No sir those of us with real town pride don't want to be like Webb, I hate the recruiting they did understanding their are some legit move ins but there was also a lot of recruiting and I prefer to watch local talent earn the wins not have it recruited in. But to each theor own you can want what you want that's what makes America great
Ok here comes the blatant honesty that hurts feelings sometimes. ( I know it won't yours)
$100 talent
.10 head
Would have to take a loan to have discipline.
Pure waste of god given talent
They had just got to the red zone then had a kid wait on GV side of LOS for them to get out of huddle to keep talking shit from previous play they ate 15yds for that, then next play a kid got tackled was upset that the defender held onto him through the roll, got up and took a swing at the defender they rat another 15yds. Ends up being 3rd and 40 from the 50.

Here’s the other unspoken part. If we HS FB fans question the new coaching staff, don’t we know the kids, maybe shouldn’t, but they are as human as we are. Coach Rod was like EF Hutton (old folds will get that). New coach, not so much.
I am with Mr. Hat here. I get why others are giddy over watching them struggle, but I have nothing but respect for the run they have had. Every school that hates them wishes their school was like them. It is no doubt going to be an interesting story to follow.

Yeah I’ll admit it nixa deserves this hype this year.
I talked to a guy from nixa at half, he said most of what makes this team so brutal will be back next year but he’s not sure they will be anywhere close to this level after that.
I noticed the QB is a soph. He unloaded a pass that covered 60 yards in the air. A talent for sure! Three Jrs on the dominant Oline. Probably take the COC again next year.
Losses by pierce city and Forsyth knock out title-run06 and veer2Eternity. Those left are kaching, Tad Queasy, Oline Wins Games, Foot on the Gas, captain Mullet, MoWest Dad, the top hat, Revno, cardsfan200306, HBLPirates Fan 1990, MoSooner69, carthagefan, 12R1,
This is a nice post . Just my opinion, but history tells us dynasties run their course and come to an end. Back in the day, I remember it being Jeff City. Where have they been? Camdenton not as dominant as they once were. Joplin/Parkwood had a decent run. (And I’m talking public schools primarily). Any way, I’m thinking they have next year to rebound (quarter appearance min). If not, a 7 win or less season and it teeters on becoming the new norm.
It is my belief that there were games WC was not the best team on the field during their run, but they won, not because they thought they could, but because they knew they would. That played in their opponents minds too. It was an expected outcome. That is gone.
I keep telling spoiled "bandwagon" Chiefs fans here essentially the same thing. Yeah different level altogether but they are NOT going to win the SB every darned year!
I never doubted Webb would win a close game before this year. I was 100% certain they were going to score against Republic on that last drive last year.
Others are welcome to knock Webb and/or kick them when down. Hey I get it they've knocked the crap out of so many SWMO FB programs over the years................rivals etc. they have been such with my Alma Mater Kearney but I have nothing but pure, flat out respect for them and everything they've done for MO HSFB over the decades. Yeah I'm the sappy type who roots for all the kids but, my goodness, they are gonna recover and I cannot wait to see them do it!

I would say that is a fair assessment. WP cannot have many injuries or their season is over.
They don't play each other until the end of the regular season too. Will be interesting to see if that game means much in the district standings. Home field advantage could be on the line for districts. That is a pretty big deal. I could easily see this being a situation where one teams wins in the regular season and the other team takes the district game.
1. He sounds like Buckmaster. He was a great coach but some kids didn't want to play for him. A kid would either love him or hate him
2. WP and CJ will play in the district title game. WP has a better first string. I would say CJ has more depth. Only a few kids are playing both ways for CJ right now. The game may be decided by how many injuries WP has at that time.

I know that’s what a lot of people want to see but I think that’s unlikely. Will Webb football be what it was in the 2000-2010s almost no chance of that. Even with roderique I don’t think that would be the case. Not unless they can convince a few hundred kids who don’t play football to leave the school so they can drop a classification.
Two bad losses while abnormally short handed isn’t the end of everything. Now if losing these games becomes a trend we’re seeing when the field is covered with skilled experienced athletes that’s a different matter but it’s not where we’re at today.
Today they are just struggling and everyone is enjoying seeing Webb city be legit bad at football for the first time any of us can remember.
It’s been said many times before (probably even in this thread), but even JRod went 5-5 his second season.
However, one season like this is an aberration. Two and the coaching staff has some explaining to do.
Biggest concern has to be the weight room/conditioning. I get it - football is a violent sport and there will always be injuries. But the injuries these Webb teams endure every season for the last 5+ years are atypical. And severe. We’re not talking about turning an ankle or spraining a wrist. We’re talking about season ending knee injuries season after season.
People used to joke that Webb was putting something in the water to make their kids bigger and faster. Now the joke is the water is making them brittle.
Also, I think this is showing a little of the limitations of Coach Wyatt. He is a great X and Os coach and he is doing a good job with the Zizzers IMO. But he is also a guy who is going to rub some the wrong way and he is not going to get out some of the athletes on the fence about things. The result of this is going to be lower numbers. This is what separates Coach Ary from many coaches including Wyatt. He was great at X and Os and had the personality to get out and keep kids playing. Perkins had that personality as well, but struggled with more of the game and discipline stuff. Wyatt has been at schools where lower numbers were not a big issue and pretty much everyone played both sides of the ball. Now that he has moved up in class size that becomes a bigger issue. Will be interesting to see how he maneuvers in those waters. I think they have a good shot of winning their district still. But maybe tough to go much beyond that.

UNREAL a little piece of Pick Em I never anticipate using happened the SUPER BONUS/DEDUCTION which is for any game that spreads 60+. Not only did this happen but it was the NWCMO Game of the Week!
The reward for those who picked correctly is 5 pts. (2 for the bonus/deduction, 2 for the game of the week plus 1 for the super) with a deduction of 2 pts. for incorrect choices.
ANOTHER huge one was the 8-man Game of the Week which also went bonus/deduction ergo correct picks get 3 pts. with a single point deduction for incorrect ones.
NOW that we've cleared that up the Stats to the minute are done and Boogie_mane is gonna win easily with an incredible 28 pts. with this afternoon's game at University Academy to come.
Look for that game score to appear as known this afternoon then all the usual stats to come.......................
Hope springs eternal! Reality check. The teams Webb has lost to have been clobbered by a couple teams remaining on your schedule (Republic and Carthage). Small chance against Neosho or Joplin. I’ll give you Willar_.
This is what is shocking to me. Kickapoo didn't even belong on the same field as Republic last night. Republic could have scored 80 if they had wanted too. Webb will have to improve massively to just lose to Republic by 14.
Would tickle me to death if they would win out. None of the teams left on their schedule are much better than average football teams. When Webb was halfway healthy they had Nixa on their heals for two quarters and scored more on them than anyone so far.
I saw kids on defense last night standing on their heels waiting to get hit, time to start some different kids and find a group that wants to play

The win against Lebanon is very misleading. The yellow jackets drove up and down the field on the cardinal defense, but turned the ball over four or five times in that game.
Oh, and don’t look now but they are averaging 35.5 ppg scoring. By end of regular season that will likely be over 40.
I thought losing 9 starters from last year on offense would lower that?
I sure did at least early (which only really verified opening night when nobody knows what to expect) but yeah they are really settling into an offense that can control clock with an explosive Soph QB who is also settling in. Scary stuff for future opponents. Skipping Homecoming (pretty much always do) next week but will be over in GV Week 6.
I've been privately telling local friends etc. #6 has yet to really break loose welp last night ended that. Only very minor, fixable critiques would be the very high arc on a few of the QB's passes and the end zone fumbles (one called the other not). Come playoff time if they can stay healthy OMG OMG.
