Only one I know for sure is Marquez Perez, going to Tulsa as a WR. I wonder how many offers he had/has. As I said earlier, he is one of the if not the fast high school football players I've ever seen.
I'm sure there are a few others with opportunities

There's a few offers from what I hear, but not necessarily top programs. I heard QB has an offer from Tulsa or something like that and a few others similar, but not connected to the families and don't know for sure.

IMO, the team is not dominated by a few elite athletes with prototypical size and measurables, but a pretty balanced set of players with elite across the board speed that play well as a team together.

That's different for example from PNG we played a few weeks back where the top athlete on the field was their QB (who has accepted a t.u. offer I believe) and the rest of the team wasn't at that level. That's been true of several of the playoff teams we've beaten that didn't have across the board talent.

My son is on the team and they are very well coached. They always seem to know what the other team is doing. They are a very balanced team. With that said several of their players have the skill set to excel in college given the chance.

Great game. Again. These kids try so hard.. They're so well coached. Most playoff games they have been physically smaller and arguably less "athletic" maybe, but scheme and execution overcome

Can't say enough and won't single out individual players. This is an incredibly talented TEAM, and I promise you that win lose or draw, right now the Aledo staff knows they are facing their toughest challenge of 2017

See y'all in the Big D

Earlier in the season on the 'area' thread, that was something we were commenting upon. When the QB was out for a brief period with an injury, the next fellow (I think that was eloc's son?) stepped right into the role and did quite well. That type of coordination between players and their coaches requires an understanding of expectations, abilities and desire. It doesn't always work that way (!) but when it does, it is memorable. Again, congratulations and good luck to the team.

BTW, at yesterday's game I noticed an older man sitting off to the side with a Westlake logo on his shirt and talked to him briefly. He said he waited around after their loss to see how we would do. He was very complimentary and expected us to do well. Was an interesting conversation with a knowledgeable early season competitor.

Hey, any chance you are the Alex that was the spotter at NRG?

After watching this team all year, other than Perez, seems like maybe Marquis Conchola, Jalen Campbell, Harrison Wellman and David Hahn may be able to play college ball somewhere.

Add Jeremiah Williams (LT) to that list. I know he's gotta couple offers right now

It's really good deal considering that it covers parking and I don't have to drive for six hours.

Load at 6:15, leave by 6:30.

The second game is at 3:00, so I would assume we will be back by 6:30.

The 2nd game is scheduled for 3pm.
They have a set amount of time scheduled in between games.. I think it's 45 minute... And they don't alter that time.

So if the 1st games goes long or into OT or something and runs till say 2:30 they are not going to rush to start the next game.

They play the game.. Have the trophy ceremony, clear the field then start the countdown clock to the next game.

Being the 1st game CS vs Aledo obviously won't be effected but very rarely does the schedule keep.
Often the last game of the day starts pretty late.
Last year the last game on Saturday was lake Travis vs The Woodlands and it was pushing 9pm before it started

Yes, Coach Huff has this program rolling right now. He is a really good HS football coach and has a really good team of assistant coaches. My son has loved playing for him. he showed me a video of coach Huff dancing in the locker room after the win over McCallum. On to Dallas. Go Cougars!

You think SAHMs have time to proofread.

CSHS state championship game to televised live

Okay, game day getting closer. Who is going to be the title holder this year? Post your predicted score and reasoning behind your choice. I am not gambling, offering 'poop slaps' or any of that crazy zoo stuff those fellas get up to. Just a chance to post your prediction on the outcome of one game at the end of one season.

Aledo Bearcats vs College Station Cougars

My pick : College Station to win, final score 42-21

This was a tough call, but I really believe they (CS) are the better, more complete team. CS can run, they can throw, they can defend. Aledo has a great ground game, and if the game was played in crappy weather outside, I would have made the score a lot closer. If Aledo falls behind, their ability to catch up will be hindered by the Cougar's excellent coverage. Those guys have been clutch all year. If CS falls behind, they have the receiving corps to catch up and Aledo will have trouble stopping them (although if I had to guess, CS will test out the Bearcat corners early to see how much of an advantage they have). CS has played D1 teams quite well and their numbers are high (since they are moving up next year) so their depth is also an advantage.
The intangible is the tricky one, but I still give the edge to CS. Both teams have the desire, but IMO the Cougars have that feeling of 'so close last year' still in their heads and it has been a long road to travel. Aledo is defending the title and that counts for something, but with the Cougar depth, skill, coaching, and desire, I am thinking the Bearcats will come up short. Good luck to all, safe travels to all, and get ready for 5A D1 play next year.

Edit-spelling fail

Aledo will be the first team they have played that has the size and discipline up front to somewhat contain Perez in the playoffs. Their secondary will be able to defend CS' receivers in single coverage, which is what a lot of people haven't been able to do consistently.

The reason CS should be worried is that their D is porous (and that's being nice). The only two teams that are really worth a darn they played in the playoffs were Marshall and Georgetown and they gave up 30+ And then another 40 to PNG. If it wasn't for Perez at QB this team would've been beat already.

Aledo will score that much without blinking and the difference here is the fact that Aledo can pound the ball and will do so consistently against CS. Look, they have a shot, they are there. I just don't see them beating Aledo, much less by 3 TD's. I think that's a little skewed for the "home team". You need to be thinking more the Temple / Consol score. IMO

Fair enough! So your thought would be more like 34-31?

I'm gonna say 42-28 Aledo. When I say the Temple / Consol score I mean that it's going to have to be that for CS to win. I think Aledo wins on the flip side bigger.

Aledo is soooooooooooo athletic and has the experience under the big lights.

That being said, CS peaked late and is very well coached. If they play a PERFECT game and catch Aledo on a bad day, maybe keep Aledo's offense working from behind the chains.......they have a legit chance to pull off what would be an upset.

I'm not sure that Aledo's secondary will be able to defend CS's receivers in single coverage. Campbell and Wellmann are a lot better than given credit for. We will see

I agree. Containing Marquez is the key for Aledo. If they do that it's going to be tough for the cougars. Doesn't Aledo have a state title 7 out of the past 10 years (or something like that)? They have every intangible in the book. It would be an upset if CSHS pulls it out.
