Denton ISD has Guyer in the 5A championship and Ryan in the 4A championship. Hopefully Coach McCarney and Coach Canales are contacting these schools. Blake Terry from Guyer recently had his offer pulled from Kentucky and is one heck of a linebacker.

Too bad we couldn't keep Guyer's QB home. That guy made a lot of people look slow. Had a pretty decent arm, too.

Speaking of high school playoffs. Did y'all see the QB for Mesquitte Poteet, i think his name is Nowell, supposedly break his leg in the second quarter against Aledo then return to lead MPHS back to the lead in the second half. When he got hurt they carried him off the field and a minute later they were placing an air cast on his left leg. There was nothing about it in the Startlegram Saturday morning. Obviously he didn't break his leg but I thought it was a huge gut check regardless.

Has one city ever had two schools win state the same year, but in different classifications?

I'm sure Dallas and Houston have done this on multiple occasions. Still pretty neat though considering the size of Denton compared to Dallas and Houston.

I saw the highlights on Fox Sports SW and they said he broke his tibia, but decided to come back and try to lead his team. I actually think it is broken.

I believe that's the non-weight bearing bone in the lower leg. Same thing Jack Younblood played with in three NFL playoff games in 1979. Hard to believe they would let a high school kid play with that injury. Maybe it's just a very small fracture.

Whoa!!!!!, his Tibia? I could see him breaking his Fibia and still being able to play but not his Tibia, which is the weight bearing bone in your lower leg? Damn, that is even more amazing. And they nearly beat Aledo.

That was the story team of the year. For a coach to come in and take a 0-10 team, 1-19 the two previous years combined, and go 12-3 and to the semi's in his first year.

Many years ago when 4A was the highest classification, Wichita Falls had all three teams make the playoffs. I don't remember how far they went. It was Hirschi, Rider and WFHS. They represented 2A, 3A, and 4A.

I graduated from Longview, the team Guyer beat. Guyer has lost two games in the last two years, both of them to Longview. I guess they finally got their revenge. Had to block a punt and score in the last minute to get it done. Congrats to them.

Tibia ... fibia ... tomato ... tomato .. :)

Tibia and fibula make up the lower leg with the tibia being the larger, weight bearing bone.

Guyer has two losses this year, one to Cedar Hill and one to Coppell. Last year they lost to Ryan and Longview.

I love to see kids play with heart!!! Like Riley did with his arm and the Poteet QB. FYI, McKinney High's QB (only a Soph) broke his right wrist on the 10th play of the game and his left wrist on the 16th against HP. He finished the game. Both wrist required surgery.

Total gut check by these kids.

The Mesquite QB reminded me of Byron Leftwhich getting carried by his teamates down the field in between plays his senior season. I was at that game, my brother was a RS Sophomore at Marshall, one of the most courageous athletic endeavors I've ever witnessed first hand.

is that a gut check thing or stupidity? these kids need to think about their future and their health, not trying to man-up and finish a game. i understand wanting to help their team win, but i don't think the coaches should allow kids with injuries like these to continue playing the in the game.

I have heard rumors of Guyer and Ryan high schools.

But I'd like to remind everyone that the original home team, The Denton Broncos made a first round appearance in the play-offs after a lengthly absence.

They were shown the door in the first round, but finally got some press in a town dominated by Ryan and Guyer football.

Go Broncos

A big +1 for you, Sir. GO BRONCOS! The Broncos have been screwed around royally by the DISD folks to the benefit of both Ryan and Guyer. It was great to see the Broncos have a little success this season on the gridiron in spite of DISD's gerrymandering ways. Ha!

      Auburn warns of potential ticket price hike ahead of revenue-sharing model

      There are probably 10 levels of donors and fans for a college athletic program. Anyone from a 70-year-alum always a supporter, to businessman only for advertising, to mom & dad only while son is going there, to corporate CEO wanting a name on a building, to t-shirt fans who just like the Flying Worm, etc. At P4 schools when the AD says they need cash, usually someone Big or a lot of smaller someones steps up. At our level I think it's more difficult to predict the donors and level of donations. I think it's also more difficult to find donors willing to give blindly to a non-specific NIL fund than to a specific building fund.

      Disappointed the game didn't allow us to see Mason, Cotton, and Vice.

      Two more home games before students are back, then hopefully the athletic department is going all out to try to compete with last year's record-breaking numbers.

      Auburn warns of potential ticket price hike ahead of revenue-sharing model

      In traditional professional football, when teams pay players and have a losing season, the teams still make $$$ and turn a profit. Thus they can afford to continue to pay players. In today’s college football, when boosters pay players NIL and the team has a losing season, the boosters lose money AND they don’t get to experience the joy of being associated with a winner. Will those boosters keep donating NIL? Do you have to find new boosters? Don’t you eventually run out of boosters? Just don’t see how this NIL model is sustainable. Rich people didn’t get rich by losing money and I don’t see how you can keep asking them to do that via NIL. The revenue sharing model WILL work and it will be interesting to see what percentage of revenue is ultimately allocated to labor. The NBA gives 51% of gross revenue to players. The other major professional leagues give less. But why would colleges give players anything close to that? College players are infinitely replaceable. People root for their school and as a consequence of that, root for the players competing for that school. But if the Top 100 players in college football disappeared overnight, would the popularity of the sport suffer at all? I don’t think it would. Offer the players minimum wage, make them sign binding contracts with buyouts and non-competes (assuming you can still enforce those: that is another rabbit hole). NIL will still exist but won’t be as big of a deal because of the contracts and buyouts. If a players thinks he is too good for this system, they can start their own football league or wait until they are eligible for the NFL. Why wouldn’t this work?

      I don’t know how much they care. It’s like monopoly money. Many of them are just borrowing from Uncle Sam and hoping they don’t have to pay it back.
