i like the odds of one of them making it to the regional finals, but not both this year... too many good teams for them to have to go through.

congrats to both teams, and good luck in the playoffs!

wow!

how did robert get someone to marry him?  just kidding.  but seriously.

well, we know yates does whatever it takes to win.  dropping their recruiting class down to 3A will make it even easier for them to win state, so i guess i won't be surprised if they didn't appeal.

[quote name="bball2011" post="1177096" timestamp="1329159208"] OK, I heard that HJ wants to play a playoff game instead of a flip...but Silsbee doesn't and if Silsbee doesn't it would be considered a forfeit, then Hj would be considered to be the lower seed. I'm not sure how that makes since?? [/quote] don't know where you heard it, but no way this is correct.

Should Kountze be state ranked?

i think they were getting embarrassed because people were talking so much crap about them dropping down.

looks like the practice facility behind stevenash's house...

i know the png coach in passing... i'll try to get ahold of him when i get back to work monday.

tough way to lose... congrats on another solid season.

the personal attacks have to stop or i'll start handing out warnings and vacations.

rattled off three straight against TT, A&M, and K-state.  none signature wins, but all decent wins that will help come tourney time.  up to .500 in conference.

gotcha.

It's Every direction people are leaving...And there is nothing wrong with Sour lake... It's a great school... [/quote] No question about that...excellent basketball program too..I just know that BISD should never lose a basketball player to HJISD..What could you possibly gain, OTHER than being in a better basketball program, THESE days? Nothing wrong with Sour Lake...Why would a family move from Liberty to Houston to get AWAY from traffic and congestion? Makes about the same amount of sense...Westbrook is a really good school, but the basketball program is suffering...So why HJISD from BISD?....Basketball. [/quote] You need to remember that you are using YOUR values and YOUR logic and attempting to suggest that your method is what everybody else uses.  Sorry, that won't fly.  I moved to Sour Lake long before basketball was a consideration ini order to access the school district and for the benefits of semi-rural living and being on a golf course.  Basketball is not the primary reason that people are leaving the city. [/quote] So would you pass up 4 restaurants of the exact same quality, to eat at one 25 miles away just because? There is a reason for everything...Not saying that anyone is at FAULT, but you know what it is....Guys didn't just show up at Ozen either for us because of our performing arts program... ::)...Build it and they will come...not mad at you for that... ;) [/quote] comparing your kids' education and the quality of the area you live in to eating food doesn't really work.  no, i wouldn't normally pass up 4 restaurants of the same quality to eat 25 miles away, but i might if the service sucked, the food was 3 times the price, and my car might get broken into in the parking lot...

alright, gonna lock it.  second one today :)

nederland's good.  i don't think they're world beaters, but they have a good team. 

mmmkay.

enough already.

[/quote] :D I', sure HJ put in their bench players for valuable playing time. I expect them to play just as hard as JY's bench players ;) [/quote] yup, but i bet HJ's bench was playing really hard in a half-court defense and offense, and not running a press with a 2nd string that would start for most other houston schools... [/quote]Dude, it really don't matter how you try and sugar coat it, a 75 point win or a 50 point win. JY's style is to press the whole game. Thats their system. Maybe HJ's system is press and play half court. Go JY ! [s]Go HJ! [/s]  OOOPS! Got too carried away. [/quote] Dove- there you go again.  It's ok for Yates to have large margins of victory and yet you post that HJ "ran up the score" on Orangefield.  Which is it?  Or is it possibly "writers choice"? [/quote]Nah, its okay for HJ to run up scores, I have a problem with yall who *pretend* HJ ain't running up scores. JY,HJ, SHS, etc all trying to get quality minutes to their players when possible. Nothing wrong with that. [/quote] so there's no difference between the 2nd string of one team possibly extending a lead a little bit while running halfcourt sets and defenses and another 2nd string that's as good as most schools' first strings doubling a deficit through pressing?
