Anthony Simms MArlin
Not to many catcges yet but wait until the playoff start.

[Rabbit'93]

I don't think he was asking for opinions just listing the top ten in those specific categories.

[CatsDen]

Other than Chris's stats, the list should be complete. If you know of a TE that belongs in any of those top 10 lists (receptions, yards, TDs), please let me know. There are a lot of 3A teams in Texas, so I could have easily overlooked someone that deserves to be in the Top 10. Pleas provide a source for stats if I have missed anyone.

[3afan]

obviously this is a North Texas list ............

[CatsDen]

3AFan, did I miss somone? I did not intend for the list to only include North Texas players. I don't even know where Needville is, but the stats for Brett Sweeny are from the Houston Chronicle. I'm having a hard time getting stats from East Texas (Chris Miller-Longview Spring Hill).

[3afan]

i dont know - i just looked at the teams & all are in the DFW area except Needville (just W of Houston) & Spring Hill (far E Tex) .... there's a whole lot more of Texas

[CatsDen]

The San Antonio area's (25, 26, 27, and 29-3A)best TEs:

Garrison Smith (Bandera) 6-82-0
Ben Miller (Llano) 3-56-0
Dakota Williams (Cuero) 3-53-1
Will Calame (Devine) 3-43-1

Not much of a showing for that area, compared to the stats of the Top 10 listed in above post.

[everman_guy]

Anthony Spoon 1-2 0 TD's . Ok so we have never used the tight end that much.

[southtexasrat]

You can check with the Corpus Christi Caller-times paper for stats but the tightend at Sinton by the name of Lamb has been a key player in their offense and the tightend at Orange Grove - Chad DeLaune is around 16-250yds-3tds and has been out the last two games with injury.

[CatsDen]

I did check with the caller.com (thank you for the site) and they have Chad Delaune listed with 15 receptions, 242 yards, and 3 TDs. That moves him into the Top 10 List. Ben Lamb (Sinton) is listed with 6 receptions, 83 yards, and 1 TD. I appreciate your help. Can you identify the tight ends for all of the teams in 30 and 31-3A?

Dibolls TE Jamie Garcia has 33 for 493yrds, 4 tds

[CatsDen]

mistanice, how can I verify the stats? Is there a website or news source in your area that can offer stats? I knew Jamie Garcia was listed as TE in the pre-season, but I could not find any other information. That would put Jamie at the top in every category!

[CatsDen]

I'm waiting for a response from the Lufkin writer (Gary Stallard) for Diboll's #84 Jamie Garcia. Does he play TE and WR?

[mistanice]

Well I have our town's weekly paper, but I dont think they have a online site, so I guess you have no access to it. sorry!

[mistanice]

Honestly I dont know if he has been out at WR, but I know Gary can tell you that, he does play by play of all the Diboll games on radio.

[Diboll_Lumberjackk]

gotta love us being at the top :) We rely on the hot pass leave jamie open in the flat :D

[CatsDen]

Kaylon Booker was listed as the pre-season TE for Kirbyville. I will ask Gary if he can provide Broderic's stats and position. I'm finally getting replies for TEs in other areas! Those stats for Kaylon put him right in the thick of everything! Thanks for the replies. Please let me know if you can provide a source for stats and positions.

free safety.

[CatsDen]

The Houston Chronical doesn't cover District 20-3A. They only provide coverage for 21,22,23, and 28-3A. Where did you find that information listed?

[Wildcat81]

I know I had to find a team that Kirbyville played
for instance tarkington click Kirbyville and it will show up.

http://www.jamnart.com/art-intro/mascots/thumbnails/Wildcats.jpg

[CatsDen]

I found what you're talking about. They do have him listed at FS. Does he play TE or WR? Gary should know.

[mistanice]

Have you received a reply from Gary...catsden?

[tigerSville_04]

The person who posted this at first had really bad info. Who ever said those are just northern teams was right! I mean look at it its just Districts...10 12 13 14 15 i think so dude maybe you shouldn't just come out on here givin falus info out like you know it all cuz remember there are just more then 5 districts........#44.......out

[fatcat255]

He said these are all he could find on the web. He would love to have stats for more TE's if they are available. If you have a link to a site with updated stats or a recent newspaper article with season stats, share the love and let him in on the mojo.

[CatsDen]

I did receive a reply from Gary with the stats for Diboll's Garcia and Finley. Garcia must be a monster! 33 receptions, 493 yards, and 4 TDs. And what happened in week 4: 10 catches for 139 yards?! Diboll definitely shows their TE a lot of love! That easily puts Jamie at the top in receptions and yards. Bostice caught another TD last night, which puts him at the top in TDs (for now). I still haven't received confirmation for Broderick Bean from Kirbyville (20-3A)17-489-4. The only position listing I can find for him is FS. As of right now, there are representatives on the list from Districts: 8, 9, 10, 13, 14, 15, 20, 22, 28, and 31. The San Antonio area does'nt have any TEs even close to breaking into the TOP 10 in any of the categories. tigersVille04, if you can offer any help - I would appreciate it. Does your area have any tight ends worthy of Top 10 consideration? I could have easily missed more.

[CatsDen]

Here's what I got on Garcia and Finley:

Both are listed as tight ends, but Finley occasionally moves out wide and
Garcia moves into the slot. Finley is a 6'5" All-State nominee in basketball
(he's got about a 40-inch vertical leap), and a lot of his catches come on
"jump balls" (they actually practice those) where his quarterback throws it
where only he can reach it. Garcia is a kid who just finds his way open, and
he doesn't drop passes. Diboll's quarterback doesn't throw a real good deep
ball, so most of the patterns are medium routes and hot passes across the
middle.

The formations vary, from a stacked "I" (they've got two good running backs)
to a spread formation with four receivers.

Just to let you know, Finley made Dave Campbell's Top 100 Sophomores list
last season and is being recruited heavily by UT and several other Division
I schools, both for football and basketball. Garcia sort of came out of
nowhere to become the team's most reliable receiver. Like I said, he knows
how to get open and he catches everything thrown at him.

[mistanice]

Yeah, Garcia has turned out to be our silent killer this season. Not anymore, I think we gave him too much publicity lol. As for Finley, what can you say, he's an all-around athlete.

[Pudlugger]

This is my favorite Tight End in 3A even though they have him playing Right Tackle now at La Grange. One handed catch in AlamoDome endzone against Crystal City. Alby Stiffler 250 lbs 6'1" and hasn't dropped a pass he could touch in a game yet! I'm very proud of you son!

Thank you FatCat. I haven't received a response yet from the news-journal writer. That moves Chris up on the receptions list into a tie for 3rd place (no impact to yardage or TD rank). I will wait to update the list until Monday. After hearing from Gary, I wonder how many other "TEs" actually play the slot WR or are playing from spread formations? Being listed as a tight end and playing slot receiver are two different things entirely. It might be intersting to compare the pass attempts for the teams represented in the top 10 lists.
