GTAlumnus Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 I hate this! Realistically there would have been less than the first quarter of competitive football, then running the clock. Not sure if that would have been better for Gunter than just having a bye and watching our next opponent. So we hate it and our future opponent is getting screwed also. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lambo Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 Why are they forfeiting? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trueblue82 Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 I wonder if this is due to roster issues or what? I mean, I understand that they probably figure they’re gonna get blown out, but wouldn’t you want to give your kids the experience of playoff football? I certainly hope this isn’t the beginning of the high school equivalent of players opting out of college bowl games when they don’t get included in the playoff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Everide2016 Posted November 6, 2022 Share Posted November 6, 2022 Yep, hopefully it's something other than just not wanting to play, otherwise they may want to take the "Leadership" out of their school name. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard that they had a lot of kids out for grades. Maybe that’s it? But the predistrict game probably helped make the decision. It’s still sad.

They already left out leaders in the classroom, so won't have to remove that if that was the issue. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes you would think the 5th place team would step in but they probably already turned in their pads and picked up their tennis shoes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOB Posted November 7, 2022 Share Posted November 7, 2022 (edited) That would be their second forfeit in the last three weeks ... not much in the leadership name ... Noticed there was a second forfeit - Wall vs Tornillo. Tornillo finished 4th in a 4-team district with a 0-9 record. Pretty sure I know what that was about. Not to mention the 385 miles between the two towns. Edited November 7, 2022 by DOB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We played Dimmit the last game of the season. They were 0-9, and decimated by injury. They had 16 kids suited up. They drove 160 miles, and played a game in the rain/snow, knowing they had no shot. They still showed up, still played their best. That is leadership by a coach, and that is a life lesson from football. I gained a ton of respect for their coach and players that game! 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
