I know this guy personally myself because he was my coach he's tha most kind hearted down to earth person/coach I know still till this day on tha Field and outside tha lines he would give tha shirt off his back to anyone that's in need of help iv seen him give up his big Mac meal to a student that wasn't eating and got himself another meal iv seen it with my own eyes this man loves football and kids y'all coaches need to quit crying about tha score this man's doing nothing but his job and what he loves and that's football if your coach and team and winning or running up tha score don't be mad maybe it's just cause y'alls teams ain't as passionate about football like everyone is in Refugio go hard or go home like coach herring would always say NO EXCUSES!!!!
This coach is doing what is right. my high school team won there district with scores like 56 -7 48 - 0 and all starters came out after the half and when it came playoff time we were not ready for a 4 quarter game.
Great coach!!! San Antonio SW could use a coach like him. The other coaches should stop crying and get their butts to coaching. Football was a sport invented to Humiliate your opponent.
The players are home grown!!! Refugio has been running the score high ever since i was in high school when Willie Mack Garza walked all over Texas like it was water!!! Nothing new all the same!!
Clarissa Abila I'm from near there in the RGV and I played high school football in the Valley in the late 90's and Refugio always had good teams and would always blow out there opponents!! The problem with today is our society is a bunch of pansies who are offended and butthurt by everything and use the tactics of bullying as an excuse!! Giving participation trophies is a joke and if you wanna beat the Bobcats of Refugio or keep the score close here's what you do!! Hit the weight room, watch game film and study there system both offense and defense, put some extra time in at practice and conditioning. If you work hard and don't turn the ball over and make plays you can compete against them
When we played Refugio in the area playoffs we held them to 21 points the score was 28 - 7 but their last touchdown came on a turnover deep in our own endzone with like 58 seconds left that year they averaged 49 pts a game in '08
You guys don't like him boy you would hate the legendary coach Lucky I played for Rockport Fulton High school Pirates and we played them preseason they beat us 14 to 8 but met them again in bidistrict they beat us again 14 to 12 they went on to win state championship 60 to nothing they have always been a great team and coaches, Rockport Fulton Pirate class of 1972-73.by the way the sports writers still ranked us Rockport Fulton the number 2 team in the State class 3A.
I didn't realize the game of football has a mercy rule? He coaches to win like every other great coach. What bothered me is the mentality of the Hebbronville coaches. A few years ago there was a different swagger about them, I know the coaches are different now. This isn't pee wee league football, this is readying kids for the next level if they so choose. If coaches are going to cry about losing, maybe they should look at themselves in the mirror and do more film study. LESS CRYING.
I agree with the coach. Canadian is the same way in the panhandle. Canadian vs Refugio tomorrow for the 2015 championship, I think Canadian will run the score up on Refugio just because they are that good. Is Canadian suppose to stop playing after halftime because they will be beating Refugio by 4 touch downs? Nope, that's the way of Texas small school football! Go Skyrockets
Im from Woodsboro a smaller town outside of refugio and my dad is the definsive coordonater one of our best football players named Ronny lucich left refugio to play for us and herring started saying to ronny that he wouldnt get any scholarships but he already got soo many scholarships from playing in woodsboro. But herring told him to get more scholarships to come to refugio because this next year refugio moved up a classification. So yes its true most of the players from refugio are recruited from other schools
every school deserves the chance to play to the best of their ability, and that includes Refugio. They really are entering the playoffs handicapped if they adhere to the rule of pulling starters after halftime. I see nothing wrong with what this coach is doing, after hearing his side of the story. Good luck Refugio on your quest for a state title!
I don't care i like his coaching style. It gives his players an edge. They rather give their best than have coach give them the business. It a life lesson you don't be great half way be great throughout. Those young men is going to take that lesson and applie it to life. Football is more than xs and os. Life lesson.
Way to go coach got your back. Just shows that your competition he's getting exposed for lack of coaching skills. Hurts their bottom line is supposed. Put out a better product or pull the product.
He is right. There is no known rule as to how many points a football team can score. What has all others opponents worried is the fact that no stadium no matter what size has a scoreboard that can show three digits as a score. I believe this little rinky dink town with it's football team scoring 90 plus could be the first. Go Bobcats and to the Coach you may want to consider having the pep squad or band members play just to pacify the sore opponents.
Damn, watching first half of video thought this guy is crazy, but demanding perfection at all times is the only way to success. We live in a society of participant awards and that just trying is fine. The man puts in back ups and still beats starters. Those losing need to look in the mirror and realize blaming others for your failures is the identity of being a loser, which is the culture that most now identify with.
I went to the state championship game last year that featured Refugio vs. Cisco. It was an evenly-matched game that Cisco had every chance to win. I had coaches like Herring in high school, and believe me, it doesn't make a "better" kid to be belittled and screamed at. And running up the score to prep your kids for the playoffs?? Those kind of coaches are reliving their childhood and are in it for themselves. Herring is definitely one of the more arrogant coaches I've ever seen.
haha and hebbronville would run up the score as well when they went undefeated their first year in 2a. and now they cry for somebody else running up the score
There are very good reasons why coaches don't run up the scores. Cisco could do the exact same thing as Refugio, but instead has class and doesn't. We have already seen a major consequence of what Refugio has done already: By Monday, three days after it was confirmed that Cisco would play Refugio for the finals, every head coach of EVERY team that Refugio has played this year had sent the head coach at Cisco film of every game. Obviously, Refugio is not very well liked. It'll bite'em in the ass.
Maybe if they studied film themselves they wouldn't get blown out like that. Its not the offenses job to keep the scoring down, it is the defenses job. If you suck then that is no ones fault but yours.
@ShivaLiszt The teams that Refugio had played against did not have the advantage to go against Refugio. It is not about running up the scores but how many touch downs can they make before the clock stops. What do you expect Refugio do to? Stand around and let them score on sympathy? This is football. They play to win and if you want it bad enough, you'll get it too.
Coach. Don't let anyone get to you. This is the problem that comes with all the sensitivity training that is taught in schools and the work place. I was a Bobcat many yrs ago. That was in the 70s We were still running up scores then. The other coaches that are crying about your method of coaching, shouldnot even be a coach. Life is not a give me,it's a fight all the way to the grave. It was coaches like you that made the person Iam today. Refugio football has never changed nor will it ever.
@Litlrox There's a huge huge difference in getting ready for finals and humiliting and degrading a bunch of kids in front of their parents and friends. You want to make those kids have some indurance? Fine, but have some more tact and make them do some of those 'death workouts' and they'll get the same endurance, without getting yourself put on everyone's blacklist.
Even if this kid wasnt "recruited", don you for one second think that Refugio hasnt done this before. In 1996 their starting offensive line averaged 6'6" and almost 300lbs. You tell me that a 2A high school is south Texas just HAPPENED to have guys that big without recruited.
love it! why take away the kids time to play just because they are out coached and out played? let them play till the last second ticks off the clock! great coaching!!
Ummmm... 99.999% of schools in this country leave their conference and schedule more talented teams when they find their current conference schedule to be so weak. So the question really is... are they stupid or do they really enjoy these blowouts despite what they say in this video?
ummmm FALSE... high schools don’t pick their conference/district affiliation. conferences/districts are determined by the state high school athletics associations (the governing body of all high school athletics) - teams are assigned to a particular conference/district based on location and student enrollment - you don’t want a 300 student high school competing in the same conference with a 3,000 student high school the state put refugio in a conference with other schools in the area who have similar student enrollment - and those fellow conference teams are your schedule, you don’t have the option to replace those games on your schedule
@TheLira70 I know. So what's the problem? That is just how it is. My point to someone else was that Refugio is not the only school who ran up the scores too. But they made a real big deal out of it.
@Litlrox Another thing, you do realize that Refugio gave the other team 2 points just so they do not lose 6-8 points because that was how close it was for the other team to score. That is the only reason why Cisco lost to 1 point. Think about that.
hmmm interesting team indeed, this reminds me of a team from Kenton, Ohio mostly because of a lot of game going past 50 points..it would be a game to watch to see those power houses play eachother
as a Hispanic man I will say this the coaches whining are hispanic, and it is this weak mind set that holds my Hispanic people back, this Refugio coach is doing his job and I am jealous my hometown doesn't play like this, you cannot cradle these boys. you be need to bring that "A " game
When you hear his reasoning I get it. He’s trying to win a state title his first 4 yrs he’d take his starters out at half time and they’d get into the playoffs and get beat because the guys weren’t in shape to play 4 quarters, he decides to play the starters 3 quarters they win state champs now but the opponent gets butt hurt! His opponents need to get better. He is doing what it takes to win championships not his fault his opponents suck
If you don't like the other team scoring then work harder to get better. You look at the teams that's on the losing side and you see kids not playing with energy and not tackling so maybe they need new coaches to teach them better. I would rather lose big than have the other team take a knee every play.
@ShivaLiszt First of all I know all about another team scoring huge against a small team and that is just the way it is. I recall playing basketball with a bunch of girls and we were up against a team that were much bigger in height and had the speed. Our team were very small in height and did not have the speed. That team scored 88 to 3. Sure it was pretty embarrassing but we did not have a chance against that team only because they had the advantage.
They have always won in a storied history in South Texas . The object is to win by 1 or whatever . .What does anyone expect for them to lay low and the loser feel lower .
I know right. Its ironic that they complain about a lack of sportsmanship and then go on to display a worse lack of sportsmanship. If you don't want to get blown out, play some damn defense.
South Texas football is horrible Refugio is just located in the right place to win. If they play teams two hours to the north instead of 2 hours to the south they will lose
Cisco looked really good. Refugio never really got any offensive rhythm going like they normally do. Great season though. They have nothing to be ashamed of.
That Sonora team was mediocre at best. They had no running game, no speed, a stagnant passing game and were overmatched from the start. If anyone else should have made it it would have been Lexington, who was fresh off a state finals loss the year before and brought back the entire team.
They said is the boiis playin not the coach and clearly the boiis be making plays they enjoying themselves not the coach all Cossack does is call the plays not make the plays
Why is everyone complaining about refugio geting recruites?the only reason that there recruites do come to play is that refugio has been so close in the pased
@whowuzthat35 Not when you have all those 4A Transfers yea the town has 2000+ but they still have as many boys trying out for football as Vic East or Calallen??? Come on man... And now the coach wants to move down??? Please... No Class...
You obviously don't know how the classifications work in highschool football. The coach doesn't decide what class they are in. Its determined by the UIL based on enrollments in the entire school. So the teams they play are close as far as size of school. You must of played or coach losing teams.
@Darkside2890 but thats gilmer. Gilmers coach always knew how to beat daingerfield but when daingerfield had all that talent, couldnt nobody in 2a touch them boys AND only SOME of the elite teams in 3a could such as a Gilmer, or a Carthage.
@RedRooster your predictions are very accurate!!!!!NOT! Congrats to the coaching staff and players! Only our town and players truly believed! 2011 State Champs!
hahaha, who cares who runs up the score, if people don't like the score to be run then have a maximum point cut off, coaches need to stop being babies and take a whooping when it happens. football is football. who cares what the score is.
stop whining! i understand football etiquette but grow some sacs. Maybe they wouldn't lose so bad if they focused on coaching. Not to mention they usually don't even win the ship so clearly other teams are doing it to. Coach come coach at GHS.
That was 1995 when we lost in the Semi's. The only lineman not from there was center Will McKinney whose dad was the DC. Outside of him that entire line was born and bred in Refugio. Schlaback, Elizalde, Sullivan, Moscorro, Firova. I should know, I grew up with all of them- and arguably our best team to not win it all.
Easy fix: Start using the 45 point rule, like they use in Six Man. If ahead by 45 points after halftime, the game is over. Gives the kids an incentive to play hard, so they can go party earlier, and stops the sportsmanship issue dead in its tracks. Its been used for decades in Six Man with no issues.
It sounds nice, but the whole point here is that while Refugio is trouncing its competition, it faces tougher competition in the playoffs, which means that they need their starting unit in the game longer. Unfortunately, when you have spent the whole season playing 2 quarters of ball, your player's conditioning will not be there for a full game. That is why they had been losing in the championship games. The other team had been playing 4 quarters and were physically able to go the distance, while Refugio players were used to playing half that per game.
If you don't like him, beat him.
My hometown Refugio Texas, in my eyes Refugio will always be #1 They have a great coach that will push them to be the best.
When I came to this video I thought I'd hate this guy. After watching it though, I love him. Great coach.
Yep
I know this guy personally myself because he was my coach he's tha most kind hearted down to earth person/coach I know still till this day on tha Field and outside tha lines he would give tha shirt off his back to anyone that's in need of help iv seen him give up his big Mac meal to a student that wasn't eating and got himself another meal iv seen it with my own eyes this man loves football and kids y'all coaches need to quit crying about tha score this man's doing nothing but his job and what he loves and that's football if your coach and team and winning or running up tha score don't be mad maybe it's just cause y'alls teams ain't as passionate about football like everyone is in Refugio go hard or go home like coach herring would always say
NO EXCUSES!!!!
Since jason herring changed his coaching style, refugio has made 6 state title games and has won 3 of them
This coach is doing what is right. my high school team won there district with scores like 56 -7 48 - 0 and all starters came out after the half and when it came playoff time we were not ready for a 4 quarter game.
Not the coach's fault the other team can't stop his team
bravo23 delta please oh wise one explain to us idiot mortals how this coach is bad.
Exactly
He's real as fuck. Great coach!! Love his stile of play
It's spelled "style"
I like this guy. RUN THE SCORE. It's football try to stop us, if you can't we are gonna keep scoring
bravo23 delta And your a pussy... Hope you don’t reproduce
bravo23 delta you clearly love to call people idiots but you never actually explain ANYTHING. Your clearly just offended and are trying to act smart
I lived in Refugio as a kid, and it's true what they say about being able to smell football in the air.
Refugio needs to do something about Shinner: the next rival.
Great coach!!! San Antonio SW could use a coach like him. The other coaches should stop crying and get their butts to coaching. Football was a sport invented to Humiliate your opponent.
The players are home grown!!! Refugio has been running the score high ever since i was in high school when Willie Mack Garza walked all over Texas like it was water!!! Nothing new all the same!!
OUTSTANDING & UNSTOPPABLE Football City for Life
Clarissa Abila I'm from near there in the RGV and I played high school football in the Valley in the late 90's and Refugio always had good teams and would always blow out there opponents!! The problem with today is our society is a bunch of pansies who are offended and butthurt by everything and use the tactics of bullying as an excuse!! Giving participation trophies is a joke and if you wanna beat the Bobcats of Refugio or keep the score close here's what you do!! Hit the weight room, watch game film and study there system both offense and defense, put some extra time in at practice and conditioning. If you work hard and don't turn the ball over and make plays you can compete against them
Armando Suarez am from refugio its no city
Then play teams 2 hours to the north instead of 2 hours to the south. Lol it’ll be way different 😂
Alabama does the same thing when that had nick Saban
When we played Refugio in the area playoffs we held them to 21 points the score was 28 - 7 but their last touchdown came on a turnover deep in our own endzone with like 58 seconds left that year they averaged 49 pts a game in '08
Refugio is the best team in 2A texas no question anout it.
You guys don't like him boy you would hate the legendary coach Lucky I played for Rockport Fulton High school Pirates and we played them preseason they beat us 14 to 8 but met them again in bidistrict they beat us again 14 to 12 they went on to win state championship 60 to nothing they have always been a great team and coaches, Rockport Fulton Pirate class of 1972-73.by the way the sports writers still ranked us Rockport Fulton the number 2 team in the State class 3A.

He is a GREAT COACH
bravo23 delta if he’s an idiot how did he create a monstrously dominant team? Your just salty
I agree with the coach. Canadian is the same way in the panhandle.

Is Canadian suppose to stop playing after halftime because they will be beating Refugio by 4 touch downs? Nope, that's the way of Texas small school football! Go Skyrockets
Lukas Wilbur i forgot who won but i thought it was my bobcats
Ov3RKill33 \ Canadian won 61-20
Lukas Wilbur when West Texas plays teams across the state, I expect West Texas to kick ass.
Im from Woodsboro a smaller town outside of refugio and my dad is the definsive coordonater one of our best football players named Ronny lucich left refugio to play for us and herring started saying to ronny that he wouldnt get any scholarships but he already got soo many scholarships from playing in woodsboro. But herring told him to get more scholarships to come to refugio because this next year refugio moved up a classification. So yes its true most of the players from refugio are recruited from other schools
Woodsboro is full of hicks and they've never beaten Refugio
Most of the people who founded Refugio were from a small village called Ballygarrett in Wexford, Ireland. They went there in 1831.
He IS going conservative by putting his bench in and running the ball. You don't want the blowout to get worse, then stop them.
It’s a sport if you don’t like him scoring on you than stop him
every school deserves the chance to play to the best of their ability, and that includes Refugio. They really are entering the playoffs handicapped if they adhere to the rule of pulling starters after halftime. I see nothing wrong with what this coach is doing, after hearing his side of the story. Good luck Refugio on your quest for a state title!
He's a great coach if you ask me.
Yuh he is I live in refugio tx Im a freshman coach herring is the best coach a kid could ask for
I don't care i like his coaching style. It gives his players an edge. They rather give their best than have coach give them the business. It a life lesson you don't be great half way be great throughout. Those young men is going to take that lesson and applie it to life. Football is more than xs and os. Life lesson.
I would say move them up to Division 3 but I think that may not be possible.
Way to go coach got your back. Just shows that your competition he's getting exposed for lack of coaching skills. Hurts their bottom line is supposed. Put out a better product or pull the product.
He is right. There is no known rule as to how many points a football team can score. What has all others opponents worried is the fact that no stadium no matter what size has a scoreboard that can show three digits as a score. I believe this little rinky dink town with it's football team scoring 90 plus could be the first. Go Bobcats and to the Coach you may want to consider having the pep squad or band members play just to pacify the sore opponents.
Damn, watching first half of video thought this guy is crazy, but demanding perfection at all times is the only way to success. We live in a society of participant awards and that just trying is fine. The man puts in back ups and still beats starters. Those losing need to look in the mirror and realize blaming others for your failures is the identity of being a loser, which is the culture that most now identify with.
They are in the worst district known to man. The UIL should really move them north. Not there fault their district is awful, and I mean awful
We beat Refugio at home this last year...
They will get beat by Canadian!
I went to the state championship game last year that featured Refugio vs. Cisco. It was an evenly-matched game that Cisco had every chance to win.

@Litlrox There's a huge huge difference in getting ready for finals and humiliting and degrading a bunch of kids in front of their parents and friends. You want to make those kids have some indurance? Fine, but have some more tact and make them do some of those 'death workouts' and they'll get the same endurance, without getting yourself put on everyone's blacklist.
Even if this kid wasnt "recruited", don you for one second think that Refugio hasnt done this before. In 1996 their starting offensive line averaged 6'6" and almost 300lbs. You tell me that a 2A high school is south Texas just HAPPENED to have guys that big without recruited.
love it! why take away the kids time to play just because they are out coached and out played? let them play till the last second ticks off the clock! great coaching!!
If you don’t want him running up the score play better defense
I remember that i played against him when he was at weimer, i am a current football player at shiner high
Max Huth lol feel old?
Ummmm... 99.999% of schools in this country leave their conference and schedule more talented teams when they find their current conference schedule to be so weak. So the question really is... are they stupid or do they really enjoy these blowouts despite what they say in this video?
ummmm FALSE... high schools don’t pick their conference/district affiliation. conferences/districts are determined by the state high school athletics associations (the governing body of all high school athletics) - teams are assigned to a particular conference/district based on location and student enrollment - you don’t want a 300 student high school competing in the same conference with a 3,000 student high school
the state put refugio in a conference with other schools in the area who have similar student enrollment - and those fellow conference teams are your schedule, you don’t have the option to replace those games on your schedule
The quarterback passed for almost 4,000 yards... Passing yard average of 260 yards per game and 150 rushing. We would have smacked lexington.
Scary thing is, they dropped down a classification this year....yikes!
Classifications are representations of size, not ability.
they are still 2A. they Just won state title again.. 2019.
@TheLira70 I know. So what's the problem? That is just how it is. My point to someone else was that Refugio is not the only school who ran up the scores too. But they made a real big deal out of it.
They took a Rhodesian ass whoopin from east bernard last night. 54-23. All those points in regular season didnt really amount to shit in playoffs
@dumpsterbaby They play some garbage ass teams in their district I would hope and expect them to win...
The one award he’s never won but should have is recruiter of the year.
They don't recruit
92-6?!?
is this high school football or elementary football?
Tomorrow they scrimmage aransas pass high school just dropped down to a 2a this year
@Litlrox Another thing, you do realize that Refugio gave the other team 2 points just so they do not lose 6-8 points because that was how close it was for the other team to score. That is the only reason why Cisco lost to 1 point. Think about that.
Best team they played all year was the sonora broncos. Look up the game. If anyone was Getting to dallas from their region it was refugio or sonora.
refugio is not a rich town and many of the kids do not even go to college. way to focus on sports not near enough on education
hmmm interesting team indeed, this reminds me of a team from Kenton, Ohio mostly because of a lot of game going past 50 points..it would be a game to watch to see those power houses play eachother
as a Hispanic man I will say this the coaches whining are hispanic, and it is this weak mind set that holds my Hispanic people back, this Refugio coach is doing his job and I am jealous my hometown doesn't play like this, you cannot cradle these boys. you be need to bring that "A " game
Chris Cano Yup Hebbronville
When you hear his reasoning I get it. He’s trying to win a state title his first 4 yrs he’d take his starters out at half time and they’d get into the playoffs and get beat because the guys weren’t in shape to play 4 quarters, he decides to play the starters 3 quarters they win state champs now but the opponent gets butt hurt!

I would rather lose big than have the other team take a knee every play.
Everyone eats on that team! Too bad for the opposition
Do all of that and you can't win the state championship. Its saying something about his competition. Coach Gray did that for years and got run off.
These other coaches should stop crying. Sorry, in sports you don't get a participation trophy. Man up.
@ShivaLiszt First of all I know all about another team scoring huge against a small team and that is just the way it is.

They have always won in a storied history in South Texas . The object is to win by 1 or whatever . .What does anyone expect for them to lay low and the loser feel lower .
Hebronville Head Coach Billy Crystal
@TheRedRooster13 Actually, it is bad sportsmanship for not shaking hands with the coach. What sore losers. (shakes head).
I know right. Its ironic that they complain about a lack of sportsmanship and then go on to display a worse lack of sportsmanship. If you don't want to get blown out, play some damn defense.
South Texas football is horrible Refugio is just located in the right place to win. If they play teams two hours to the north instead of 2 hours to the south they will lose
Fear Me Just won State bitch😂
the defenses playing them are trash anyway. so Refugio do what you do!
@ jayangel7.....That's exactly what I'm saying. Winning is the name of the game after all.
people cant get mad cause Refugio owned everyone they played
Coach Garza is soft and that trickles down to your team.
Foreal... I would never let my kids get coached by someone like that
Losing coaches. If you don't like it do better next time.
Wait till they play East Bernard this week. lol. They'll be lucky to score even 40
so what happened they beat them haha refugio is a great team I know they'll win state again
Gregory Hinojosa
LOL. & They scored EXACTLY 40. They still have to win these next two games but it's possible & likely they will barring any injuries
Hey they gonna win state maybe ha
Cisco looked really good. Refugio never really got any offensive rhythm going like they normally do. Great season though. They have nothing to be ashamed of.
That Sonora team was mediocre at best. They had no running game, no speed, a stagnant passing game and were overmatched from the start. If anyone else should have made it it would have been Lexington, who was fresh off a state finals loss the year before and brought back the entire team.
It's football suck it up
I live there

...and you waited two full seasons to be witty and boastful about 1 loss. You need to get a life sir. Thanks for the support.
Who needs to get a life?
They said is the boiis playin not the coach and clearly the boiis be making plays they enjoying themselves not the coach all Cossack does is call the plays not make the plays
I gotta give a shout out to coach Herring for beating Cisco.
always beat Cisco!!
Why is everyone complaining about refugio geting recruites?the only reason that there recruites do come to play is that refugio has been so close in the pased
@whowuzthat35 Not when you have all those 4A Transfers yea the town has 2000+ but they still have as many boys trying out for football as Vic East or Calallen??? Come on man... And now the coach wants to move down??? Please... No Class...
You obviously don't know how the classifications work in highschool football. The coach doesn't decide what class they are in. Its determined by the UIL based on enrollments in the entire school. So the teams they play are close as far as size of school. You must of played or coach losing teams.
@Darkside2890 but thats gilmer. Gilmers coach always knew how to beat daingerfield but when daingerfield had all that talent, couldnt nobody in 2a touch them boys AND only SOME of the elite teams in 3a could such as a Gilmer, or a Carthage.
haha, you from Kingsville bro?
@RedRooster your predictions are very accurate!!!!!NOT! Congrats to the coaching staff and players! Only our town and players truly believed! 2011 State Champs!
hahaha, who cares who runs up the score, if people don't like the score to be run then have a maximum point cut off, coaches need to stop being babies and take a whooping when it happens. football is football. who cares what the score is.
haha i played on that Blue Team the year before, the whole district sucks bro, except Refugio
@buckj31 East Texas football is where its at, and daingerfield did beat that ass when 2a was 1 division
i live in refugio just don't let us score
let me know how it goes bro
stop whining! i understand football etiquette but grow some sacs. Maybe they wouldn't lose so bad if they focused on coaching. Not to mention they usually don't even win the ship so clearly other teams are doing it to. Coach come coach at GHS.
That was 1995 when we lost in the Semi's. The only lineman not from there was center Will McKinney whose dad was the DC. Outside of him that entire line was born and bred in Refugio. Schlaback, Elizalde, Sullivan, Moscorro, Firova. I should know, I grew up with all of them- and arguably our best team to not win it all.
Easy fix: Start using the 45 point rule, like they use in Six Man. If ahead by 45 points after halftime, the game is over. Gives the kids an incentive to play hard, so they can go party earlier, and stops the sportsmanship issue dead in its tracks. Its been used for decades in Six Man with no issues.
It sounds nice, but the whole point here is that while Refugio is trouncing its competition, it faces tougher competition in the playoffs, which means that they need their starting unit in the game longer. Unfortunately, when you have spent the whole season playing 2 quarters of ball, your player's conditioning will not be there for a full game. That is why they had been losing in the championship games. The other team had been playing 4 quarters and were physically able to go the distance, while Refugio players were used to playing half that per game.
What a joke!! You have no class coach! I hope that the Cisco Loboes win State!! Go Loboes!!!
They dont play anybody.... Just sayin...
george west would beat them
We’ve beat yall multiple times
I can't wait to be on varsity! (:
