How could you say Parkview has no talent, you are really bashing the kids and making it all about the coaches. They have great talent every year along with some kids that just work there buts off, I would say Dileo and Wilsion are pretty good, (talented)

great list!

Homer had a real good coach when Coach Franklin was at Haynesvile. I don't remember his name. That was a really good rivalry.

Neville was like Highland Park out here in Dallas is today back in the day. They used to bring in players from out of state by giving their dad's jobs with Brown & Root.

Vic Dalrymple

Going into the year, he had a win-loss record of 279-75, for a winning percentage of .788. I think he has 4 state titles in 6 or 7 trips to the Dome, I believe.

He's been offered a head coaching position by damn near every school in North La. and there's no telling how many Texas teams have recruited him. He's just so Oak Grove to the core that he can't leave.

FWIW I think public school coaches>>>Private school coaches...much easier to hold dynasties in private schools then the public school.
