ChimpGrip Posted July 4, 2020 Report Share Posted July 4, 2020 Anyone remember these teams? I certainly do. LT was among the best in Texas and DBP finished #1 in the nation (but would they have beaten STA - who know). Who would have won this game? Being an LT guy, I go LT. Also, was that the best DBP team ever? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Guru Posted July 5, 2020 Report Share Posted July 5, 2020 A ChumpGrip post that is all about Lake Travis? And highly overrates them? No. Way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe if you would actually make a post on here you would know the effort behind it but I guess you don't because then you would feel the responsibility to keep the discussion going and your lazy ass rather piggyback on someone else's work then actually put in work yourself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also beat some very good teams in Steele and Longview. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I stopped keeping up with the National HS FB scene years ago. Also, what’s the current state of the DBP program? Still fielding a dominant defense? Thought I remember seeing on here years ago that Toal retired. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I AM IRONMAN Posted July 5, 2020 Report Share Posted July 5, 2020 Toal is DC at BC. Bosco came back to the pack...parity in the BNU. Not nearly as good as the 06-12 teams ..still play pretty Damn good defense 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taojoe Posted July 5, 2020 Report Share Posted July 5, 2020 many DBP folks who were around at the start of the Toal era would say 2002 or 2003 were their best teames. Almost got to play DLS in 2003, a shame Bergen Catholic vetoed that matchup. 2011 was a better squad than 2009, even though they underachieved offensively. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah the 2011 team was good, remember watching the live stream of their game against Manatee. Defense was physical and disciplined. One of the best I’ve seen, only behind 2015 Katy. 2011 LT vs 2011 DBP would have been fun. LT had a very good defense and Baker Mayfield led the way on offense. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChimpGrip Posted July 5, 2020 Author Report Share Posted July 5, 2020 How about these matches (not to veer too far off the original match of the discussion) 2011 DBP vs 2015 Katy 2011 DBP vs 2008 St Thomas Aquinas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So how does dominating a bunch of scrubs prove that they could give any team in the country a solid game? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rockinl Posted July 7, 2020 Report Share Posted July 7, 2020 Saw both 08 and 09 LT when Longview played them. I'd take 08 LT over 09 LT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For a long time I believed 2008 LT was... 1. Best of all the LT teams 2. Best team in the state in 2008 (just my opinion - I know and am aware others see it differently) 3. The best 4A (now known as 5A) team ever. But sometimes I think 2016 LT was the best in program history. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think 2008 would’ve been the perfect time to see a Final between Allen and Lake Travis. Both were just starting their rise to becoming Texas powers.
