They will be very good.  I wouldn't be surprised to see a split with Silsbee again this year.  Saladin, Roberts, and Parquet should all be 1st team all district-types.  Need Roberts to stay healthy th

no idea whether that applies to HS.  I think he went to Marshall.  I know he was voted team MVP on his 8th grade team.  Name is Clayton Carpenter.  Great kid from a great family.  Like you mentioned,

No way they could be the favorite playing against a club that won't lose a district game for the next five years. I think the pre season TABC poll has them picked 3rd in the district.

If I'm not mistaken HJ has a freshman this year that looked to be about 6'5" when I saw him in the stands at a game last year as an 8th grader.  Believe he has to sit this year due to transferring, but looked like he needed to fill out a little anyway before being ready for varsity ball.  Nash, am i correct?  This kid exists, right?  Or did I dream him up out of wishful thinking?

I think I know who you are talking about.  His brother was playing JV for HJ last year.  He went to school in Beaumont last year.  If it IS who I think it is, he is going to be a very good one.  He was every bit of 6'5" as an 8th grader and has a very good mid range shot.

pretty sure he was at another school and transferred in, and has to sit a season.  Could be wrong

Great kid! I've known the family for years also and he will be a pleasure to coach for Coach Davis.
