Shocked at this

#2 Carthage
Nah... it’s the kiss of death for both Argyle and WO-S. Hopefully we’ll get that pesky target off our backs when we play Newton 9/14.
I’m getting a Stephenville vs Liberty Hill kind of feeling...
Lots of football and factors to play out though...
Carthage lost way too much to be ranked #1. Now if I am doing rankings and I have a back to back champion on a 26 game win streak, then sure I will put them 1. But Carthage graduated 5 x 3 year starters who all signed to play college ball. And 6-7 x 2 years starters with 2 of them signing D1 scholarships. I know we reload, but damn. When you lose 7 scholarship players with 4 of them being D1 talent and 2 others likely to be D1 players after JUCO (Gates and Colbert), that’s hard to say you are not rebuilding.
Gonna be tough for Ville with LV on that side of the bracket now. Year in and year out it’s going to be tough for teams to handle LV size and athleticism. Plus Don Hyde is a hell of a coach. If LH can get past Carthage/Kilgore/Henderson then more power to them. Not an out of the question pick.
Gimme LV vs Carthage in the ship. Mark it down.
I still have a lot of questions about LV. I know they'll be athletic. I know Hyde will do just fine. But they lost some key pieces. And they're going to have to get through a silly-deep Region II. If I had to pick a state title game today, I'd probably pick Melissa vs. Liberty Hill. But, we haven't even played the 7-on-7 state tournament yet, so, we got a ways to go.
Thanks, OM!
A few thoughts:
1) Argyle at No. 1 is a surprise.
2) Kennedale is a little too high for me.
3) Melissa is way too low for me.
4) Hirschi cracks the top 10 simply because DCTF needed a Region I team, and because D. Foster is going to be the best player in 4A. He'll win PoY, in my opinion, and I think he alone is enough to bring the Huskies a Region I title.
I didn't subscribe this year and figured I'd wait for it to hit the news stands, but it just showed up in my mailbox. I'm getting emails that my subscription has expired, however I haven't renewed it. Unless one of my kids renewed it as a fathers day present and never told me, I guess this helps make up for the multiple years I ended up with two copies.
