cotton84 Posted June 18, 2021 Share Posted June 18, 2021 I would have China Spring at 3…….they were real young last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BuckNut Posted June 18, 2021 Share Posted June 18, 2021 I would have Rusk, Jasper or Center at 10 but I know they have to have representation from all geographic areas that sells magazines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H3llR4z0r Posted June 18, 2021 Share Posted June 18, 2021 That's a distant #1 too. It's a shame they don't have just a ranking for the entirety of 4A. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikehoncho Posted June 18, 2021 Share Posted June 18, 2021 I think I would have WOS, PG, Celina and CS all ahead of Wimberly. And I might also have Celina and CS Ahead of PG. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrBuddyGarrity Posted June 18, 2021 Share Posted June 18, 2021 So who will Carthage beat this year in Arlington for their annual state championship? China Spring too low. I'm interested in how Bellville does this season. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every team wants to beat Carthage & a few have, but it won’t be a Cake Walk for anyone. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking just like the person above that it'll be another all East Tx matchup again, unless Celina throws a wrench in the plans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d0tc0m Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 Celina brought back a ton, added a few really nice looking pieces, and have some really talented youngsters coming up too. And the QB position isn’t in flux going into this year, which will be amazing. Graham will be a touch down this year, but Aubrey should be really good again. But I think Region I is Celina’s to lose. I’d be shocked if it’s not the Bobcats vs the Buckeyes in the semifinals come December. We’ll get to find out how legitimate Celina is right away. They play the Div. I No. 3, No. 7 and No. 1 (Melissa, Paris, Argyle, respectively) right out of the gate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
d0tc0m Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 These rankings look about right though. Carthage is the easiest No. 1 in the history of rankings lol. Gilmer also a pretty unquestionable No. 2 in my opinion. After that, I’d probably have WOS and Wimberley a little lower. I’d probably have China Spring and Sinton a touch higher. The Pirates were young and bring back everybody, so they’ll make noise in Region IV. I probably would have Navarro in the top 10, honestly. They had a decent group a year ago and bring back everybody. A couple other teams probably have legit arguments for being top 10, and will likely break in after a week or two.

DAWG91 Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 Did Salado lose a lot to graduation? A little surprised to not see them in there. I figured they'd be a shoe in for top 5. Even though the score in our game against them last year was 35-7, I think they played us closer than anyone else did. Guess it really doesn't matter, it's just pre-season rankings and anything could happen and they may wind up in there eventually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Center might not be as good without Horace and a new coaching staff settling in but they have plenty of talent. Jasper lost those monster O-linemen but they will be good again. Rusk will surprise a few people. They have a chance to be one of the better teams in 4A D2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SHillBuckeye Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 Looks about right, except PG in there at 5. They return 4 starters total if I heard correctly? They may get there in the end, and preseason polls always work themselves out, but that seems high for what they have returning. Celina is top 5 for sure.

I know one of those games for sure that I’d love to see Celina put it on the opposition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cowboyandchrist Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 I am ready to see the Dawg D against all comers. I want see what a year has done on size, speed and strength on this special group. The rankings look good to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sportsfanatic1 Posted June 19, 2021 Share Posted June 19, 2021 New QB from Carthage has a CANNON! Seen him throw. Hold Carthage under 45 a game and you've done something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure I'd put them at 5, but they may come out hot They had a really good 9th grade team, even without the RB who was on varsity. I would imagine several of them, now sophs, will get a lot of playing time on varsity. For several years now they have just reloaded, just a notch below Carthage - who has to try to reload most of their blockers this fall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have seen a few of their underclassmen report offers this summer, with at least 2 getting Power 5 exposure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
