THE GILMER BUCKEYES gathered in the middle of the field after their first scrimmage in Whitehouse on a mid-August Saturday morning to hear Coach Jeff Traylor mostly praise them for their performance. He had one complaint, though: not enough “big plays” on offense. He told them it was harder to call plays for long drives and that whenever anyone got the ball “in space,” he wanted that player to “take it to the house.” Thursday night in Tyler, in a 63-28 win over the Atlanta Rabbits that was not as close as the score indicates, the Buckeyes became “space travelers.” Read more: The Gilmer Mirror - After fast start in Tyler Buckeyes return home to face Tatum From the Longview News-Journal: Week One Capsules

The Gilmer Mirror - May the 'G' Force be with you

Joe Dodd, who has spent the past five seasons as the beat writer covering the Gilmer Buckeyes for The Gilmer Mirror, has informed us that he has “too much on his plate” in his professional life these days to continue in that role. It is impossible for a single person to replace Joe. So The Mirror will be relying on three people to try to fill in the gaps, so to speak, for him. Elwyn Henderson will cover the games, W.R. Greene will preview the games and Mary L. Kirby will continue to photograph the games and may also be called upon to contribute articles, as well, as she already has been doing during the off-season.
