I know HF jv stalled with more than 4 mins left in the first half last week at lumberton. 

A 45 sec shot clock would do wonders for HS basketball.   45 sec is PLENTY of time to control pace, yet still play basketball.  Nobody goes to a game to see a team sit at 1/2 court & hold the hall for 4 minutes or longer.   Play basketball.  Other states have already instituted the shot clock with great success, as well as youth academies overseas.  

Wrong thread Jabroni 

I ve seen a lot of basketball in my time as a player and a coach.   Bh and hj have some of the worst home cooking I ve ever seen. 
 

The loss to West Brook was a heart breaker. Missing those three shots under the basket in last few seconds of regulation was tough.

Jackson played very well. Earned that MVP honor.

I'm kidding.  I agree that coaches should coach however they like.  But coaches also need to know that if you yell at the kids, the scorer's table, the stands, the refs, etc, you probably don't get to coach at all for very long.

I don't understand why it's "changing the culture" when he's just bringing in kids from another community.  That's more like changing the personnel. 

I thought transferring schools for athletic purposes was illegal? 🤷‍♂️

I don’t think HF would have to be on Silsbee’s level. If they can just get close to the playoffs, that would be a massive step in the right direction.

How long is it gonna take to change the game? Silsbee wanting to know.  

2 starters (Bush and Martin)
5 reserves with only 2 of those that got significant minutes last year.

He coming back?  If so, Orangefield will be a force. 

Not sure why an “out of the area” coach would be more qualified than an “in the area” coach.” I think they will make a quality hire.  And congrats to Coach Abel.  Heck of a basketball coach

Interviews are today I think.  

Wrong. IF the kids are punished it will be because of a coaches decision about a rule. He is the one responsible for the team and knowing the rules. I'm sure there are different results for different rules broken according to UIL. It's a wait and see now. 

??? Gravy in what way???

So are certain baseball rules supposed to be taken serious & followed by Texas high school baseball coaches & others are not?  Does reporting a rule violation make a person, coach or school wrong for doing it? Is it better just to keep quiet & think its just a simple mistake because the coaches are dumb or it was no big effect on games?  Are certain coaches or teams off limits to question or report?  
Asking for a friend....

I have an idea..........Screw the rules. Just play back yard sandlot baseball and let the players call their own balls, strikes, outs. heck sounds some people even think its OK to have ghost runners! LOL  Rules are rules and as bad is it sounds/hearsay or whatever, punishments will take place and its unfortunate. I have no dog in this fight but I do have experience breaking the rules and a harsh punishment caused my team not to advance to the next level. Sounds like we will all know just how severe Tuesday. Tough on the kids and heck the coach may/may not even knew what happened. 

But nobody to throw to, or to open up a running lane. Does this kid have a name or can I find him listed on the baseball roster?

Don’t matter who turn them in.  Only matters if UIL policy was broken.  

I understand being frustrated but I don’t think going on a public forum is be way to handle it . Especially is they are doing a good job hard to get a coach fired if they find ways to win. But good luck to your team they need support not  negativity. I bet Beaumont United girls basketball team that was 35-0 thought they were a state bond team but they lost in then 2nd  round. You never know what happens in the playoff.Good luck to all our area playoff teams. 

Concerned or curious? Standard question really.  Good player, hey what grade he in?  Is he coming back next year?  I don’t understand all the secrecy.  Why wait until September?  What going on then? 

After talking to people from that district (which idk if its true ) that he already turned 19. Which means he would to old to play next year.  Can anybody clear this up for me
