New kid on the block(The Ville and Lamarque)

[Ville]

Looks like this subject is loosing steam. I wish some one from down La Marque way would chime in. I think the Ville will do very well this year, I can't wait till they play Alvarado, that will tell a lot on how good the Ville really is. The beast from the East is big time excited to face the best from the west. This year should be a dang good year for 3A football.
Go Dawgs

I think no team is district gets within 25 points.

He is strong as can be and his arms are like rocks. I think his throwing motion may have a little to do with how much muscle he has in his upper body.

This is my favorite 3a DL post of all time.

That's why I posted. I am hoping this thread lasts until Sville's season ends, be it an early exit or a SC.
It will be interesting to look back and see how early predictions compare to results.

By the time we play, we will pretty well know how good we are and which one of us will be the better of the 3A state champs in 2012

What's been known for a while is now out there.

The #3 DT in all of the land now plays for Carthage.

.....But did he transfer for athletic reasons? Did his family move into the Carthage school district from the Elysian Fields district? He is a great player, but will he replace that big 6'7" 324lb monster lineman they lost to graduation? Of course, I'm guessing at his size, but that's what size he looked......:D

He will more than likely be better than any Dlineman Carthage has ever had.

Move seems legit.

Will he play left tackle, or will they move him elsewhere?

[MGAR]

He's a defensive tackle.. At 6'3 309 I'm sure they will put him right in the middle.

[waterboy]

He's a defensive tackle.. At 6'3 309 I'm sure they will put him right in the middle.
So, my guess is he will replace Brantley (?) at left tackle. A tackle isn't exactly what I'd call putting him in the middle. To me the center and guards are the middle, although I'm sure he will be pulling and trapping at times. Looks like Carthage has recruited a heck of a player.

[Txbroadcaster]

really? recruited? after the crap Gilmer took I would think that fanbase would not use that word once

[orange machine]

I want to know what happened to the the neck rolls that Stephenville made so popular in the 90's? I rememebr watching S-ville and Sherman play in the playoffs back in the 90's and it seemed like every player for S-ville was wearing a neck roll except for the qb. Heck i think Art Briles was wearing a neck roll under his Polo shirt. Its prety funny when your punter comes out on the field and is 6'5 135lbs with arms and legs the size of a pencil, but he has his big neck roll on lol.

I wih I could find a picture of those teams.

I doubt he will play offense.

It's Gilmer, not Carthage that recruits offensive players.

We're allowed because of that......:D.... Carthage will get the same treatment we did, whether founded or unfounded. Sometimes there are legit reasons for move-ins. Did his family move out of the Elysian Fields school district?

You should be asking yourself if his family ever lived in the EF school district to begin with.

[orange machine]

Any of you S-ville folks have some videos you can post of the early 90's teams with Jason Bragg and Bill O'dell at runningback?

[waterboy]

I know the districts are next to each other, but I have no idea which district the family lived in before or now. It doesn't really matter, but Gilmer has been harassed over and over again about things such as this. Should Carthage get a pass.......?

Either way, it makes me no never mind......just saying..... Unfortunately, we will not get to play them for the next two years. I was starting to like this budding rivalry. Two of the best 3A programs in the state separated by about 40 or so miles can't find a way to play each other, knowing they won't meet in the playoffs is beyond my comprehension. This is one Buckeye fan that wishes the coaches would've worked something out. Oh well.....

Watch the 98' game between Brownwood and Ville. Its a classic for one and both teams were massive. Our MLB was 6'3" and weighed like 250. Went on to be a captain for the Ags.

Is it just me or do players seem alot smaller then they did back then? Those teams were really big they look like college teams out there. The La Marque team was was huge also.

I think 99% of that is pads have gotten smaller and pretty much Celina is the only team that still wears the big neck protectors to try and look bigger.

[orange machine]

Celina doesn't wear those big things anymore either for the most part. Some of the linebackers wear butterfly ristrictors with the jersey pulled over it. Come to think of it there was only one starter on both sides of the ball that had a butterfly restrictor so I guess Celina is the last team I guess to stop wearing them.

I like the old neck roll look I think it looks cool for linemen and lbs, but when your defensive backs are wearing them that's a little much.

[cowboyandchrist]

Just heard and confirmed, that one of the top DT in the state for 2013 is now a Carthage Bull Dawg, I love me some 3A football. The beast from the East just got better.

You know I'm torn. If Carthage and S-ville do happen to make it to the state championship game I don't know who I would root for. I get tired of listening about the east Tx speed yada yada and how great Carthage is, but they are 3a and deserve to brag and be proud. Then there is S-ville who thinks since they moved down they have pretty much got things wrapped up already and i would like for them not to move down and win it all.

In saying that I like both of these programs and have nothing but respect for both and wish both luck. So I guess really somebody needs to knock out both of y'all lol.

I would say the 2012 season in 3A football will garner more attention this upcoming fall than it has in many years....maybe EVER!! I'm guessing the media coverage will be on board for all the hoopla leading into week zero. This will be one hard-fought season for supremacy in all regions this year with so many very good teams spread across the state. No telling who might end up in the SC game, the way things are cooking and looking.

[jason]

locals are definitely excited about the potential the drop to 3a provides...
they are in a pretty good place right now with football (should be pretty good), baseball (should be pretty good), track (apparently they have some fast white kids) and girls basketball (they went 3rd rd and lose 1 senior who was a 12th man)...

[Ville-D]

Since he lives in Stephenville, I assumed Emerson was referring to people in Stephenville...not just posters on this board.

I talk to the coaches and a hand full of players regularly and believe me, none of them think they are going to be handed the SC trophy at the end of the year just because of who we are and where we have been. No players are going to take the summer off just because we dropped down to 3a.

Now the fans around here might be a little over zealous, but they are every year. 2 years ago the senior moms had some "save the date" t-shirts printed that the coaching staff was a little frustrated with. I don't ever remember seeing one of the football boys wearing one though. I believe each town that has a decent program has a ton of support from the local population, and some times they might go a little over board. :eek:

When it comes down to it, we fans can talk as much trash and believe all the hype we want but in the end as long as the players have a level head about things that's all that matters. I'm looking forward to this season and during playoff time I'm going to talk as much trash as humanly possible.

In 3A? I don't remember a 3A team from the hill country except Wimberley this past season, and Liberty Hill, who won 2 in-a-row in '06-'07, for a total of three who won titles. If you're talking about Lake Travis, yes, but that's in 4A. It'll be a little bit tougher getting number 6 in-a-row for LT in 5A, but they will definitely be a contender.

East Texas teams have won 6 out of the last 8 3A state titles, so it appears the state title will go through ET anyway you look at it. This is a different year, I know, but recent history proves it. The only year an East Texas team hasn't won at least one of the two titles since '03 is in 2007. That was during LH's run.

'03 Atlanta
'04 Gilmer
'05 Tatum
'06 Liberty-Eylau
'07 Gilmer lost to LH in the finals
'08 Carthage
'09 Gilmer and Carthage
'10 Henderson (who beat Chapel Hill) and Carthage
'11 Chapel Hill

East Texas has won exactly half of all 3A titles in the last 9 years.

The crazy part about this team was this was the year after the "great" Stephen Hodge graduated. Was suppose to be a down year, rebuilding year. I really don't think this team could of beat Wimberley for the simple reason that sophomores made up 60% of the starting line up.

The RB was the 2005 3A player of the year..

QB went on to have a 42-4 record has starting QB..

WR starts for the Oakland Raiders.. By far the best athlete Tatum has ever had.

Oline had good size. Averaging around 6'3 275..

What sets this team apart from others is the pure athletic ability. That's why I think they can beat the '11 Chapel Hill team. CH had a ton of athletes, this Tatum team could of matched up with them and then some.

I know football is a team sport but here are a few clips from the main threats on that team.

05 Wimberley team went 15-0, they were division 1 that year. Buse was very good for sure, although I'm not sure 05 was better than 11 at all. It has been a topic around here, but I know both teams very well and 04 and 06 teams were very good too. Wimberley would have gone 16- 0 this year, but Smithville game was cancelled because of the fires. Both teams very good, but I vote for the 11 team as the better all around team. 06 was damn close and some argument could be made that it was better than the other two. Buse played that year too as well as a great QB that didnt get his turn till his senior year.

D1 abundance doesn't necessarily translate into high school success. Wimberley has never been a source for D1 players. We've been under the radar for most of our existence as a high school. Oh, we've had a few D1 players scattered over the years but it's really nothing new to have others toot their horn about this aspect of the game when comparing us with them. I can respect the fact a team has been blessed with such talent. I guess we just get lucky on occasion. I'll take that...but...we would have given you everything Hutto did and then some. We would have opened up a can of whup..., well, you get the picture. Lol.. :wave:

Ok Hat, we don't need you string things up for us. We'll see you week 1. (Hopefully to a little better result than the 31-0 last year)

[Tejastrue]

I saw both the Texans and Tatum in 05 and that would have been a fun game..Texan D was so damn stout, but Tatum was that can score from anywhere at anytime anyway type of team...would have been a great game for sure


I agree TXB. It would have been a battle. Talking about offense, one could easily put our numbers against Tatum's (at least in scoring) for the same year. Just a note worth using for a comparison...the team Tatum beat for the SC gave up 49 to Liberty Hill in an early season loss.

Gainesville was a very good, undefeated team.

"Ok Hat, we don't need you string things up for us. We'll see you week 1. (Hopefully to a little better result than the 31-0 last year) "

Well,maybe a little stirring on my part but in good fun ! But I do look for you guys to take it all. I know that it takes a little luck as well as talent and a lot of these 3a schools will not just roll over and quit.
As far as week 1, you guys will be favorites I am sure as we have a rebuilding job on hand, I think the Bearcats will develop as the year goes along into a really good 4a team and with some of that luck should have a shot at #4. By the way I pull for you guys when you aren't playing the Bearcats. Have a little running back that scored over 30 TD's on the freshman team but he needs to grow a bit and look for him to really show up when he is a junior.

[hsbtex]

Got to catch up

Oh Lion 70...I am caught up. It's funny how you east texas boys always use numbers "skewed" towards the results you want to portray. I am still laughing...why are we using 03 as a year to start with??? I bet I know... How about let's use the last ten years...that would make sense wouldn't it?? (unless you are from east texas??) Out of a total of 20 possible state championships, east exas has won ten. Good, yes. Dominating (the sate championship runs through the beast of the east)...no...not really at all. The hill country has five of those....a MUCH smaller area than east texas.

And Waterboy, I agree...trying to get number 6 in a row will be tough. It's funny, though, since the move up we go to an "easier" district. We WILL NOT miss Cedar Park!

Let's be honest, east texas has been dominating in recent years and have had the best teams. Not trying to be a homer but being honest. Right now east texas has every right to think that they have the best football until we become MIA in BOTH state title games. Good luck to everyone this season but until proven other wise east texas is the reigning king of 3A.

You can not argue with horses end bay, he will ride the coat tails of Lake Travis, which is I believe 5A now, was 4A and has nothing to do with 3A, but will chime in on every reply anyone makes from East Texas. He needs to go to Smoaky, they will give him all he wants.

And Cowboy...yes, I support Lake Travis. I pay A LOT of school taxes here! And what would Smoaky give me all I want of?? I have posted over there, and they were all very nice, and agree that we have reigned in 4A the last five years, as the five straight titles would suggest. You think they would argue with that...that east texas plays better football than us???

Cowboy said I should go over to Smoaky, that I would get all I want. Which is what I responded to.

Still no La Marque fans? Surely somebody knows somebody from there. I saw one on another board but wasn't sure about recruiting them to come here. Should I?

I'd have to say that other than a couple of joking posts and one rabid fan, the Stephenville folks have not really said that we have it all wrapped up. Maybe I'm wrong...

If they can get those guys to play football, look out. The great coaches in the East will tell you, give me speed over size any day. Speed can change a game in one play.

Ive said it before, football speed and track speed are way different speeds. One has speed, brains, strength and toughness and the other has speed.

First place in a track meet doesn't necessarily translate to success on the football field.

05 Wimberley team went 15-0, they were division 1 that year. Buse was very good for sure, although I'm not sure 05 was better than 11 at all. It has been a topic around here, but I know both teams very well and 04 and 06 teams were very good too. Wimberley would have gone 16- 0 this year, but Smithville game was cancelled because of the fires. Both teams very good, but I vote for the 11 team as the better all around team. 06 was damn close and some argument could be made that it was better than the other two. Buse played that year too as well as a great QB that didnt get his turn till his senior year.

I see similarities between the 06 team verses Hondo and the 11 team verses Taylor. Both played at a SC level all season but with injuries and lack of focus, struggled in those two games. Unfortunately the 06 team could'nt pull off the win.

2006 had very very good players and coaches.

Yes 06 was very good. They beat both SC's that year. I think the 12 team is going to be similar in ways to the 06 team, ie. QB waiting his turn to start, some spot players on O and D from SC team getting their chance to shine and some very good returning starters off SC team that will only be better. The tough non district schedule is even similar. Should be fun and of course the big target on their back every week.

If Reed Jones plays like I think he can, 2012 can be better than 2006. Both sides of the ball should jell by district play.

Seems like the Texans/good teams always have that target.

greetings to all, been following the jumbo-tron here on 3A DOWN LOW and I must say I am intrigued by the amount of trash you fellows can talk. you're up there with the best of them. long and short of it I doubt if LM and the Ville will meet based on where they will fall in the playoffs as presumed by you guys. LM will be young, big and strong and well-coached. they pack a wallup up front and will take their lumps and bruises early. this will be a different beast loaded at running back and fronting a huge offensive line with a qb in the 6'-4" 200lbs rainge. I put him at about a 4.5 forty and he has an above average arm. can't wait till the state rankings come out and look forward to the season. eastland/stephenville do you really have a fro?

[CTS]

I agree coog87....they play a beast of a non-district schedule

7 starters coming back off the #1 ranked defense in 24-4A will help....and the offensive line is HUGE...but the young skill kids have to develop.... I do think the tempo of their offense will help them at 3A...they were wearing down teams like Manvel and Dawson with the oregon type pace...curious to see how it affects teams with the same enrollment as LM.

Ville - you must really miss me, because you keep bringing my name up. EVERYBODY on this board is up on all things Stephenville. Yall have made sure of that! I appreciate the enthusiam. Stephenville's declining enrollment and subsequent drop to 3a really is big news and I have enjoyed probably about half of the stuff yall have posted. I don't think Stephenville is going to have a down year. Yall seem to have a great football program and a group of hard-working, talented kids from what I have seen in the posted highlights and reports. It will be real interesting to see how things play out.

Lamarque posters have been around and provided some good insight on their team. I wish the other 3a newbies were as active on the DL, we have heard nary a word out of El Campo and Kilgore.

When I say everybody is up on all things Stephenville, that's really not true. Despite the 100's of Stephenville posts about how good they are going to be this year, I haven't seen anything (maybe I missed it), about the OL, DL, LB's, secondary, TE's, or even the RB's. Start by telling us how wonderful the OL/DL is going to be this year. Are they all being recruited by D1 schools?

Ya know, in 2006, there was a guy who felt since his beloved Lions from Waco moved down from 5A to 4A, they would dominate. After losing 34-14 in the D2 championship game, Waco has not been heard from since. I say this for 2 reasons:

1. We at La Marque won't be foolish to use such language.
2. But take us lightly.

We are La Marque Cougars - WHOOSH

You may never hear from Waco High again... Waco ISD is now just like Dallas ISD and Houston ISD. Anyone that has any talent transfers to the suburbs- mainly Midway ISD.

LaMarque fans were the biggest smack talkers out there in the 90's. Stephenville hushed them a few times though.

Whatever you say, Dirk Diggler.

Oh yeah, have you worn that Saturday Night Fever 8-track out yet?

My goodness how you have forgotten. Don't blame you for doing so. I watched all 3 SC's vs LaMarque and I'd never seen so much cockyness. Sville fans just kept shaking their cans to drown out all the hoopla and methodically took care of bidness.

For those that didn't know, of the 4 SC's Stephenville has played and won, they played LaMarque in 3 of them and won all 3 matchups.

That's because S'ville cheated and used steroids! I read it on the internet so it must be true! :evilgrin:

we didn't forget hollywood, would like another shot at them though. that was what alomot 20 or so years ago. different teams, different era's. Briles was one heck of a coach no matter what surrounded the games.

[Fastglen]

Hmmmmm let's see........LaMarque lost to the Ville in three State Championships yet won five from other schools. Which three championships did the Ville lose and what was the fifth one that they won????????? Just wondering about true dynastys that's all.

Never lost a SC that I know of. Lost 3 times to Aledo... Working toward #5. Too bad we likely wont get to play, but stranger things have happened.

[hollywood]

S'ville won 4 of 4 SC's played. 2012 should be a great season. This years team has the likings of the 2010 Brownwood team but with a few more weapons per say and a bigger/stronger OL/DL.

Right, and every player had to be at least 22 years old to make the team, and got a free car, and had access to the ISD's credit card, and all had perfect grades without going to class. Give me a break...


It is pretty SORRY that some LaMarque folks are claiming that drug-use was the reason Stephenville kicked their a$$es on the football field. smh Proof?

i saw Luker and Cardwell's new trucks(both still had Bruner dealer tags) while they were getting gas using the ISD credit card...overheard them discussing going to one of the O-linemans 23rd birthday party before "juicing" up @ the field house and Luker saying he was pissed that he got a "B" on his report card and that he was going to give the teacher, if he could remember her name, a piece of his mind for ruining his perfect GPA....there's your proof..i was there! LoL!!

I don't think a player can be over 19 and stll compete, I could be wrong.
It does it bring up an interesting point though, I know some of the Villagers have brought up the fact they held their kids back a year to give them an advantage.
I know there are some rare cases where it needs to be done for academics, but the reality is, a good percentage of kids are held back by their daddyballer fathers, looking to give them an advantage in sports.
You tend to see it a lot with the sons of football coaches across the state.

How many of these wonderful Yellowjackets are actually a bit older than the other kids in their class, and really should be a year ahead in school?

I talk to Luker quite often. Need to ask him anything?

I believe he'd be 31 or 32 now. He graduated the same year as I. We also were in the same group that went to Cancun together for our summer grad trip. But we were all angels and never did anything bad over there,,,never even had a drink.

Not sure where DC is now. I know TJD is shoeing horses. KL plays bass a little, I think mainly with his church.

Actually, all 4 semi finalist are 4A drop downs... just Stephenville, El Campo and Kilgore were new to 3A this past season. Carthage has been in 3A for a few. ;)
