Yes Lane should be close to the top 5 if not in it. The Tigers will be fine next year. We will just miss those two trees inside not much height to replace them.
Every coach should be confident but making a statement like that in public especially at what might as well be considered the opposing teams home is questionable.

[/quote] Id be willing to bet all my money that this game is goining to happen!! [/quote] It would be huge if it doesn't just saying it isn't set yet.

From what I hear, it's going to be a war.[/font] [/quote] It really amazes me to hear a coach say this after seeing the Tigers. I hope we can get out of our late game slumps the last couple of games, I would love to see the Tigers flip flop this prediction.

I have a hard time seeing the Tigers getting beat by 15 by any AAA team unless we have bad foul troubles. With that being said we better come to play and get some balanced scoring.
Silsbee is 8 maybe 9 deep. 9 may be stretching it. I can't see Rudder winning by 15 but I haven't seen them play. The Tiger's need to pick their level of play back up a little.
The Tigers will have to play well and be more balanced. They need take care of the boards and make some better shot ecisions late in the game if it stays close. I think their shooting will be thrown off a little by our height if we stay in their face. I feel like thetigers can hold their own in a fast paced game if they make their shots and not blow the easy ones.
I have heard all of the hype, now I see that they play their first playoff game tomorrow against Sterling. I am off. I realise that it will not be close, but is it worth the drive to 610 and 290 just to see Yates in person?
Definately Tigers need to start playing better ball. I don't like seeing one player score half the points. We are a lot bertter team when the scoring is more balanced.
