[quote name="ForeverADog" post="1168121" timestamp="1327943620"] Our goal should be higher than just get to katy. We can make some noise in Katy. They just need to take it one game at a time. [/quote] ForeverADog, check your messages.

[quote name="speechless" post="1168110" timestamp="1327942466"] [quote]Very. Kind of like folks who try to determine what players or teams are good or not without having played that particular sport or at least at the level as to which they are referring to. You, me and everyone else have made opinions from time to time on what or who is good or bad in sports without having "great" knowledge or experience to the subject.[/quote] Not sure what you are getting at?  Explain please? [/quote] My point is that everyone has an opinion(including you and I) on subjects that we do not have vast knowledge and experience on. It may seem funny to you but it is no different than you and me having a discussion on who we think is the better player in the NFL or college football, where I know both of us have never played.

[quote name="speechless" post="1168092" timestamp="1327940537"] I think it is funny any time someone who is not a coach tries to determine who is a good coach and who is not.  Especially in the high school ranks. [/quote] Very. Kind of like folks who try to determine what players or teams are good or not without having played that particular sport or at least at the level as to which they are referring to. ::) You, me and everyone else have made opinions from time to time on what or who is good or bad in sports without having "great" knowledge or experience to the subject.

Come join us tonight at Hamburger Depot @6pm, downtown Beaumont for great food and fun!! If you cannot, post your questions and comments here on this thread for us to discuss tonight on the show.

[/quote]It will be interesting to see during the PNG-Nederland game how each coach will approach this game. What strategies will PNG employ to offset the elite coaching skills at Nederland. Can the PNG coaches slow down the momentum at Nederland and English's budding God status among the other S.E.Texas coaches? [/quote] Well, in this particular case, they will have to wait till next year. These two teams are finished playing each other for this season. ;)

Where is indian 15/16? Seems he has disappeared. Cat has got his tongue.

Week 0    Silsbee Week 1      WOS [/quote] Any idea what the third game will be? [/quote] Humble Summer Creek in week 2. [/quote]Not a bad predistrict schedule.  Now we all (20-4a) needs to know if Livingston will come back or not, That would mean that we will have an extra non-district game (week 3 game). [/quote] Well, if Livingston is moved out of 20-4A and the district is left with just 7 teams, that will mean that all the district teams except for 1 will have their bye week during district play. Something tells me that this district will remain with 8 teams, but not necessarily with Livingston included. Like Grad stated, we will find out Thursday morning. Can't wait!!

[quote name="5 on 5" post="1167968" timestamp="1327896316"] Will this game be broadcast??.....I think HJ takes this one [/quote] Yes, the game will be broadcast here on the site.

[quote name="ShlyKBMT" post="1167990" timestamp="1327900040"] Thought Memorial and PN-G agreed to play already. [/quote] PNG decided not to play is what I was told.

Will BMTSoulja1 be at Hamburger Depot tonight?

Oh yeah, there is LOTS to discuss about the state of 20-4A!! ;D [/quote] In the grand scheme of the playoffs, the Warren @ Hardin game is more important than the Silsbee @ HJ game. Silsbee and HJ will go to the playoffs, where as Warren, Hardin and Buna will battle till the last district game for that last playoff spot behind Kountze and East Chambers. That is a vital game as far as the playoffs are concerned. I would think that winning a game that in that scenario is more important than bragging rights.

[quote name="davott" post="1167880" timestamp="1327879152"] We got distracted by all of the UT scouts.  Playing on House money, but we shoulda won that one. [/quote] Not sure how a team should have won a game that they lose by 22. ::)

[quote name="bobbymcgee" post="1167885" timestamp="1327880945"] will both PN-G/Silsbee games be at PN-G too? [/quote] NO!!

[quote name="Dick Vitale" post="1167871" timestamp="1327877033"] I am saying from being around it, those numbers may not be accurate...I DOUBT Wheatley has 800 students, let alone 1100...They did not want to drop to 3A in the past, is all I am saying...Not making any accusations...just OBSERVATIONS ;)... [/quote] They do not have to drop is the point. They could still opt up like the others have done in the past few realignments. There was no need to fudge any numbers. You always have the option to stay up.

[quote name="ForeverADog" post="1167861" timestamp="1327875678"] I pick all home teams! [/quote] List them please.

[quote name="Dick Vitale" post="1167866" timestamp="1327875974"] Numbers reported versus ACTUAL ATTENDANCE FIGURES....Like I said before, not 100% sure, but I understand how it works over there...and I am PRETTY SURE that Wheatley, for example does NOT have 1101 students by any means...PRETTY SURE... [/quote] So you are saying HISD is reporting false numbers to the UIL? They are lying to the UIL? They are cheating? I thought this kind of stuff didn't happen over there?

Here is the link to those numbers at UIL for last realignment (4A): [Hidden Content]

[quote name="Dick Vitale" post="1167840" timestamp="1327871923"] I think that we are saying the same thing AAW...Jones, Sterling, and Yates have specialized "magnet" programs within the school, NOT traditional magnet programs...Kashmere sends those kids to Barbara Jordan during the day and they are allowed to play sports at Kashmere..I can pretty much tell you that those numbers are WAY off...Particularly at Wheatley....1101? They have not had THAT many kids there in a good while..I can't say for certain, but I will bet the ranch those HISD numbers are inaccurate...They do a lot for re-alignment purposes in HISD..THAT I DO know for certain. [/quote] Those numbers came straight from the UIL. They were used to classify those schools in the last realignment. The numbers were sent to UIL by HISD. HISD decided to opt up in the last 2 realignments. I am holding that packet in my hands right now. (have attended the last 2 realignments, broadcast live from Region V, we will be there this year again). You can look on the UIL website to get these same numbers or if you happen to have a Dave Campbell Texas Football mag, those numbers are in there too. How are those numbers not accurate?

These are the enrollment numbers for the HISD 4A schools in the last realignment (per UIL): 21-4A Austin          1904 Reagan        1842 Waltrip        1789 Davis          1563 Sharpstown  1239 Yates          1209 Sterling        1103 22-4A Wheatley          1101 Worthing          1013 Washington        946 Furr                  865 Scarborough      733 Jones                686 Kashmere          596 Washington, Furr, Scarborough, Jones and Kashmere have had 3A numbers for the past several years. Sterling, Wheatley and Worthing would be the next likely schools to drop to 3A.

[quote name="Dick Vitale" post="1167813" timestamp="1327869090"] [quote author=AggiesAreWe link=topic=94937.msg1167810#msg1167810 date=1327868796] [quote author=Dick Vitale link=topic=94937.msg1167807#msg1167807 date=1327868470] [quote author=AggiesAreWe link=topic=94937.msg1167798#msg1167798 date=1327867415] I still say Yates will end up with 4A numbers. Last realignment they had over 1200 students and cutoff for 3A was at 990. Just don't see them dropping more than 210 students in just 2 years. But, it's possible. [/quote] Yeah its possible, but [b]doubtful that it happened like that[/b]...Spoke to some folks yesterday in the HISD loop, and they indicated that the community is totally against going to 3A...I think that they were not counting the 200+ kids that are in the School of Communications program at Yates, that do not LIVE in the zone. Thats ONE of the explanations that I got about the numbers...Its SO many ways that schools can fudge those numbers one way or another in order to get the outcome that they desire...HISD athletic dept. is not particularly crazy about it either. I may GO to the re-alignment meeting next week...Its gonna be GOOD! 8) [/quote] Doubtful that it happened like what? What are you speaking of? HISD did not check the box to opt up for Yates, so that tells me they are content on having Yates go where their numbers place them. The snap shot day was back in October, so the numbers have been sent in. Problem is, HISD did not make those numbers public like other districts did on snapshot day. [/quote] I was stating that it was doubtful that the numbers just dropped so rapidly in just two years..I was saying that maybe they failed to count those Communcation students who live OUTSIDE the zone..Thats what I was told, anyway...There was a reason HISD kept those numbers private....I guarantee.. ;)...I don't think they really WANT to go down..They may HAVE to, but I don't believe thats the desire though. [/quote] If HISD does not WANT to go down, then why didn't they just check the box to opt up, regardless of the numbers, like they have done the past 3 realignments? BTW, who do you men by THEY when you state "they failed to count those Communication numbers who live outside the zone"? The snapshot number is how many students are enrolled in said high school, all campuses. Not how many students live within the school zone.
