Lay down the crack pipe and step away from the ledge! Their schedule IS awesome but they will be fine. My guess is that you have never been to Brownwood Lion football game. I won't go so far as to predict a state championship at this point but in about 4 weeks we will have a good idea how this years team stacks up. They will have played both LH and La Vega.

They have a hard schedule for pre season, and looks like 3-4 tough district opponents. Even if they do win6, 7, or 8, they will be tough in the playoffs. All you have to do is get in, then make some noise.

As much as I would like to see Rocket eat crow (I say see, because I would drive to Brownwood to see him eat it, feathers and all), I think Brownwood will go 8-2 and advance until Liberty Hill beats them again in the playoffs. They will go undefeated in district play, but the four letter L words will be too much for them this year (LHHS and LVHS). Prove me wrong, Lions, because I know that other than me (a LH fan by proxy) there are plenty of people on this board that would get quiet satisfaction in seeing the Panthers go down.

Welcome to the board. I see by your post that you know a lot about football. With Vaccaro gone to Early, they will struggle to go 5-5.

NO kidding, even Brownwood people are tired of reading about Brownwood (good or bad) on the downlow.... but since I am posting I will give my prediction.

I dont think we will go 10-0 in the reg season but I think we will have a good year. Schedule is very tough.

I say some where between 6-4 and 8-2 in the regular season and if we are 6-4 we could loose one district game. With that being said, we will still be the top sead from our district in DII and make a strong run in the playoffs and hopefully will roll all the way into a December State title. No guarntee, no cockiness, just a little homer in me along with a little realizm

By the way, I hope AW stuggles and misses the playoffs, nothing personal against Wylie, I just think the road to state will be eaiser in DI this year.

In 2002, Brownwood went 6-4. Also went to the Semifinals in 4A in 2002. What's your point? We also played our first game of the 2002 Season in the Alamodome. ;)

Yep. A little background info... We should have been 3A in the last realignment. Katrina hit and we had alot of move ins to Brownwood. It was a timing thing. We were like 25 kids over the cutoff when the enrollment numbers were submitted for 2006. Alot of those kids came and went.

Now we are even less and yes, Abilene Wylie had a bigger enrollment than 4A Brownwood last season.

:doh: UIL is yet to put Wylie in 4A and Wylie ALWAYS seems to have just the right amount of students to remain 3A. Funny..

It is confusing, but the reality of it is that lots of Brownwood athletes are now moving to Early, which is why their numbers are below Wylies'. I heard at the Whataburger that the main reason that they are leaving BW and going to Early is because BW's offseason program is too "rinky-dink", and that the Early stadium is nicer, Early has more tradition, etc. etc.:D

And if Brownwood is so great; then why are someone BW posters wanting Wylie to misses the play-offs so BW can go to Div I?

People in Brownwood are saying that Early has some move in players from Stephenville and some other schools as well.Early has a very good school system and has good sucess the last few years .As far as tridition is concerned Brownwood far excedes laVega ,Liberty Hill ,Celina ,Cureo,or Burnet in that area..Let any of them lose a game or two and their tridition will go out the door.Brownwood has played Waco High ,Copperas Cove,and Midway the last few years so the boys are use to competion.The one advantage that the Liberty Hill ,Celina , Cureo teams have is that the weak schedules and districts they are in means they have to get up for a game very seldom due to the weak competion so they usually have pretty good records .I have no dog in this hunt ,but would like to see the above teams play in the Wos or Bownwood dist and see how well they perform.This might calm them down a little so they would get off Brownwood back .I really belive that their fear is showing.

I do not want you to miss this fact but it is quite simple. In the last 50 years overall or by decade there are four schools that appear in the top ten in the state all classifications with either the most wins or best winning percentage or both. And Brownwood is not one of them.

Celina, Southlake Carroll, La Marque are 3 of them and Celina was number one on that list 3 times starting with the last ten years the last 20 and 40 years at number one. I think that would not be classified as a short term deal. Brownwood does not make that list but once in the top 10 over the same time frame. Not knocking their tradition mind you. But they are not the only ones in the state with a long and storied tradition.

Just for fun I will take that bite. A championship is special no matter what the venue or opponent. IF it is not special for us then what you did has no meaning either. We do have titles in 3 classifications. Plano has them in all classifications. You play who you line up against and you win. That is all you can do. And Celina has had to play a lot of good teams to have that many wins. Whether you like it or not.

Mighty 2A's?
Celina could have and did beat most 3A teams, a lot of 4A teams and some 5A teams in the past 10 years.
I think Celina would give SLC a run for their money, I dont know if they could beat them.
Incidently, Goldthwaite is now 1A, put a but whooping on 3A Burnet the last time they played in 94 by a score of 32-0.
Lets see what Brownwood does.

Doubt we could beat SLC, but it would be close, lol. Rocket, we hear this argument every year so this is nothing new. You think Brownwood could go 68 wins in a row, 4 titles in a row if you played in 2a? You or I don't know the answer to that. Regardless, it's still impressive isn't it no matter what classification?

Funny you should mention who we've played over the past 10 years. Celina is the winningest high school football program in Texas the last ten years with a 143-7 record. What you got for a record over the past 10 years? Don't forget, we've been in 3a now for a while, state game two years in a row. Lost one to a great LH team and won one against a pretty good China Springs squad.

No doubt it's gonna be interesting with BW in the mix. I don't know anything about your team this year and I wish you the best. I look forward to the weeks to come to see how all this plays out cause that's what people like you and I do.

For what you have done in your class and in the last few years, I give you respect. But to say what have you done Brownwood in the last 10 years? LOL come on now... Like you said, can't accurately compare that. Brownwood has been down somewhat, but we still win.

I really do think it is hilarious that Celina fans think they could have beaten or even come close to beating those great SLC teams. That is some funny stuff. That is where you are losing grip on reality.

I think Celina would give SLC a run for their money, I dont know if they could beat them.
Incidently, Goldthwaite is now 1A, put a but whooping on 3A Burnet the last time they played in 94 by a score of 32-0.
Lets see what Brownwood does.

Goldthwaite had some good football in the early 90's...

I know one other thing about the bobcats that makes them special. I coach the little guys and enjoy it. They are all great boys with good parents who most of them come to all the practices as well as the games. I take great pride in the fact that they allow men like me to work with their children because I enjoy it so much. I give those boys the best I have because they deserve it. And because one day some of those boys will be bobcats. And I want them to grow up understanding the same thing I see year in and out for these
champions. Heart, Desire, Character. Whether we win or lose we play with character. We knock you down as hard as we can. Then we help you up and go at it again. I wish you all the best because I want to see everyone learn that it is not winning but how you play the game. If you win like we do the more the better. Good Luck Rocket and BW. I hope you have a great season and no serious injuries.

I really do think it is hilarious that Celina fans think they could have beaten or even come close to beating those great SLC teams. That is some funny stuff. That is where you are losing grip on reality.


Yea I agree!

Celina is no dout a good team, or was last year but not good enough to beat SLC or Abilene High at that.

If I can jump in on this question...

I dont think that a state championship in any classification is "better" than a championship in any another classification, however....

Yes, I do beleive the kids in the higher classifications are better, on average. Of course they work just as hard, but you know as well as i do that the sheer numbers make the odds of having more kids that are bigger, faster, stronger much more probable in the big schools. It's just a fact....go read the stats sheets.

Regarding the coaching...taken as a group, I would also have to say the better coaches are in the bigger classifications. Not as a rule....on average. It's a natural progression cuz thats where the money is (again, on average).

Thanks for your input. And you do make some good points (on average), some of your opinions I disagree with. But I still want a response from Rocket. Okay, take away that there may be more talent and such in the higher classifications......

I hear you. Thats just silly. Just like saying a baseball or volleyball or basketball championship is not as significant as football, right? It might not be as significant to one person, but it definitely is just as significant to those involved!!!

Heck no.. a state championship is special no matter what. They are hard to win no matter what (relevant only to the respective classification). Now, they are easier to win given the 2 Divisions now. I think the coaching is probably better in the higher classifications (overall) by default because of the way the coaching world works (better coaches moving up to 4A and 5A after success in 2A and 3A) and the HIGHER level of competition, because I know firsthand of this, being brought up by a coach and having coached for 4 years myself. It could also be argued that a 5A State Championship is harder to win than a 2A Championship. It's apples and oranges, but I think the competition is on a whole nutha level up there. So no, Celina of the 90's could not hang with the SLC of the 00's. Not even close. Would be a flat out rompin'.

To sum it up, when you start comparing a butt load of 2A State Championships to a buttload of 5A State Championships, who is better and who beat better teams overall? It is an argument that can't be won. The only thing that can't be taken away is tradition and winning IN 2A and a little 3A, which is what Celina has. Yes, they won. Yes, they have 8 State Championships. BUT, you can't really throw that in the face of teams that haven't played in 2A. What would Brownwood have done in 2A? We'll never know... What would Celina have done in 4A? We may never know (anytime soon). This all started when BILLY started saying they are or were 1st in the state in success and started throwing his name around with the likes of SLC and LaMarque... Celina may have the stats, but they need to remember that they didn't play either one of those teams (Thank God that they didn't for their sake). When tooting their own horn they need to do it with within the confines of their calssification... just add a (in 2A) to the end of it and I will be happy.

That's just my 2 cents...

But then you have to consider this also, Rocket. Lets say you put Brownwood in 2A. That means you have to lose at least 480 kids from your enrollment, and you know they won't all be nerds and girls. Now how do the chances of dominating 2A schools look? Lets say you take a currently dominate Celina team and add 500-600 kids, which is what it would take to get them up to the 4A level. With the added depth and talent from sheer numbers, should they be able to compete with good 4As and average 5As now? Its all relative to size. I know you know this already, but you haven't really said so yet.;)

Not sure I got it alright, but he was saying their might be a UIL violation or something and some star m ay not get too play. Anyone in BW know anything about that?

Just to clarify, I`m not starting a rumour or nothing, just curious as we started talking football, which is off subject for us, and he started telling me how the communities don`t really see eye to eye on sports stuff and started telling me about the meeting they called for tonight and the other district schools were complaining or something to that affect. JUst curious as if it pertains to Early or Brownwood.

Lucky for him too, because he doesn't look like a six man player does he? That particular picture has five juniors on the field. #2 is in a Tech uniform and #18 is wearing a McMurray uniform this fall. #12 is one of the best players in the big country this fall, LB Jesse Jennings. He's worth the price of admission to watch.

This is old news, my friend. All went down last week. The meeting is being held tonight to discuss if a player from Brownwood will be able to move to Early and play. He has already transfered to Early and has been practicing with them and even played in a scrimmage with them. The District Exec Committee meets to vote if he will be eligible to play (basically if he moved for football or not, and they will have to provide proof that he did not move for football reasons).

He "was" a D-1 recruit until he decommitted to UT this week. You will have to do some research on the board to find the threads talking about it.

Excuse me, but if they had left that Soph in the game at QB Wylie would have won by double digits. Until they took him out Wylie was having their way with the Lions. It was #11 who came in and Bwood went to an option game that caught Wylie by surprised that won that game for Brownwood, and Wylie had the ball first and goal on the 4 yardline at the end of the game with a chance to win anyway. But to answer you question YES, the seniors in that picture where juniors. And it was at Shotwell, not our place.

Last years game was very competitive and could have went either way. If you were there is didn't see it that way then your beyond bias, but after reading most of your post I'd say your that way anyway.

Yeah you're right...we put Munsen in after the Soph struggled. Either way, Wylie got their butt beat, just like last year.

Yes, I was at the game last season. It wasn't what I would call a great game, by any stretch. That late run gave you some hope, and that made me a little nervous. But other than that, wasn't much of a game. IMO

I also remember the huge hit that got put on that Wylie kid at the end of the first game we played. OUCH. Denied.

Do you also remember the "only" holding call of the entire game after Wylie threw a pass down to the "2" yardline with about 2:00 minutes remaining.

What am I talking about, there noway you would probably remember that.

I only say that because it was a huge call. I have never once made it an excuse to lose, but I couldn't resist throwing it your way since were on the topic.
