, 2019 Tbh, discussing returning starters when it comes to Longview yearly is tricky because we have depth and rotate depending on situations. It's part of the reason I knew this defense would be so good despite losing players like Lister, Jacob Johnson and Javontae Wriit. Example: Should Tyree Hale be counted as a returning starter for next year? Robert Pierce is the starter at that back safety position but has been limited. Tyree has started 4 straight weeks now and played a ton in predistrict. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Honestly I'll support him wherever he decides to go. He's also played a lot of high level select baseball. He missed all last baseball season recovering from a broken wrist. He's not sure if he wants to go all in on football or get back to playing baseball in the spring. I had a coach that's sent kids to A&M and Texas tell me he's a 5 tool kid with major college baseball talent. Temple doesn't have much of a baseball program though. I'm for whatever makes him happy. Baseball is the way to go...damn football Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gametyme Posted November 14, 2019 Share Posted November 14, 2019 I think Schertz Clemens has a real good shot to beat Westlake and get to state. They knocked off Judson end of year. They're extremely dangerous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
