No list is credible without one that is in the Hall Of Fame. Y.A. Tittle of Marshall. If he had played today his stats would have been off the chart.

The first $80 to remind you will not hurt as bad as the next 23 @ $15 .

It will take Don Henley's pockets to get that done.

Coach Art Briles has resigned at Mt. Vernon
BunzT replied to sportsfan4life's topic in High School Sports
AB did not lie to anyone. Served two years of football and that is all anyone including Ray Charles, Jose Feliciano, and Stevie Wonder could see coming. Now lets talk about what MV got. They got more exposure than any program of that size could dream of, established the premise that if you can coach these kids they will play their *** off for you, exposed what a good place to live it truly is, and so much more. Looks likes both sides won and I bet they get a good hire from all AB brought to them. -

How to watch the State Championship Game
BunzT replied to headhunter02's topic in High School Sports
Requires pretty stout internet also. -
Canadian reminded me of the two great Vernon teams DF played in 84/85. Big but athletic. No big slow overweight kids occupying space. Up until the 4th quarter I picked them in the final . Franklins last drive put me to not wanting to bet my own money either way. Should be a good one. A deep failed scoring drive may decide it.

Bottom Line.....................PP could not convert 1 yard to end game ,could not hold a 2/3 score lead and could not cover # 5 & 3. Going forward DF and PP are going to have to develop a new style of play to compete with EF and Waskom the next few years . One is going to need better coaching.

What are the status of tickets on the EF side. Look for PP's 600 to sell well before game time.

Watched DF/Hooks last week. Hooks has kids in key positions that can play. Their QB takes a hit that should have sent him home but he returns to win game. Hooks has the type kids that if you let them hang around they will kick your *** much like Pewitt. Wish them the best.

It will be ironic that in 1968 DF had one loss on their way to the state title , PP and PP will have one loss in 2019 for a state title, DF. But then again Ray Wylie Hubbard once said " The trouble with irony is most people just don't get it. 70 DHS grad and now living in Naples...…………….Go Bulls.

Blue Ridge / DF trivia. In the 60's when DF was a one horse grocery store town Gerald Jones built the shopping center. Along comes Cordell Smoot from Blue Ridge and puts in a nice grocery store , Smoots. Changed things for years until a fire ended his run. Next door to another legendary business…...Wackers. Over 50 years later we remain a one horse grocery store town with an out of town corporation enjoying the benefits.

Greatest H.S. Football Player in East Texas History Poll...
BunzT replied to Smoaky's topic in High School Sports
The old school sports fans remember Van Thomas of the LNJ. The sports section was larger than most papers today. If you won a marble shooting contest Van would come take a picture of you and put it in the paper. It is kinda like Jerry Rice saying Jim Brown was the greatest football player ever. It is too subjective. Too much attention to offensive players and you leave a guy like Reggie White out. Hell it is like asking DF fans to pick the greatest DF FB player. It would create a hell storm. Too many at too many positions to choose from. Some were not around in the 60's and 70's .These debates never have a winner. -
Greatest H.S. Football Player in East Texas History Poll...
BunzT replied to Smoaky's topic in High School Sports
Well if you are going to cut at All State , the next cut should be Parade All American. The most elite list in the country. How many ever from ET. Two I remember...Bobby Taylor Longview and Steve Stutsman DF. Who Else ? How can you even have this discussion without mentioning Bobby Taylor. At any level. -

BunzT replied to Smoaky's topic in High School Sports
The question is …….HS player. Not College and not Pro. Those stats should not be considered. Was Earl Campbells HS career better than David Overstreet's. It reall becomes very subjective.
