Wow!
Barbe is usually good. Impressive win.
Good win. Very tough non-district sked y'all have.
Listening to Byrd's radio broadcast, are they paid to pump LSU like that or they just do it volitionally?
Charlie pumps LSU, NWST, and ULL because their radio broadcasts are on Townsquare Media stations in the Shreveport market. Last season Tech got mentioned at the end of every broadcast for losing to NWST.Quote:

Charlie Cavell the main announcer, Christopher Eldredge, co-announcer (Byrd QB about 10-12 years ago) and their sideline reporter, Marty Johnson, all have attended or graduated from LSU. The radio station (AM 1130 with a web address of www.1130thetiger.com) has historically broadcast LSU games, several of the advertisers graduated from BR too and mention their college too.Quote:

I miss the good old days when Byrd had Dave Nitz calling games
Out of curiosity, who was the last football player from Byrd that signed with LSU?
Byrd defeats Longview 22-15 in a game that just ended. The battle on the border is neat, but midnight high school football is ridiculous
I'm not sure if there has been one since woodley. Jonathan Stewart played for A&M & arnaz battle for Notre Dame- not sure any other "P5" signees in my limited memoryQuote:

First you get a great buy-in sponsorship from Landers Auto.Quote:

Byrd, Calvary face off in marquee matchup

The Thursday night matchup between LSWA Class 5A No. 9 Byrd and LSWA Class 2A No. 3 Calvary has enough elements to make it one of the marquee games annually in Northwest Louisiana despite Yellow Jackets’ domination in the two previous meetings.
It’s not often programs of this caliber meet in a cross-class clash in the third week of the season. The 7 p.m. kickoff at Lee Hedges Stadium will be televised on Fox Sports New Orleans as the New Orleans Saints/LHSAA Game of the Week.
Great.
You've got your own thread
Byrd beats Calvary 49-21 (was 14-14 at half).
Whoa! still smarting from the state title game 2 years ago, eh. Get over it. Move on.Quote:

Aren't there threads for that? I think so.....
Nope! won't fly. I (and you) know better.
Doesn't change my opinion of Byrd. As I have posted many times I have nothing but respect and admiration for the Byrd football program, the school, and its loyal fan base.
No need for pettiness....
He didn't delete it. It was combined with the existing thread about Rummel (sp?). The bot does that to keep threads from getting cluttered.Quote:

Tough news for Byrd and Huntington football teams. LHSAA rules both teams ineligible for post-season play, appeal coming Wednesday
Tim Fletcher @FletcherShow 30m30 minutes agoShreveport, LA
This is the rule allegedly violated by Byrd, Huntington and Southwood: rule 9.3 http://cdn.lhsaa.org/uploads/handbook/Section_9-Ath_and_Inst98.pdf …
Quote:

The principal is directly responsible to the association for his/her school’sstrict compliance with these rules.

This rule shall be enforced throughout the entire school year
Tim Fletcher @FletcherShow 29m29 minutes agoShreveport, LA
schools have 24 hours after being notified of violations to file for appeal.
Tim Fletcher @FletcherShow 29m29 minutes agoShreveport, LA
The violations were self-reported by the schools according to my source
Roy Lang III @RoyLangIII 14m14 minutes ago
I'm guessing this is going to get really ugly. Byrd largest school in state. Clean reputation thus far. Not going to wave white flag easily

Would be strange coincidence for possibly three schools to suddenly self-report at same time.
I'm thinking a lot of schools don't want to open this can of worms.
@RoyLangIII: Schools can continue to participate in the regular season but are immediately ineligible for postseason pending appeal, more specific ruling
@KSLASports: According to Caddo Parish Public Schools statement, they WILL appeal #LHSAA "unprecedented ruling" & will make its case Wednesday.
C.E. Byrd High @CEByrdHigh 6m6 minutes ago
Looking foreword to a great game tomorrow night against Evangel and to an awesome postseason! #StingEm

Look for Byrd in the playoffs THIS football season... Appeal from Caddo schools worked

Byrd and Southwood fined $1,000 for violations. None for Huntington according to Caddo Parish official Keith Burton.

#LHSAA overturns ruling. No school is banned from post-season play. Byrd and Southwood will pay a fine of $1,000. Huntington owes nothing.

300 student and 9 sports in Caddo Parish were in question. #LHSAA

@RoyLangIII: Eddie Bonine of #LHSAA wants uniform time limits, but says this decision is "a great example of making sure we’re doing the right thing."
@RoyLangIII: Important to note: schedules of student-athletes in Caddo Parish have been adjusted to comply with the rule currently on the LHSAA books

Rowland: Keith Burton did a great job presenting Caddo School's appeal, Gerry and Suggs are so respected are around the state
TheTimFletcherShow @FletchWorldWide 1h1 hour ago
Rowland: this rule (9.3) was put on the books, targeting football factories in the mid 2000's. It was meant to keep teams out of the Dome
TheTimFletcherShow @FletchWorldWide 1h1 hour ago
Rowland: this rule was not meant for Byrd golf... It was aimed at Football Factories
TheTimFletcherShow @FletchWorldWide 1h1 hour ago
Rowland: the penalty is like trying to kill an ant with a machine gun.

Rowland: the vote to grant the appeal was 8-5 among executive committee members
@LukeTScribe: Byrd holds and that should do it. The Yellow Jackets just need to kneel to seal a 24-16 win and a share of the district crown. #TimesFNL
Evangel led 13-3 at halftime
@FletcherShow: LHSAA Playoff Matchups:
3. Byrd hosts 29. Fontainebleau
@LukeTScribe: Dream scenario for Shreveport/Bossier City is a Parkway-Byrd rematch in the Dome. Maybe not likely, but it could happen.
@LukeTScribe: How good is District 1-5A? Airline went 3-3 with a weak non-district schedule and still earned a home game in the 1st round of the playoffs.
@VoiceofByrd: @LandryWalkerHS beats @cebyrdathletics 47-41 tonight in Shreveport.
