I'll say it like this... why is a chicano kid that plays for Galena Park Northshore more talented than chicano kids down here? I mean they're both chicanos. I'm not comparing a black player from Galena Park to a chicano kid from down here. So why? Why is a chicano kid that plays for Galena Park Northshore better than a chicano kid from down here??? Because YOU ARE A PRODUCT OF YOUR SURROUNDINGS. So surround your kids with that level talent by playing against it and yes they will take a beatdown this year but in the long run it's going to make that program better if you're consistent and keep playing beast programs. This is a factual common sense statement to anyone that is thinking about it fairly and not through the eyes of "i don't like Evans". I don't know where they will play. But I hope it's near a hospital. Miller will get some kids hurt playing this far above their weight class. I laughed when I first read your comment. I believe it will be a good experience on both sides. You never know what how you measure up till you measure up. Good for Miller. Wish more school would be do the same. Do the match up predictions on cal preps. Let’s see what they say for last year.

You don’t know the kids at Miller if you believe it will demoralize them. These are inner city kids and there is a saying amongst the kids of “We want the smoke”. They are not going to run from this they are going to bust there butts preparing for there moment. Many of them are being recruited and it’s an opportunity to perform against elite talent. We all know they will most likely lose however competing against Desoto is going to be a badge of honor or them. It’s hard to understand if you are not from the community or spend time around them. This approach may not be good for all schools but it’s definitely a positive for Miller. They do NOT get demoralized and I say this as someone who has spent a lot of time on their sidelines. Those Miller kids could lose a game and will still think they can win state the very next week. These people judging don't know.

San Benito scheduled Austin Westlake and Carthage. Oh yeah, it's easy if you really want it. Stop making excuses for local coaches not scheduling better. Even the Valley has been doing it for years.

i give props for miller for scheduling desoto. i really think desoto did their homework on miller and said sure y not. big time schools dont have to travel far to find good match ups. so pretty cool deal that he said yes to evans. i watched the poscast of South texas football unlimited and evans gave a good reponse of y he tries to get at least one big game a year.
Now on Alice: I feel like alice definitely got screwed but ill talke some travel for a better district games then the past 2 years. i also like the beginning of our non district opponents. i know carroll isnt the best but they r improved and a way better matchup the king of last year. i would of liked a game against an opponent from north of sa or a sa team before la joya but o well.
i hope the boys r training hard and focused. gonna need more depth this year and find some players and leaders.

Don’t sleep on Carroll. Yes even the 2024 version. Being game 1, not really sure what to expect. But I fully believe by the end of the season, Carroll will be a handful for any local team.

At the stadium tour now. Not much of a turn out. They did a Saturday tour for people that can’t make it out during the week cause of work. 10 minutes till a less than 10 people showed up.

Apparently Alice is going to the UIL to try and change districts. I doubt that, I don't think the CCISD schools don’t want any part of Alice in their district …. I know why they didn’t want Alice in their district back in the 2016-2018 UIL Realignment which became a disaster

You can't really fault or give credit to any coach about non district schedules. Scheduling La Joya doesn't exactly get me excited but there's only so much Castellano can do. The notion of scheduling teams from up north is great for conversation but does playing Desoto in week 2 really going to help you in week 11?? It's not like Desoto is going to open up the play book for non district. Agreed! I technically didn’t expect this turnout at all, we all know that coaches can do so much to get a competitive non district schedule. La Joya seriously doesn’t get me amazed at all

La Joya seriously doesn’t get me amazed at all In the interview I saw, Castellano fully expected to be in the CCISD/GP district… and therefore scheduled games accordingly. When Alice got dumped into the valley district, he was stuck trying to find another 3-4 games. All games were eaten up locally. But luckily (or strategically), he sent a coach to the valley district drop. Because that coach was there, Alice was able to pick up a game against La Joya. Had there been no Alice representative down south at that meeting…. The Yotes would have had a much more difficult time trying to fill that game… and may not have found a game until the absolute leftover of leftovers were available somewhere around the State.
