[/quote] I dont remeber Cam playing Defense... but thats just me [/quote] Don't remember the Auburn defense playing much defense either...but that's just me. You know what I mean by "single handedly". We know he didn't snap the ball to himself or catch his own passes, but he was the main reason they won the NC.

Should have changed positions coming out of high school. That would have been the best move for him.

That was a really close game until they threw the first pitch...

[url=[Hidden Content]] 4 teams from Texas in the top 25. Baseball America poll had Sam Houston in their top 25, which would mean 5 teams from Texas in the top 25.

My money is on Dale to HF and Barbay to Jasper. Dale will stay at H-F until retirement unless he is fired.

Until they raise the pay or there is a sudden spike in talent, H-F will continue to be a stepping stone school. They might as well go out and get a big name because whoever they get is going to leave after a couple years anyway. The only people I see that would stay more than 3 years from that list is Lance Dale (who is from H-F) or Billy Tilton (who coached there in the 90's). In the last 4 years H-F's record has been 6-34 (Mangan: 3-17, Price: 3-17). If the new coach goes 8-12 in his first 2 years, he is going to look like a miracle worker. Then, he'll leave. Revolving door.

I'm just going to go ahead and bump this to the top just so everyone knows that you two look like idiots. "Good luck in the little 12  8) "

[url=[Hidden Content]] Pat Knight rants about the lack of leadership from seniors on the Lamar basketball team.

Congrats on the win H-F. It's been long overdue.

I don't understand the argument for the "weaker" teams that would be "hurt" by a shot clock? Either roll with the punches or get out of the ring. If your team is going to get blasted by 30 points without a shot clock, you never really had a chance anyway.

It's like letting a power run team in football not have a play clock.

When I get on SETXsports and it says "#1 So-and-so vs. #3 so-and-so" what is that referring to?

Forgive me for taking a hiatus from this forum but what are these high school basketball "rankings" on this forum based on? Are they rankings based in SETX or the state?

[quote name="no-look" post="1160975" timestamp="1326675476"] Lot of difference in HS and college. For the reasons AAW and eastbb stated is why there needs to be no shot clock... [/quote] I bet there were people who said we didn't need the 3 point line either.

High school basketball needs a shot clock. It's another step closer to college basketball, so why not make the kids at the high school level more ready? It would change the game for the better.

I'm an HF alum and this is the FOURTH teacher-student inappropriate relationship that has happened since the 04-05 school year. There must be something in the water out here!

Alright I am going to throw my ingredients into the pot because I went to H-F once upon a time, and I believe I know a little bit about the Admin/coaching/teaching aspect of the situation at hand. Throughout my years at H-F as a student athlete I noticed that H-F was what I like to call a "stepping-stone school", and by that I mean that H-F was never a coach's final destination. It seems as though everyone was using H-F to get to greener pastures, or just took the job because that was the only thing available. Now that I've said that, I would like to comment on the discussion about players transferring to other schools because of sports, and I would like to tell those players to take off your superstar glasses and stop looking at the world as if all the college scouts are here to watch "Little Johnny" play basketball, football, etc. More than likely none of these kids we speak of are superstar athletes and probably won't play basketball at a D-1 college, as there are very few athletes in all of SETX to do so, and even less in Hamshire-Fannett. If an athlete is D-1 caliber, people usually know before he even gets to high school. If the kid likes to play basketball, let him play for his hometown and not be like LeBron and "take his talents elsewhere". There is no pride in moving to the bigger/better school, because when you stay home, work hard, and build something that the community can support, it builds a sense of pride. That's how programs are built, not by everyone running to greener pastures. High school is about getting your education, making friends/memories on and off the court that you will remember for the rest of your life, maturing as an adult, and finding out what you want to do with the rest of your life.

[/quote] Any weight training on game days is stupid, but if you choose to be a multiple sport athlete then you should be dedicated to each sport by giving effort into each respective sport. If there isn't a game on that day and a student only has basketball practice that day then the student should do his lifting for football on that day, but lifting on game days is totally ignorant on the football and basketball coach's behalf. If I'm not mistaken I have heard that H-F actually has some talented players on varsity this year and if that's true then there is no reason not to see results.
