People laughed at me last yr when I said Anthony Jones was a hindrance to them last year. How can a 6'10" "high" D1 be a hindrance? Look at them now........MUCH better team.

yes, Ozen COULD beat Jones, but that would be a minor upset. Jones is very good. Wheatley will fall to Yates by 15-20 points (105-88). Yates will increase their lead as the game winds down, will the memory of last yr's meltdown SEARED into their minds. They could win by 25-30 even. Yates vs Wheatley will be played at Aldine's Campbell Center (sort of a pre-5A regional venue) WEDNESDAY night 8:00 pm. Ozen, if getting past Jones -- and that is UNlikely -- Yates will beat them by a little less than the Wheatley margin. Of course, games are decided on the court yadda yadda.... ....and with Ozen graduating 4 starters and Yates graduating only a couple on the whole squad.... ....and Greg Wise has his signature multiple full court presses that APPEAR to look the same until its too late...

such as????

" Then 5a schools like Kingwood start running their razzle dazzle." Kingwood and razzle dazzle in the same sentence?????? Kingwood runs THE MOST (boring) fundamental** bball system anywhere. The coach punishes razzle dazzle stuff. **especially DEFENSE and controlling the tempo (truly bball fundamentals). J'Covan Brown never scored a single point against Kwd in the 4th qtr of ANY game PAM ever played against Kwd.

Does Ned have anyone who can slow down the super-quick PG fro NF (Dwayne Wade)? He is the only threat from NF due to the poor coaching. Basically every half court set is Wade soloing/creating on his own.Few screens and lots of drives into the lane (often leading with a lowered shoulder without getting called for a charge). Does Ned have any shot blockers? If no one to stop this, it'll be a long night for Ned. MANY underutilized athletes on NF team.

why do you say "shafted" rather than that they simply lost to superior teams? please explain.

Actually they do have a senior class. This year is there first senior class. you got some bad info. No seniors. Not a single one in the whole school. Want proof? It's confirmed in the threads in the baseball forum when discussing 19-4A.

sorry, thought I named the school. Kingwood Park is basically a JV team (no seniors) with a .500 record. therefore should be a cakewalk for #16 state-ranked Ozen. Only risk is massive overconfidence.

against the exact same school as the Ozen girls did exactly one week earlier at the exact same location....even the exact same time.

Who do you see BH beating out for one of the 4 playoff spots? NF? (reloading/returning athletes as usual, even if losing top scorer) Crosby? (very athletic JV replaces very good 3 graduating) CE King? (whole varsity team returns) Kingwood Park? (whole varsity team returns) Galena Park? (Best player is returning but next 2 best graduate) BH must beat out two of those to make playoffs. Why won't next year be a repeat of this one?

likely 19-4A finish: 1st Crosby 2nd North Forest 3rd CE King 4th Kingwood Park better than even chance 20-4A will sweep them This was how 19-4A finished

Let's make it easier: is ANYONE predicting BH will be in the game when the 4th qtr starts? Certainly not me.

...and Jones

high scorer does not make you the best--no discipline, no teamwork, and no chemistry--this Bronco basketball team is awful--it is amazing that we won 3 games---they were better before football ended so you think they'll be better without Dugat next yr???

....NF lost five players from last years team. Their best shooter is out for the season and D-Wade is the only one back. ame: who is that? Has he played at any time during this season? Returning next yr?

please explain: IMO NF might be the worst coached team I've seen in a while with a single standout player. That's my description of beatable.

likely 19-4A finish: 1st Crosby 2nd North Forest 3rd CE King 4th Kingwood Park better than even chance 20-4A will sweep them

....and next year looks even worse: Dayton's best/high scorer/all-everything player will be gone.

bobcat (or anyone else), what I meant was that if there is a 2A team -- now you imply TWO 2A teams -- that are better than the #15 (TABC) ranked 4A team, then the 2A championship will be a cakewalk. And having seen a half dozen of the TABC-ranked 4A teams (and many 5A teams), Central is appropriately ranked by by the TABC, maybe even a tad low. If you are anywhere near correct, why aren't Kountze and Woodville ranked #1 and #2 by TABC........or any other semi-reliable rankings instead of #6 and #19???

1. Kountze 2. Central I haven't seen Kountze play this year. Have seen Central play. If this ranking is accurate, K will WALK to the 2A state championship

I sure hope he see or hear about your post and use it to inspire himself to greater heights towards success. Time's running out, don't you think? This has been an issue for MANY years. What evidence exists that he's changed one iota in all that time?

and KPark's whole team returns next year. Yikes for rest of 19-4A!

After KPark beating up on BH pretty badly at BH's home court, perhaps KPark may be peaking at right time?

I've seen JB play many a time. I've seen him T'd up many a time..........deserved every one and then some. He makes you want to cry cuz he ain't never gonna get to a major D1 school. Someone said he's not a team player. Wrong, he is when there's someone else on his team who can shoot. He's never been on such a team. I've seen him play at PAM when he was passing it off when he should've been forcing shots more often, because that gave PAM their best chance at winning. He has yet to play at a level where anyone could stop him much less slow him down. If he's not hid own worst enemy, his handlers/whisperers are. I'd call that a toss up. IMO he'll never ever play at a major D1 school. One reason: he cannot read and write. He will never qualify for acceptance to majot D1 school.

Memo to Grumpy: as to 4A: 11-4A is toughest in Texas. Sorry I expanded outside your knowledge base.
