| Team Outlook |
| Crockett - Coach Ron Lynch, returns 17 letterman 6 offensive 4 defensive starters with 15 letterman lost from a (6-5) 3A Div. II Bi-district playoff team. |
| Diboll - Coach Finis Vanover (68-50-0) at Diboll and (104-96-0) Overall, Offense (Spread I), Defense (Split), returns 18 letterman 8 offensive 8 defensive starters with 16 letterman lost from a (8-4) 3A Div. II Area playoff team. Overall Strength (both offense and defense), Strengths on offense (running back, receiver, offensive line), Strengths on defense (cornerback, defensive back). Notes from the Coach: If our QB comes through and we can find a kicker, we may be outstanding. |
| Huntington - Coach Jeff Hayes, Offense (Veer), Defense (4-3), returns 20 letterman 5 offensive 10 defensive starters with 5 letterman lost from a (0-10) team. Overall Strength (defense), Strengths on offense (running back), Strengths on defense (linebacker). Notes from the Coach: This years group will be stronger and faster as a result of the time spent in the weight room and foot work drills. There will be eight returning starters on defense and four on offense. A new scheme will be put in on both sides of the ball. Our success depends on how well we grasp and execute the new schemes. |
| Palestine - Coach Glen Tunstall, returns 20 letterman 5 offensive 5 defensive starters with 25 letterman lost from a (9-2) 4A Div. II Bi-district playoff team. |
| Palestine Westwood - Coach Shane Jones (10-30-0) at Palestine Westwood and (10-30-0) Overall, returns 20 letterman 8 offensive 8 defensive starters with 9 letterman lost from a (0-10) team. |
| Rusk - Coach Wayne Mahaffey (28-27-0) at Rusk and (81-74-0) Overall, Offense (Shotgun Spread), Defense (4-3), returns 5 letterman 2 offensive 2 defensive starters with 22 letterman lost from a (8-3) 3A Div. II Bi-district playoff team. Overall Strength (offense), Strengths on offense (running back), Strengths on defense (defensive line). Notes from the Coach: Should be stronger on offense with the return of a skilled backfield. Linemen will be inexperienced, but will have better size that in the past 5 years. Defense will be young with several players having to go both ways. Offense will need to carry us while the defense matures |
