Just hate he won't be able to cap this great accomplishment off  with a state championship

That sounds about right but only time will tell cause after seeing Morton Ranch and Dickenson 1 of those 2.may have something else to say about that and you cant count Summer Creek or Atascacita out...

I've been repeating this all year.  There is NO reason this team shouldn't come out of the region.  We'll  learn a lot about this team during the Allen tournament...

Witch they should they ain't #2 6A for nothing lol

United would beat a full Silsbee squad by 20

TABC really ticking me off this year.   The Girls rankings are a Joke.  

Girls 
#6 Humble Summer Creek 64
Beaumont United 71
Final...
Now time for the boys to complete the sweep....

Summer Creek - 10
United  - 22
End of the 1st Period 

Yea we’re talking about a team (United) with players from the neighborhood against Monteverde (who recruits best players in the nation) of course they’re suppose to win.

Looks like Westbrook’s plan didn’t work to go D2...smh 

Didn't plan on getting knocked in the 2nd round....Karma took its course and the season is history....You play to win every game you play if possible and learn from the losses....its called Life...

Man I love this point of view. I never really thought of it like that but it makes so much sense, to start at the lower level and that’s where you build the foundation. The kids at North Shore just looked bigger, and it was crazy because I know the kids at Brook work out hard everyday. But the nutrition part makes a lot of sense. 

great take 

I understand the whole transfer thing ppl rag on, but i hate to say it but here it is: if you build it they will come. 
 
Just look at New Caney ISD football teams now for example, it wasn't like that just several years ago. 
 
 

Enrollment numbers, transfers, and coaching.
It is amazing that year after year, Katy ends up with an OL standing 6'4" - 6'6" and weighing 275 lbs. - 300 lbs.  Year in and year out, Katy seems to find a RB or two that can play D1 football.  The move-in program at Katy is second to none.  NS is similar.  My sister-in-law teaches at NS.  Enrollment of 4,000+ kids and then the Mustangs sprinkle in 1 or 2 move-ins and transfers.  Add good coaching to those ingredients and voila, you have a perennial top-notch program.  Those programs have resources.  They have athletes, money, facilities, solid coaching, and a commitment to staying on top.
Go Indians.  Peace.

Pear orchard eluded to this as well but I ve seen it first hand.  I ve coached at laporte east chambers and bmt(hs and middle). Your middle school is where the foundation and attitude is set for your program.  The involvement the high school coaches have at la porte and ec in the junior high programs is by far more involved than bmt. It’s not even close.  And not just in season but offseason as well.
at la porte and ec middle schools they had a work out program just like and as intense as the high schools.  Bmt middle schools are a joke.  If they even touch weights it’s more of just an introduction to it and that s it. Also the middle school Athletic facilities And lack of weights are not conducive to a winning program.
i was taken back when I first started coaching here after being at la porte and ec.
bmt middle schools do not have a true Athletic period where all the coaches are in the period. It’s usually just two.
at Laporte a def and off coach would come at least once a week to a ms practice. At ec most of the hs coaches were at every jh practice for the 1st hr.
wb has some elite talent in certain areas but what I think is the difference between wb and say Allen, Duncanville , ns, Katy. Are all other positions.  They may not be elite and getting 10-20 d1 offers but they get offers unlike wb whether it be fbs, div2 div 3 or jc.
If you take just starters on def and off for ns and wb. Who would have the most kids offered?
when I first came to bmt and saw the lack of organization in middle school athletics I  talked to the AD as well as the head coaches about ways to improve this area. And theY knew this already but acted as if their hands were tied (and they may be) but they need to press the issue with admin and keep pressing but really to get answers and change the parents have to get involved.
also the middle school coaches need to go to coaching clinics. Some not all don’t have a clue in even how to run a drill much less a practice or program.  Main reason I got out of coaching as well as I was spending more time with other people s kids than my own.
my 2 cents
 

Soooo.......I haven't posted in a while..lol. But this topic sparks my interest TREMENDOUSLY. I work with people from all over east and s.e. tx. Many of which played for some of these powerhouses. I just had this conversation with a guy who played rb for Westfield back in the mid to late 2000's when they were a dominant team in Houston before Dekaney opened. I asked this VERY SAME question. He said it was their ATTITUDE. They vowed to not lose at home and to not lose to any Houston schools. He also said that that attitude starts on the middle school level and that the hs coaches frequently visited and passed down the playbook to them BEFORE they got to hs. 
They were also very committed to lifting weights throughout the offseason. I asked about supplements. He said they didn't take any. I do believe most of the powerhouse teams that can afford it have nutritional coaches on staff and a budget for supplies to give their kids an edge physically. Bigger, faster, and stronger still works. Couple that with a coaching staff that knows what it takes and oh boy....
My assessment: Their kids are bigger, tougher, meaner, more experienced, more determined, more committed, and therefore more confident than ours...... hands down. It's one thing to beat up on undermanned, undersized, and outnumbered ozen and central for all of these years and feel good and satisfied about it. It's a whole 'nother thing to take on the state's best and see where you really stand. It humbles you. 
I do believe that wb is on the right track though, but are still quite a ways behind as far as everything it takes to be on that level. Hopefully the experience from last year and this year propels them closer. IMHO...😉

I will say this, #2 and #12 for West Brook could play for North Shore as starters.

Sure it takes good coaching, but there are many other things.  Tradition is often overlooked.  It brings the kids buying in and fan support.  WB was fortunate enough to start off with a great Coach who won State & started tradition.  The Mid-County schools have had winning traditions, and tons of fan support, forever.  What has South & North Bmt had?  SP & French - Ozen & Central - now BU.  Kids probably have trouble remembering what school they are at.  Hopefully though, they’ll come together and build tradition, despite the obstacles.

I’d be shocked if he came back at all. He’s not even fully healed yet, not to mention out of shape. 

Yeah good luck with that! Keep that same energy this time next week.

Not just for athletic purposes, but we have get our kids back in school so they can get back on their normal routine...

I’m not gonna say I’m surprised with United 180 change. I just knew it was going to be kind of be difficult the first year for the kids from different parts of town coming together to gel...
and the crazy part is some of the best athletes at United aren’t even playing but I’m pretty sure they’re noticing and may be more willing to join the team now that it’s becoming appealing. 
God job wolves
