Umm whoa. Please give us your impressions on NW after the game AAW.

I have no doubt he does. But people apparently like his music (I didn’t even know who he was before this). And I predict he will recover. In the end, if he can sell records (or I guess if his music is downloaded in this day and age), he will land on his feet. He’s not okay now, but he will be.

Mr Wallen will be okay. There are probably more fans of that genre of music who are less offended with the use of that word (even with the hard R) than there are of criticizing a President for entering a war. Even when that war, by most accounts, ended up being a horrible decision.

I have no idea the voting protocol on the preseason predictions for the TABC. If it’s just the coaches in that district, that’s pretty bad.

I had them 2nd. BC third, OF 4th. WOS has surprised me the most. Although I should have seen it coming. Every one I know over there is high on the coach.

You have it straight and your mind is rightfully blown. Honestly there would be few, if any, 4A districts in the state where a player the caliber of McClure and a coach the caliber of Mitchell wouldn’t finish in the top 4. Maybe one in the metroplex

Livingston won 81-76 in double OT

Or you could just hold your plate near Who That. He seems pretty salty 🤣 (And you know I’m messing with you @Who That)

I’m gonna need some pepper and Louisiana hot sauce with mine...

You are AxeEm, Coach S, or is it time to change the handle again? I wish I had foreseen the Covid outbreak at Silsbee too. That’s quite a skill. But even without it, it’s still probably a push. Lumberton earned this one tonight.

You might be a top 10 updater on this site BB. Keep it up.

Congrats to the Raiders! What a job Coach Mitchell has done with that program since taking over. Love to see good things happen to good people - and Josh is as good a guy as they come. And regardless of covid, injuries, etc, those boys worked their tails off and accomplished a major goal. Hats off to Lumberton.

Coaches’ Poll

Southeast Texas officiating at its finest. When you blow an unblowable call....

What a run for Coldspring basketball. Duke graduates this year and the all time points leader, Bishop, graduated last year. Historic run for the Trojans.

Very crazy. It seemed pretty obvious that if anyone was going to challenge silsbee, it would be Lumberton.

Count me in with the “old heads” (as the kids now say). I still like someone to scan and bag my groceries. I even prefer to throw a high school kid a few bucks for loading them in my vehicle. We are steadily losing good old human interaction for the sake of “convenience.” I can’t help but wonder if that isn’t contributing to our society’s decline...

I think teams playing extremely short handed that weren’t that deep to begin with, that are back at full strength could shake things up. We shall see.

I’m not so sure about that...

They are a much better team now than they were earlier in the season. If any team could beat Yates in that region, it would be HJ. If I were betting, my money would still be on JY to win the region. But HJ is my next pick.

I have been impressed with the fight in BC both times they played the Tigers. Helps when you have a seasoned PG against that pressure.

Just so you don’t get confused, I would also be thrilled if HJ made it to regionals and/or state. I would think we would all be thrilled with his other two (United and EC). Huffman I would be thrilled if they got bounced on their ear in the first round again. That’s unlikely but a second round exit could be highly possible. Carry on...

I don’t know how accurate Badsanta’s predictions are but I would be thrilled if he nailed them all.

Scouting report I got also said he is very strong with the ball (rarely turns it over), exceptional decision making, and high basketball IQ. For a 6-5 combo guard, I would say the future is bright.
