So what really happened with this football game with O'Donnell suspending 9 or 10 players? I just got wind of it from a friend back in Lubbock. And what is O'Donnell doing playing 6 man? I thought O'Donnell had over 150 to 170 enrollment in High school.. I remember when my aunt who now lives in Lamesa graduated in 1970, classes ranged from 35 to 45 per class 9 through 12 in the mid to late 70's, with jr high classes close around 40 per class. And in some jr high classes they were averaging about 45 to 50 in the mid 70's then in the 80's classes stayed steady around 30 to 35 per graduation class... I know for a fact from visiting with friends throughout the years that even in the 90's they had some great 11 man football years making the playoffs often and going deep. Even in 2000, 2001, 2002 and mid 2000's they were good not only in football but basketball from what my cousin told me. I recall someone saying there was a principal name Mr Reed, not there no more, it was during that time they had some winning seasons. Isn't there a Black player name "Hunter" that plays there and was he one of the players suspended?
I remember being in Lubbock at one time, I read the newspaper and it just so happenned it was during the basketball playoffs in 1989 or 1990, it could of even been 1991 or 1988, so I went to the Texan Dome, South Plains Jr College in Levelland, and they had a heck of a basketball team had they beaten Lorenzo they would of gone to state, that's when I heard classes were like 30 to 35 per graduation class.
