TigerHat Posted September 23, 2019 Report Share Posted September 23, 2019 There is an important part of this which is being ignored by the people who have the money to fly their teams around the country. Why is the coach of the Hawaiian California team only concerned about why the GOOD Texas teams don't travel. Why does he assume that those Good Texas teams are like his team - with money and recruits and the ability to travel, but for some reason he doesn't understand, choose not to do so. Why does he ignore the fact that in general Texas teams don't travel? Usually the only Texas teams that play out of state are the Texas teams close enough to the border with another state that it is not a particular hardship on either school involved to play each other. It would be a very unusual event if a team from the greater Houston area were to play a team from the Midland-Odessa area. About the only way that happens is if both teams make the state championship game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here is a fact, Texas kids aren't all that thrilled about raising money to go to California or even Hawaii - they are a lot more concerned with being the best football players they can be, and winning the State Championship - which is where they put their work. It all depends on your goals I guess. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You want Texas teams to do things the way you want them to. I'm simply telling you why they do things the way they do them, and why they don't care about what you want them to do. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You ask a Texas kid say from Euless would he rather play any team in CA or SLC, Allen, Desoto, Katy, Duncanville, NS. LD Bell. Id bet to a kid they wd all say the Texas team. Do you think any other team in Texas thought Euless Trinity was this big bad monster because we beat DLS? Fuck no they didn't. Beating SLC was a bigger game and a better win for us that yr. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockinl Posted September 24, 2019 Report Share Posted September 24, 2019 Hahaha. Who cares what this big mouth prick thinks? A decent Texas 5A and 6A school will take in more money on one Friday night home game than his ass will in 4 or 5 games. Fuck him. He really knows where the Mecca of HS football is. He only wishes he was coaching at a Texas premiere program. For Christ sakes, he's just a high school football coach who has to recruit players. Fake team.

rockinl Posted September 24, 2019 Report Share Posted September 24, 2019 Ill put it to a vote next Longview booster club meeting... 1. "How many of you want to raise thousands of dollars so we can go play a California team that 95% of you have never heard of?" 2. "Or would you rather keep playing Texas state and regional teams, keep making $100k at home games, and strive for a state championship in the Mecca of HS football?" I can see the blank stares now.
