I guess you are confused we never said we are unbeatable! Show me where that was said. We just knew CF wouldnt beat us !! Where is CF playing this week?
Lol, my bad. Guess I just took all the noise talk the wrong way. The way you guys were talking earlier I just couldn't help but to think that  ;D. And I told you that Texarkana would beat CF did I not? Just because I'm a CF fan doesn't mean I won't keep it real.

Hogman are you trying to flip the scrip? ;)

Texarkana will win this game. LRC is absolute garbage on defense and we know what wins this time of year. Justice Hill is good and the offense will be able to score some points, but I'm expecting a 48-40 kind of game. Txk runningbacks are the real deal

Can't call LRCA defense garbage and then say they'll score 40 on us lol. If we start fast I like our chances.

No doubt. It's all in good fun. Being honest when I heard Texarkana was dropping down to 5A I said oh sh*t we're in trouble lol.

I promise you LRC will not score 50 on our defense! LRC is pretty good on offense but have not seen speed like Texarkana has on defense! SPEED kills

I wouldn't promise - they are explosive on offense. The problem is that if they actually do score 50, I see Texarkana scoring 60+.

Eh. Both offenses are good and AHS has the better defense. LRCA gave up over 60 points a couple weeks ago to a team with a terrible record. Expect it to be a high scoring affair either way.

With all three starting linebackers out.  They are back Friday.  Texarkana's rbs will gash some runs and will move the ball.  But they have speed too and will hit you.

It will be an entertaining game without a doubt.  Go ahead and think this defense is garbage.

Rocket23

I think it is gonna be Naaman's then.  I use them sometimes for catering, and bbq is one of the few things my son and I agree on.

Hmm. I guess that could definitely make a difference. Didn't know that. Agree on everyone saying Naaman's. Best BBQ I've had maybe ever. Only KC BBQ comes close.

They wont score that many! Hard to score if they dont have the ball!! Hill the QB will get hit more than he has ever got hit in a game! Get the back up QB ready he might make a business decision!! Lol

You mean Arkansas High? I believe there are five or six high schools in Texarkana. 850-900 sounds about right, because they've been losing students to the other high schools in town. Especially Texas high and Pleasant Grove.

I think the new middle school will help with our enrollment numbers.  We were one of the largest 6A schools during the split in 2006 and over the last decade we've been on a downward trend losing students.  The numbers are still steady in the elementary schools but there's a big drop entering middle school and junior high.

This shouldn't even be a contest with LRCA having less than 420 students.

So PA and McClellan shouldn't be close lol You obviously don't understand the difference.

Rocket23

I think incogneto was being facetious.

Texarkana is 457
LRCA is 405
PA 310

Top 4A school is Mills at 497.

Although this has been discussed ad nauseam let's do a Readers Digest condensed explanation. Enrollment numbers are only a factor when specific boundaries (Public schools) are an issue. A school with open borders (Private schools) is not limited in classification. Public schools can field a team drawing from 450 students that live in the school's boundaries. Private schools can draw from 350 students that live anywhere. Although it is legal private schools have a massive advantage when it comes to sports.

Not quite anywhere:

Rule 1. DOMICILE
B. Nonpublic Schools
    2. After July 1 prior to entering the 7th grade, a student whose parents live outside a 25-mile radius of a nonpublic school must make a bona fide move within a 25-mile radius of the school that the student will attend to become eligible.

That is true, I took some liberties with my superlative. It is a 25 mile radius. But show me any public school in the United States, in a populated area, that has a boundary of 2000 square miles? When you factor that the population density of Pulaski County, 504 per sm, That's a big drawing area. Basically it's all of Pulaski County. How can schools like Blytheville, Wynne, Batesville, Morrilton, Harrison or the majority of 5A teams compete with that? Pulaski County has a potential drawing area of 395,000, Independence County has a drawing area of 37,000. Mathematically who has an easier chance of getting 70 great football players, The one with 395k or the one with 37k?

Do I look stupid to you? Last time I was there I was going to place a Pioneer sticker in the restroom. Two large men in silk track suits introduced themselves to me. I remember both their names ended in vowels, If you catch my drift. They said they were associates of Don Krebs and they highly recommended I don't do that. I ran back to the visitor side crying like a 9 year old girl.

While your mathematics are theoretically true, the reality is that that on LRCA's varsity roster, all live in West LR except for four. And those four, while they are personally great kids, they are not key players that were recruited (all have been here since elementary school).

So you're saying that, Hypothetically, If LRCA were a public school with the same boundaries as every other school every player on that roster, Save four, would still be on the team? No one on that roster lives closer to Hall, Central, Parkview, McClellan or Fair? You must also consider the collateral effect. A player that lives in let's say Hall's boundaries, And attends LRCA, not only strengthens LRCA but weakens Hall. If in fact every roster player would still be closest to LRCA than a public school then the argument is wrong. If they in fact cross boundaries then it is a clear advantage. It's funny to me that the PA posters acknowledge and admit that private schools do enjoy that advantage, LRCA posters deny it.

Easy there hot rod.  A poster doesn't equal posters.  If what one poster said were a consensus of a whole community I would think all of Batesville was filled with weak minded overly emotional men after reading your posts.  There is an advantage that's why LRCA and PA aren't playing in 3A.

Your supposition is based on a false premise. You think all the top athletes in central are being recruited or drawn to private schools. The reality is that most of the athletes in central Arkansas that go on to the next level come from the public schools, not the privates.

The real advantages of the private schools are culture, expectations and parental involvement/support, not recruiting and certainly not cherry picking from the public schools.

That is a very true statement. I think it's more due to sheer numbers though, Nationally 85% of high school students attend public schools. The other points you make I would agree with except for one question, Why do they put such emphasis on sports? Look at IVY league schools, They field teams but overall they suck. They are about academics first and foremost. They put their money where their mouth is, Or should we say they don't put their money. Do private schools cherry pick? Not really. You don't need to cherry pick to gain an advantage. A few good players from here or there can put you over the top. Two questions for you, You may not answer honestly because I'm so obnoxious, I get that, I'd hate me too. But ask yourself these 2 things, If LRCA decided to drop all sports and focus on the things you said would every player on the football stay? I seriously doubt it. The last one is more direct, How come athletes receive a higher level of financial aid then the general population of students? If there was zero recruiting than the numbers would be in lock step. Athletes get aid/scholarships at a much higher percentage than just student students. I get that Arkansas doesn't have the number of schools to do it but why do California, Texas, Ohio, Florida and other states separate public from private schools in divisions or for titles? They do it because they acknowledge private schools have a major advantage, It's not a level playing field.
