Kilgore. They will beat Henderson as bad as they want to

Somebody is a little upset and obviously does not like the dawgs hahahaha kids transfer to powerhouse schools quite a bit (Aledo, Pleasant Grove, Gilmer, Etc. just to name a few). Only reason this is news is because he is a big time recruit. I remember a few years ago, Duncanville had 4 star linebacker (that is now at Alabama) transfer in his senior year and don’t remember a whole lot of noise. Maybe the kids and parents just want to win and be exposed to good coaches.

@Campbell46since you gave this a thumbs down, let’s hear your opinion

Any QBs that are any good? I expect the lobos to be loaded as usual

Have no clue who any of the board members are but very very surprised that any sitting board member would make a comment about this.

How many returning starters do the lobos have coming back?

Just like with any company or large corporation, leadership starts with the CEO and in a school system, that would be the Superintendent. Not even from Henderson but there is a lot of red flags that are facts that any given person could look up.

Plus the Henderson school district did not even get rated for academics correct?? When was the last time that happened?

Not sure about that. I think he’s been the “athletic coordinator” the last 3-4 years which sounds like basically the same role as AD now and I know all Henderson sports have not been great in awhile. Go check out Henderson basketball scores for this year

Agree 100%

Henderson is in panic mode. Superintendent, assistant superintendent, and it seems like most of the board members have absolutely no clue what in the hell they are doing as well as most of the other top admin. Big ship show in Henderson and the laughing stock of Texas High school football right now in my opinion. Have always thought Henderson had some of the best athletes in east Texas. Always used to give Gilmer good games

Didn’t both kids get all district and have been starters for two years? Oh and two state rings? Don’t know the kids or their families personally but I would think they are pretty happy with the way things turned out. Hell, makes them look pretty smart with how things are going in Henderson

East Texas coaches do not respect him

Agree 100%. Would love to know what the coaches around East Texas think of Castles. He applied for two jobs and did not even come close to getting them.

You know nothing. Your posts show that. Maybe you should apply for the job if you know everything

I agree 100%. Carthage hasn’t became this powerhouse from just having great athletes. Do they have talented athletes? Yes. Does Henderson have talented athletes? Yes. I would say athlete wise, it has been about the same over the years. Carthage has a program and can develop decent players into great ones. That is what some Henderson folks do not understand. Does Henderson even have a track program?

We will get a good glimpse at how bad Castles has run the Henderson program into the ground over the next few years. You can’t blame the new coach for this. He has inherited a mess. And I will say this again...Henderson usually has just as good as athletes as Carthage, if not better. Would love to see what Surratt could have done at Henderson the last 10 years. I back what the admin is doing 100%

The score will be just as bad as the China Spring game if Carthage wants to make it.

I would have to agree with this statement. Carthage could beat most 5A-2 schools and would not be surprised if they won state in that class either. They would easily win 4A-1 this year as well. Argyle is good, but Carthage is too good. There is no team in 4A that can match up to them.

Kip Lewis #5 — Jr linebacker for Carthage. This guy can flat out play.

No they didn’t. They were forcing Carthage to run the ball and I guess they thought they could stop it, but they couldn’t. Carthage ran the ball at will all night. If your going to have a certain game plan to think you can stop “the run”, you better stop it. You would think Jasper would have switched something up.

The score last night was not a good representation of how the game went. Carthage whipped jasper all over the field. Jasper played with 2 safeties almost 20 yards deep every play, which is saying that they don’t want to get 50 hung on them. Jasper could not stop the run. Don’t get me wrong, Carthage did not play their best football, but I don’t see anybody in 4A DII even coming close to beating them. Jasper in my opinion, is not much better than Center.

Palestine will take this one easily. Henderson is going way downhill. They have the athletes but not the coaching. It was pretty apparent in the Lindale loss.

Carthage by a lot. The only team that beats Carthage this year will be Carthage. That is the only way they get beat, is by beating themselves. And having Surratt at the helm, I do not see that happening with the discipline his teams have every year.
