Beaumont United 106 Silsbee 57/FINAL

30.  United is that good.  But the good news for Silsbee is that this is as rough as it will get.  We're playing the 3rd ranked 6A team which has a shot at the championship and has size and speed and talent.  They could handle any 4A team.  We won't face anything worse than this even in the holiday tournaments.  This is like being in the ondeck circle swinging a bat with two donuts on it.

It's probably a good year to be rebuilding because nobody is getting past basketball magnet school Yates in Region III.  The goal will be to get back to the region tourney.  If the Tigers can do that it will have to be called a great season.  It's a long shot but possible.  And if they do make it that far they will end up playing only one less game than the fully loaded Tigers of last year.

Getting there could end up meaning playing the same number of games as we wouldn’t face Yates until the finals.  But that won’t be an easy task.

BU 1 Tigers 0 BU missed 2 dunks 

The Tiger Cubs were just too pesky and didn't give the Wolves any real good chances.  

The team on the floor tonight was the smallest Silsbee varsity I've ever seen at any point in the last 25 years, with or without the football kids.  They really did look like the Tiger cubs.  They are hard workers though and that makes up for a lot.

I believe Silsbee is a regional tournament team and will be in Huntsville in early March

Have you seen anything this season that leads you to believe this? Is the region down significantly from years past? Just curious to get your opinion. For the Tigers to make the regional tournament they would need to be as good as last years club or the region would need to regress. I haven’t seen a lot of the region 3 4A clubs so I don’t have any idea who may make the 4A tournament with the exception of Yates. It does look like Huffman is going to be a lot better than I thought they would be.

First of all, I definitely wouldn't base Silsbee off of what they are putting on the floor right now. They will get significantly better by district time. Silsbee doesn't necessarily need to be as good as last year's team to make regionals. Remember, they blew everyone out heading into the regional tourney.

Other than Yates (a gimme) the other teams in the region would be La Marque, Connally, H-J, Huffman, Hudson and Wax Life. Silsbee Ultra Lite has already played La Marque and lost by 4.

Key for Silsbee and H-J is to be the #1 seed. That way you avoid Yates in the 3rd round and would not see them till regional final.

    • Meh.. Everyone knows this. The kid that got injured wasn't lifting weights. Supposedly he was hit with a helmet in his elbow. In my opinion the kid shouldn't have been put in that situation. AD should've told the Varsity baseball players to sit that one out. I have no issues with the lifting or conditioning. However, anytime helmets/pads are on there is a higher risk of injury. This AD showed a total lack of respect for HIS baseball program. 
    • Maybe.. however..  Many athletic director / head football coach have lost their job despite the athletic program as a whole being successful.. if the football team struggles.  On the other hand, when football teams are doing great but the rest of the program stinks.. AD/HFC still keeps their job. WOS.  Newton. .. programs as a whole were fairly weak during those many years of football power and very few people even knew it.  Or cared. Yet, AD/HFC kept their jobs for years. Meanwhile, I remember an AD/HFC at Barbers Hill lost his job after every program in the school won district championships and even had several team sports (baseball, softball, girls hoops, etc.) making runs at state.  But the football team was mediocre.  Fired. I'm not saying you're wrong, just that perception is reality.  And the perception is that your athletic program can suck as long as football wins.. it doesn't matter how strong the athletic program is if football sucks.

    • Baseball mafia can cry all they want but when the talent isn’t there it ain’t there lol
    • It's only a matter of time before the baseball mafia starts greasing the tracks to run Crumedy out of town. It'll be a dang shame too, but mark my words.
