Whatever strategy that works to put you in the position for a favorable out come.

I got Nederland by 10 next time they face off.

BU is very athletic that can cover a lot of court. That half court trap was deadly along with the full court press. And to think how young they are is crazy! They may win State 2 out of the next 3 years. It's going to take a special team to beat them. And if they are hitting their outside shot, nobody will beat them. Last night they were not hitting the outside shot and could have beat Nederland by 60. Nederland's guards were very timid and way over matched! Any team that is athletic that can apply full court pressure will give Nederland problems. But no team will be as athletic as BU along with the length. These kid's will be studs by the time they are Seniors. That freshman looks like a Senior now. I was very impressed by BU and can't wait to see them play someone to see how good they really are. I will be at their playoff games. Then you throw in a proven coach like Green this team is scary good! If they stay in this district they may not lose a game the next 4 years. These kid's are really good and I'm sure watching them on a regular basis is pretty fun.

You say that like the 'Neighborhood' dont got talent....Where you think thoes big time programs get their kids from. I was just having a conversation on another topic about this...Katy stays going into Missouri City/Alief and getting thoes athletes or even North Shore getting the kids out of Kashmier Gardens

Before the new zoning rules, a lot of Brook's talent was zoned to go to Central and Ozen. That's a big reason why the Bruins were so dominant in the 2000s and 2010s.

I will admit those kids were talented. I knew they would drop off because of graduations and BISD's "new zoning" rules. I'm not a big WB fan. You can have all the talent in the world and not know what to do with it. He is better than the last coach. They deserve the credit as well as the blame.

Actually not a bad score for Silsbee considering the opponent. 

Manvel is not a slouch team. They have one of the top programs in the state. Playing them is like playing North Shore. Remember BU didn't come in at the top spot in district also. They did show improvement from last year with a lot of underclassmen playing. Congrats to the players for their season. We look for even more success next year.

If there are any returners that were among the players who refused to go in the game, they would not be part of my program going forward. TBH,  they wouldn’t  have continued to wear the Jersey on the sideline. Send them straight to the lockeroom, and if their parents were there, send them home. Those type of individuals are what keeps a program from taking another step forward. As a teammate, I don’t even have to say what should happen to them, y’all already know how y’all would handle it. I don’t even have a connection to this team, with the exception of being district mates, but this has been eating at me all night, Bc there are kids and coaches who bust their ass every day during off season, during the season, to get the opportunity to play in a playoff game, and they never reach that goal, and then these kids are scared of a challenge and don’t appreciate the gift, the opportunity that they have earned, and I’m sure they worked hard to get there too, but they will have to live with that the rest of their lives, every time they look in the mirror, or drive by a stadium, or run into old teammates 20 years from now. It will always be with them, and deservedly so. Congrats on a great, historical season United, that community should be proud of y’all! See y’all next year!

All the above

Ok I have been lurking for sometime and am fairly knew to the Winnie area.  My job transfers me about every 4 years so my kids know what it is like to have to change schools.  But when I got transferred to Port Arthur my wife and I decided that the best school for our kids was East Chambers  When you work in the plants or in a town that works near the plants you will have a better choice of athletes than if you are in the middle of the piney woods it is simple economics people move from places without jobs to places with jobs.  To think that a high school team has to have the same genepool for 50 years is just insane.     
My wife and I both grew up in Big Football towns of the 90's Freer and Refugio respectively and have fallen for this East Chambers Team.  First I have met some of these kids and the way you talk about these kids here is disrespectful.  That kid you are mad is faster than your team is one of the most respectful and liked kid in the high school.  The kid they had at Quarterback last year who broke his ankle against HF was the same.  I have seen this QB now grow from a Freshman that fought like hell against Grandview and had them on the ropes in the first half.  These kids wont be kids for long and it sounds like some of you need to stop being miserable and enjoy the gift that is Texas Football.  Trust me I have been all over and nothing beats 2A-4A Texas football.  To say that EC has not played anybody is not fair either.  They beat 3 4A schools in a row schools that have enrollment almost 50% higher.  Are you a coach?  Do you know how hard it is to schedule someone pre-district when you are a good team.  They had West Rusk on the schedule who is probably a better team that than anyone in the district but that was cancelled due to a hurricane.  A good portion of these kids are also still living in houses that had damage from the horrible flood last two years in Winnie.  Be the bigger man and just enjoy this team.  This Coach is not like some Coaches that will purposely run up the score.  Buna if you are mad stop them from scoring.  I mean the second team offence was in half of the game.  How is this fair to East Chambers they will have to be prepared to play full games in the playoffs.  Do you think the coach in Refugio who had a National stroy written about him takes his players out?  Does he go to State year after Year?        And I am just a Band Parent        

Ppl love to hate on WOS til that beating happens. Lol

Watched the Yoakum vs McGregor game and Yoakum will be by far the best team East Chambers has faced all season long.  They have speed and size and played in a tough district.  This should be a great game this week EC3 will have to have a solid outing and the Sophomore QB is going to have to add some this week as well.  Every week gets tougher in the Playoffs.  

EC has a solid team. They played a weak schedule, BUT when your good your good lol

I'm a believer that when you win, you keep your nose down and when you lose you keep your head up. Woodville had a very impressive offensive line that gave the QB time to throw most of the time. The QB had a good arm and the receivers had several impressive catches. Clean up the fumbles, interceptions and it's a close game. Keep your heads up Woodville because there was some definitely good talent on the field and if you can clean that up, I think you can make a good run in the play offs !!!! 

I've never seen Galena Park but I have seen Galena Park North Shore

I've watched enough HS football as have a lot of folks on this board to know when you see speed. 
Every game I've watched this year EC looked to have the fastest 2 kids on the field and probably 7 or 8 of the fastest 10.  
Thanks Beaumont and thanks to the rest of SETX for being so bad to make EC look so good. I'm sure that's what it is. 

It happens...get over it...I remember maybe 5 or 6 years ago a kid who didnt live on the west side of I-10 couldn't play football for the Beaumont Bulldogs when the kids on the Northside didnt have a team in that league. Eventually a program put a team on that side of I -10 in STJFL. If a parent wants better for there kid then you do what you have to do. I could see if the kid moved his Sr year and that was the missing piece but this kid has went there for 4 years and hes been doing all this since middle school and the parents didnt want him facing the problems of his older brother that was seeming to find them in strange circumstances. Teachers move for better and Coaches also but no one complains about it. Let them go where they want. When people realize that there child isn't competing against the kid across town for a scholarship but the kid across the U.S for 1 then they would be better understanding of putting in more work to help there child achieve his or her goals. This sounds like it could be a bitter relative of a teammate speaking for the parent about there nephew....Carry On...

All this over a transfer. Transfer or no transfers EC has been running this district 

Incorrect.
I know for a fact that EC has only 1 player that moved from Beaumont to Winnie this past spring that is playing for EC. That came straight from the top.
Need to get your facts straight.

I’m pretty sure the move wasn’t for athletic reasons, so let’s move on people. If the kid had moved to one of yalls schools then there would be no issue here.

THIS!!!
All the troubles that was going on at BISD at the time, I would not blame any parent for moving out to another school district. Particularly East Chambers. EC is an awesome school district.
But, in the cases that I suspect some of you are talking about, it was family moves that brought them to EC, not athletics.
 
BTW, I believe BISD has their act together now (or at least better than it was).
