I do want to see Carroll improved, and a close game for Battle of the Bridge, but I want GP to win it... I don’t think this is their year. It took a bunch of three year starters to get them where they were. I want them to be better but it’s going to take a while

It took a bunch of three year starters to get them where they were. I want them to be better but it’s going to take a while I agree with you, especially given the loss of coaches they had as well. It's hard to build something up when you not only lose the kids, but the coaches also leave.

I want them to be better but it’s going to take a while I think they MAY take a step back this year until they can get some experience. But I also think this will be the team in CCISD that could be a yearly challenge for Vets and Miller. Ray will take their spot this season. and just maybe Carroll and Ray can have some really good battles in the not to distant future.

Scrimmaging Calallen and TM? Talk about 2 extremes... Get the crap beat out of your kids in 1st scrimmage by a disciplined team. Then have little to no discipline shown in 2nd scrimmage, and possibly get your kids seriously hurt by dirty play. I would have never scheduled TM, and as for Calallen, that's a scrimmage or game you take AFTER you improve the program. They would have been better off scrimmaging Beeville and Rockport if they wanted to scrimmage 4A schools. Otherwise find some 5A D2 schools that are in the same boat as a program and scrimmage them. That would help both teams and give the kids a measuring stick that's appropriate.

Not sure how far it dates because my son joined varsity last season and I didn’t follow the Tigers before then. TM was too actually. The entire schedule is the same. One thing stands out to me. There is only 1 game for us outside of CC this season. 👀

I knew they were the same from last season, but I'm pretty sure I said the same thing last season too...

Haven’t gotten names yet, but there’s 1 young receiver that has caught my eye. Guessing he’s a sophomore because he wasn’t on last year’s varsity. Great hands, great effort every rep…. Makes everything look smooth… and he’s a talker.

Man I hate trash talking players.... line up, do your job, let your skills do the talking, be humble, and celebrate with you team on the sideline after you win the game... No need for trash talking or showboating. Just do your job...

Intersquad scrimmage today… it’ll be a chance to see who is filling in at what positions (more or less).
