BADSANTA

I do know quiet a few successful Yates garaduates that would beg to differ. My sister in law went to Yates and is the head home claims for Farmers in the state of Texas. Maybe she is the only one. IDK

[/quote] YOu are probably right.  At the same time, I will also wager that a lot more of them are gainfully employed/productive citizens as well.  Good thing about those hick HJ kids is that they are taught how to work for income rather than apply for it. [/quote] I was waiting out you buddy! Yates kids apply for government assistance is what your saying SteveNash? So you are basically saying they graduate just to apply for a Lone Strar shopping card? WoW!

I think either Central or Nederland has the absolute best shot in the area. No more Houston schools for them to deal with.

I think Sioabee could have some very good wideouts this year.

Nederland might go undefeated in the regular season!

No kids goes to Yates for a D1 scholarship in academics! Truth Hurts son! [/quote] Ok, fine. My last comment shows that I agree with you that the kids transfer to Yates for basketball reasons. Maybe you misunderstood what I was saying or maybe I was unclear. Son? I'm pretty sure I'm older than you, plus I already have a dad.  ;D ;D ;D [/quote] I agree! You are older than me and the term "son" has nothing to do with father son relationship. Your maybe too old to understand sir!

[quote name="Kvillecats" post="1244101" timestamp="1344747510"] Badsanta, no they wouldn't. Again Silsbee Have no good offensive scheme so how would they blow a quality team out?? You guys have a lot returning but a team with an average defense would cause a lot of problems for y'all. I'm not a Silsbee fan, but I was pissed to see y'all lose to BC the way y'all did. Why in the heck would you run the spread at the 1 yard line when you got a huge running back to push it in?? I don't understand that! [/quote] Bridge City had a very good team last year. Pat Reed was injured and didn't play much at all. Drake did a nice job keeping the game close and getting Silsbee in position to win. Silsbee threw about 6 INT's that game and drove inside the BC one yard line twice to get killed by holding penalties. BC would have put 49 up on Kville last year. Silsbee does have issues in the spread I agree, but what other offense would you run? The old option Veer offense? Pro Set? Me personally I would have Floyd Spearman running more out of the I formation that the spread. Give him a head of steam going into the line verse having to take off at a stand still.

Buns will be just fine! Good luck to them.

I didn't think Stallworth was bigger than the Berry Center.

Their academics are low! You can look that up! No kids goes to Yates for a D1 scholarship in academics! Truth Hurts son!

Yates isn't a school most patents would drive their kids 20miles to attend unless he was a basketball star. Yates has 17 kids waiting on transfers. 14 are for basketball.

[quote name="MBaller#1" post="1243925" timestamp="1344668855"] Yes they did but it was the first time and only time is school history on a 2 point conversion, but how many times has Silsbee won at K-ville and at Silsbee hmm lets count. [/quote] Kirbyville would get blasted by Silsbee this year. I kind of agree about the offense. Silsbee should move away from the spread and go with a traditional pro set offense. It's the coaches decision though.

When is the last time Silsbee beat PNG in football? Like 1992 in the playoffs?

I'm almost sick of people huggin on Yates acorns! They lost to Kimball last year because they have zero fundamentals. They do have size and speed. They shoot free throws like a team full of Shaq's and Dwight Howards. Any given night a upset can take place!

I'm surprised Hardin Jefferson and Jasper stadium isn't listed!

Patrick has a lot of size and very good speed. If he has a season of few turnovers, nice passing, and rushing, Silsbee could go beyond the second round. If he is as good as I know he is, he could be a major D1 prospect next year. Patrick still has a ways to go before he is compared to JJ. Just saying guys.

Yates wont win 3A this year!

Man I would have loved to come out and show support. That place was 5 feet under water a few weeks ago due to all that rain. I live in Cypress Landing directly next to the course. I hate I missed you guys. Congrats!

I just couldn't help myself. [/quote] ::) ::) Just like the Berry Center in Cypress Fairbanks?  ;) ;) [/quote] Difference, Mr. Berry had long been retired from the district. Wasn't currently on staff. [/quote] Mr. Berry is friend of our family! Helped get my wife the right contacts to get promoted to Principal in Cy Fair.

Huge waste of money!

When is the next time this will take place? Are there any local schools on the edge of going up or down? Example Kountze to 1A or HJ to 2A?

I liked to watch Desmond Doss and Sid Wilson from Silsbee. The best single game performance was AJ Dugat and Dayton vs Sulpher Springs hands down.

I picked Curtis Ceasar Westbrook!
