  1. You are correct. The schools will rotate, and still use Memorial Stadium, and Toyota Stadium. Not only is this venue spectacular, but I think the coolest part is the home team will be walking onto the field as the Cowboys are finishing practice.
  2. In regards to Pittsburg and Gladewater, I think your best bet would be traveling to Gladewater as they play Carthage. That one should be pretty good. Pittsburg travels to Crandall.
  3. 17? They'll have that in the 1st qtr. I'm seeing a high scoring game, hopefully not like last year! I'm thinking a more probable score will be: GIL 42 LE 31
  4. It went ok. SH went 1-9 last year, ND went 0-10 so anything would be an improvement for either team. In the live portion, SH "won" by a couple TDs I believe
  5. With Gilmer's extremely tough schedule (toughest I've seen in a long time), I'd be really surprised to see them go undefeated, let alone "roll". They have the potential to be really really good, and should win district, but I think every game will be tough. I don't really see them rolling over anyone on their schedule, but all they know how to do is WIN. It seems if you play them within 2 tds, it's a moral victory. Every team is different every year. This isn't last years team, and certainly not 2014's team. Time will tell. If they gel, and stay healthy, they will be hard to beat. I think they come in this year with a better QB, so should be interesting, especially if he gets protection from the OL. Going to be some really great district games this year, and the ATL game should be for the district title. Let's hope everyone is healthy when district starts, and let the games begin!
  6. I remember Van having some unique, but great consession food. Egg rolls, homemade donuts, etc. Winnsboro has great food too. I think if you roll into a stadium and they have a pit or smoker going, chances are there will be some good grub!
  7. With official games starting in a couple of weeks, who has the BEST Consession food? Top 3....GO!
  8. For what it's worth, I'll throw my two cents in. I can't say about the control portion, but I watched the live quarter. Looks like both teams have work to do, but all teams have work to do at this point. Kilgore's QB looked real good. Team overall looked solid. Good size and speed. Gilmer's DL needs some work, as does the OL. Not sure what was going on with Gilmer's corners, they got beat quite a few times. I know they were missing some players, DIV 1 players, so perhaps that's not a good indicator. Kilgore will be real good this year, and if Gilmer's OL & DL get it together, they will be tough to beat. I know for one, I would not like to have to tackle Gilmer's RB's. Big and fast.
  9. I think 8 teams is a bit much? Looks good though, but Hallsville? How about swapping them with Tatum or maybe Gladewater?
  10. Mailing OF the Buckeyes? Don't think so, but with their schedule, I don't think they go undefeated. Three things I'm concerned about going forward. 1. QB. I thought B Rice should have been the QB last year. He's big and tall, but does he have the mobility. Decision maker? Deep passing threat, or more important, with their timing pass offense, accurate? Poppy seems more agile and faster, something they haven't had in a couple of years. Can he make that split decision to tuck and run if nobody is open? 2. O/D lines. I know they lost some good ones on both lines, but replacements? Breaking in a new QB won't be easy if lineman aren't up to the challenge. Will need to replace some size and mobility on both sides. 3. Leadership. Losing D Boyd will be the biggest obstacle to me. Emotional leader on defense. He and T Olivaris will be hard to replace on that line. On a side note. Will Rashard Ward play RB this year?
  11. True in some instances. This will be a competitive district, with no gimme games any week. I say this district is still Gilmer's to lose. Obviously injuries are part of the game, but I think Gilmer is deep enough, and play so many kids in their rotation, that an injury or two won't be that big of deal. I really think everyone is solid, going to be fun
  12. They do have a solid group returning. Good line as always, and some good skill players. I just don't think they will get past Atlanta (could be wrong), just never know. Hoping this district stays healthy, will be some real good games each week!
  13. Folks are showing y'all love. Everyone has you guys finishing 3rd or 4th. I'm thinking 3rd.
  14. With that schedule, I say 5-5 or 6-4
  15. Bellville will be good, but won't beat WOS, and I'm really shocked they have WOS below them in Reg 3. Celina will be better than last year with Pennington back, so I think they should be the early favorite in Reg 2. Gilmer has quite a lot returning, but with their QB question, I'd put Celina ahead of them at least for now. I'm thinking the Rice kid will get the nod? I personally thought he should have been the QB last year, it's tough to just keep giving the job to a Sr.
  16. Does anyone in the know, know if Gilmer will promote within, or go outside to find a replacement Passing/Receivers Coach?
  17. Yeah, I think Bob is thinking about Whitehouse in the championship game
  18. Agree. Those tournaments are good ways to keep your players active and in basketball shape both physically and mentally, IF ran correctly. It appears this one is not. Shame on the ETSO "officials" for not stepping in and doing the right thing.
  19. Did you see how many points we gave up last year??? Lol, in all honesty, he's been there quite some time and is ready to retire. I believe his contract wasn't renewed for next year. Like I said above, none of the coaches that are leaving or let go did anything wrong, just moving forward.
  20. Only two football coaches were removed, the DC, and whatever the girls basketball coach coached. The rest were both tennis and both middle school basketball coaches. If anyone else leaves, it would be because they wanted to.
