I'll more than make up for not buying cookie dough. The boosters need to run an adult raffle, could make a bunch doing that. And I think they have a 501-3C so it'd be legal. I'd support that. 

Make it like the Boys (uh, Boys and Girls) Club party and I'm in. Nevermind, I have support everything. Even cookies. Then again, I hardly even have to feed or clothe my kid during football season so maybe I can afford a few cookies. Great support from the Boosters and the community.

I'm OK with the new uniforms, and I am an old guy....the kids are the ones playing, If that is what they want, then OK with me, especially if it gets more kids out for football......I'll buy some cookies.....All gray does fit with us since it is one of our colors.....

 

I would like to have some home games (maybe one a year) if possible in throwback uniforms (jerseys), like the 50s, 60s and the ones we used from 70 through 2011.  Of course that costs money and that is a big obstacle in OR.

The last part you mentioned would be awesome.

Boosters should probably run a reverse raffle for the uniforms, they can because they have the non profit status....cookies may not raise enough to get them for this season, and its for sure the school budget probably doesn't have any money for them in it.....

The average jersey runs $200 and pants run $100. Gonna take more than cookie sales.

Sad to announce that former Wildcat Rufus Shephard passed away tonight in a car crash. Rufus played on some of the 1st teams Coach Gaddis coached @ OR in 1988 and 1989. He was a tough, undersized Nose Guard. Him and Kenny Williams made a tough tandem. My prayers go out to his family whom I know, and to all of his kids. May God's grace give them the strength to deal in such a tragic time. Rest easy, Rufus.

    • Well nothing new, the Mustangs are really talented again this coming season!  They very well could go undefeated in regular season.  We shall see what happens in postseason.  I think the path to state title game is a little clearer than years past.  I think the Stangs are going to be really good and I think the traditional teams around in 2A are not going to be as strong.  It should be a fun season!
    • I would not put too much stock into the UH over Eagleville. From what I understand they were pretty banged up in that tourney. Catcher was out, they were throwing pretty deep in their bullpen and a few key players were beat up in their infield. Sounds like they are pretty healthy heading into the district tournament. Look at their schedule, they played some really good teams.
