New basketball rules from the UIL as they slipped the info in as they announced the fall sport calendar.

  • No tournaments of any kind, including showcases
  • Teams can have two scrimmages, with no more than four teams can meet at one place for a scrimmage. Sites that are used to have more than four are not allowed.
  • There is no more regional tournament, the regional semifinals and regional final will go on as a normal playoff round

So AAU tournaments going on right now this summer in Texas that have 5-20 times the total number of teams of any tournaments that would happen during the high school basketball season is a reality, but 3 to 5 months from now it won't be possible to have something like the Orangefield Tournament? My head hurts, I need someone with that expanded knowledge base like "One Chance" to break it down for me.

AAU does not follow UIL guidelines, of course. Some are self-governed by their organizers and coaches. 

For UIL, there won't be any tournaments for anyone in the state. TAPPS is the only organization at the moment that can host and have teams participate. 

Scrimmages can also have no more than four teams at the same venue

(example: Team A, B, C & D have scrimmages at Lamar University. Team E wants in but can't participate because of this restriction.)

I hop that answered your question.

Naw Nick, I understand all the machinations involved with why things aren't going to happen, my comment was more of a rhetorical (salty) based opinion regarding the overall conditions of current times.

Have appreciated your coverage, hope you actually get to go to a gym this season. 

That's it for me, got to get back to hermetically sealed bunker.

      US Supreme Court case from southeast Texas

      By tvc184 · Posted

      From what I read, the state intended for there to be no drainage. It was to act as a dam or levee just like the hurricane levee around Port Arthur. It worked to perfection.  In doing so, the water had to pile up somewhere.  Like in Causby that I mentioned above, the Supreme Court ruled in that case that the federal government took his land by merely flying planes over it but low enough that the engine noise was disrupting.

      Exactly. Of course changing realignment to make matchups more fair helps, but fairness always helps, and that shouldn’t be a knock against PNG. But, they created the fixed divisions in what, 2018? How did PnG do in that setup before Joseph showed up? Elite coaching mixed with good players and good luck, and a level playing field, yeah that helps a lot. But for anyone trying to say PNG had it easy, why don’t the other 120-ish teams in 5aD2 do just as well?

      PNG: Life After State

      It’s not a land issue, it’s a demographic issue. The population in PN-GISD is getting younger. Old folks are dying off, and their homes are being bought by young families moving in with increasing frequency. Factor in that PN-GISD is more attractive than some of its neighbors right now thanks to the newer schools, the quality of education and the recent extracurricular success, and you have an easy explanation for the ~20% enrollment growth that’s occurred over the last ten years while the neighboring Jefferson County districts have all either flat-lined or shrunk. You also have an explanation for Groves posting the highest growth rate in the county and the third highest in the MSA on the 2020 census. We’re a lot closer to 5ADI numbers than people realize.
