  1. I have seen both these teams this season. It appears to me that Kaufman has progressed as the season has gone along. They also possess a powerful run game with maulers up front. I think their ability to run the ball and control the clock is the difference in this game. I'm taking the Lions in a close one.
  2. Mav... Lindale lost 28 Seniors from last season
  3. Heard he tested positive for visiting with "Mary Jane"
  4. My grandfather always said "If you're not part of the solution, you're part of the problem" My intentions w/ my recent posts was to poll the community and see what they thought about the state of their sports teams. Like I said, I was there during a rough time, but we loved our football, and representing our community meant the world to me, and my fellow brothers who played football.
  5. Webber was a Quitman guy too... Who was head coach while Johnson was there? Todd Shackelford was my DL coach as well as the head baseball coach. Not a better person in the business. He's always been a standup guy, and did things the right way. I always loved playing for him.
  6. I agree with the Porter years...there was a good run of athletes who came through the school. Success that had NOT been seen since the 80's (My Childhood) Even the Coach Shack years were good. Callahan seems to be having mild success at A-G. So what is the reason behind the 0-25 perfomance? I want to also make sure you all understand I AM NOT blaming the current coach WHATSOEVER. I asking what the community feels. Mineola is currently having unparalleled success at a rate never seen in that community. I'm happy for them, and just wonder what Quitman thinks of their neighbor's success to the south.
  7. elaborate...Are sports no longer a priority in the education of our youth? I have a niece who still attends school there, and she misses the former principal who is now the Sup in Winona. He apparently had a lot of school spirit.
  8. This used to be a serious rivalry in Wood County. As a former bulldog it makes me sad to see the state of Quitman athletics in general. What has happened to the community? Have people left the town? The enrollment numbers still appear to be average to what it was when I attended from '92-'96 I'm not talking down about Quitman, this is a genuine question I have about the state of QISD. Please don't be offended by my statements. AGAIN...not my intentions
  9. This is true...the job is posted on THSCA website.
  10. No problem...I follow him on twitter. He's a great coach. I can't imagine him anywhere else. I was trying to get back to East Texas years ago, and he didn't have a spot on his staff, but called several coaches in area trying to help in anyway possible. Very good character man. Gilmer is lucky to have him, and that he's stayed when other schools have come calling.
  11. His twitter acct... https://twitter.com/CoachTraylor
  12. Not true at all... Check out Jeff Traylor's Twitter feed. He's always posting about girls SB, BB and Track at state in Austin, etc... Of course football is/may be most important b/c their job is tied to it, but a broad statement of not caring about other sports is way off. Someone may have an ax to grind!
  13. darktower... dm me, you can't leave me hanging like that. I know one candidate who is OUT!
  14. Have they even listed the finalists for this job?
  15. when will they announce this one?
  16. Can you give us some info on Willie?
  17. I agree completely...The facilities in general are not very good. I know that bonds have failed in the past for numerous reasons. Wishing the Supt. Rhonda Turner the best of luck, & hope they find someone to light a spark, & turn that place around!!!
  18. So does Emory Rains...it's worked out great for them too!
  19. something rarely seen these days! Everyone is a coach now a days...since everyone has coached little league; we're ALL experts!
  20. I'm interested to seeing who applies for this job. Not a strong history of winning, but every so often, they have a few great classes come in & have a good run. Those runs are FAR a FEW between! We shall see... The facilities are awful, & if its true about the low number of coaches...I don't know anyone who'd want to suffer through that!
  21. No problem... The classification I can't wait to see is the new 5A...aka old 4A I'm wondering what the lower number will be. There are several really good 3A teams that could end up in 4A...I mean 5A. Ugh!
  22. http://theoldcoach.rivals.com/content.asp?SID=984&CID=1567932 Cuero 599 Yoakum 469 Gonzales ? not posted
  23. No question here. It's the fightin Texas Aggie Band. I'm class of '02, but wasn't BQ. My girlfriend, now wife, only went to the games to watch the band.
  24. Their mascot is the Pirates, and they are in a weak 3A district. All kidding aside, rumor is a new Sup wants a change. I read this on theoldcoach.com
