[quote name="Tiger94" post="1372149" timestamp="1360451772"] As I figured. Any idea on what the high water mark was for Silsbee? 1300-1400 would be my guess in late 70s early 80s. [/quote] I graduated in '82. My senior class was 252. Our enrollment then was around 1250.

[quote name="BADSANTA" post="1372137" timestamp="1360449998"] IMO if you move the games back home and make the ticket situations fair to parents, it could work. Like I said give each player on each team 4 game tickets. Give the visiting school 40% and home team 60%. Make all ticket purchase s come from the admin offices. [b]These 2 schools will never fill Ford Arena[/b]. [/quote] But filling Ford Arena is not the point or goal. The point of playing there was to allow more to attend than what could attend at the home courts. No locking of doors, no fire marshal situations, no headaches for both schools administrations. It's a win win for everyone involved. The players and coaches enjoy playing the game at Ford Arena. Why go back to a headache when this facility can accommodate all?

[quote name="BADSANTA" post="1372138" timestamp="1360450306"] I expect Silsbee and HJ to face off in Huntsville again. I think there is something special about this Silsbee team. [/quote] So you expect HJ to make Huntsville if they finish 3rd in district?

Just looked it up. Silsbee's enrollment in BS years ('96-'98) were around 1080.

[quote name="BADSANTA" post="1372122" timestamp="1360448017"] Thats good to hear! Hopefully that growth can help us stay strong for years to come. Didn't Silsbee have a few kids about 5 years back move to Ozen? [/quote] I was just aware that it was the Bolton kid and that was it.

[quote name="Mr. Buddy Garrity" post="1372106" timestamp="1360445620"] I got a question: Before i left for Alaska in 2007 i thought Silsbee was building up and expanding, was that not the case?? [quote author=AggiesAreWe link=topic=109090.msg1372105#msg1372105 date=1360445567] Silsbee will not be 2A. Not going to happen. Actually, Silsbee will be [b]4A next year[/b]. ;) [/quote] I see what you did there.  ;) [/quote] Silsbee's growth has picked up of late. After dropping for a few years it has leveled off for the last couple years. It's beginning to pick back up some.

Why do we have a thread about a game that is not going to happen?

Silsbee will not be 2A. Not going to happen. Actually, Silsbee will be 4A next year. ;)

[quote name="BADSANTA" post="1372098" timestamp="1360445135"] I agree! From what I hear, the games at Ford park are less than half full and a lot local fans arent going. They should allow kids to have 4 tickets each for parents and sibbling. Rest sell at the door. [b]Bring these games back home.[/b] [/quote] [size=18pt][b]NO!!!!![/b][/size] Even though Ford Arena looks half empty (it does hold 7000 for basketball), the crowds that have attended these two games are much larger than what could be fit in the two schools home gyms, particularly HJ which only holds 1050. That's over a 1000 less that what has attended the two games at Ford Arena this year. Game needs to stay at Ford Arena so that it can accommodate everyone with no problems.

That was their enrollment number for this current realignment.

Silsbee has always had very good multisport athletes. I think HJ sould find a way to get some of those primetime basketball players on the football field. [/quote]why? [/quote] no-look, check your pm's
