"Dayton football fan arrested outside the gates of Jasper/Livingston game" Authorities state he was carrying a sign in protest of Livingston being ranked #2 in SETXsports.com polls.

[quote name="Dav-J" post="1044888" timestamp="1314726665"] Wondering now about the "Ozen Basketball transfers". Things that make you go hmmmm.... [/quote] Well, in their case they both probably will be playing sub varsity this season, so it will not matter.

[/quote] Why would anyone "transfer" to Sour Lake??    How about virtually no crime and a high performing school district.  Who in their right mind would want to move to the Yates district.[b] Have you ever been to the neighborhoods nears Yates or for that matter most in Beaumont[/b]. Not the safest place for your kid to be around, just saying from experience!! [/quote] Well, in Jay Bilas (WY) case, yes he has. from the day he was born. ;) ;D

[quote name="82 5A State Champs" post="1044863" timestamp="1314725043"] Is that normal protocol? If he was enrolled last school year, one would think he would be eligible to play this school year. Does anybody know if he played in the game against Ozen? [/quote] No, he did not. I do not understand why he is not eligible. I would have thought when he enrolled in the spring, his eligibility would have been discussed then not at the beginning of this school year.

[quote name="Jay Bilas" post="1044858" timestamp="1314724888"] @Aggiesarewe....I am not real sure where you are going with your posts...can you clarify? I don't mean to offend by calling you biased.  Just not real sure where you are going with your posts about "happenings" and such. ??? ?????? Maybe I am missing something here. [/quote] Don't kid a kidder. You know EXACTLY what I am talking about. ;) "Living the dream!" ;D

[quote name="Jay Bilas" post="1044851" timestamp="1314724633"] Well for about the 5th time....Have you seen the thread on here entitled "the rich keeps getting richer"? It talks about the fact that Silsbee is receiving a new transfer..However, I read another thread entitled, "Houston Yates keeps on recr....er receiving transfers" (something like that) that suggests that the Houston school is recruiting kids to go there. I was just poking fun, I dont have a horse in the race, just thought it was pretty funny....and BIASED!  ;D [/quote] These days, you don't have a horse in any race. ;)

[quote name="Jay Bilas" post="1044836" timestamp="1314724076"] Huh? I have always been a pretty humble guy. Not sure about any "happenings" in my life, but yeah I guess you can still say that I am a humble guy...I still see there is no response to my earlier question, though, my friend!  Its OK to be a little biased towards your school or city! ;D [/quote] Not sure about "happenings"? ::) Okay, I'll let this go a bit longer. ;) ;D

[quote name="Jay Bilas" post="1044828" timestamp="1314723483"] Oh, I am in no way claiming to be an expert or anything like that...Just like good message board chatter from time to time..I am harmless! 8) [/quote] No expert huh? I guess some recent "happenings" in your life has made you humble. ;)

[quote name="Jay Bilas" post="1044822" timestamp="1314723047"] What? I don't understand. Does this mean you have been accused of being biased before? I am in no way trying to ruffle any feathers, just calling it as I have observed.  Am I right? Its called one thing for you guys and another for the other guys. I'm just saying... [/quote] My last post has nothing to do with what you said, but who said it. ;)

The young man moved in the spring, participated in spring game and 7 on 7 this summer. Not sure why the 21-5A district executive committee would not make him eligible. Hopefully Coach Stump can get the UIL approval.

Nash, make plans to attend. I am thinking this will happen. I will be doing the Ozen/Silsbee game in Silsbee . I believe it's Tuesday Nov. 29th. I will check to be sure.

[quote name="The Old Ball Coach" post="1044800" timestamp="1314721013"] Did he play on the 7on7 team, and if so didnt they make it to the state tournament. He would have been an ineligible player then. [/quote] 7 on 7 is not a UIL sanctioned sport. Do not know the requirements to play that sport.

[quote name="BLUEDOVE3" post="1044749" timestamp="1314717972"] [quote author=Jay Bilas link=topic=87377.msg1044706#msg1044706 date=1314715176] What, in your opinion, constitutes "rough"? Poverty stricken? No new development, except for the University? or is it the demographic? I have been over there millions of time and can you believe that, NOTHING has EVER happened to me? Go figure...Its not a "rough" area at all...Its an older, under developed area, that by the way has some MILLION DOLLAR homes located less than 2 miles away from that "rough" area...(MacGregor Area, Medical Center)...The Third Ward of Houston has some fascinating history behind it...which is where Yates HS is located...Do the research. [/quote]I don't mean to sound racist  ::) but if yall go down just a few blocks from J. Yates off Southmore Street, you will find white people walking their dogs and they live in the area. This area is not a mile from Jack Yates. Explore people-get out of S.E.Texas sometimes. [/quote] Dove reminds me of Jim McKay's monolog in ABC's Wide World of Sports: "Spanning the globe to bring you a constant variety of sorts" (left the p out purposely ;D)

The marked out date just looks bad. That tells me someone was trying to be deceitful about it. Who is that someone or some persons, is the question.

and the Beaumont Enterprise story: [Hidden Content] This story helps shed some light on the issue. Now the question is, who marked out the date? ;)

[quote name="Honest Abe" post="1044491" timestamp="1314674452"] We all know that they did not end up at Yates by chance. Anyone who believes that is about as naive as you can be. You don't see a lot of 6'10" people who go to school for communication purposes. I'm not saying the coach himself is the one who is recruiting, b/c I don't know their coach, but someone could be doing it on his behalf. It sounds dirty to me. Again, when did HS basketball start becoming college programs by recruiting kids? [/quote] Yates high school basketball coach is none other than Greg Wise, Mr. AAU. He coaches an elite AAU team (of course none of those players on his AAU team play at Yates or that would be illegal ::)) but that doesn't keep him from............ ;) :D
