Worst officiating I’ve ever seen... 

Been a while since you seen Silsbee play basketball, huh 😒

 

22-4A put quite a hurting on 21-4A this playoff round. Only Huffman Hargrave managed to survive.

These days those schools don't have a chance unless they find a coach who knows how to hook it all up.   Houston smaller school basketball is mostly warm up for the playoffs time for Yates.  One exception could be Stafford.

Those schools are located in The Big City with a large population to choose from and 5A with Wiltrip & Sharpstown, 6A Heights

Driving home from Beaumont to get my popcorn and coke ready for these predictions on The Silsbee vs Yates Game

Safe travels.  Thanks for coming down. 
 

By the way, the Yates by 16 I can buy.  I haven’t been able to see the Lions this season and only really know 2 of your kids’ games for sure.  I would say Yates by 9 but that is a complete guess, other than looking at scores.  If the youngsters from Silsbee catch fire they can make it a game and maybe pull the upset.  If they cave to the relentless pressure, could get ugly.  -9 is just a hedge. 
 

After this year though, Yates is going to need to step up that recruiting game and bolster the lineup to keep up with the maturing Tigers.  Next year may be tricky with Mr Griggs having another year left.  But still plenty of talent to go around in H town.

That paradigm was broken 2 decades ago. Today you have AAU or off season ball, twitter, what's app, SC.  All the real players know which schools will get them seen by recruiters for the next level. Waltrip, Houston Heights are not those schools.  I grew up in the greater golden triangle but I've been in Houston, alas for a score and some good change.

Yes Sir, I second that. I have much respect for the HC and fans at Silsbee 

[Kountzer]

Yates beating Silsbee by 16 is possible. I hope it is not more.  I mean, JJ Watt is gone, Deshaun Watson is as good as gone, Springer took a big payday (and tax hit) in Toronto.   Ain't too much more the sports world can do to me.  Bring it.

Don’t fall prey with the final score from Yates, end of the first qtr Sat it was 31-11 then Coach Wise plays with the line up through out the game. It’s no secret Yates will pressure the ball and Chuks will guard the paint. I observed a few Tigers tonight breathing a little heavy, it will definitely be a track meet Thurs

Your prediction on the game Sir ??? 

[Kountzer]

It is hard to say. I've seen a little bit of Silsbee on stream.  I haven't seen Yates at all.  I have no idea who is on that team.   I am guessing Yates by 12 to 16.

[SportsJunkie32]

Turnovers will be the key to the game, team that cuts down on the turnovers will be in good sharp and Free Throws

After they went undefeated and # 1 and lost, to pine tree, all other 1st round loses pale in comparison.

2nd round. We had a 1st round by back then.

Again, Yates is a senior lead team, Silsbee is very very young.

Silsbee lost to Tyler Chapel Hill in 1998, not Pine Tree.

It was 2nd round.

I'm a big supporter of all kids in setx. I've seen HF play 4 times this year.and I think the coach gets a little out of control sometimes.he has to remember there are kids watching what he does.tonite was no different.i was at the BC game.sometimes cooler heads prevail.

[BADSANTA]

I was at the game in Lufkin then and the following year when we lost in Lufkin to Cleveland. Silsbee lost to Pine Tree in 1999 in Lufkin.

He prob should have gotten ejected tonight, can’t believe the refs didn’t toss him.

So ending dunk count 1-0?

Kids growing up. #1 will get even better the next few years. I like #33 for silsbee.kid will be even better the next few years.

[Tigers94]

Dunk count was 1 - 0.

Harris (#1) will be playing at the next level if he keeps working and getting better.

#33 for Silsbee needs to work on his jumping ability. He had any spring in his legs, a lot other teams would be in trouble.

They lost to some school in East Texas. Pine tree or something like that.

Like I said it was team from East Texas.  I followed that Silsbee team as closely as I could., I saw them play 2 or 3 games.  They defended that #1 & undefeated fiercely, maybe too much so.  The last part of the season you could feel their momentum start to slow down.  Perhaps that 1st round bye hurt more than it helped, IDK.  I mean, I can't tell you what they ate for lunch that day.  Circumstances considered, not too many followed that team as much as I did.
