Little Cypress-Mauriceville 64 Silsbee 88/FINAL
TxHoops replied to WOSgrad's topic in High School Boys Basketball
Most 7th graders do continue to grow. I know of two who were always too short and told they couldn’t - Sahvir wheeler and Braelon Bush. Both were/are starters at D1 schools as freshmen, despite being undersized. I’m not putting that kind of hype on this kid yet, but I CAN tell you he is an elite ball handler, passer and shooter right now. On an elite varsity skill level. In fact, he’s probably as good as they’ve got in that school district right now as a 7th grader. But I will agree if he gets taller, bigger, and stronger it will take him to another level. -

That definitely happened against Lumberton. I wasn’t aware Mitchell was coaching the 7th grade team. But they definitely ran a triangle and 2 against him and tried to deny him the ball. -
I like Abbott but I think he’s done. Crenshaw runs on the Rs posturing for a national run (which I’m all for). Matthew McCon (however your spell that name) is rumored on the D side but I can’t imagine why he would want to trade in the life he has for the headaches of Governor of Texas. And I’m not sure anyone could beat Crenshaw. He’s as good as we’ve got in this state.

Science is a tough concept to get through the tin foil hat...

I thought I did when I quoted LRF’s post. That is a premise that has a ton of support, but hasn’t been proven with absolute certainty. So AGAIN, while many understand the difference, not sure you do. And not everything is liberal and conservative. Some of it is apolitical. But the low information folks on BOTH sides have trouble grasping that too.
-
You are changing the narrative. Every time it gets really cold, you post something about global warming. Which indicates you don’t understand how climate change works. So you either do or you don’t. LRF understands the difference. I’m not sure you do.

Ding ding ding - we have the correct answer. But it does appear “some” are saying it.
-
You’re right about Paris too. No pushover.

Oh didn’t know they were doing it that way. So definitely favors Yates. I would say the best three teams in the classification are FF, Argyle and Carter in no particular order. If Yates doesn’t have to face any of them until the Finals, sets up a much easier path for the Lions.
-
Won’t affect Yates. Good news is it looks like you guys will have a cake walk to the Final 4. Bad news is once there, you’re probably at best the 3rd best team there Depending on the draw, could make it to the title game though.
-
Oh it is absolutely true. It was a conscious decision to compete with the DFW districts who have been playing fast and loose with the rules for years.
-
Their districts sure did. Although from what I heard, Hooohead is partly wrong. Huffman definitely voted against the kid being able to play for the school in the district where he has lived for some time (in one of the most chicken feces votes I’ve ever heard of by a DEC). My understanding is HJ voted to let the kid play. But I’m sure you’re right that the coaches weren’t the ones who were actually voting.
-
By all accounts on here from folks who were actually there (and I know and trust ST413), trying to compare this with the brawl at the Bear Cave a few years ago seems more than a stretch. I’m not sure why some would seem so eager to see some kids’ seasons ended. I hated it when it happened back then, although I understood it.
-
Are you trying to say that actually being at the game, really close to the action, is more reliable than what someone else “heard”?
-
That’s fine. Check your PMs though.
-
I did not. Didn’t attend HS in SETX.

Up to you.

He may be talking about first round matchup.

They are selling tickets online only, but HH creates a super spreader by storming the court after winning a seeding game. Geez Falcons, act like you’ve been there before.
-
Only down 3 after that bad of a start...let’s get it going Hawks!
-
Sure. I will take that even though I don’t like betting against my rooting interests. Pulling for Ned but think GCM wins.

Don’t hold your breath. Seriously. You’re too young to leave this earth.

Yes they did.
