It's the DCs first year as a coordinator and he definitely doesn't have the vets kids he's had the last couple of years. I think TM is a solid 3rd place team behind calallen and Alice No offense but saying they're a solid 3rd in that district is like being 3rd in a 3 team district... when the other teams can't run a play against air without being sacked, fumbling, or getting hurt, it doesn't take much to be 3rd. If they were in a legit district where there is more than 2 teams able to run a play successfully, they'd be cellar dwellers still. I blame the previous admin and the community for allowing it to get this bad there. They could have been set up nicely back in 2004 with Davis, but instead they took Williams for less money and allowed the program to go to crap...

Well will see if DCTF Tepper was wrong picking Tuloso to finish second behind Calallen in district he mentioned Alice having a new coach may take some time to get rolling.

They were improved last year, but still have a long ways to go. Their defense will have to lead them. They will again benefit from a weak district. That new field does look sharp though. New turf and a positive attitude. youtu.be/sMLLg-oHkTU

Things are on the up and up for TM! I'm excited for them, and pretty stoked I get to see their new stadium in person at our (Carroll's) scrimmage next week.

One thing that I see in that video is they are still weak. There is absolutely no muscle tone in any of the players. Even the big men up front have scrawny arms and their legs have 0 definition of muscles. They are not working out like they should. In 3 years there should be a change in that aspect. Given they are still showing signs of being physically weak, that coach is not doing his job! Physical weakness is going to lead to mental weakness. I can only guesstimate that they'll be very undisciplined still. Mental and physical toughness have to go hand in hand. They are going to benefit from that crappy district again.
4-7, 5-6, or 6-5 just like last season. They could go 7-4 if they beat all the sorry district teams, but given they lost to Zapata last year, I'm not going to assume much. They'll beat Moody, King, West Oso, Kingsville maybe, LaFeria maybe, Hidalgo, and maybe Zapata.

28-0 vs that Moody team is a terrible sign... They are just slightly better than terrible... it was painful watching that game. An average/descent team beats Moody by 40, A good team would beat them by 70-80. Luckily the have King on the schedule cause they may just be worse than Moody. If West Oso or Ray play even average football, they'll beat TM. Enough with this coach, he should have already been canned!!! He's not improving them. He's enjoying putting lipstick on a pig with this bs weak district....

A win is a win for them. Any success they have is an improvement for them.

A win is a win for them. Any success they have is an improvement for them. Tx20, you're a GP fan correct? Let's use them as an example real quick. We know they are a very good team. They dominated the Cal game, and won rather impressively. If that same GP team was playing say Pharr Valley View and won the game 7-0 or 14-0, you would be glad they won, but very concerned for the GP team correct? Because they being a good team should have won by 50-70 points even with back ups in. This is the same thing here. I'm glad they won because Moody is that terrible, and had they lost, my goodness what that would mean for TM. I am very concerned because they struggled to move the ball on a defense that has more holes in it than Swiss cheese. They allowed Moody's offense to move the ball on them, and that offense was as bad as a 7th grade C team offense. As a coach, so many red flags and warning signs came glaringly into light. It's like some of the Alice folks mentioning that their offense needs work and they scored 55 points on a very bad King team. As bad as King looked, I think they will beat Moody. The product that TM and the coaching staff there is putting out is slightly better than terrible, and they will be beaten badly by average teams and quite possibly slightly worse than average teams.
