    Aquilla?

    70s = 2 wins 80s = 3 90s = 1 00s = 2 10s = 6 20s = 1 (counting this year’s win) 15 wins in 6 decades = 2.5 wins a decade vs Abbott

    Aquilla?

    The reason no one is talking about Aquilla is because even the people from Aquilla know they’re not winning state. No hope = No hype. Hard to get excited about ending your season with a 45 point loss and a 3rd place medal, even if it is a good run. But at least they’re going to beat Abbott this...

    Future Changes (Suggestions Welcome) 2024-25 Edition

    I may be the only one, but this is what I typically see when I try to read the message boards.

    Gordon vs Abbott Thoughts

    As an interesting note, Abbott is the only team to defeat Gordon’s fantastic junior class since they’ve been in high school. Even if it did occur during their freshman year.

    Why The Silence?

    I see these two pop-ups every time I visit this site, the Hulu ad takes up the bottom part of the page and the protein ad is always on the right. The worst part is once you close them out and click on a message board topic, they both pop back up again.

    Why The Silence?

    I think the exorbitant number of pop-ups has likely had an effect on message board participation as well. If you want to read anything on this site you have to battle 5 pop-ups first. I don't begrudge anyone for trying to make a profit, but the user experience is greatly affected.

    Why The Silence?

    The fact that Gordon is going to 45 every opponent for the next 2 years has certainly removed the excitement from Div 1. It's hard to watch a movie when you already know the ending, so we won't have much intrigue until the 2026 season. I've never followed Div 2 very closely, but Rigdon kept me...

    Rumor Mill

    Most teams in that situation wait a few years too many and only embrace sixman when the well has all but run dry. Throckmorton and Calvert stand out as exceptions who got the timing right.

    Coaching Carousel 2024

    Under the Texas Education Code, contract employees are required to resign no later than 45 days before the first day of instruction for the school year. Resigning outside this timeframe can lead to a determination that you have “abandoned your contract” and a one-year suspension of your teaching...

    Coaching Carousel 2024

    I think the posted transcript from the Baird school board meeting is sufficient proof that Nathan Hayes will be their next athletic director. Consequently, COACH Jamie Rigdon is likely on the move.

    Rigdon v ethridge

    I think to be considered for the GOAT conversation you need 3 state championships. I believe that limits the candidates to Tyler Ethridge, Vicente Ramirez, Mitchell Parsely, and (after next week) Grayson Rigdon. They’re all great offensive players, but I give Ethridge the nod due to his superb...

    Abbott vs Aquilla

    Aquilla is a really solid team, but Westbrook and Knox City would 45 them. Hopefully Abbott will do the same. The East needs a Beast.

    D1 Region 3 & 4

    The Aquilla faithful would like you to believe they’re a contender is R3, but I remain dubious of the river rats.

    Coaching Carousel 2022-2023

    Just got my copy of Dave Campbell’s and Richland Springs is still listed as “open”. Any word on who will be the head coach?

    Top teams D1 and D2 2023

    When Abbott defeated Gordon in the semis last year they did it without their undisputed best player, sophomore RB Riley Sustala. Perhaps Gordon had some significant injuries that I’m unaware of, but it’s hard for me to pick the longhorns in a rematch. I’m also surprised that everyone seems to...
