[quote name="BEARCAT" post="1170608" timestamp="1328210120"] There is usually (not always) a big difference in talent from 4a to 3a at the State level. Just look at the results of the YMBL tournament this year when some top 4a schools played one of the best (silsbee) 3a schools from our area. Yates is now ranked #1 in 4a (I think).  I hope HJ and Silsbee can continue to be the class of region 3 but as of right now I think Yates will dominate. [/quote]Ahhhh! Refreshing! 

[quote name="setxbbfan" post="1170602" timestamp="1328210076"] I agree-I'm asking can coach Wise hang with Sutherland and Siglar.  I have seen them play many times.  The very few times he had to make adjustments-he struggled. [/quote]he struggles against Findley Prep (with their old players) and nationally ranked teams.

[quote name="setxbbfan" post="1170590" timestamp="1328209780"] How will Wise fare coaching against guys like Sutherland and Siglar.  He has his critics. [/quote] ::) ::)

You can make all the adjustments you want to, if players don't get it, well..........................

IF MR. ENGLISH IS MAKING ALOT OF ADJUSTMENTS IM GUESSING HE MUST HAVE A FEW WEAK LINKS IN HIS TEAM. EVEN A BLIND SQUIRREL CAN FIND AN ACORN EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE. 8) [/quote] The game of basketball is full of adjustments always.  I am suggesting (and so is the Nederland record) that Mr. English is quite adept at choosing where and when to make his adjustments.  I further suspect that every team has weak links and, in order to exploit them, the opposition must also make adjustments.  To this point, Mr. English is clearly the superior "adjustor". [/quote]And his players have bought into his system.

Been at his live performances ;)

FELLAS, Yates follow the rules. Don't believe all the hype from the media and rumors. They know people watch their program.

[quote name="dogs1218" post="1170566" timestamp="1328209032"] Just my thought, but I think the team undefeated in district has the most talent. I respect Coach English and know he does a fantastic job, but sometimes the players dont get as much credit as they deserve. Great Job Dogs and hope yall continue to perform well! [/quote]You guys are undefeated because you play like a team. Very unselfish and your players play within [color=red]AND ACCEPT[/color] their roles and limitations. A very important commodity to winning

[quote name="setxbbfan" post="1170569" timestamp="1328209113"] Blue -u r right more than you are wrong.  However-I don't see the automatic.  The line between HJ/Silsbee and Yates will be somewhat thin.  I do give yates an edge-but automatic -no way. [/quote]I agree, HJ and Silsbee won't lay down

Got hosed again. I hate traveling to Livingston a couple times a year, so I can only imagine what those folks over there feel like having to do it every week! Just flat sux! [/quote] I would think they play the same amount of home games as everyone else. [/quote] Livingston has to travel more than all the other 20-4A teams put together. In the two year span, they have to make 7 trips to the Triangle in football, 14 in volleyball, basketball, baseball and softball. Whereas the other 20-4A schools only make 1 trip in football, 2 in the other four sports. Livingston gets hosed in this deal, not the other 20-4A schools. [/quote]Hosed big time. Imagine on school nights with an exam the next morning.

Yates is an automatic over southeast texas ;)

And I thought you are the dunk-o-meter guy? Talent are dunks only, at least thats what you had me believing  :-\

[quote name="rollinac" post="1170412" timestamp="1328203052"] Example:  How many Non-District 4A Schools will GCM pass on their way to Galveston Ball?  I counted 9 but it depends on which way you go I guess.  That's not to mention BH who is about 10 minutes in the other direction or Dayton 20 minutes... [/quote]So you prefer Humble to travel to Galveston? Baytown can hit Belyway 8 to 45 traffic

I feel sick.

:D :D :D :D

I agree. Talent has little or nothing to do when these two play. Its more about who wants it more.

You gotta give the props to coaches at schools like Nederland (and HJ). They keep winning with [s]no [/s] little talent  ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Its not a perfect system. But overall is good

Yep, keep these *district* notes because thats about all the history from here on out ;D

[quote name="BADSANTA" post="1170456" timestamp="1328204826"] Wow! Good luck to the rest of Region 3 3A schools. Silsbee and HJ need to join forces now! Lol [/quote]Where is Aggie? He tried to discredit the move some months ago.

[quote name="pete092775" post="1170503" timestamp="1328206764"] RC DONT WORRY I BET THEM CENTRAL AND OZEN COACHS HAVE BEEN REVIEWING THE TAPES LET NEDERLAND SHOW UP AT CENTRAL WITH THAT SAME OLE GAME PLAN. THEY MIGHT WALK IN HAPPY BUT LEAVE CRYING. :'( [/quote] I think its more about those players having the discipline within the game, and playing within their skills to beat Nederland. ;)

[quote name="NB-Dawg" post="1170395" timestamp="1328202169"] Their ability to  [s]recruit[/s]  err, convince kids to transfer will diminish IMO, bc some kids may view 3A as a 'smaller stage' which could limit their college opportunities. [/quote]With Yates, it won't matter because they are already in a weak 4-A district. Its the games out of district where they will shine and get students to move-in to their district

HJ, it was a good run while it lasted. Been saying on this list Yates was probably dropping down. Wheatley's pride and tradition probably kept them opted up.

[/quote] If he hits the weights, that will certainly help but I hope he dedicates some of that weight time to jumping rope.  I believe it will help him more [/quote]He should do both. Its not about today, but tomorrow.
