A lil more on Carrollton Ranchview

[Matthew328]

Talked to a couple of coaches in the Carrollton-FB ISD a couple of days ago and both told me Ranchview very well could win 7-3A they were surprised that Ranchview was even aligned in 3A....the one constant about Ranchview was speed, speed, speed....lots of good skill kids...Ranchview's JV was 9-1 last year losing to a private school varsity I beleive..saw another post on theoldcoach.com saying Ranchview's 9th grade group had never lost a game til last year and that was to a JV squad...dunno if I am gonna pick Ranchview to win a district that Decatur is in...BUT I think they have a real good shot at finishing 2nd....but in 2005 WATCH OUT!

[Old Tiger]

That is pretty impressive.

[Old Green]

So. Are they going to field a varsity made up of sophomores and Juniors?

[Matthew328]

Yes they will be....the JV last year played 4A and 5A JV's and some private school varsitys and I think went 9-1

[Old Green]

I now understand why everyone is saying watch for 2005.

[kaorder1999]

well...their coaching staff ticked me off at a track meet this year. They had a kid running a 10.8 or 10.7 and ran him on JV. Said they wanted the kid to "win" so thats why they ran him on JV. The coach said to me, "It's a coaching thing". It was kind of like I was asking a stupid question when everyone in the freaking stadium was thinking the same thing. Thats just stupid. He would have gotten second on Varsity

In the 1999 football season LW was in the same district with Aledo, Glen Rose,etc. In that season North Crowley competed in our district since they had just split off from Crowley HS. They played with juniors and under and were competetive although they didn't make the playoffs. We hosted them that year and everyone remarked how strong they were going to be in the future. Trivia Time: Name the 2003 UIL 4A DIV.II State Football Champions.

Well it just goes to show the old saying that hindsight is always more accurate than foresight.

[slpybear the bullfan]

Yea. I am thrilled that we will get to play a 4a or 5a size powerhouse in our little ole 3A district in 2005. I can't wait.

*sigh*

Ranchview has a great boys BB coach --- his name is Dee Boyd. He was Jason's summer league coach for 3-4 years and likes to run, run, and run some more.
