supermaroon Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 Till proven otherwise its Waskom and everyone else. Will not bet against that team they were picked third in their district last year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arpcoaches Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 Arp is in need of a Sept.16 game date,thats the 4th playing date Coach Chris Stewart Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ringside Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 I anticipate Waskom being picked third again this year. With what Arp showed at the end of the year they will likely be first, then WR. Waskom's rebuild year is this year, in my mind. They will still be very competitive though, I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supermaroon Posted February 1, 2016 Share Posted February 1, 2016 You might be correct but that's what they said about waskom last year and we all seen how that turned out. Went and watched Arp vs Lone Oak last year in Van and for 2 1/2 quarters was not impressed until they stopped Lone Oak on the 1 yard line and broke their will to play One of those games that the final score did not represent the game. But from the sounds of things they did better the next week against Waskom so could be a dog fight this year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waskom's rebuild year is this year, in my mind. They will still be very competitive though, I think. Waskom will be alright on the line but will have to break in a new QB IE Hughes or Carter and a complete set of running backs and receivers. We still have some speedy running backs that seen a little action but I am thinking the defense will be hard to replace what we lost. Losing Amie, Reason, & Keilion on defense will be hard to replace. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TD89 Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 Til Waskom gets knocked off the top I'm put them 1st in this district they've earned that and shouldn't be picked below that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteelJacket Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 Should be a competitive district, EF lost a lot of starters but the jv was pretty good, not sure what to expect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DLineEATS Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 1. Waskom- RE-LOADED. Scary good. had 5 kids on the jv that are TALENTED, but were ineligible for this last season. 2. Arp- Great skill kids, but lacking offensive lineman 3. EF- lost a lot, but always seem to find new ones. 4a. West Rusk- lost everything. O line, skill, and not much on the jv or middle school 4b. Beckville is the wildcard. Graduated A LOT 4c. Troup- was young this past year and possibly be fighting for a playoff spot 4d. Harleton- know nothing about them other than lake o' the pines is a dang good fishing lake 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wild74 Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 my bad. There is a couple of young men to keep your eye on in the future Pacheco and Reeves, they will be very good on varsity next year and played during the playoff run some. Everyone for the most part will be youthful, I think Arp is the team to beat in our new district as they have a lot of returning talent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DLineEATS Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 I agree on Arp. Their skill kids are Electric, but they just don't have any lineman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WestRusk2009 Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 Just an FYI... West Rusk returns a lot of skill. We were 2 deep at every position this season. Our JV and MS focuses more on learning fundamentals over winning games so the scores do not reflect talent. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supermaroon Posted February 2, 2016 Share Posted February 2, 2016 Waskom can play coy all they want but still not sleeping on them think they will win this district might not be able to take state but i believe the district is theirs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waskom lost all of their skilled position players for the most part and only returns the OL in tack minus the center. We do have some second line players but they saw limited action so it will be a wait and see how they do when the game is on the line. for the most part they came in under the game is are ready won situations last year.

That may be very true but just not impressed with Arp in any way and everyone is trying to just give them the district. They are very talented team but so undisciplined committing a ton of penalties that kill their drives till they get all that cleaned I can't pick them in a district with the defending state champs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mavfanpanamacity Posted February 3, 2016 Share Posted February 3, 2016 Just one small correction Waskom only had two that was ruled ineligible the other 3 played varsity as the UIL ruled them eligible I will correct one thing also, the LB that played JV this fall is still not eligible. Coach Keeling postponed the district hearing and finally never rescheduled it on his eligibility last fall. The district can make him sit 2 years if it is deemed he moved for athletic purposes. That hearing will still have to be held for him to be eligible for varsity competition this fall as the PAP form has never been approved by the district. UL has never ruled on him. Not trying to stir anything up, but those are the facts as the situation sits today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
