scoopno1 Posted August 22, 2015 Report Posted August 22, 2015 That really hurts....to lose Brooks. I think Thomas will be a good one. I would think you could also see Michael McCain or possibly even Barnes at running back if they need them. Silsbee will be all right. I hated to miss the scrimmage tonight but needed to see Kountze. Injuries can be a huge factor in a season. BADSANTA 1 Quote
ST413 Posted August 22, 2015 Report Posted August 22, 2015 wow really hate to see an injury like that in anytime but especially in a scrimmage! prepballfan 1 Quote
Silsbee92 Posted August 22, 2015 Report Posted August 22, 2015 Glad the QB getting some shine, I know talent when i see it, should've been the main QB last yr. To be fair about it...Don't believe I heard anybody say Thomas wasn't a great athlete at any point last year. Dontre has put in some serious work to improve his passing ability (which was not even close to where it is now) which only make his running prowess even more dangerous. He has shown the dedication and will to improve. Respect.Good size young man with extreme lower body balance and strength. Will be tough to contain. Mr. Buddy Garrity, One4All and BADSANTA 3 Quote
JRidge Posted August 22, 2015 Report Posted August 22, 2015 I don't know how Silsbee looked in their 1st scrimmage but they are a pretty solid team. I hope the young men who left with injuries will be ok. Silsbee should make some noise in their district. As for Ozen, well their defense struggled and has to improve greatly. This is a new defense from last year but they simply got out played. I expect after some film study and tough week of practice they will be just fine. As for the offense, QB Josh Boyd will be tough to handle passing and especially running. RB Calvin Tyler is quick, fast and strong and looked good tonight. All and all the Panthers should be fine after a few adjustments. prepballfan 1 Quote

BADSANTA Posted August 22, 2015 Report Posted August 22, 2015 Breaks my heart to hear Brooks may have torn an ACL. I was looking for him to have a monster season. I hope he gets a speedy recovery. I hope A. THOMAS is ok as well. Quote
BADSANTA Posted August 22, 2015 Report Posted August 22, 2015 I have heard Dontre Thomas is light years better now vs last year. I still don't know why he wasn't starting last year. Bad move on the coaches to split last season. Quote
Gasilla Posted August 22, 2015 Report Posted August 22, 2015 if he has improved that much then that's probably the reason he wasn't starting last yr. apparently, it Wes's good motivation for him to put in the work and get better (which he has according to most).prayers for Brooks. I hate to hear that. JRidge 1 Quote
PrettyBoi10 Posted August 22, 2015 Report Posted August 22, 2015 (edited) Spoke to Brooks his knee sore but he is able to walking and put pressure on it MRI will be done Monday AM Edited August 22, 2015 by PrettyBoi10 Quote
BADSANTA Posted August 22, 2015 Report Posted August 22, 2015 That's good to hear. Hopefully he is ok Quote
BLUEDOVE3 Posted August 23, 2015 Report Posted August 23, 2015 Well, I would've stayed, but Silsbee has a silly policy... They send the sub varsity teams to the bus and send them home. They can't even stay to watch the varsity teams. You figure they'd want team support..Maybe all their buses were being used and they had a shortage of buses that night. BMTSoulja1 1 Quote
Mr. Buddy Garrity Posted August 23, 2015 Report Posted August 23, 2015 Maybe all their buses were being used and they had a shortage of buses that night. that S on the maroon Superman cape you own stands for Silsbee I see, I knew something was up. BMTSoulja1 1 Quote

AggiesAreWe Posted August 23, 2015 Report Posted August 23, 2015 It'll take some getting used to, I guess...It only happens at the scrimmages when all 3 teams play. 9th and JV will play on a different night than varsity so there is no real issue.Basketball, 9th and JV stay for varsity game. Quote

ST413 Posted August 23, 2015 Report Posted August 23, 2015 I am sure the coaches don't want that many players running around pretty much unsupervised, while there attention is on the field. A little easier with a smaller number in the gym. Quote
prepballfan Posted August 23, 2015 Report Posted August 23, 2015 Silsbee QB Dontre' Thomas highlights from last night's scrimmage: This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up Wow he is impressive. Looks like it may be a great year to be a Tiger Quote

ST413 Posted August 23, 2015 Report Posted August 23, 2015 But if theor parents are there to release them, there shouldn't have been a problem...true but I bet there was a large number whose parents weren't there unfortunately! BADSANTA 1 Quote
BMTSoulja1 Posted August 23, 2015 Report Posted August 23, 2015 true but I bet there was a large number whose parents weren't there unfortunately!Maybe so. But it seem that there were a lot of us parents in the stands.... Quote
scoopno1 Posted August 23, 2015 Report Posted August 23, 2015 I watched Silsbee last year. Sometimes I saw Partain playing quarterback and thought why don't they have Thomas in there and other times I saw Thomas playing and thought why don't they have Partain in there. They were pretty equal. Patron was a better passer and Thomas was the better runner. Unfortunately Silsbee was not very good and neither of them looked very good. Last spring when Partain was injured and it appeared he would not play this year. Thomas went to work. He lost weight, got stronger and came back ready to play. Now he looks really good. Patron would have improved too if he had been able to play. They are both excellent athletes and excellent young men. I hate to see people speaking negatively about either one of them. Hopefully Partain will get healthy and make his name in baseball or return for a senior season in football. This is Thomas senior season and I for one am hoping he makes the most out of it.

Partain was definitely the better passer last year but the offense lacked the spark that Dontre provided.i have and seen remarks online all summer from Dontre getting his guys together to workout. Very proud of the effort they have put in. Hopefully it pays off this season. I know seeing Dontre on the basketball court this summer, he seems to be in the best physical shape I have seen him in. Way to be a leader and good luck this season. Quote
ST413 Posted August 24, 2015 Report Posted August 24, 2015 Maybe so. But it seem that there were a lot of us parents in the stands....I am sure there were a lot there but I bet there was a fair amount that couldn't make it as well. I would think that maybe those with parents there could have been an exception. Quote
