[quote name="jkbtjc53" post="1233610" timestamp="1341190190"] Travon Blanchard and Tony Brown are the best the 409 has to offer this year [/quote] Tony Brown is not a senior. I would put Sezar ahead of Blanchard.

First game of the season, Port Neches-Groves vs Silsbee at Tiger Stadium.

[quote name="ECBuc08" post="1233066" timestamp="1340830018"] Dont try and start something by saying something is brewing.. Everyone loves coach sutherland.. Its gonna be another great year for the Bucs.. Cant wait! [/quote] Huh?? You do know that the head basketball position is open, right? Coach Russ Sutherland is the AD/head football coach. I believe Coach Davis is inquiring about the head basketball position.

Walter Yates Jr. aka Dick Vitale, officially accepted an assistant men's basketball job at Midwestern State University....NCAA Division II school in Wichita Falls, TX......in the Lone Star Conference with West Texas A&M, Tarleton State, Abilene Christian, Incarnate Word, Texas A&M-Commerce, etc. Congrats Walter and good fortune in your new job.

I ask this not in jest but would really like to know. Also, I believe each chapter has good and bad officials. Seen enough of each chapter over the past few years to come to that conclusion.

[quote name="AHUDDLESTON" post="1232897" timestamp="1340737915"] BUNA is tied 7 boy's bball between 1954 and 1963 and 4 girls bball between 55 and 61. Barbers hill: 3 g bball, 2 football, 2 boy's track(1930's and 1950's) UIL archives [/quote] I thought Barbers Hill had some baseball and volleyball state titles too.

[quote name="Dick Vitale" post="1232888" timestamp="1340736293"] I'm not sure....anyone know? Maybe West Orange Stark...with football and track....not real sure. [/quote] WOS has 2 football and 3 track state titles. If you combine boys and girls and all sports, I believe Barbers Hill would probably have the most.

This is what I think: 1. Port Arthur Lincoln 2. Buna 3. Hardin Jefferson 4. Hebert 5. Kountze Disputes? 8) [/quote] I would put Kountze ahead of Hebert. The rest is good by me.

Former WOS OC and current Texas High assistant coach Toby Foreman has been hired to be the new offensive coordinator at LaMarque High school.

East Chambers and Evadale Curious to see who gets these jobs

So Kenny Hoffpauir coaches one year and gives it up? What's up with that?

Not this year. But when the Stangs do lose another district game it will most likely come at the hands of Silsbee. The Tigers are the only team in the district that can match up with WOS on an annual basis. Silsbee defeated WOS in district a few years ago and should have had a couple more. I don't see anyone defeating WOS in district this year.

[quote name="shooter" post="1232120" timestamp="1340331349"] I think the numbers Yates have, and the fact that many of the Houston schools tend to specialize in a certain sport,  greatly reduces the chances of a SETX  team getting to the "Big Dance". The kids in those area  have greater opportunity to compete and develop their basketball skills on a year-round basis. There is only one area team that I believe has the Houston-type talent to compete with anyone, and it's located [b]North of Silsbee[/b]. [/quote] Shooter is speaking of Jasper. Here was Jasper's schedule and record for last year: JASPER BULLDOGS (18-12, 11-1) Head Coach: Brian Fox Nov. 18 - at Shepherd, 76-50 Nov. 21 - [b]at Orangefield, 63-59[/b] Nov. 22 - [b]West Orange-Stark, 63-74[/b] Nov. 29 - San Augustine, 63-74 Dec. 1-3 - Huntington Tournament                   Nacogdoches, 57-99                   San Augustine, 53-55                   Buffalo, 50-23 Dec. 6 - at San Augustine, 65-70 Dec. 8-10 - Brookshire-Royal Tournament                     SATCH, 43-73                                 L                                 L Dec. 16 - [b]at Silsbee, 28-76[/b] Dec. 20 - at Kirbyville, 55-44* Dec. 27-29 - Bridge City Tournament                       Humble Summer Creek, 63-60                       [b]West Orange-Stark, 59-66[/b]                       Little Cypress-Mauriceville JV, 52-31                       Port Neches-Groves, W                     [b] West Orange-Stark JV, 60-57[/b] Dec. 30 - Bridge City, 2:30 p.m. Jan. 3 - Lufkin Hudson, 55-48* Jan. 6 - at Pollok Central, 55-44* Jan. 10 - Huntington, 56-61, OT* Jan. 13 - at Center, 47-40* Jan. 17 - at Diboll, 66-43* Jan. 24 - Kirbyville, 51-39* Jan. 27 - at Lufkin Hudson, 64-43* Jan. 31 - Pollok Central, 59-51* Feb. 3 - at Huntington, 62-38* Feb. 7 - Center, 57-42* Feb. 10 - Diboll, 58-44* Feb. 24 - [b]Area: Fairfield, 34-64[/b]** I highlighted a few of their games. Silsbee's JV also beat Jasper's JV last year by 15, and Silsbee's JV wasn't that good. Maybe Jasper got several transfers in for this up coming season. ;) ::)
