  1. kenyon came later. but that 1991 team may be one of the most successful teams in the history of Texas basketball when it comes to success AFTER high school. the entire starting 5 from that team earned their doctorate degrees in their respective fields, and the overwhelming majority of the rest of team has been just as successful. What are the odds that a smalltown basketball team could churn out so much success. Dr. Jamey Harrison- former Bridge City Superintendent, current director of the UIL Dr. Shannon Holmes- former Hardin-Jefferson Superintendent, current director of ATPE Dr. Jeff Burke- retired as the Superintendent of Splendora Dr. Joel Nolte- former Asst. Superintendent of Huffman, currently works for the UIL Dr. Gene Isabell- successful orthopedic surgeon Dr. Tim Rowell- pastor, Flatonia Baptist Church Dr. Neil Laminack- Asst. Principal Grand Oaks High School Duane Joubert- over 600 wins as a head basketball coach, multiple state championships Clay Davis- over 300 wins as a head basketball coach, current asst. principal and Splendora MS David Underwood- business owner with over 100 employees Coach Charles Breithrupt- Texas High School Basketball Hall of Fame, Texas High School Coaches Hall of Honor, retired Director of the UIL Assistant Coach Todd Sutherland- closing in on 1000 career victories, multiple state titles

  3. There are 96 schools that made the state quarterfinals. 65 of those 96 schools have at least $60k average household incomes. I also comprised a list of all of the 6A/5A/4A schools in the state, along with their respective household income, and their regular season record for the 2025 football season. There are 166 schools that have an average household income of $60k or greater. 23.7% of those schools (40) had a winning record (6-4 or better). There are 84 schools in the group with an average household income of less than $60k. 12% of those schools (10) had a winning record (6-4 or better). I also went ahead and did a list of 3A schools.. just for fun. Of the schools that had an average household income of $53k (low class in Tx) or more, 77.4% of them had a winning record (6-4 or better). Of the schools that had an average income of less than $53k, 33.2% of them had a winning record (6-4 or better). So.. even though there are other factors and exceptions. 6A/5A/4A schools that have an average household income of $60k or more have two times the statistical likelihood of having a winning season. And 3AD1 schools with average household incomes of $53k or more have a 77% chance of a winning record, compare to a 33% chance of those that make less than $53k. Again.. I know there are other details involved. But.. I'm a numbers guy. And these numbers tell a story.

  9. Grew up in Cleveland and was a OL/LB. Believe he was there when Bubba Arledge was the HC and Celaya after. Went to the Army after HS. Was at Cleveland as a defensive coach. Then at Klein as a Off Coach/Spt Coor. At Willis for the last 4 years as Off Coach/Spt Coor. Know him personally. Hes one of the smarter football guys I know. Hard worker and very engaging. His players love him. He will get the most out of Tarkington anyone can. Has 3 boys. When I asked he said if things go well he would love to put roots down and stay. He has always talked about getting back to small school football to raise his boys.

    What proof would you like? To have solid proof it would likely give up sources and get people killed. To me, it does not sound too far fetched that a country who has been under observation by several administrations because we know they are trying to build a nuke, might, after 40 years of trying be very close to making one. I don’t like paying 90 bucks to fill up, but if it prevents, Iran from nuking an ally, that would eventually lead to boots on the ground for us, I’m OK with it. Lastly, if I really cared about gas prices, I would own a Honda and not the two trucks I have

  11. As do most things Democrats touch. Wonder how much Solyndra put in his pockets after he handed them millions, and six short months later they fold. And today, you have Pocahontas Warren to thank for an airline going under. I for one cannot stand a Democrat. You have to be some kind of special to vote for these types. Fetterman, the only logical Dem in Washington needs to come to the right side.

  19. I chose 60k and 53k respectively because the line between lower class and middle class in Texas is 53k.. according to a quick google search. I figured the average income should be slightly higher (on average) in suburban/urban areas. Which is why I chose 60k for the 6A/5A/4A marker. Was I wrong in thinking that? Use a different number if you want. Use 70k.. or 80k.. or 100k. Do you think the percentage of schools that have a successful football season will go up or down with the increase of that household income? That was rhetorical. Of the schools in a district/town with an average household income of 100k or more, 100% of them had a winning football season. Every. Single. One.

    Honest Question

    Politics again. Like perhaps impeaching and removing Trump, after he has left office? The Comey indictment in my opinion is dead on arrival. It’s not because of any interpretation of the message but because there’s no threat, even if it is interpreted in favor of the indictment. Saying that I wished something would happen is not the same as threatening it. Had the seashells be prefaced with: “I will…”, it would be a different story. Is it any different than the Kathy Griffin severed head? Had she posted: “I am going to…”, there would have been a different outcome. It’s silly in this current climate to point out one side and not another however.

    Not a MAGA person—or even a Trump voter—but, I assume they defend it the same way the Dems, Socialists, and Progressives defend applauding King Charles while attending ‘No Kings’ rallies.

  29. Will only speak for Silsbee here, but in my opinion, the 2016 - 2017 Tiger team is number one in SHS history. Think about it: they lost one of their best players, Devin McCain, and STILL went on to win state. Some may argue the mid 90s Silsbee team that was upset by Chapel Hill is the GOAT, but the bottom line is they didn't win anything.

    I didn't throw that out, the left wing CNN did...... Polls are not useless, were pretty accurate until Trump came along.....The personal attacks that Democrats do well against the right just made the right not speak.....screwed the polls right up You are no more of a gauge for blacks and minorities, than I am a gauge for white people...... I think everyone that voted Democrat is starting to question what Democrat policies has done for them.

    Dude. It’s not hard to gain support when you didn’t have any to start with. Statistics say whatever you want them to. Thats the delusional part of MAGA. The only reason Trump got elected is becuse the Dems hand-selected Kamala to be their candidate in 2024 when she was polling at 1% among democrats before she dropped out in 2020. There is no “MAGA Mandate” for anything. Mist people still hate Trump. They just hated Kamala more.
