LoboFan07 Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 Why on earth is this on a Thursday? Goodness. Was going to say Tigers start slow again before pulling away, but man alive...5.5 hours is insane on a Thursday. Tigers roll. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
upullinmychain Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 Sometimes a young club is too dumb to know they are supposed to roll over and get beat,they actually think they are supposed to win the game...Thigh better fight like they are the third monkey at Noah's arc and brother it's raining outside ..good luck to Texas high 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ace Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 Will be interested to see Fulshear. This will be their first playoff game ever. Coach Codutti is an interesting guy who played a little pro ball. Refers to his offense as the "Wide Shoot". Wide zone run game. Passing game based on Run and Shoot concepts. He says he puts his best athletes on the OL and they run the program. OL picks out equipment first. OL eats first. OL runs the team. They learn to block their wide zone against any imaginable defensive front. Texas High's strength is a disruptive DL that has overwhelmed some offenses. Should be a fun matchup to watch. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will be interesting to find out how the date was decided upon. Essentially wiping out two school days for Fulshear. My opinion this is where a Superintendent says “No”. I know coaches hate getting off their schedule until later in the playoffs. Suspect Fulshear won the toss and felt it was to their advantage to reduce the amount of time the Tigers had to prepare as they played last Thursday. The games we play.

That's my suspicion as well. Coaches of the favored team often look ahead to the next round, and try to preserve a possible advantage in the second round by getting an extra day preparation and the opportunity to scout the next round's opponent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EazyMoney Posted November 8, 2021 Share Posted November 8, 2021 I think it’s crazy that a game with that much travel is allowed to be played on a Thursday night. How is Texarkana in Region 3 anyway? Fulshear is a decent team. They will want to run the ball. QB is athletic. If you let them hang around, they could steal one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No doubt. thinkin t high players and coaches will be aware of what will happen if they come out slow. went to playoffs as a 4th seed a couple years ago and happen to win the game so it’s possible .

THSfanatic Posted November 9, 2021 Share Posted November 9, 2021 I have no idea what to expect. If they can hop on a bus and ride 5.5 hours and beat us on our homefield we won't be going anywhere anyway. I don't expect that to happen but nothing is assured in high school football 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spothhb2 Posted November 10, 2021 Share Posted November 10, 2021 On the Thursday game topic. I was surprised to see the number of games statewide that are being played on Thursday. I do know that grades take effect on Friday 11/12 or at least for T-High. I wonder if that played a role... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coach Codutti is a good dude. When I was still a sportswriter in the Springfield, MO area, I covered his teams for a couple years, and we talked often. He always got a lot out of his teams that had next to no talent, and the kids loved him. Offensively, he's pretty brilliant. Interesting, fresh takes and schemes. And he's a big "culture" guy. Servant-leader type of a person, and everywhere he's been so far, the kids buy in. He's a big OL guy because he played OL in the arena league for a bit. You wouldn't know it by looking at him now, but he was a hefty young man for a bit (don't mean that in a derogatory sense). I'll be pulling for his Chargers in this matchup. Don't know if they'll have enough in the tank, but I'd like to see him get a playoff win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lots of glowing praise for Coach Codutti. Great to see another of example of a really good coach, who is a really good man, doing great things for kids and teaching life lessons along the way.
