Southlake

[PlayaJBiehl20]

I am so glad that Abilene High won yesterday. I do not care for Southlake, yes they do work hard, but also the get some pretty dang good move ins. Every Sports analyst in Texas, does nothing but sing the praises of Southlake they think they hung the moon.

Im not saying that they shouldn't be publicized, but what about when Midland Lee did it, I don't think they were on FSN week in and week out. Connections and money have a lot to do with everything.

[Gobbla2001]

they have a great tradition there and if you keep your tradition going it either dies hard or doesn't die at all...

if you had a son that was a very good 8th grade/freshmen football player and you needed to move up to that area which school would you send your kid to?

if you build it, they will come...

It be interesting to see how many of SLC starters have lived their since they were kids. I bet 20 of them have been their since atleast elementary school.

Every major program gets on TV now its just the way things have changed. SLC won mythical NC's also has something to do with it. How do you know Southlake gets move ins by the way?

#1 SLC is in the metroplex, you're gunna get more coverage where there are more cameras etc...

#2 Midland Lee did it 7 years ago... HS football coverage has grown a lot since then...

True, but I read the article in DCTF last year, they just talked about how Southlake has average athletes that just work very hard. Thats bull crap, they have the top athletes in Texas, and to sit there and say that they're some middle of the road team that just works hard is bull.

[eagle40]

they went 3 seasons and then some without a loss. that comes from more than move-ins. i'm not a huge fan of them, but i respect the hell out of them.

Chase Daniel... who else you got kid?

they have good athletes like any 5A school in the state (or most)... SLC is NOT head and shoulders above the rest of the state in talent... they'll have a good QB, a quick receiver and a good line... they do play hard... tradition also factors into these things... winning is contageous and you don't want to be that first team to suck... and when you do suck one year or so then the kids coming up want to win because that's what they saw when they were in 7th/8th grade going to all of those games...

But they do. All of their starters are working out probably before and after school everyday. Your team works out during athletics then goes home and plays xbox.

Their athletes aren't superior to any other 5A power. Those other teams in the top tier get just as many D1 recruits.

Listen im not saying they got here just from move ins. What Im saying is they view theirselves along with DCTF and FSN, as a team that is average but works to where they are. NO, they have the top athletes in Texas that is why. Don't get me wrong I respect what they've done but im not one to jump on their crotch just because of that, they're not Gods gift to HS football.

But they don't. They just know what they are doing when they step onto the field and have a good system. No offense, but they are all white, they don't have the best athletes in the state.

I guarantee you Lufkin has much better athletes then SLC but compare results. SLC is much better

No not hardly, we do the same thing, we work out before and after.

[lion75]

I don't like Southlake, but to try and discredit their success by saying it because of an inordinate amount of move-ins sounds lame.

Wow, I seriously think your an idiot, check their receivers 40 times. They all run 4.4s or low 4.5s . Look at they're line they average 280. You can't tell me they don't have athletes.

okay, I think we're all going off of different definitions of "athlete"...

I think most of us are saying that they do not have that raw, natural born talent that some other 5A teams in the state do... they do not... look at Lufkin then look at SLC... I saw 'em play in '04 and SLC didn't have as much raw talent on that field... was a good game and could have gone either way at the end there...

BUT they may play harder... I guess that could make them better athletes...

as for that raw talent, I don't think SLC is the tops in that category, though they do have talented kids...

Lufkin could have a Heisman canidate if he didn't eat as much and if Fran had used him more effectively this year...

Daniels is a great QB, no doubt... but that's one... most of us have seen both Lufkin and SLC play... we know what we're talkin' bout, yo...

Ya I see where your comin from, but Eagles-victory, said look at the d-1 signees to make the comparisons of athletes. Southlake has more d-1 signees in the past 3 years then any other High School in Texas.

SLC guysare going to places like Rice and UNT the Lufkin guys are going to TAMU, UT, Oklahoma St. as gobbla said most of us have seen Lufkin play against SLC and Lufkin was the much more athletic team. I think anyone on here would agree with that.

You don't know what your talking about!

Argyle was an all white team and I mean everyone of them! They were a very good football team!

Apparenlty you don't know anyone from Southlake

It looks like Celina-SLC envy has reared its ugly head.
