Yeah, not just small ones either…there were several with whole arm sleeve tats! I’m just gonna say it…they need to start calling it the Texas High School “ghetto-ball” State Championship cause that’s exactly what it’s turning into!! I’ve seen videos of at least 3 different all out BRAWLS that happened during the Dallas “All Stars” games yesterday!
I had the same impression based on watching the entire game. Except for a handful of big plays we actually did a good job of keeping SOC’s explosive offense in check. However, they seemed to move the ball pretty much at will against Randle. Additionally, we even moved the ball better overall against SOC than Randle IMO.
It appears that PNG was their biggest challenge since preseason at least. A 100% healthy PNG offensive firing on all cylinders would have had a shot at winning that game. Yes they’re good, but so were the Indians.
After watching most of the top 5A DII teams play on NFHS and TexanLive, I'm more convinced than ever that, with a healthy Connor Bailey, we had the best chance of beating SOC. With Bailey slinging passes to our stellar receiving corps, we would have been a challenge for their defense. Heck we moved the ball pretty well as it was. Except for a couple of turf monster stumbles, we would have been in that game. It felt like we were just waiting for an offensive spark to happen and we would have grabbed the momentum. Not to mention that we did the best job of shutting down the SOC running game by far.
Every year is going to be a different story, since they were a very heavy senior team, and might not be as strong as this years team.
Yep sux they dropped that SV game. They would have blown out LStar.
Ok. Who does this benefit or hurt? Thoughts immediately go to some school with influence that wanted this. Similar to what LH got with region 3 teams being moved to region 2.

Ones that will directly affect PNG that i know of is staying 5AD1 is Richmond Randle & Iowa Colony. Kingwood Park & New Caney Porter is 5AD2 numbers. Dont know who opted up or staying down in the Houston ISD schools. My guess PNG & Nederland be sent to Ft. Bend district while Dayton stays in Montgomery district with Porter & KWP. But who even has an educational guess when it comes to the UIL
