Dove- I would like to see this game.  Is there any way that you can, through your varied and influential connections, make it possible for a Republican to attend and safely leave the game?

[/quote]Hmmm? Sounds like a Central fan with grandious ideals with the Red Sea parting to Austin, Texas  ;D [/quote] Grandiose?  How can that be?  The greatest baskeball prognosticator ( until recently when Soulja replaced him) has stated for months that Central would be in Austin in March and he is the last word when it comes to basketball.

He might try saying the players played the game with the flu.

[quote name="BLUEDOVE3" post="1355505" timestamp="1355605701"] Nash, is PN-G better than most people think? I get the feeling they are trying to build their program over there [/quote] I dont know what people think but they dealt with the press pretty well and were extremely patient.  Only problem I saw was when there was less than two minutes left and they were down double digits, they were still running the same offense that often took them more than 30 or 40 seconds to generate a shot.  HJ has a very good freshmen group this year and the PNG freshmen squandered a 10 point lead but managed to win in overtime after an HJ player missed two free throws with 1 second left in regulation to win the game.

62-48  This game was close until the last 5 minutes.  HJ post man was absent with illness and HJ couldnt buy a shot in the first half.  3or 4 of the HJ starters finished the game with 4 fouls.  Not a pretty game for the Hawks.

East Chambers beat W Orange?

[/quote] Yes, the basketball players lift weights at HJ, Dove even though you would like it better if nobody believed it.  The difference is that the HJ basketball staff makes those decisions for the basketball players rather than the football coach

Ok- gotcha- Yes, I am pretty well connected to the HJ basketball program.  I agree wholeheartedly with you last couple of sentences.  Was I right about your board name?  If a player is not committed 100% to basketball during the basketball season,( for whatever the reason) I think everyone benefits if he doesnt play.

;D

Dove- Maybe you should criticize them for their schedule and off season workout regimen.

[quote name="scapegoat" post="1354826" timestamp="1355497635"] Dove,there are quacks in every profession and I think Nash has found one in his Big 12 scout.To evaluate a player in his secondary sport is crazy.Example Coby Couron's role on the Ned. Basketball team is very limited.His role on the Football team was someone who led by example with high intensity because the program viewed him as a vital part of success.If a scout passed him up for what he saw on the basketball court,It would be that Football  programs loss.What would impress me as a scout is that Coby has decided to give up basketball this season to put on more size and strength to help him at the next level.I know it will hurt the Ned. basketball team that Washington and Couron have made a tough decision.I hope they understand. [/quote] My big 12" scout" is the [b]head coach [/b] and has refused offers from several major programs that recently hired a head coach.  His record more than documents he knows exactly what he is doing.  He was not saying that he made evaluations on basketball alone but that he  could tell more about a kids athleticism on the basketball court than he could in pads.

If so, I hate to hear that. This is couron's last year and i think he will regret that decision later. On the other side of the coin, both these boys have a good chance to play football at the next level. So maybe that has something to do with there decision. If it does and they are both wanting to heal up and reduce the risk of injury, i don't blame them.  As for the team goes, it would be nice to have that extra size in there to give Weisbrod a break, which could help late in games. IMO... the dogs will be just fine and will continue to improve.

[/quote] Doesnt matter which one it is.  The point is that this individual supports multiple sport athletes and basketball if helpful to him in choosing who he wants.  I don't care to quote him in writing because I did not tell him I would be doing so.
