#4 not bad. Four starters were not known and considered when DC received team info back in Feb. They will not be listed in magazine. I do agree Yoe is #1, and HV with those Taylor Bros transfers warrant #2 ranking. Is Scooter returning to HV for his senior year or did they move?

Gonna be fun!!!!

[Yoe_09]

I would flip HV and Yoakum. Cameron looks about right

Cameron in that spot is always right.

Bay City????

[WOS87]

I'm already nervous being ranked that high. Especially knowing Gilmer will face Carthage. WO-S has played 12 of the D2 Top 20 with losses only to Gilmer, Giddings, Wimberley and Jasper. This should be an interesting season for sure in D2.

Well, they got the No. 1's right, in my opinion. Beyond that, who knows? In Div. II, WO-S is still the favorite in Region III, by kind of a lot. Sweetwater is still the favorite in Region I, although, I'd love to see Graham or Krum challenge for that title. I totally understand why they have Cuero at No. 3, and I probably would have done the same thing. But, as of June, Wimberley would be my pick to win Region IV.

Celina's a little high at No. 4, in my opinion, but I don't know how far I'd drop them. Maybe swap them with Wimberley. The Bobcats will be better than last year, and they're on an upward trajectory over the next few years - from what I'm told - so everyone in the orange and white is hoping for another fun season.

One team that's not in the rankings right now that I could see make a jump in pretty quickly is Tatum. If the Eagles can get some stability back in their program, they've got the talent to make some noise, especially in Region II.


In Div. I, there's a decent gap right now between Carthage and everyone else. But I could still see the Bulldogs losing a game or two, or three, before a blitzkrieg postseason run. They've kinda patented that formula for some reason.

Argyle may be a bit high, but we all know what that program does and how the Eagles just continue to find ways to win. I'd probably have Midlothian Heritage a notch or two higher, just because of the experience they gained last year and what they have returning. Somerset is going to be a team to watch, in my opinion. If they can get a defense going, and develop some good pieces on offense, they've got the QB to make a deep run. And lastly, of my first impressions, Kaufman should be a little higher. That's an athletic bunch over there. I could see another fun playoff run from those guys


I love these rankings, especially this time of year, for the mere fact that they get the action going here on the boards. I've missed you guys. I'm ready to get this 2017 train rolling.

I think Alvarado was overlooked, that is usually a good thing though.

What does Navarro bring back? Are they still a legitimate top 15 team?

Maybe, but it's a big maybe imo. We'll have a bigger stronger O-Line, a 3 year starter at QB, and another stable of backs who all can be dangerous. Defense has a bunch of holes to fill. But after Giddings, La Grange, and Refugio during the preseason we should have a good idea where we stand. I still won't pick Wimbo to beat us, but it looks like it should be a slugfest this year between us for the District Title.

I have to ask why a legitimate top 15 team? We were a legitimate top 4 team last year, and it seams to me that last year is all these rankings are ever based on.... that being said 10 is mostly right. One thing to add is that Goad thinks we will be as good or better than last year!

Update: It took Salty 9 hours and 57 minutes to respond in question of Navarro's rank of 13.... That is all
