Santa- It was very wrong for you to drop out of grade school just because it was illegal for you to be promoted past your dad.

[/quote] I can assure you AAA has not spoken to him.  And Woods [u]would contact [/u]Yates [/quote] How do you know AAA has not spoken with him?  Sounds like you are part of their player acquisition department.  As for contacting Yates, that might happen after he receives a call from Akeem.

Just wonder why they didn't name him Eight Wonder instead of Seventh Woods

I wonder if Yates or Triple A have talked to him yet?

No but I will bet that you could get all the information you want from Brett Carr at Tatum.  He coached at Henderson before moving to Tatum.

I even picked Georgetown to beat FGCU in my bracket.  ;D [/quote] Is that because they play "real" basketball at Georgetown but not at FGCU?

[quote name="BH85" post="1395699" timestamp="1366302515"] 2 more important questions would be:  Do you box out for rebounds or block out for rebounds?  Do you run in-bounds plays or out-of-bounds plays? [/quote] I will wait for basketball royalty to address these intricacies.

This is how the "boys in the cow pasture" view it [img][Hidden Content]] [img][Hidden Content]]

[quote name="BH85" post="1395640" timestamp="1366292668"] They are actually synonymous.  Mr DV, though never wrong, got it backwards.  You'll hear pick ON ball and screen OFF ball from most coaches and analysts. [/quote] Now you've done it.  You have made the serious mistake of questioning "basketball royalty"

Where can more be learned? [img][Hidden Content]] [img][Hidden Content]]

[/quote]we may be small but we're slow.  ;D [/quote] When people find out that Huntington and Yates are exchanging students, you are gonna have problems, No look.

Yates will continue to be the bully on the block because they rebound, press and shoot the ball fairly decent from the outside and until the Tigers, Hawks and Mustangs become more proficient in areas other than the press Yates will own this neck of the woods for some time to come..... [/quote]Agreed! Somebody better stay off the track less and in the gym.  :D [/quote] Disagree- no African players in Silsbee , HJ, and Kountze and nobody from New Jersey either

[quote name="BMTSoulja1" post="1394837" timestamp="1366139615"] I propose that we invest in a dunk -o- meter for this person.... [Hidden Content] [/quote] I agree.  Dove, would it have been better if he had said "this individual" or " this player"?  What does it mean when you say "you people"?

[/quote] Nah, they are so well connected that they don't need any help  ;D [/quote] Yes, I suppose Olajuwon is as good as you are.

Do you provide that same type of assistance to Triple A and Yates?

And thanks Dove for helping Zach get his scholarship.

[quote name="Skip Bayless" post="1393830" timestamp="1365806728"] Doesn't really matter. They will lose to Yates once again. Talent isn't there to compete neither is the coaching. [/quote] Yep- Its amazing what that Yates coach has done with his "homegrown" talent

[/quote] Uhmmmm.... uh, 49. ;) ;D [/quote] Even though I watched him play a number of times, I  don't know the exact age of  Mr. Carrier when he graduated hence, the "approaching 50" remark.  Have seen a number of young men graduate at 17, 18. and 19.

If you were a close friend of Trey , then you would not have been old enough to play against a graduate of HJ in 1982 who ought to be approaching 50 right now.

[quote name="BLUEDOVE3" post="1393642" timestamp="1365775996"] Could not resist this one: [Hidden Content] [/quote] Hey Dove, probably none of that stuff was true.  It as just some jealous people trying to stir things up, right?

[/quote] This guy TORCHED the best of the best at the Fonde Rec Center in Houston in the summers. Regularly played on the NBA court with the pros, and was ALWAYS one of the best on the floor.  I am telling you, he was and STILL IS THAT good. [/quote] Any idea why he never got a chance to play for a living.  Surely there were people "in the know" who would have gotten him a chance.

IF he never played organized basketball, how can you rate him as the best player to ever come out of Houston?

[quote name="BADSANTA" post="1385751" timestamp="1363362170"] What about PA SFA and Lumberton? [/quote] I can remember a very tall kid at SFA who went on to play at, I think, Virginia.

[quote name="BLUEDOVE3" post="1393238" timestamp="1365608399"] I'd like to think I helped push Zach into becoming the player he turned into.  ;D [/quote] Dove is not only the ultimate prognosticator but also now the de facto coach of successful area players
