regaleagle Posted December 15, 2023 Share Posted December 15, 2023 I missed on the Gordon/Westbrook pick so far......and IF I had seen Gordon play, I would have definitely taken them. They were world-beaters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

regaleagle Posted December 15, 2023 Share Posted December 15, 2023 Gunter has a nucleus and a program in the lower grades like Carthage and Argyle has....and Aledo and many other winning programs......Tidehaven doesn't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

collincountyfootball1 Posted December 15, 2023 Share Posted December 15, 2023 Tidehaven’s front 7 was really really good tonight for about 3 quarters and then the stalled offensive drives started to catch up to them and eventually wore down. I’m not breaking any news by saying this, but Gunter is here to stay. 4 titles in the last 8 seasons, they’ve already benefited from move ins to the program but with the success and proximity to the booming suburban communities like Frisco, McKinney, Prosper, Melissa etc. you can expect to see a few more families make that decision to get their son into a smaller school with great coaches and community support. FWIW, the infamous Baby Gronk is at Gunter and he’s actually a man amongst boys right now lol so definitely goood talent in the stable for the Tigers.

hwy35tigers Posted December 15, 2023 Share Posted December 15, 2023 Enjoyed the game, my team didnt win but that life. I still think Daingerfield is more athletic, but not as well-coached as Gunter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diehard Posted December 15, 2023 Share Posted December 15, 2023 Stretch zone to the left was TH best and only run play I suppose…. Blows my mind they couldn’t get the ball in 5 hands no other way…. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hwy35tigers Posted December 15, 2023 Share Posted December 15, 2023 If Gunter controls pace of growth in the school they will navigate the eventual progression up state classification tree smoothly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pax Posted December 15, 2023 Share Posted December 15, 2023 (edited) #5 was killing us. I think we did a great job of shutting him down in the second half, and that was the biggest difference. By my rough count, I believe he had 12 carries for 150 rushing yards in the first half (2 of those carries went for 43 and 61 yards) - so 104 on 2 carries; 46 yards on the other 10 in the first half, and 10 total rushes for 16 total rushing yards in the second half.

The UIL official stats had 10 for 19 in the second half. Outside of those two long runs, his longest was a pair of eights.

He had gains of 19 yards and losses of 3 for a NET of 16. Either way, not very many yards, but you're only referencing the positive yardage. Not sure why the UIL separates out positive yardage from negative - it seems cumbersome, but that's why we are 3 yards off in the second half.

No I counted one of those as a two-yard gain when it was a negative-two. I hate how they do those boxes as well and put the yardage before loss first.

Yeah, either way he was pretty much shut down in the second half - and really outside those two long runs, we was held in check. He had a burst, and I think he could have broke one of those long ones at any time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blesseddaily Posted December 15, 2023 Share Posted December 15, 2023 Looking at the map, I wonder how long before Gunter blows up like the towns near by...looks like it is right in the target area for people moving out of the Frisco/Prosper area. People looking for a smaller school district that excels in academics and don't mind moving will be moving in large numbers to Celina and Gunter.

Clearly that area has alot of affluent people that would have the resources to make that move if they so chose. I think it would be a no brainer if i were in that part of the world. Excellent school and seemingly thriving it every facet of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Excellent school and seemingly thriving it every facet of it. Unless they have control of most of the real estate in the district...there is a small district that is similar to that near Waco that is a great school district but has control of most of the land in the district and keeps developers from building any subdivisions. They've managed to keep the district at the 2A D-1 level while all the schools around them have grown extremely fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chevyman Posted December 15, 2023 Share Posted December 15, 2023 No doubt i think you have to put Coach Fieszel in the conversation with one of the best to ever do it at any classification. 210-29 i think? 4 rings. Pretty special program Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't ask them because then you'll get the 6hr long speech about how not everyone moves to Gunter has kids that are in high school lol 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
