McClure is on a different level.  The Co-Offensive MVPs last year was like giving Larry Bird and Jerry Sichting Co-MVPs...

Yea, Silsbee is in trouble...

I don’t know about that but I stand by my earlier prediction that LCM has a better chance of missing the playoffs than winning the district.   I do think Lumberton can challenge Silsbee based on McClu

I feel certain Silsbee will make the playoffs, as the outright winner, or runner up.  Maybe even third.   All that remains to be played out.   What's at stake is who plays the better teams in the other districts first in the playoffs.  I kinda know how playoff seeding works, but I don't have it down pat. .  

District games should be interesting for a change.  Fans in Lumberton, LCM and Bridge City are getting fired up.  Fans in Silsbee stay lit.

That’s the problem, the other district will be bringing HF, HH or HJ in the first round of the playoffs. Better get that first spot and try your luck with Livingston. That makes it all the more interesting this season, it’s a battle for 1st place and the rest go home early. Silsbee vs errbody imo, maybe Ltown has a chance if their stud plays balls out.

I’m pretty sure that’s frowned upon...

Winning in the 1st round of the playoffs is alright. It is much better than not winning the first round that's for sure. A certain 1st round loss comes to mind.  Still,  it gets old. To really make some noise, so to speak, a team needs to upset a known good opponent.   I really want to know: just how good is HH?  Are they good enough to get past Yates and go to state?

Idk about that but they are undefeated to this point and I think they will win their district. Harvey seems like a pretty good player, the best individual baller in that district and would probably be the best in ours too. Is he a better talent than the Lumberton kid?

I saw Huffman vs. Yates in Kingwood last season, or was it the season before? Huffman had this player that could shoot from the perimeter lights out. I'm guessing that was Harvey. I think he was a sophomore then, so he should be a Sr. now.  His shooting kept HH in the game in the first half but Yates press and traps wore him down and he didn't shoot as well down the stretch.  Can Yates new players run and play defense like they have in the past?  With no show cases, and tournaments it is harder to tell.  I sat next to some Huffman students.  They were some nice young men.

Yea that’s got to be Harvey, Sr now crazy good shooter. I heard Yates is not what they were the past few seasons but idk I’m sure they are still more than a handful for anybody from around here.

      I'm going to agree with this. Individual drills would be fine, but a varsity baseball player should not be involved in full pad practices during the baseball season. Especially, if he is a contributing player on a playoff bound baseball team. This is irresponsible and selfish of the AD/HFC.

      If there's a specific situation that started this thread, I don't know the details.  Nor do I care.  But I do have an opinion about what I'm gathering from some of the comments. My opinion: I do believe that an AD should leave the players of a particular sport to their respective head coach during that season.  The varsity players of that sport anyway.  I believe it's a little different concerning the sub varsity players of that sport.  If an AD/HFC decides to grab some JV baseball players for some offseason football stuff during the athletics period, I don't have AS MUCH of a problem with it.  I would still consider it a common courtesy to discuss with the head coach of that particular sport to consider their thoughts on it. I also believe that ALL athletes should be lifting and running all year.  When in a particular season, I believe that the head coach of that sport should control the reigns on that topic to implement some sport specific lifting/running during their season.  But all athletes should be in the weight room year round. As far as playing multiple sports?  I'm an advocate.  I know that the popular idea is for potentially good/great players in a specific sport to "focus" on that sport.  And I agree.. but focusing on one sport doesn't mean stopping the others.  It just means prioritizing time in a way that extra work is put into that specific sport.  After hours, weekends, holidays/summer, etc..  Just because you plan on making a push into college baseball (for example) doesn't mean you can't work on baseball during other sports seasons.  That's exactly what I did.. and countless others.  Plus, it's important to maybe learn how to be a role player in a sport that you're not the best at.  Because that's coming. That's my opinion.  And I come from an era where kids played multiple sports if they knew it would be helping.  Helping their classmates.. or just contributing to school pride.  I hate knowing that there are schools that could be much more competitive if their kids would just come out.  It's hard for me to understand if I'm being honest.

      What has happened to Jasper?

      I wasn't arguing the point of how an AD keeps his job. The question was "what has happened to Jasper" as in their whole athletic department. They were much much better in those other sports even when football was successful. Not anymore. Something definitely has changed.

      I just don't think it's as big an issue as what's being discussed. My opinion.
