The 2017 team was way up there in pure talent, it may have been the best, 1991 was unbelievable too. 2008, whew! 2010 and 2013 were deceptively athletic. 2013 had a few receivers well over 6’2” and one of them was 6’6” and all those receivers could run, including Rutherford (at 6’6”). However, there are many Bulldogs teams from the past who had more talent than the ‘09, ‘10, ‘13 and ‘16 state championship teams had. The current coach makes a huge difference just like Rodgers does for Argyle. I am picking Argyle by 3 points in a toss up game with LV. 1978 Dawgs Quarter Back and NFL all pro safety for the Vikings. Audrey McMillan 1983 Dawgs at the time had the second fastest guy on the planet Roscoe Tatum John Booty Dawgs, played 9 year NFL safety for the eagles The list can on and on but guess what none won state championships. I truly believe Coach S would have 10 or more with the Dawg teams of the past. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carl Lewis beat him by less than 100 hundredth of. Second. In a 100 meter race. it was on the front page of the Dallas paper, I forgot what year. It was when Roscoe was at TCU.

My guess would be if there was a chance of him leaving for another HS that would have been last year when Lindale was open. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eaglesone Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 Well i have no idea about other people but I did. With his bro being the superintendent and him already having a statue and name on the stadium in C-town (future) yeah i thought it was a possibility. I never heard one thing leading me to believe that either, probably was never discussed but i didn't think that was very far fetched. It is actually pretty damn cool to work with your brother.

Other than the last state championship team, we've had teams more talented than some of the other state teams. Man this is a great Carthage thread! BTW I think there is some kind of silly little game going on in Waco this weekend, but who cares about that when we can talk Carthage, Carthage, and more Carthage!

Well, I can say I think LV will almost always have better pure athletes than Argyle, but I think Argyle has the better coaching staff. Should be a great game.

cowboyandchrist Posted December 4, 2019 Share Posted December 4, 2019 This will be a knock down drag them out kind of game. This may be the best Argyle team (offense) that they have ever had. Le Vega is not as good as last year (defense) but their offense can score at anytime and from anywhere on the field. It is simple to me. If Argyle gets two stops by their defense, They win. I don’t believe Le Vega can match Argyle score for score. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
