[quote name="sleepy" post="959915" timestamp="1296673514"] Who cares about next year!!!!!!!!!!  Let's worry this year.  I love it that people are counting HJ out.  They have done it EVERY SINGLE YEAR. Also I love all of the stats AAW is posting since this rivalry began.  However he leaves out the most important stat of all and frankly the ONLY one that matters. State Championships: [b]HJ-1 Silsbee-0[/b] [/quote] That goes without saying. ;D (I am not intentionally leaving that out, I am just showing the head-to-head records between the two and how it has swung in Silsbee's favor)

WJ, is HJ going to take over that #7 state ranking soon? ;)

Already with the "next year" talk. ::) Still got plenty to play this season.

[/quote] HJ is taller than Silsbee this year and that doesn’t seem to be hurting the Tigers [/quote] But Silsbee has the best player in SE Texas and another guy easily in the Top 10!!!!  [b]A luxury they won't have next season!!!![/b] [/quote] Exactly!!!

Still pondering......... ;D

[quote name="ST4life" post="959781" timestamp="1296667086"] Who will be back for Silsbee next year? If I thinking correctly: [b]Gaines, Holmes, Elam & Barclay will be back[/b] If that’s true than I don’t see Silsbee having a horrible year I do see HJ giving them trouble but I don’t see HJ just outright crushing them Also Silsbee will probably move up 2 or 3 freshman that look pretty athletic which should help [/quote] Donte Wilson will be back as well.

[quote name="BADSANTA" post="959744" timestamp="1296665308"] True but yall are losing Gus, Sutherland, 32, and a few on the bench. [b]Bosha and Prudhomme will have to score a lot more next year[/b]. [/quote] They are not doing too bad a job of that this year. I don't think that will be a problem for them next season.

I am still scratching my head as to how I have been labeled a PNG hater. ???

[/quote][b]Guard play usually tells the tale when you get to Austin....last years team was a little shy in the guard position.[/b] Hopefully this year will be Silsbee year(if they make it).

Those juniors and sophomores play heavy minutes and are ready to step up. [/quote] [b]No DC and no Lane, means a totally different team!!!!![/b] [/quote] I agree. We went from the last 2-3 years with "Juco" height, to now just one '6"4 player. Next year we will not have a player over '6"2 and only 1 starter returning (Gaines). Silsbee should be okay next year, but nothing like the last 4 years. Tigers will be down some next year, a year away from being back on top. ;D But enough of this next year talk!!! Still plenty of season this year.

Records and game results between HJ and Silsbee the last 5 years (first two years of Silsbee being in 3A they were in different districts): '07                                                        HJ         Silsbee district               77-58  Silsbee            0-1          1-0 district               76-62   HJ                  1-1          1-1 Regional Final      83-79 OT   HJ             2-1          1-2 '08 district              77-59   HJ                   3-1         1-3 district              71-69  Silsbee              3-2         2-3 district tie          74-52  HJ                    4-2         2-4 regional final      62-50   Silsbee              4-3         3-4 '09 district             65-55   Silsbee              4-4          4-4 district             67-64    HJ                   5-4          4-5 district tie        62-50    Silsbee             5-5           5-5 '10 district            50-41     Silsbee            5-6            6-5 district            74-72      HJ                 6-6            6-6 regional final    53-50      Silsbee           6-7             7-6 '11 district            64-56    Silsbee            6-8            8-6 district            64-51    Silsbee            6-9            9-6 Of these 15 games, HJ won 4 of the first 6, but Silsbee has since won 7 of the last 9.

Ford signs with SFA

I am pondering, do I, or don't I? ;) ;D
