Eden will host a HS meet on April 2nd

Eden is looking for Boys games on 1/6 and 1/30 to fill our district bye dates. We could just play varsity or play varsity & JV. If you have an opening please contact Coach Jeff Shelton 325-260-2580

spread sweep w/a lead cutblock was a great neutralizer to a defense. The crackback was also effective - both kept the defense honest. a cut block and release is effective if timed correctly

Not all "45s" are the same...

Could be cost? When I was at Spur we played one year at Ft. Elliott - can't speak for them, but they tend to fluctuate in numbers if I remember correctly. Tough to be competitive when you can't consistently field a team. Just speculation on my part though. I don't think a school district would...

making the open field cut block illegal has crippled the true spread

Much like socialism or communism is only effective in small groups, I think that only works for TAIAO due to the small numbers in their league. UIL would be a nightmare on sheer numbers alone - and a ranking system to determine playoff qualification/seeding is a joke in a state with the...

reduce the number of districts to 8 instead of 16, composed of 8-9 teams & take top 4 to playoffs in each district. that would alleviate scheduling issues & would increase competitiveness. but I'm also in favor of moving the 1A number down to 1-74, 2A from 75-134 for all sports but football, &...

We've got the Turf Tank 2 - I think it was $7500 for the first year, and they come out & set everything up & teach you how to use it. Then $7k a year after w/paint. If you can use a tablet, the tech is user friendly

we got Turf Tank this year - worth every penny. Comes with 20 2.5 gal jugs of white paint per year. When I paint full field with logo in the middle, numbers, sideline hashes, endzone words, coaches boxes etc, it's 4 jugs. Only do that for Homecoming & district games though. I only paint...

Tanner Woods is a heckuva underrated Spreadback when talking about all-time greats

In Colorado, the cutoffs at one time were: 0-75 - 6man 76-125 - 8man 126+ - 11man I think the following would work: 0-70 - 6man 71-139 - 8man 140+ - 11man schools could always "play up" if they chose to do so. 11man schools would just have to narrow the width of their fields to 40yds to...

filled
