[quote name="bigdog" post="1168071" timestamp="1327936766"] Back on topic.  the discussion is the Ned vs PNG game not coaching comparisons. [/quote]It will be interesting to see during the PNG-Nederland game how each coach will approach this game. What strategies will PNG employ to offset the elite coaching skills at Nederland. Can the PNG coaches slow down the momentum at Nederland and English's budding God status among the other S.E.Texas coaches?

[quote name="snooker" post="1168061" timestamp="1327936179"] sportsmanship. ... got nothing to do with a coach or kids " getting better" . there will always be a pitiful team with a pitiful coach that does not want to be there anyway.  -- now that said - if chester is not going to get back on defense and just give up layups...maybe i can see it.  i think the real problem is going over 100 pt spread. if someone wins 85-22 it doesnt raise quite as much fuss.dont know why? [/quote]Sportsmanship = having a running clock set into place. Its all about perception. If we were at an academic all american bowl and one team was killing the competition, nothing would be said about sportsmanship. The losers would go home and prepare better next time.

English is a great coach. But to compare is like comparing Pat Knight to Bill Self

Congrats Trevor!

I know a kid out of Houston area who is a top prospect and listed on the ESPN ranking. He loves to shoot 3 pointers. I did a shot graph on him once. He attempted about nine 3's and made 1 or 2. My personal theory is that a three is like a dunk. Thru all the hoopla, it disguises your weaknesses. All the people remember are the one or two 3's he hit in that game. Another example is the kid on Baylor's team, Duece Bello. All everything in high school with his athletic dunks. Can dunk the ball 101 ways but can't shoot a jumper. Sitting his butt on the bench now. Ya gotta get the fundamentals down. Unless you're shooting 40% plus, you ain't no 3 point shooter. Anything less and you're probably hurting your team. [/quote]Anyone shooting 1/9 from behind the arc needs a seat beside the coach or at the very least be learning how to set pics. [/quote]My exact sentiments ;)

not sure.

Boutee has won titles and championships, you can't argue with this. Championships are not guaranteed just because you have a 6'9" post player. You need to have the pieces  or puzzle in place as well. English is a good coach but no State championship (s) compare.

My youngest son dunked for the first time last week. I would have preferred he use the moment to shoot a mid range jumper.

I gave up coaching after the 2010 season. You noticed the program got better too ;)

My tops are in unranked order & ready for the next level: Ken Coleman-Memorial Ira Brooks-Silsbee Clay Davis-Hardin-Jefferson Passion, knowledge, and know what the heck they are doing ;)

Hey PoppaBear, I need VIP seating for Tuesday nights big game....got any pull in Sour Lake, Texas?? 8) [/quote] No need to ask a common fella like PoppaBear for assistance when it is so easy for you to just make that call to Austin.  I never realized that someone in the UIL could dictate seating arrangements at a game. [/quote]Hmmm! Now some of us are in the know about UIL, HJ, and their players in the past. ;)

[quote name="lefty3162" post="1167628" timestamp="1327809698"] Mack I have always wondered why coaches have never taken care of catchers like they do pitchers.The way I see it catchers throw as many pitches as the pitchers do,But they have to throw them from their knees. [/quote]I bet I know why. Most coaches' sons don't catch, they pitch, right?
