BringBacktheVEER Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 Had a friend of mine who was watching his son and said he had no idea West Rusk had receivers like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blesseddaily Posted July 16, 2010 Share Posted July 16, 2010 Just wanted to give a big thank you to all the coaches involved...they all did a great job coaching the kids and keeping them focused in the sweltering heat!! Big thanks also to Coach Traylor for bringing a few of the kids back down to earth with the story about Stump Godfrey and the reality of just how hard it is to receive a scholarship.

blesseddaily Posted July 18, 2010 Share Posted July 18, 2010 So many of the kids today believe that if they are good athletes the major colleges will be standing in line to offer them a scholarship when nothing could be farther from the truth...stump was one of the best athletes to come through Gilmer and meybe one of the best in East Tx. in a while. He won lots of games and a state championship but was offered ONE scholarship...one...just helped the kids realize that you have to work very, very hard AND have lots of talent to even get looked at...and then its not a given that you will get an offer.

budkilmer99 Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 Go Lions!! That town deserves a decent season or 2 for all the beatings it has taken over the years. I'd like to know what years all these beatings took place there backer?? You act like teague has taken on the chin for the whole history of the program. You had a similar comment when coach Finney got hired. What years did you play for crockett because I know one year Teague suited up like 16 against the Bulldogs. Other than a couple of horrible seasons in the early 90's late 80's which was the time they suited up 16 or whatever it was and the exception of last season, there has rarely been any beatings you speak of Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If my memory serves me, and that is suspect, he was offered K-State(early), Virginia, Tulsa, New Mexico. Chose the latter because of starting potential. But don't quote me on that. I would want to check with Monsieur Traylor to be sure. If he said it that way, I'm shocked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In many peoples minds....(general statement) Teague has and will continue to be a whipping post for Crockett and other teams that need someone to practice against. Now, I realize that Teague has had a bit of resurgence as of late, but some of us will continue to see Teague as the annoying little neighbor. BTW, I played for Crockett from 87-90.

BringBacktheVEER Posted July 19, 2010 Share Posted July 19, 2010 When Big Sandy went bad, they went bad. Should have won 2 State Championships. Instead, came away with a runner up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gotta love Hiflyincards to jump in and put his 2 cents in for his boy Finney....who knows you may be Finney. Who cares. I was not at Big Sandy when they went through those few years of success so you can take back your little shot at me....I think we went through this already with you a while back....Big Sandy KILLED Maud 2 years in a row and then Maud gets 2 wins in a row...
