We may never see another run like Outlaw had here again. He was truly a special football coach. I also think the dynamics have changed with the explosion of teams in the Metro Plex and GHA. Now I do think this season coming up they got a chance to have a really good season.

Coach Peevey left to go to Little Cypress-Mauriceville in 2021 and they hired an Alum to replace him and he's won 6 games in his 3 years at Westbrook and he got 5 of those wins in the first year lol. Lufkin has been down bad these last 3 years but it hasn't gotten that bad 😂. Westbrook is at rock bottom right now coming off an 0-10 season.

There has been complaints about them playing in 4A for a while. Last year I believe they lost to Carter but Carter also beat the 6A champ last season too. Lake Ridge and Silsbee both playing in state championship tournament were on Lufkin's schedule this year.

I agree. Barbers Hill and PAM will be really good games. The rest of district not so much.

Nothing like pounding on Monterrey Tech

Aug 30th - vs Longview TBA Sept 6th - vs Nacogdoches September 13th- TBD Sept 20th - @ Tyler Sept 27th - vs Barbers Hill Oct 4th - @ West Brook Oct 11th - Bye Week Oct 18th - vs Baytown Sterling Oct 25th - @ PAM Nov 1st - vs Beaumont United Nov 8th - @ Galveston Ball So from process of elimination. This looks like Lufkin's schedule. Longview Home/Away is kinda up in the air although it appears like it will be in Lufkin and still no Week 3 game.

Looks like it has to be on the road to PAM on the 25th. Already have 3 home district games and BH plays PAM on the 11th. Thanks this was definitely better than nothing.

Thanks. I just figured something would have leaked by now

That will definitely help to get Longview out the gate at home. Makes sense if you guys already have Ruston and SOC at Lobo. I'm not sure why we haven't released a schedule yet. We have to be having a difficult time finding a week 3. I just figured the district schedule has to be out somewhere

Still no word on Lufkin's Week 3 game. Has the district schedule even been released yet? And does anyone have the spring football dates?

Veterans get half off at catfish king Incase anyone was wondering lol so I'll take my 3 dollar gift card Chad 😂

Lufkin desperately needs PG play. The kid at Kingwood Park would have been our starting PG. They have some younger PGs that can play. Particularly the Burse kid that's a freshman. His brother is pretty good too that's a 10th grader. Don't think he plays PG. We also need a big man. Lufkin just doesn't have the size in the post. Losing Brandon Walker was huge. He is one of the best bigs we've had in a long time. They will be better next season for sure but until we have a legitimate big man we will never get past the regional tournament. Still a solid basketball program Coach Mac has built.

I don't think Westbrook or United will have much. I'm interested to see what Barbers Hill brings back.

It makes a whole lot of sense to send us south. I think the give away for me was Angleton appealing. They must have caught wind Lufkin was likely going to win the appeal.

Yeah Barbers Hill and PAM will be a good test. Galveston Ball has one of the best LB's in America. It's definitely an easier path overall but they will still have to beat some good teams in Region 3.

I just seen that they let Angleton out. So still needing a week 3.

Major shift in Lufkin football history. I don't think Lufkin has ever played in Region 3.

Lufkin has officially been placed in 9-5A

Lufkin and Crandall both have a common opponent in nationally ranked Millennium (#39) Millennium 77 Lufkin 55 Millennium 71 Crandall 47 Probably going to come down to the wire.

Round trip average 7-5A 352 miles 6 HR drive time Round trip average 9-5A 258 miles 4 HR 36 minute drive time. This shouldn't be hard for the UIL. I guess we will find out in the morning.

I'm convinced they didn't plug any numbers in and see how much easier it is for Lufkin to go south.

This would make so much more sense. Now I don't think they will do that much moving around but I do expect Lufkin to go 9-5A

20th or 21st
