I honestly don't remember any conversation with you about a Silsbee player. I make predictions all the time. I get way more right than I do wrong. (check the football pickems this year). I don't lament on when I get some wrong but it seems you are always wanting to point those out to me. (never hear from you when I am right) I understand your emotional responses. It's your team. I get it. I think you have missed the point. All that's being said is nobody should be surprised when Tarkington loses to good teams. The makeup of their team limits them against good teams. The fact that #21 has to do so much is actually a detriment to the team when playing quality opponents. Tarkington really has no choice. That's all that's being said. It's why I think they will miss the playoffs. I just don't see them beating Livingston, HJ, HF and Huffman because of their limitations. Limitations that you have commented on in this thread. But keep on pointing out my misses if that makes you feel important. -

Passed away this morning at 78 influenced a number of coaches not just in the Houston area but Southeast Texas as well. Mike Johnston, the coach who started the Katy dynasty, passes away

Haha, this makes me laugh AAW. Just about a year ago I remember having a conversation about a silsbee player not being much of a factor and you got awful emotional about it. In fact I believe you said Wheatley was going to lose to Silsbee even after me telling you and all the other faithful that Sanders was the best basketball player I watched all year and he wasn’t going to let that team lose to them. All good don’t want anyone to say anything they can’t take back. Good luck to your teams except when they play the horns. -

I was actually enjoying the conversation. I was genuinely asking you if you saw other kids on that team that were going to make an impact to the game or that looked like they were willing to help. By no means is the kid perfect, trust me he has plenty of downfalls. Let’s just say he got an absolute earful last night about turnovers and taking some bad shots. If I came off as trying to say he was great, that was never my intention. As a matter of fact throughout my conversation I’ve said he’s always going to be the player he is and unfortunately the supporting cast struggles at times. Did I take offense to you saying he was the problem, sure! I was merely giving the reason I felt that you were wrong about that. Not because he’s great or he thinks he’s great or I think he’s great but because his teammates are not very skilled or not confident in themselves. Then that leaves him to take the pressure on his shoulders. Sometimes it works out for us and sometimes it doesn’t. Trust me he loves it when somebody else wants to bring the ball down or is willing to help run the offense. Heck talk to Ware or whoever your friend there is and you’ll find out quick, he loved having chase bring up the ball, they had to force him at times to bring it up. During the school season, Just once he’d love to stand in the corner and catch and shoot a shot but as you can tell, It doesn’t happen often. As HF coach is screaming “he doesn’t get it back” after everytime he passes it. Sorry if I came off, as that guy. Didn’t mean for it to be that way. Just having basketball conversation. -

Never mind. You’re so caught up in your emotions that you can’t even recognize when someone is giving your son his props. Instead of accepting that, you turn every comment into a back-and-forth, like a tennis match, just to keep driving your point home. And trust me — we understand the point. He’s great. He has no flaws. Everything that goes wrong is the team’s fault. If it weren’t for him, they’d be completely lost. Message received. Repeatedly. What could have been a simple acknowledgment has turned into a lecture, and honestly, it’s exhausting. Not everything needs to be defended, corrected, or escalated just to prove superiority. That said, I genuinely hope he and his team have a great season. No sarcasm there. God bless, and good night. -
It seems like he is upset that the people shot weren’t citizens heading to work. Oh my gosh, it’s horrible! The agents didn’t shoot innocent citizens! 🤣🤣🤣

I am not that emotional about it. (evidently you are) No hate here. Just call it like I see it. Several teams have put a beat down on my Tigers this year. Not surprised of that fact considering how down they are this year. I don't make assessments based on my home town team losing a game. I think I am a little more credible than that. -

Well if you know him like you say you do and he played for your boy then you know how much he is perfectly happy with taking on whatever role that is necessary to win. Unfortunately that role at Tarkington is the one where most kids prefer to stand and watch him and just shoot a three if he creates it for them. You say you were there. How many times did you see other kids handle the ball 1v1 and do something with it. I mean not absolutely panic and turn it over? How many shots did you see the other kids create on their own? They shot 25% on the night, he shot 50%. How many times when HF threw a triple team at him did you see other kids run up to take the ball and relieve pressure? -

Gotcha! Love that you’re excited about the thought of Tarkington not making the playoffs. You’ve only been wrong every year about it. I’m guessing the hate is because of the BTA that they put on your favorite school… like when he “took over” and scored 40 on them. Keep hating brother! 🤘🏼🤘🏼 -

I’m guessing #21 is your son based on how strongly you’re defending him — and that’s totally fine. Nobody said he was a bad player. The point is, it’s tough to win big when one guy dominates the ball. I actually know the kid well — he played for my guy this summer. So this isn’t shade, it’s just basketball. Talent needs structure, and winning takes more than one -

Never been a problem for me. Center is a majority black and white demographic. Vast majority of Hispanic students speak English. Where do you get your information?

Welcome to Carthage’s district.

Center is full of Mexicans. Not saying that is a bad thing. They still speak a lot of Mexican spanish.

Most PG's don't take over 60% of the shots. That's what I meant by "going thru". My and Mamba's point is when they face good teams who are able to control #21, then Tarkington is pretty much dead in the water and no one should be surprised when they lose games to good teams. Maybe I wasn't all that wrong when picking what teams were going to make the playoffs out of this district.😉 We will see. -
Alvarez is a proven winner at multiple stops....this is a great hire....absolute ball coach

Why?

He needs to learn spanish.

Interested in the games you’ve seen? He’s the PG, what position does the ball normally go through in your offense?
