UnionGuy2017 182 Report Share Posted August 20, 2022 Do the generals have anything for the Bears? As a Union fan, if this gets out of hand quickly I think you leave your starters in for as long as possible. So much youth and inexperience, especially in the secondary.

I say leave the starters in until there is a comfortable lead. Let the youth get a little playing time, if possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weatherman 135 Report Share Posted August 20, 2022 Changing course here a little bit, but why did Lee and Thomas Walker travel to Wise to play a benefit game? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thomas walker had a horrible contractor that left the field unseeded after installing the new sprinklers. Lee high is in the process of painting their Track and did not want to ruin that. Pennington does not have working bathrooms. Basically a lot of things out of our power that came to a head. You really can't get anyone to work anywhere.

IRISH-FAN18 323 Report Share Posted August 21, 2022 Was the 6-6 score with TW with the starters in the whole game or did they get pulled because I actually thought Lee would win comfortably and then was surprised when I see it was a tie.

Starters for both got pulled in the 4th. Lee had a long score called back and dropped a wide open TD in the 2nd qtr. A ton of penalties for the generals too that need to be cleaned up if they want to be marginally close to Union this week. But Thomas walker is much improved than the last few years. #40 Spears is a stud for the Pioneers. I credit coach Hall for running a good offense too. Dude knows how to coach. Not a coincidence that Castlewood had their best season a few years ago when he was at the helm of the offense. Same for Lee last year.

1inStripes 932 Report Share Posted August 22, 2022 The folks in Ewing have been pretty excited about the current group of SRs and JRs since they were coming into the HS. Good collection of skill, speed and strength in that group. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
S10SQUAREBODY4LIFE 239 Report Share Posted August 23, 2022 Don't see it being close for any other reason than lee county tends to sale out for this one as usual. They play harder against union than anyone else on their schedule. 42-13 Union Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Union_Fan 2,155 Report Share Posted August 23, 2022 I definitely look for Lee to be better than last year. How much better remains to be seen. Union has plenty to work on this week. If they get all the blocking errors resolved, it won't be close. I won't be surprised if the Bears give up some long pass plays. Bears 35 Lee 14.

Jags52 346 Report Share Posted August 23, 2022 If unions secondary is as rough as I have heard on this board expect Coach Carroll to take full advantage of that with a wide open passing attack. It could end up being a shoot out if see can keep pace and Union stalls out self inflicted penalties or fumbles. If it is one one score game late in the 4th and Lee has the ball with a chance to win I would be very nervous as a Union fan.

generallyspeaking 39 Report Share Posted August 26, 2022 I think it will be closer than it has been in the last few years, within 2 scores. Lee could open up the pass game on Unions young secondary. I just don’t think Lee can stop the run so it may come down to who gets the ball last. Whoever controls the defensive and special teams will get the nudge. 35-21 or 42-28 Union says my brain but my bias says Generals 49-42 lol.

Union secondary just got younger too, lost a Sr. starter for a few weeks. At this points might as well start all freshmen in secondary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
