Again did y’all have the same energy when your school was doing it to other schools In SETX. Y’all must have short term memory loss or something. I done talking about it because all you guys do is cry. The real travesty will come in a few weeks when some announcement are made and I’ll be back to give my thoughts on that subject !!! And I’m typing in all caps lol

What are we teaching kids that the playing field should always be level or do we tell our kids that they need to get better in order to compete . That they need to put In the work ,get in the gym and work on your game . They don’t hand out participation trophies which is what some of you are looking for. GET IN THE GYM AND GET BETTER !!!! PERIOD!!!!! And coaches get better watch tons of film see how you can play multiple styles the game is evolving if you don’t evolve with you’ll get left behind.

Exactly.
Doakes really had no chance of becoming eligible but the folk at Yates kept telling him otherwise. Kid ended up losing his senior year.
And guess what he we still go to college .

I guess some can’t take a loss. You cry about the system that allows you to do the same thing . Quit getting on this board crying about kids transferring when it happens everywhere . Some get better players some don’t and when it doesn’t work to your advantage your crying a river . The entire UIL is made it up of well you guessed it . So how does that happen or are the kids there legit . All a coach can do is prepare his/her team to play. Your job isn’t to worry about what the other team has going on but to give your kids the confidence to play the game at a high level. Oh and kids have to get better period !!!!!!

He finished 4th in district. Slow your roll!!!
There’s always one or maybe two good ol boys who hate to see it .. Let me ask you a question HF has been to the playoffs how many times in the last 10 yrs? HJ never has a down year ..Lumberton coach is solid but the job Rideaux has done can’t be duplicated,. Even Ray Charles could see that but carry on sir ....

Wellllllll let me get the last word in before they lock the thread because that’s what the moderators are good at So your telling me all this hoopla about some jv players whipping up on kids who have varsity experience sounds really sad to me. Kids who never played varsity and would’ve been on jv at whatever school they attended this year . Cry me a river and get over it . UIL and DC found them to be in compliance so what’s the excuse now. Technically ppl move for all kinds of reasons so don’t assume these kids moved for basketball to a school with a losing history . Again Get over it and move on . Like what was said earlier HJ,Silsbee,EC, Nederland all get kids who have moved into the district regardless of family ties or whatever and y’all keep quiet about that. Doesn’t take away the face Coach Rideau has them playing outside of themselves. Grown men haters go find hobby please and quit whining on a message boards about kids.

Let this sink in BISD allowed two of its brightest young coaches Tigee Rideaux(HF) & Micheal Thomas (Temple HS) to leave the district & rebuild struggling programs . Both have made the playoffs after droughts. They were told they were too young in so many words because they would’ve able t handle kids discipline wise . Guess the jokes on them !!!! Congrats Coach Rideaux (Coach Of The Year ) & Micheal Thomas (Coach Of The Year )

Just curious Mamba. Was it coaching that lost it for HF the first time they played LC-M in district? Just asking
Well i believe HF was without their pg I could be wrong . But tonight no adjustments were made the LCM coach so losses will happen but what you after the loss says a lot
-
LCM clearly got out coached tonight and it wasn’t even close !!!!

I was actually defending Hefner. He is playing point guard for Ned which isn’t what he will play in college. I’m one of his biggest fans and he has a lot of haters in here. He is extremely unselfish and a great player. I am anxious to see how he does in college when he isn’t the focal point that other teams try to game plan their D against.
Jake I was agreeing with you lol.

Memorial always does a great job defending Hefner with several players and lots of trapping and double teams. It probably led to open threes for Gipson and some really good looks for other players. I know yalls agenda here, but I promise he had plenty to do with the win. With that being said, y’all are constantly on Hefner’s ass... how do y’all give Clover a free pass?
Hey Jake94 only someone who lacks sound basketball judgment would say something stupid about Hefner and how he plays. The causal fan will only look for stats as an effect on the game but the game is played is many different facets. Hefner is essentially the pg for Nederland he’s extremely unselfish and his iq is really good, he understands unlike others. What he does for Nederland doesn’t show up in the box score but if you watch the game then you’d know. The comparison to Colton was unfair because Colton was a monster but of course Hefner has a different mindset compared to CW. Hefner will be a better college player because of his upside,jmo. Now as for Clover I don’t know a lot of coaches who teach post play anymore because the game is for guards, stop thinking because Clover is big he’s suppose to dominate his effect on the game at this point is defensively .The way these officials officiate is terrible big kids get hacked constantly so when he gets the ball yes he’s timid the refs not gonna call it and if he plays physical their gonna penalize him . Bigs today are becoming extinct which is why you see them camped out around the 3pt line .Yes he should get some easy layups,dunks and knock down the ft line jumper but his stats should read 12p,8r,4b,3a if he can do that Memorial should be fine. Some folks need to stop looking for stats and watch the game thoroughly but then again everybody don’t know what too look for either !!!!

He is certainly up there.
Darryl "Boogaloo" McArthur was a pretty special player too. McDonald's AA and he played in the era of no three point line. Averaged 29 points his senior season and it was his career points total record whom Bush broke. Had there been a 3 line, Boog would have definitely scored more.
McArthur was unstoppable at times, just like Bush has been.
May be true but we have to go by what is current ,Bray has shattered the record and I highly doubt anyone else will break it anytime soon. And he's only 5’7 which by far is super impressive!!!!!

You guys do know it isnt that serious I mean its just basketball. They lost a couple of games I mean I love the way Silsbee players and community feels about losing ,hell they truly care unlike others. . But on to the next game fix the mistakes and win the next one thats it. What they’ve accomplished the last 4-5 years wont be duplicated for a minute this comes in cycles every 7-10 yrs or so. Hell of run cant ever complain about that. And BRAY BUSH is the best to lace em up in the uniform PERIOD!!!!!

People should not include Silsbee in this recruiting trend going on. Silsbee has been dominating SETX in basketball for a long time with SILSBEE kids. Bigger schools that Silsbee should NEVER be able to play with. It is what we do from Silsbee and people really really hate that. On all levels!!! Name me 3 BASKETBALL players that have moved to Silsbee in HIGH SCHOOL to help them win in the last 10 years.
Stop it we know who, but it’s irrelevant

Like i said if UIL. and the DC cleared them then what are y’all crying for . Go play some golf get your mind off it. Too much time and energy being devoted to kids transferring!!!!!

And your right the UIL cleared the kids so I guess that’s that. I have no problem with the kids by the way. I am happy for them. I know it’s hard to get playing time on a team at one of those bigger schools. The coaches have a tough job choosing from all the talent they have available at those schools and sometimes they miss out on a “diamond in the rough”. I’m happy The the kids get to pursue their hoop dreams. I just think the coach is getting to much credit for being a great coach when he’s really a good recruiter. And I don’t think public schools are the place for recruiting athletes
So private schools can recruit but not public ..loll... ahhh ok ...For the last time these kids would’ve been on soph or jv at either Bmt school. For them to play on a varsity team not knowing how this would turn out is a testament to the coach . Stop trying to undermine what he’s done , he’s developed those kids I know every last one of the kids in question his teaching has taken their game to a whole other level. It’s a ton of coaches who dont develop these kids just roll the ball out and say play. HF was dormant ,a black hole couldn’t keep a coach now they have one and ppl crying about transfers because they had HF as an easy win which is no more lace em up and get ready to play because they are coming whether some like it or not!!!!

Hey what did UIL or the DC say about the kids who transferred in ?
-
Just now, Setx fan said:
I wasn’t aware that ever happened at Silsbee or HJ. I do have an idea about EC. They had 2 or 3 transfers last year and I believe they were all related and their family had ties to EC. That doesn’t stick out as recruitment to me. Just seems like EC benefited from legitimate transfers. Those things happen sometimes especially at schools that have a winning traditions
Like what you did there, its ok .smh. Moving the goalposts I see, its cool keep telling yourselves that its fine if they have “family ties” lol...

Every school has transfers once in a while and of course a lot of schools benefit from transfers. But there’s a difference between benefitting from transfers and actively recruiting transfers. I could be wrong but I’m not aware of any other schools in the area who have had 4 transfers in the same year. If you know any then enlighten me.
Silsbee,Hj,East Chambers

It’s unfair to hometown kids who don’t get to rep their community because the coach has recruited a roster full of selects
Yea the same community who didnt show up when they were getting it handed to them. 3-4 guys come in and here comes the whining ,ask the other kids outside of the transfers do they want to go back to the ways of old. It’d be a resounding NO!

Coaches don’t recruit players ..Players recruit players . Like i said you may not have gotten the better players but you have gotten players that help you win nothing gets said about the SETX schools that have done it and won.
