Texasball Posted March 27, 2017 Report Share Posted March 27, 2017 Desoto TX Boys this weekend with all 10th graders ran 3:17.74 4 x 400 that would put them at # 15 nationally - Keep in mind that Desoto has the nations #1 time with 3:11.53 If there is a school with more athletes across the board than Desoto, I sure would like to hear about them...

TheRealCAJ Posted March 27, 2017 Report Share Posted March 27, 2017 My goodness. Desoto should have a 100 NFL players by now. What are they? About 96 short....without checking... No answer required. Meanwhile.....St Aug (NOLA) is still pumping them out.... Later..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Texasball Posted March 27, 2017 Report Share Posted March 27, 2017 Wheeler HS TX athlete Traylen Drake High Jumped 6'10 this past weekend. Ranks him tied for 9th in the country - pretty impressive for kid coming from this very small school. Wheeler is class 2A Div 2 in football - So that puts them in the very smallest 11 man football Division in the UIL - Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you say so. You do know St Aug has won a MNC in basketball and is considered a national power any given year.... Your preseason track thread always amuses us though. Watch the NFL draft.

Prog8r Posted March 27, 2017 Report Share Posted March 27, 2017 Cocoa has a little speed as well with Javian Hawkins and the Freshman QB Caziah Holmes (turned in a 10.6 in the 100 earlier this year). It will be interesting to see how much quicker he can get. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
golfaddict1 Posted March 27, 2017 Author Report Share Posted March 27, 2017 The IAAF World Championships are this summer in London. The USA T&F champ. is June 23-25 (qualifying for the World Champ to rep USA). Less than 3 months to go for high school sprinters to qualify and thus far 3 I am aware of have... Symone Mason Southridge HS, FL: 100 & 200, Sydney McLaughlin from NJ in the 400 and Tyrese Cooper Norland, HS, FL in the 400. These are the men's entry standards to qualify to compete in June in Sacramento. You're not going to see too many HS kids reaching these times and Cooper met the 400 at 16. 100: 10.12 200: 20.44 400: 45.50 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRealCAJ Posted March 27, 2017 Report Share Posted March 27, 2017 What high school track looked like in 1994 St Aug (NOLA) had the 3rd best 4x200 at 1:25.54 nationally. Acadiana, La has the 2nd fastest 4x200 ar 1:25.3 nationally. http://lynbrooksports.prepcaltrack.com/ATHLETICS/TRACK/1994/us_topmk.pdf Both times would be #1 in 2017 so far.

Only the foolish like Dallas Jackson and I guess yourself don't see the correlation between HS track and Field and HS Football. Let me tell you something else I have spent much time in Louisiana and every single coach I have discussed this with agrees with me. Louisiana produces good track and field results based on state size and it correlates to the football field on Friday nights. Last I checked you don't need to be NFL draft pick to have been a beast in HS ? . Can't we agree on that? It's not like Texas hasn't produced some really good NFL players throughout history! Just saying! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Texasball Posted March 27, 2017 Report Share Posted March 27, 2017 Just for the record Cajun - Top 10 all time 4x200 - 9 of 10 are from Texas and the other is Glenville OH sitting in the 3rd spot for the record when looking at the top 14 times ever recorded in the 4x100m all of them are from Texas except for 2 FYI - Kid from Louisiana hold the all time record in the pole vault Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRealCAJ Posted March 27, 2017 Report Share Posted March 27, 2017 I think we can agree that you make too much of this football/track thing. I might mention a Leonard Fournette running a 10.6 100M or Speedy Noil running a 10.4 100M and etc. If you would mention a track time with a stud football player that's getting with the program and makes perfect sense. Mentioning everyone in TX that puts on track shoes and tying it into football is silly as silly can be....in fact, it totally ridiculous. In Louisiana football kids run track, play basketball, wrestle and etc.......wrestling in La is 10 times better than TX. Landry-Walker just won our 5A football and basketball state championships.....5 or 6 football on the basketball team, two starters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRealCAJ Posted March 28, 2017 Report Share Posted March 28, 2017 St Aug (NOLA) is 4th nationally among high schools in producing NFL players......they will have 37 this year after Leonard Fournette is taken in the first round. This video was from 2013. St Aug has added 3 more since. Nice video about St Aug Desoto is tied at #67 (count?) with 14 NFL players produced. I give will give you Desoto track you give me St Aug football...deal? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I give will give you Desoto track you give me St Aug football...deal? You have always missed the point on Desoto and probably Cedar Hill too. These two schools haven't had the demographics they have now very long. The hard core truth is the blacks started moving in like crazy in the 90's and the vast majority of the white families with kids moved off...I am not trying to start race issue, just stating the facts! Hell, we played CH back in the 80's and don't recall them having 1 black kid when played them! Plus, we kicked that ass too! You give the current demographics at Desoto the same time frame that St. Aug has had to produced 37 and you will see big difference. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I really don't care what the demographics are anywhere....St Aug is great at producing football players. There are black schools nationally with 4 times the enrollment of St Aug who have 8 or 10 NFL players........it can't be denied. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheRealCAJ Posted March 28, 2017 Report Share Posted March 28, 2017 Know this..... St Aug has a student enrollment of 600 or so (all boys, black).......they would be a small TX TAPP.

Texasball Posted March 28, 2017 Report Share Posted March 28, 2017 Throughout the 1990s, DeSoto experienced a significant change in the demographic composition of the city. In the 1990 census, whites constituted 75.97% of the city's population, but that figure had declined to 48.83% in the 2000 census, and 17.4% non-Hispanic white by 2010. By contrast, the African American population grew rapidly. In 2000, African Americans were 45.53% of the population, up from 20.83% in 1990. Hispanics accounted for 4.98% of the population in 1990 and 7.30% in 2000. As of the 2010 Census, DeSoto had a population of 51,102. 68.6% of the population was Black, 17.4% was non-Hispanic white, 0.4% American Indian and Alaska Native, 0.9% Asian, 1.9% from two or more races. 12.1% of the population was of Hispanic or Latino origin.[9] Mostly African-American Students 1,843 students, or 81.0% of the student population at Desoto H. S. identify as African-American, making up the largest segment of the student body. A typical school in Desoto is made up of 54.7% African-American students, so Desoto H. S. has a drastically different ethnic distribution compared to other schools in the city. The demographic breakdown of Desoto H. S. is drastically different from that of a typical school in the state of Texas, which is made up of 12.6% African-American students on average.

Now you do. 600 all black kids and some of them are recruited...Most would like to have 600 all black boys and chance to recruit some them to boot. FYI - that is more black boys than small 6A Cedar Hill has! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
