  1. Always fun to see ya early...we will see if they are in shape & give 'em workout...practice on Henderson & Kilgore 1st
  2. New blood this year...we travel to 'em Week Five...everybody should be ready by then
  3. History says no..no..no Same 4 years for Bux...53-6...against the Wabbits...4-0 (180-98) Before you get too carried away, might want to have a little more woulda, coulda, shoulda.
  4. Some of you might remember him... Kris Boyd is looking to make a big impact heading into his senior season at the University of Texas. The Gilmer native is garnering plenty of preseason attention to go with that. Boyd, a senior defensive back for the Longhorns, was named to the 2018 watch list for the Jim Thorpe Award, the Oklahoma Sports Hall of Fame announced on Monday. The award is presented to college football’s top defensive back. Boyd, who was named to the preseason All-Big 12 team this past week, played in all 13 games for the Longhorns, with 12 starts, in 2017. Boyd finished with 57 tackles, fifth-best on the team, with two interceptions and 15 passes broken up, the most for a Longhorn since 2011. During his career, Boyd has 20 starts in 37 games played with 121 total tackles (89 solo), three interceptions, 22 PBUs, three forced fumbles and two fumble recoveries. The Paycom Jim Thorpe Award, established in 1986, is based on performance on the field, athletic ability and character. The winner will be selected from three finals on Dec. 6.

As a footnote: Kris' Baby Brother Demarco is a Soph. @ UT this year...I know some people from the area may remember him to...especially if you are a G'water fan
  5. Foot Note: Orange & White game this year...he had a tremendous number of "mentions" Looks like he is ready to play ball. And Kris is really special this year.
  6. He's a power lifter & in great shape...other side is Blake Oliveras...6'0" bumps 300 power lifter...he is playing summer soccer The "O" Line is typical Gilmer...small, tough & quick...Blake is Tristan Olivares' baby brother...we rotate everyone...fresh legs & depth
  7. This may be the best offense in many years. Line is big & brutal, protecting a QB that has a bullet arm & a very accurate long ball. There will be some youngsters with a lot of play time in past years. JV is now Varsity & a heck of a freshman group. This will be a fun year.
  8. Gladewater is gonna be in the mix in 3A D1...may be the most competitive Division in the State this year...bEastTexas is gonna be rough & tumble
