Is Keithan Haynes still on the team?

[quote name="baseball25" post="1154105" timestamp="1325649860"] lol they are 17-8, they be fine!!! your acting like they are a 500 team [/quote] Expectations.... expectations...

[quote name="utfan06" post="1154064" timestamp="1325647890"] So this Harper kid is a sophomore? [/quote] I believe he's a Junior.

Talk about missed predictions by everyone.... Wow!

[quote name="bball2011" post="1153763" timestamp="1325625851"] Kountze 76 EC        69 [/quote] Bball, whats the word on Harper?

[quote name="utfan06" post="1153603" timestamp="1325610589"] I think Eric brisco will be cleared this week also [/quote] Who is this kid? I've never heard of him. Family?

Until Kountze gets D. Harper in at the PG spot or another PG that can handle pressure and direct an offense they will struggle against teams that put pressure on them. With this game being a HOME game for East Chambers I'll take the Bucs by 5. D. Harper is scheduled to be cleared tomorrow and will be available for the Anahuac game this Friday.

[/quote]hmmm..? Was Graylon invited? Its invitation only. I dont remember seeing him there. [/quote] Don't know the details BLU. I saw a tweet from one of his family members regarding the camp. That's if we're talking about the Lucas camp.

Kountze defeated Chireno yesterday 94-52! Way to bounce back.

[quote name="whsalum" post="1151686" timestamp="1325124975"] I've watched Kountze several times this year and youth isn't their problem.They are the smallest on the press I've ever seen a Lions club be so they are not getting the turnovers to run the break.The biggest trouble I've seen in the half court game is they don't have anyone to put pressure on the middle of the defense to open Linn up behind the arc.They basically have 4 people watching the man with the ball on the offensive end.On the bright side they have a guy on the bench that won't rest until he gets them lined out.They will finish in the top 2 in the district this year but I don't see a long playoff run for the Lions this year.It's dangerous to put all your eggs in a freshmans basket no matter how good he is projected to be. [/quote] Good summary whsalum. Dont get me wrong, I'm not saying put all of your eggs in freshman's basket. What I meant is that he will be a huge asset to the team because he is a TRUE PG. I think another problem this year is that we don't have an "on-the-court" LEADER or like you said one player that requires the attention of the defense. Without that man, nothing opens up.

[quote name="Tedlevon" post="1151621" timestamp="1325117563"] Not short-selling Kountze on this season; being new in town, I asked some people at the games-they've basically [b]told me that a lot of the talent will be gone after this year.[/b] I was wondering what the make-up of the program was and how it will all pan out. I'm enjoying watching them play and hope they can right the ship. [/quote] I actually think its the opposite. We have few freshmen playing Varsity this year and a JV squad that's pretty good. We only lose Haynes, Linn and Warren this year. I'm actually anxious to see what D. Harper will do once he's cleared to play next week.

I don't understand the up-and-down this year. I mean they've got some talent, but what's going on? At least the JV kids seem to have it together game-in and game-out. Maybe a few of them will make a good transition next season. Any opinions? I'm interested in getting other folks' takes on this. [/quote] The ugly truth is that next year Graylond Arnold is supposed to step in at PG, as a TRUE FRESHMAN. From what I've heard he is and will be better than all three of the Hancock guards that came through Kountze. [/quote] Yep, he'll look good in Tiger maroon and white. ;) [/quote] Keep dreamin. Too much family history and tradition in Kountze for him to leave. ;) ;D

Seriously Kountze!? Tenaha? Let's just focus on winning district now and preparing for next season. We need a PG in the worst way. SMH

[quote name="utfan06" post="1151345" timestamp="1325087258"] I don't think we got a good true point guard.. definitely don't have size.. and young players .. [b]but the guard play will come next season hopefully :-)[/b][/quote] If they're not lured away by another school...  :-X ;)

[quote name="whsalum" post="1151269" timestamp="1325045785"] Been a long time since I saw the Lions score 34 !!!! [/quote] Tell me about it! I'm used to us putting up 34 in one quarter! Don't really know what's going on. Youth, inexperience. Combination of both.

Kountze loses to Central Heights, again. 59-34. SMH :(

With Kountze playing last night and the Christmas break approaching this game will be closer than most expect. Kountze will still win by 15+.

[quote name="bball2011" post="1148927" timestamp="1324390022"] D. Harper will not be cleared to play until Jan. 4 [/quote] Dangit! Looks like he'll miss the 1st matchup against EC that Tuesday. Hope he's practicing with the team now.

[quote name="bball2011" post="1148833" timestamp="1324356481"] Just got home from the game, Kountze looked really focus and did what it took to win against a good Coldsprings team. The team looked like they are coming together, I did hear that Puckett quit. I hate see that cause he is a pretty good inside player. Jon Jon played but he is not at full speed but did contribute and Powell played...Once the get D. Harper up there on Varsity I think he will help with the ball handling. A very physical game tonight. Congrat's to Kountze and good luck to Coldsprings.. [/quote] Anyone know when Harper will make his debut? Seems like he's been waiting on UIL clearance for a few weeks now.

Did Powell play?

SMH [/quote] Actually, that is what he has coached mostly, girls basketball. Coached the Kountze girls for 3-4 years. [/quote] That's what I'm saying AAW. That it what disgusts me even more. Who knows what has happened in the past with him coaching GIRLS basketball.

Now that I think about it, hasn't this guy also coached GIRLS basketball too!? SMH
