Duncanville vs Cypress Creek State Championship


Recommended Posts


This is an exert from the Dallas News:

Deja Kelly may have been the only McDonald’s All-American on the court this year, but there’s a chance two players from Cypress Creek earn the honor next year.  The problem for Cypress Creek: only one of them was playing. Rori Harmon, the No. 20 recruit in the class of 2021, missed Friday’s three-point semifinal win over McKinney for a violation of team rules, according to head coach Jennifer Alexander. Harmon didn’t suit up for Saturday’s state championship, as well, limiting an offense that was led by fellow junior Kyndall Hunter, the 32nd-ranked player in the class of 2021. Hunter finished with a team-high 24 points.

I applaud Cypress Creek HC Jennifer Alexander for being able to suspend a player at this stage in the playoffs and possibly cost her team a state championship.

Harmon's mistake was a costly one.  But I too applaud the Coach for standing firm and showing that no one is bigger than the team.  Nice season Cy Creek, it was a wonderful game.

    • That there’s not a single thread on the fact that the Republican nominee is on trial for paying off a porn star with whom he had an affair while the future First Lady was carrying said nominee’s child.    I remember back when the dirty, no-good Dems sacked Gary Hart over something similar. Same thing with John Edwards and later Anthony Weiner.    But y’all keep pretending God is on your side, lol. 
    • I hear what you’re saying, BUT… that hammers the hell out of poor people and the ones with multiple properties don’t eat any more than the poor ones. In fact, you’d basically just be taxing a lot of peoples’ EBT payments. The government  can’t get ahead by taxing what they’re already borrowing to give to people.    I think well off people should pay more… but the scale as it exists is broken.    For the sake of argument, my mom’s house in Groves is valued at $125k. 2/1/1 on a slab.  Her tax bill is $850/year. Without exemptions, her bill would be 3200. It’s right on JCAD’s website. The problem is this…. If someone tries to rent out an identical house, they’d expect to get, what… $1200/month? If you take into account that homeowners/windstorm/flood is a minimum of another $2k per year, you’d need $5k a year just to cover the taxes and insurance. That’s four months (1/3 of the year) just to cover those costs, not counting a potential mortgage payment. But then everybody cries about how expensive rents are… you can’t tax the hell out of non-homestead property to make up for gifts given to homeowners in the form of big tax cuts. It just doesn’t work.    Ten acres in Lumberton? I’ve got a buddy with 10 acres in Lumberton on HWY 69. Prime property… it’s his retirement plan. Sale it one day and cash in. The CAD decided that it no longer qualifies for a special use valuation (timber) and stripped his “exemption.” His 2023 tax bill jumped from $25 to $22,000…. It’s insane.  
    • I’m curious what happened… they aren’t even in full pads yet. 
    • They’re going to have win almost all remaining games and get finals of tournament to think about an at-large. When LU was in the WAC, Grand Canyon got an at-large after New Mexico St came out of nowhere to win conference tournament. Grand Canyon had a dang good resume that year. It can happen, but resume wise isn’t in their favor.
