    It just depends on what you like to watch. I like to watch a team ,that is matched up even and play good def. and a good half court off. Small School.. But I understand that some like to watch a Team run up and down with dunks and alleys with very little def. 4 and 5a....

    Don't forget Steve Nash, Tony Parker, Joe Dumars & John Stockman.

  23. Lamar QB Prewitt to stop playing for medical reasons

    Doug Prewitt comes from a family of classy people.  I've know him and his family for over 12 yrs, and I'd expect nothing less than a class act from Doug.  What an example for others to emulate.  I, too, was a little shocked to hear he was trying to walk-on initially, but then it all made sense.  Here's a smaller than average D1 football player who's overachieving.  He's always been that way.  Lamar's coaching staff was lucky to have been around somebody of Doug's caliber, and the team will benefit from him continuing to stay in the program in a different capacity.  Ever notice who mops up the sweat at LU's basketball games?...Doug.  And he does it with a smile.  What a great young man!  He'll do anything for the benefit of the team, his university, or those around him.  I wish him continued success, and I expect we'll hear even greater things from his achievements.

    I'm confident that in 1989, the 3A state champs, who I think went 36-0, could have whooped up on more than a few 5A teams.  They had a center named Shaquille O'Neal.  I think they went 35-1 his junior year when they were still in 2A.  Either way, when he played, there was basically one play...throw it high into the middle and let the big guy do this thing.  Seemed to work.
