  1. Marshall JV beat Pine Tree 48-12. They are 4-1 on the season
  2. Marshall JV up on Pine Tree 30-0 after 1 quarter. Looks like they are about to improve to 4-1 on the season
  3. WEEK 5 Texas High Vs. Hallsville Marshall Vs. Pine Tree Nacogdoches Vs. Whitehouse Mount Pleasant- BYE Texas High Vs. Hallsville- Texas High was able to beat Tyler Legacy with a back up quarterback. The offense has been humming all season. It will be interesting to see if Potter is back on the field this week. The Tiger defense has been lights out the last two weeks after struggling a bit in the first two games. I've heard through the grapevine that Hallsville's RB-1 is out for the season with a torn ACL. Not good news for the Bobcat's. Hallsville's defense continues to struggle. I'll take Texas High in a comfortable win. Marshall Vs. Pine Tree- The Mavs' record isn't pretty at (1-3), but their three losses have been to three teams that are a combined (11-1). They almost pulled off the win Vs Tyler, losing in 5-OT. Carthage won the game last week comfortably...but Marshall had some success moving the ball against the Bulldogs between the 20's. Had a couple of deep drives that came away empty. Marshall defense has been strong against the run most of the season....spotty Vs. pass. Pine Tree has proven to have a stingy defense, but their offense has been spotty. Marshall has never lost at PT stadium since it opened in 2013... they are (7-0). Marshall wins a TOUGH ROAD GAME to open district. Nacogdoches Vs Whitehouse- Last year's most shocking game was Nac's win over WH when the Dragons finished (1-9) while the Wildcats were fighting for a district title. So who knows what to expect this season??? Nac is improved..... with losses to Lufkin and Chapel Hill, who are (7-1) combined. Whitehouse is putting up gaudy offensive numbers....but their wins are against teams that are a combined (3-9). The lone team Whitehouse has played with a winning record, beat them 55-33. This is a toss up. Wouldn't be shocked to see either team win. But I think Nac's running game will sideline the WH offense.... and the Nac defense will get just enough stops to get the win in a close one. Mount Pleasant- The Tigers will beat bye by 10 points. Would have been 17, but a penatly flag negated a TD.

  5. SOOOOO..... With all the drama of Monday....I was concerned about how this may affect the team. You never know what things can tip the canoe over. But some things that are to be noted..... this was a beef between a parent and a coach. This wasn't a team issue. Or a staff issue. There wasn't a angry mob with pitchforks and "for sale" signs in hand... It was a person not happy about playing time. When they didn't get the response they desired....they played the lowest denominator card it's ridiculous against a man that's track record speaks for itself. In anger....things were said and done in haste...... but in the long run...... cooler heads prevailed. And things were made right. I've been told the team has gone about business. Obviously they aren't oblivious to what happened. Based on what's being said (take it with a grain of salt).... most of the players feel like it had nothing to do with them. It was a beef expressed that not everyone agreed with. It was aired. All is out in the open now.... *yawn* let's go beat Pine Tree. Players aren't interested in what PO'd fans/family think. They have a job and a goal to do. Sometimes a squeaky wheel is the loudest...but it's doesn't mean all the wheels are squaking. Apparently practices have been business as usual the last 2 days. I'm hoping so. We experienced something similar to this in 2019 when Coach G benched a player for breaking team rules. It ticked some folks off......the reaction was much louder and included a lot more people than this incident. And it happened in week 2 of the season. It looked like our entire season was derailed when we were sitting at (0-3). Well...we finished (7-3) overall....(7-0) in district. PT has had their own distractions/drama the last 2 weeks with issues much bigger than pissy parents. Looking forward to the game Friday. Expecting to see some fire play from these guys.
  6. All the pieces are there. But sometimes kids do boneheaded things to distract….2019. Sometimes adults do boneheaded things to distract….2023. Sometimes you have coaches that are more about their own interest than the program’s (2017-2018). Sometimes people unwisely (imho) chase money (2016). Sometimes (imho) you just make a poor hire (2011-2012). Sometimes you just lose to better teams in the playoffs 2013, 2014, 2015, 2016, 2019, 2021, 2022…… But these distractions are maddening. Don’t see this garbage at Longview, Texas High, etc etc
  7. Alvarez is NOT leaving. Confirmed from multiple sources. And yes. This is (partially) about daddy ball. IMHO this is a smaller issue than what Griedl faced with the JJ debacle in 2019 when he benched the QB for breaking team rules. Some folks are mad about who is and isn’t playing in certain positions. I may even agree with them…. But how this was approached and handled was NOT the way. Playing the card they played is low. But not anything any coach hasn’t heard before. There’s a way and a time and a place. None of that happened the way it should. Time to shake this off and move forward with or without the support of a vocal minority.
  8. That has only been rumored. Until MISD makes an announcement, I’ll assume it’s nothing more than rumor.
  9. I’m disappointed that someone in the community would cause so much disruption… if true But I’m also disappointed in Alvarez if true. He’s a veteran coach. All coaches have to deal with meddling parents. He walked away too easy and too quick to back up all his talk about how he’s 100% invested here for the long term. People that are INVESTED are there for the good times and the hard times. They don’t pack up their toys and leave. But I’m withholding final thoughts until I know more. Too much speculation. Too many things aren’t adding up.
  10. One of the schools had several players involved in a shooting. Likely ended 2 players seasons to gun shot wounds. It’s been in the news. Just not with the school involved since it happened on a weekend off campus. Another has had some disciplinary issues. Coaches having to put the smack down. Makes me grateful to have not gone into education. I almost did.
  11. Both programs have had to deal with off the field shenanigans the last few days. Fourth program in the district to have ridiculousness pop it’s head up already. I guess this is becoming the new normal. Sad commentary.
