Assistant Athletic Director-Communications at UHV. Award-winning SID/journalist. Amateur pit master, family cook off champ. Angelo State alum. Views are my own.
Can finally share this.
Extremely grateful for my colleagues in this conference & beyond, our AD, coaches and student-athletes who have helped me over the last year and a half, and, of course, my wife for tolerating my twisted passion.
It’s a damn great day to be a Jag!
Pleasanton, Jourdanton and Poteet are all playing each other for the first time in more than 5 decades this season. Today, their respective Mayors have put a friendly wager on the table for their schools. Losing mayors will have to wear the winning mayor’s jersey.

“Seniors, where you at? You laid the foundation.” Poteet HC Darby House shows love to his players one last time after a hard-fought loss against Wimberley.
#txhsfb
If y’all could, please keep Tomball HC and my former coach Kevin Flanigan in your thoughts and prayers. He is in the ER right now due to COVID, per his daughter.
I don’t normally get on here and praise the athletes I cover or say they should be at the next level. But Poteet’s Ernest Davila is an incredible runner to watch. Over 1,500 yards through eight games. The kid can flat out run the ball. I hope he finds a home at the next level.
TD Central on an absolutely bizarre play! San Angelo Central sophomore Malachi Brown fumbles the snap, composed himself and found Tyler Arispe in the end zone for the 14-yd TD. 2-pt conversion no good. Weatherford 14-12 Central 1:33 2Q.

Charlotte had around an inch of rain last night. They had to get a helicopter out to help dry the field in time for the game tonight.

Tomorrow will mark the first time in 15 years I’m not at a football field for the start of the football season. It’s weird as hell. But I’m still gonna have my same

To all my buddies coaching or covering football tomorrow, best of luck!

Poteet’s Noah Gonzales is the area champ in high jump. He jumped 6-1 to win the title. Schuchart of Jourdanton also qualified for the regional meet in the event.
@PE1909
It's rare to see a coach-QB duo in the high school ranks like the one for
@AngryOrangeFB
. Not often do you see a high school qb and offensive coordinator make each other look as good on the field as these two. Big things in store for the Bobcats in 2018.
If my coach isn’t emotional like
@coachjdjones
after a great season like Garden City had, I don’t want to play for them. Plain and simple. Looking forward to GC’s team next year.
Garden City (
@BearkatCity
) was the last team standing in the Permian Basin but fell short tonight in the state semifinals ending their season with a 13-1 record. Take a look at what
@coachjdjones
had to say moments after the game.

Today, we got back to a sense of normalcy in the high school ranks. Workouts may have looked different, but they didn’t feel different in the 100-degree South Texas weather.
@PE1909
I have kicked in front of thousands of people, Nick Saban and many other important people. None of that was more nerve-wracking than this, and I knew she was going to say yes.
Pleasanton is back at practice today following a 10-day shutdown for a positive coronavirus case. HC Stephen Liska said they only had the one case, who recovered, and the Eagles are now rapidly preparing for Hondo this Friday.

An update on Pleasanton’s JesseJohn Guel, the player carried off in a ambulance: HC Stephen Liska said Guel had feeling in and the ability to move all extremities. Still awaiting an official status update on Guel, but that’s very positive right now.

Poteet, thanks to losses by Carrizo Springs and Crystal City, will be 14-4A D2’s no. 3-seed. They were 0-10 a year ago and in the playoffs this year. What a job by
@CoachHouse03
and his staff.

AGGIES HOLD AGAIN! Giovani Maciel knocks down Gierat’s pass and Poteet hangs on thanks to their veteran defense. Poteet (8-2) has their best regular season since 2005, when they went 9-2.

I was ready to yell at
@CoachStav
when he decided to recognize me in public during the team’s ring ceremony today, but ultra-appreciative of him and coach Doug for valuing the work I do.
But please, let’s keep me as a behind-the-scenes guy. I have a face for radio lol.
Q1: Jourdanton 14, Cotulla 0
