[Fat Boy]

Division 1:

even though this question was posted too early, ill answer it anyway. i want slc to win state. but i think lufkin will be too much to handle for the young slc squad next year.

[drgnbkr]

It is real early....Until we see what comes out of 7 on 7..I would also have to go with the Pack at this time...

[Fat Boy]

yeah i put all faith in my squad westfield but i think Lufkin might take D2 next year and Consol might slightly take D1 next year


and early this year Bryan won 7 on 7 but didnt make the playoffs

[KT44BG]

Whatever two idiots voted for Katy to win state next year go ahead and slap yourself b/c I got two words, NO CHANCE.

[CyFallsMom]

where is Cy Falls on this list?

Oh wait, we don't want them on there anyway - kiss of death these things are.

[Fat Boy]

Naw i said if your school wasn't added Put there name down and tell why they would win

[PurpleNation]

I also feel Lufkin should be the favorite to win state. But we were also the favorite to win state in 03 and we joined the one and done club. That off-season had to be the worst in Lufkin History. Everyday we heard One and Done if you dont want it get out. We responded and gave our best effort to win state but came up short against SLC in 04. I hope they can bring this one back to the Piney Woods next season.

[CyFallsMom]

I just feel that Cy Falls has been so close the past two years and next year is their year to finally break through. Of course, that's what everyone thinks of their team, right:D

[Fat Boy]

nope i might go to consol but aslong as Coach Slaughter is there i doubt that

[Big Daddy Cool]

It is real early....Until we see what comes out of 7 on 7..I would also have to go with the Pack at this time...

Forget the out come of 7 on 7. I think you can't really say until we see how the chips are going to fall due to realignemnt. As well as seeign what teams may be moving down or coming up.

[drgnbkr]

7 on 7 is clearly not an indicator of who will win state. My point is that there will be increased interest among the Southlake fans this summer, as we are reloading our receiving corps and have a new QB. Re-alignment, IMO, does'nt effect the top tier teams..they win in any dsitrict alignment.

[PurpleNation]

nope i might go to consol but aslong as Coach Slaughter is there i doubt that


Thats why Lufkin fired Slaughter. All-State RB was the best in the state that year and Lufkin struggled to finish 7-5-1. Denvis Manns went on to New Mexico State and rushed for over 1,000 yards every season throughout his career. Only 6 Div 1A athletes have accomplished that. So I am proud that Denvis Manns was one of them to bad Lane crushed every record he set in Lufkin except the single game rushing record (306).

[zippy]

Wow, dont even put SV up there... I guess you guys have no clue as to what the JV has been doing to opponents.. SV takes it all next year, and could have beat 90% of the teams on your list this year. You dont even list them???


Division 1:
Division 2:

tell me why that team in these Top 10 will win and if your team wasnt added well u can say your team

[XSVRanger]

I'm not gonna dignify this poll with an answer!

[zippy]

Can you believe that? Dont even get a listing and they were in the final 4 in DII and final 6 of all of 5A. Not to mention they have been there or higher the past several years. Not to mention they beat a couple of the teams that did make the list??

I am sorry the question was who will win state, not who will get to the final and lose

[zippy]

Hey at least they will make the finals. SLC is done. Early in the playoffs next year. Hope it was fun while it lasted.

I guess I will just have to be satisfied with six state championships then since you seem to know everything. I mean didn't you say that Smithson Valley was the best team this year. I guess you might be wrong every once in awhile

[VB Pack Fan]

Too early to tell, but Lufkin will be right there again, with almost all of the offense coming back except two or three. A up and coming backup qb that can take over so Thomas can stay a threat at wr.Don,t know much about the defense and how many we lose ,but some good looking juniors on D for next year

[FootballJunkie]

No Longview on the list??? This board will be in an uproar soon:eek:

[KatyTigerDad0407]

I wish there was a map that showed where the boundries were for the 4 regions. I sure R1 and R4 are vast geographically.

[Tut]

D1 & D2 is more difficult to predict with 4 teams per district in po's. Ther will be even more last game shuffling of brackets.

[Lufkin_Class_Of_08]

is slaughter the guy who coached lufkin before outlaw

[Statman/NS]

North Shore should be on the list also. A very talented team will return. We shall see, also anxious to see what district we will be in and who it is with....

[PESHfan]

Division 2:

I'm just shocked this thread wasn't started by somebody from SLC. Go figure!

:eek:

[toonman]

I think the 2006 State Champions will be a team on the list, although there some great programs missing; SV, Longview, North Shore etc. However there are so many unknown variables; UIL Realignment, 64 teams in both Divisions, Retuning players, Prospect players from JV, coaching changes etc.

However, this is the great benefit of this forum - as fans we can debate this and share information which means we can speculate and once we have some solid facts we can make an unbiased reasoned choice.

[Down n' Out]

I would add Cy-Falls and AM Cons., to the list. Katy will be better than everyone is giving them credit for.

[Fat Boy]

Late last night i was watching High School Football Report Texas 5A and SLC was mentioned to be droping back to Division 4A and more teams like from 3A and 4A will move to 5A and some teams from 5a will move up to a diffrent district

[Fat Boy]

is slaughter the guy who coached lufkin before outlaw

yes he caused our best player Daniel Palmer to get hurt for the season by moving him from running back and making him play fullback we could have used DP against Trinity reason Dimitri Nance would of had some compo in the ground game.

But the funny thing is some of our Freshmen and J.V. players where better then some of the players on Varsity

[CCHS77]

FB,

No way SLC is dropping back to 4A. Denton Ryan, yes. SLC, no.

Time to get the hearing checked, or re-evaluate the shows you watch based on credible info they say.

I don't know the numbers that Carroll turned in, but suspect it to be high 2300s.

[Fat Boy]

hey i was just saying what FSN said

[dragonsdaddy]

hey i was just saying what FSN said
sounds like fsn is getting their info from the likes of the dmn reporters.

[pack0808]

The offense will be loaded next year as everybody knows but the defense does lose a lot but return several key starters. They return their 2 best defensive lineman in R Murphy and AJ Penson, They lose all of their lb's except one in Cam Davis who really looked good when he got his shot in the playoffs, The secondary will return cb Landry cb Terry (came up from jv to start in the playoffs and was impressive) and Joe Jackson who i expect will be Lufkin's safety next year. He is a great tackler and a good coverage guy. I hear Lufkin has a lot of good defensive players coming up. Lufkin should be right there again next year.

[biki1121]

Well, let me go ahead put my neck out here.....


I think it's going to be one of the usual suspects......

we could eventually drop back to 4a if other schools keep growing...were land locked and almost built it out i think

we got alot of freshmen at Consolidated due to RITA so if u put the New Orleans kids with ours we will have more then 2500.5 students

[a&mconsoltiger]

no a&m consolidated on this list, we made it to the state semi-finals and most of our team and skill players are coming back, guess we'll have to surprise everyone like we did this year

[Fat Boy]

no a&m consolidated on this list, we made it to the state semi-finals and most of our team and skill players are coming back, guess we'll have to surprise everyone like we did this year

no offense but are u dumb this thread was made by a consol student their up there under Katy on the poll

[bullrock]

Judson gave half of their school away and they're still #16 on this list.

[DragonDomer]

I have no reason to doubt that Todd Dodge will coach the boys to an undefeated season again next year. Carroll in 2006!

[WildcatFan]

I have no reason to doubt that Todd Dodge will coach the boys to an undefeated season again next year. Carroll in 2006!

I agree and to be honest I think the Playoff Rivalry started this year between SLC and Plano was shortlived.

Due to realignment and adding 2 and 2 to the district Plano will certainly go Big School next year leaving Allen, West, FM and Lewisville to duke it out for D2.

Plano vs. Jusdon next year for D1 State Title.

Plano by 7

[Living Legend]

Im goin with Lufkin and Cy Falls as the top 2 contenders. Both squads are returing very expolsive offenses

[ftballin11]

:p None of the above... none of those teams are going to make the playoffs

[rancher52]

we could eventually drop back to 4a if other schools keep growing...were land locked and almost built it out i think
SLC build out is 30,160; they are at 25,000 now. The high school (9-12) is anticpated to hit 2680-2800 in the next 5-7 years. I don't think other growth will surpass you for at least 10 years.

[THEsouthlakeCARROLL]

I vote LP, as much as i would love to hold in my dragons at their spot ... but it just is unclear for the dragons... just wait to see if it all comes together, but judging by returners... Lufkin

[a&mconsoltiger]

no offense but are u dumb this thread was made by a consol student their up there under Katy on the poll

are you serious no offense, our starting tailback that was 1st team all district as a sophmore got hurt, our wide reciever had 60 catches and almost 1000 yards, and they're both comin back

[pack0808]

Judson gave half of their school away and they're still #16 on this list.


And they still have close to a 1,000 more students then Lufkin. ;)

[DragonPride2010_woodman]

I have no reason to doubt that Todd Dodge will coach the boys to an undefeated season again next year. Carroll in 2006!

I agree, Carroll will have a nother great team next, Riley and Newton will make a great combo, it will be tough with most of Wr's leaving, but i still think we will pull off a state title next year, we may not go undefeated though...hey you never know..

[CCHS77]

I have no reason to doubt that Todd Dodge will coach the boys to an undefeated season again next year. Carroll in 2006!

Something tells me, that the ‘06 Dragons will started with the same goals, as every year that Coach Dodge has been here.

Get Better every week.
Understand and practice/play to the “schizophrenic” nature of football. (Any actual player, or parent of a player for Coach Dodge knows exactly what that means and what is to be expected.)

Win District
Be practicing on Thanksgiving

[svstate05]

im not saying theyll win...but sv is always a contender.....please dont make fun of my name....idk how to change it haha

[Fat Boy]

are you serious no offense, our starting tailback that was 1st team all district as a sophmore got hurt, our wide reciever had 60 catches and almost 1000 yards, and they're both comin back

I think u are stupied if u read i go to A&M Consolidated i think they will win this year and Detron Lews the wide reciver with 60 catches is over rated he chocked against Trinity he droped almost every ball thrown to him and Daniel Palmer go a tast of James "Bobie" Miles type injury when u not Humble bad things happend to u and now he out with a injury and might be able to play next year from what he told me

[Consol Tiger]

no, YOURE STUPID!!!!!!!!!!!!:p

[a&mconsoltiger]

ha who is this, i know he didnt tell you he might not play next year cause i go to school everyday and i play on his team and he's never said nothing like that infact he's saying he's gonna try to run track this year if possible, and if you say detron is over rated he dropped 1 ball against trinity and if he'd of caught that ball it'd have been a hell of a catch jumping over that cornerback in the endzone, we have other good recievers but all the coaches looks at is detron and that puts alotta pressure on him

[Bootsdaddy]

Fat Boy, some of the confusion may be because your location is listed as Spring Westfield.

lol yall overate him and if it wouldnt be For Leroy Thompson and his dramatic intercepitons to the seal the games for yall Consolidated wouldnt of made it to the playoff and Kaleb Carter who made the wining TD against Harker Height Ross Rogers to win the game after Leroy Thompson saved the day with an interception in the endzone which gave consoldated the chance to hit Kaleb Carter for the game winnnig touchdown

[stevefoxsc]

its to early to say we don't know what team's can shock us what new play'ers some team's may get or lose anything can happen

[SFAlobo]

No Longview on the list??? This board will be in an uproar soon:eek:


Not actually. Longview fans know the next year will be up in the air. Lobos will basically have to field a completely new team next year, on both sides of the ball. Their success will depend on how fast the teams can gel. Although this past year was prolly the best chance to beat LP, they'll have a much tougher road ahead, even if it happens next year. Those Mesquite and Garland schools arn't scared anymore.

[a&mconsoltiger]

ha it seems that you must of wasnt at the harker heights game cause the person who caught the interception in the endzone was terence watson, leroy got an interception that game but it wasnt in the endzone it was terence watson the junior cornerback, and why does you thing say spring wesfield and you talk so much about a&m consolidated??????

Cuz im a student at Consolidated and im moving back to Spring Westfield for the 2006 football season and Leroy Thompson did intercept the ball in the endzone with less then 1 min left in the game when Harker Heights was trying to score again to seal up the victory so u must of not been at the game

[Pack Daddy]

The offense has a solid o-line at center and tackles ... might need to work on the guard positions as they were pretty weak this past season. The D will be strong too - lots of talent on the way!

[c-lisle]

my heart still has me voting for Lufkin. I guess if SLC has a down year, and by "down" I mean 10-1 or 10-2, Lufkin might very well take it. Ludkin's been thinking that the past two years though.

[a&mconsoltiger]

game


I WAS ON THE FIELD, IT WASNT IN THE ENDZONE IT SET UP THE DRIVE FOR US TO SCORE

[ImBaaaaaaack]

No hype about the Katy Tigers? Come on guys...

[a&mconsoltiger]

maybe because katy is losing alot of their key players and teams like ours have all of them coming back, not saying katy isnt going to be good or something but thats why

[KT2000]

Southlake Carroll, Lufkin, Katy, A&M Consolidated, Garland, North Shore, San Antonio O'Connor and Cy Falls are some teams that have caught my attention with what they have back as well as what's on the way up.

Go ahead and throw Judson and Smithson Valley (if 5A) in there also. Judson, Smithson Valley, Carroll and Katy seem to be in the same boat each year these days. It doesn't seem to matter who graduates because they just reload.

Southlake Carroll lost arguably the best QB-RB tandem in school history only to follow up with another state title, and the school's most potent air attack. Katy lost a 2,400 yard rusher (James Aston) after the 2004 season and many didn't think the Tigers would contend this year without him. The Katy offense went on to break or tie 19 school records on the way to a 14-1 season. People said Judson couldn't contend without Kyle Fox, and they went to state anyway. Smithson Valley just produces sound football teams every year under Coach Hill.

[dada]

Division 1:
Division 2:

tell me why that team in these Top 10 will win and if your team wasnt added well u can say your team
Broncos???? Did Westfield change mascots?

[PantherStang84]

Until Consolidated makes a coaching change, I think they'll be home watching on Championship weekend.

I moved to Lufkin just before Slaughter's last year here. I remember watching the Panthers that year thinking, "Man, Lufkin has got some athletes. If they had a good coach they could win some football games." The football gods must have been listening because we all know what happened next. :cool:

[ScottS]

Do both SLC and Lufkin look like they will be in D2?

i would have to disagree,coach slaughter may not of done well in his 1 year at lufkin but but he is a great coach and great motivator, im glad i get another year to play for him

You are 'thinking about thinking'.

[bullrock]

I remember Slaughter when he was coaching Corpus Christi Carroll in the eightys. I used to think he didn't have talent enough to be beat us and he moved to Lufkin with the same results. Carroll still hasn't done a lot since he left but look at Lufkin. I also remember a boyish looking QB coach standing on the sidelines with Slaughter in Corpus. I can still see that baby face standing there and I always wondered what he was thinking as we dismantled his team every time we played them in the playoffs. This QB coach was straight out of The University of Texas. Can anybody guess who I'm talking about?:rolleyes:

[bullrock]

No. Sorry if it's confusing. I meant who do you think this young QB coach was?

[PantherStang84]

Can anybody guess who I'm talking about?


This is a wild one, but my guess his initials are TD.

[a&mconsoltiger]

dont know his first name but is his last name dodge

[dragons08]

dont know his first name but is his last name dodge
todd dodge is coach
riley dodge is son/qb

[poppy]

lufkin
could be...lots of guys return.
could very well be the year of the panther...
slc will be down some....
katy will be looking to 2007....
plano?????
e. trinity had their ride in '05
sv will be good but not a contender for
all the marbles....

i'll take lufkin all the way in '06....:cool:

[PantherStang84]

Geez Poppy.

Thanks for putting the jinx on Lufkin.

[bullrock]

Okay admins. You officially have your state champ pick for next year. Let's see if you can keep the streak going and see if Lufkin can handle the pressure.

[Jtate862003]

With as many players coming back as lufkin has why wouldnt everyone pick LP for state...LOL

[Red Raiders]

I think Laredo South will win it all... ;)

[dmc 77]

I do think Lufkin will win state next year, but I also thought we had the talent the past few years too. But we have not been able to beat one little team from Southlake. (hat's off to them...) But Lufkin has had a good run,,,

State Champions in 2001,
Semi-Finals in 2002, 2004, 2005

(64-8) not a bad run and we will be stronger next three years...:cool:

[BAMF cowboy]

you have a golden opporunity next year in lufkin. with all that talent coming back, and that one little roadblock looking down next year, next year is as good a time as any to go state and win.

[stevefoxsc]

some team from el paso :p

[dragonfan22]

yeah i agree...well southlake has like 2 dodge and newton with the expirence..so their offense might be a little bumpy the first couple games but they will be the dragons everybody knows by the middle of the season. lukin seems to be getting better each year. so we will have a great time looking up after them in 'o6.
i wouldnt be surprised if they beat the dragons in the playoffs :p

[t00 playa]

North Shore. :eek:

[Ladypack34]

The offense will be loaded next year as everybody knows but the defense does lose a lot but return several key starters. They return their 2 best defensive lineman in R Murphy and AJ Penson, They lose all of their lb's except one in Cam Davis who really looked good when he got his shot in the playoffs, The secondary will return cb Landry cb Terry (came up from jv to start in the playoffs and was impressive) and Joe Jackson who i expect will be Lufkin's safety next year. He is a great tackler and a good coverage guy. I hear Lufkin has a lot of good defensive players coming up. Lufkin should be right there again next year.


yeah the whole o-line is coming back (go #71) and our offense will be loaded...our d will be fine...cam davis will be great next year..and we have a freshman coming up Jamarcus Macfarland...he's good..he's big...all in all if we dont win state...i will be suprised ...good luck to everyone next season!

[alnegle07]

Allen!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Lots Of Returning Players Like Dick And O!

[g-town07]

Garland will win
if they can make it to the 3rd round again, anything can happen, and trust me, we arent gonna let another team like copperas cove stop us

[Slim-Rob]

hey Fat Boy, Westfield is the Mustangs not the Broncos. I must have missed something, because I am very confused now.

[a&mconsoltiger]

i would have to say we will make it to atleast the semi's if not the state championship, we have every skill person we had last season comin back this season

[Down n' Out]

I have another post on this, but I think A n' M Consol. and Cy Falls can be the two teams that are dark horses for state.

[CoveMom]

Not that Cove would win (although you always hope:D ), but with us PROBABLY going to 4A, I have to go with Lufkin. Go Piney Woods!

[OILERDT54]

none of these teams are gonna win state. its all about pearland!!!

[Pack Daddy]

none of these teams are gonna win state. its all about pearland!!!

ROFLMAO!! Good one!

[Plano]

Is everyone here blind?

Seriously Southlake winning state? There whole team is seniors except for Newton who honestly is not even that great, hes able to break long runs because he defense's he plays drop all their backs to stop the pass.

Don't get me wrong this isn't some rag on southlake cause we got beat by them post, this is all true. Its all about PLANO going all the way, we got a better running back and quarterback this year not to mention an amazing O/D Line...

D2 or D1-Plano...

[dragonfootballfan]

If you look at the results Carroll does not have the most votes. They have almost half as many votes as Lufkin. If you read this thread you would find that many Carroll posters have voted for Lufkin.

With that said, it is a pretty safe vote to say Carroll. They have won three of the last four championships and been to four straight finals. There were no contributors on the 2005 dragons that were contributors on the 2002 dragons. Just because they do not return that many people - 1 on offense, 4/5 on defense it does not mean that they will not be successful.

If you look at the results Carroll does not have the most votes. They have almost half as many votes as Lufkin. If you read this thread you would find that many Carroll posters have voted for Lufkin.

Hey, I voted for Lufkin..but we'll see what happens in the fall..who knows? Carroll has proven they can re-load with the best of them..3 state titles in 4 years with 3 different QB's...

[Texasfrog]

Southlake Carroll probably will make a serious run again.. they just reload and they have R. Dodge at the QB.

Lufkin will also make some noise...

[toonman]

It is very difficult to make such a prediction so early in the year, but there is no harm in fans engaging in some playful forecasting and predictions. I agree with many of the posters. Lufkin does appear to have a solid foundation of retuning Juniors, coupled with a very strong and enduring program. The extra team entering the play-offs in D1 will also make for some interesting match-ups; as we will probably see some of the D2 powerhouses now in D1 - SLC for example.

My January 2006 forecast, for which I reserve the change my opinion at any time in the future following the submission of this post, are D1 North Shore: and D2 Lufkin.

Seeing teams like Pflugerville and The Woodlands on this list makes me laugh. I just tell it like it is and i'm telling you, i think we can easily beat both of those teams next year. Two years ago and Last year were Pflugervilles "teams" that were supposed to take them somewhere. Well they both had the same results losing in the 2nd round. And we've beaten them 3 out of the last 4 years for district (i know, its a point i use very often). And i've always thought The Woodlands was one of the most overrated teams of all time.

[a&mconsoltiger]

we're gonna be the team that surprises everyone like we did this year by making it to the semifinals,we got unanimous as a sophmore rb palmer back,all district reciever lewis who nearly had 1000 recieving yards, and the #1 kicker in the nation szymanski, and a defense that returns many that shut down antwann cobb,donald buckram, ryan montague and more, look out for us

[pack0808]

Judson gave half of their school away and they're still #16 on this list.


OK this is getting nauseating. They gave up half of their school and they still have a 1,000 more then school's like Lufkin. Come on rock do not use that as an excuse.

[zippy]

SV is taking it all, couple of setbacks this past season, but now they have what they have been lacking, and will surprise a lot of people, which would have to be win state, and that is what will happen. Going to be nice...

[KT2000]

SV must have some serious talent on the way up for you to make that statement zippy. I don't doubt that SV can reload with the best of them. They are one of those programs where returning players really don't seem to matter as much. That said, SV must replace a very talented senior class that's graduating. The losses on defense are the biggest in my opinion.

However, SV has a very good program and I won't be surprised to see them play into December again this Fall.

[t00 playa]

what are the possibilities of having a North Shore vs Southlake matchup.. or a NS vs Katy matchup?

those would be two games I would want to see.....:eek:

and i see NS didnt even make the list of 16 or how ever many on the list... :eek:

[Miss Kitty]

The team with the highest score at the end of the final game in December will will state. :p :D

You guys just need to go D-2 where all of the competition is... :p

with another playoff team added to div I... i dont think its even a possibility anymore.... i dont think it was even a possiblity regardless.... but.. i was thinking more along the lines of Southlakes possibility or katy going div I now with the new system.... i know last year there were chances that both could have gone DI....... will the new playoff system better those chances???:eek:

Man who knows? Depends how things shake out as usual....

[bulldawg]

I am shocked that there was not one El Paso school on the list...they are always a possible to win state........right:D :p

Remain shocked!:D

[Upset=Consol06]

Forget about the polls. The top teams will be exposed early on. Consolidated is playing Katy, Phlugerville, and Austin Westlake in the begginning of thier season, if they comeout ahead in those games then they will clearly be the top team.

You mean if ACM wins those three games they will be the top team of that group?......:D

[coogs78]

Looking at who has the largest number of blue chip players returning, I say Berkner has to be the early favorite. How did that program all of a sudden grow legs overnight?

they lost a great chance last year when qb johnson broke his jaw. they would have given et a great game had it occurred. they may be a flash in the pan, esp if their coach gets a big opportunity to move up. if he stays, watch for them to stick. they got a taste last year, and have the players to do it again.

[dada]

I'm riding with Northshore.....they always have talent and after the past two seasons where the cruised through the regular season and folded once they got to the playoffs and someone put up a fight, I think they will do the same regular season wise, then shift into high gear and play like they are possesed when the playoffs come around and there will be no Westfield.

Come on now I said if they come out ahead which would mean winning. Do yall teach anything but football at Carrol.:confused:

[dada]

Cove has 4 votes...they will be 4A this year right?

[dragonsdaddy]

you need to read before spouting off. his comment was that you predict that winning those 3 games would prove you were the best(anywhere, or in that area, or between those 4 teams?). you would certainly move up in the rankings with 3 wins vs those teams.

[drgnbkr]

I guess your name says it all...upset...Notice my smiley emoticon..I guess if you have'nt noticed, they teach winning at Carroll, and not just at Football....:confused:

[KT2000]

Yeah, Cove is 4A. This poll was probably made pre alignment.

Consolidated does play a tough non-district without a doubt, and they have a chance to make an early statement because of that.

However, champions aren't crowned in September/October.

Oh noooooooo. Return of the T82's. :eek: :rolleyes: Ease up newbie. Consol will be good but you will find out real quick that you don't just jump in here and start spewing trash just because your team has a chance to go far or win it all. We have seen many come in here and start talking trash once their team started doing good and then when they were put out of the playoffs they disappear. Good luck this year. Oh and stick around win or lose.

[Gtown2006]

speaking of cove they are gonna tear up 4a next year

but i was gonna say give garland a shot i think now that rockwall is in our district we might see lufkin first or second round. could be fun

I think there are several interesting new 4-A teams next year..Fossil Ridge was very competitive in 5-A and Denton Ryan rarely lost in 5-A and almost never in 4-A

I dont know about folded as being the correct word... NS is always a contender... and always in the top 5 mentioned as realistically having a good chance of bringing home the hardware..... however, they have lost to some pretty good teams in the playoffs .. IKE a couple of times(in their heyday), madison led vincent young, a high calibur westfield team twice....they probably should have won a few of those losses.. but hey... being up there and getting over the top every year is tough.... I really like NS chances this year because they have so many players returning and all district players as well.... QB will be the question mark but i dont see them having any problem with fizer.. in fact.. i think fizer will make them even more dangerous than they were last year..... so hopefully with NS reloading they will at least win the region... and after that... its anybodys title up for grabs....:eek:
