3/11/23 United vs Lake Highlands 6a State Championship…


Recommended Posts

I’ve seen LH finally.  They’re good.  Very good.  But it’s not like we haven’t seen this kind of team.  We’ve played against a team with 6’10” kids this year.  We’ve played against teams with highly ranked players this year.  So I’m confident that our kids and coaches will find a way glad get the job done.  
 

They play good defense in the paint, and rightfully so.  But I saw some weaknesses in their perimeter defense.  
 

If we rebound well and keep them from scoring their average, we’ll sneak out another win.

Another factor that I didn’t think about is if Porchia a go for the game tonight.  I saw him hobble off the court with 3 seconds left in the game and he wasn’t in the game on that last play.  I hope the kid is ok.

A friend of mine went live and he was walking on that ankle just fine after the game.didnt look like he was getting any treatment.

I think Yates and Johnson conceals themselves out.  I need our role players to step up big, and your guy Dotson to have a big game.  I also look for an unsung hero off our bench.

I’ve come to the realization that everything offensively that we get from him is a bonus.  But I do expect him to be able to spread the floor out and his some corner threes and get that big man out the paint, play sound smart defense and grab boards.  He’s a 2 year starter and a 3 year letterman with tons of experience.  So no excuses.  He gotta get it.

Payia has to show up tonight… rebound rebound and play big…. 
 

I agree,  gonna need him to be a X factor tonight. IMO the key is the start. BU can’t get down by double digits like De Soto did last night. The game was fairly even after that.

    • Sure.  You reassign an employee and they leave voluntarily instead of being fired and being open to litigation.  The outcome is the same, but you are making my point.  The superintendent and AD and principal are all empowered to make personnel decisions.  Instead of accepting the decision made, you talk about lawyering up, no one else was reprimanded, railroad job.  I am old enough to remember when high school sports taught life lessons...accountability being chief among them.
    • I know absolutely nothing about the situation, but I do know head coaches of sports other than the AD have actual teaching assignments, and I know from my wife having worked in the sped department of multiple schools that it’s not uncommon at all for coaches to shirk those duties.  It could very well be that this was the case at BC.  Or not, I don’t know.  Just bringing this up to point out the fact that, although many coaches only want to worry about coaching, they generally have several other responsibilities at the school.  some of them neglect or ignore these duties entirely.  If he’s been written up for other issues before, it’s a dumb argument to say “he was punished for this and others were not”.  If he had a pile of write ups in his file and they did not then it makes sense that the punishments were different.  
    • He wasn’t fired, he was reassigned and people get reassigned all the time. If he was actually fired, then you would have a point, but he wasn’t fired. Based on the information presented here no way this would stand if they fired him and he lawyered up. 
    • I heard the assistant was going to get this job and assume it was referring to the old Vidor coach, Nate Smith.  I always thought he did more with less at Vidor and can't help but think he shares some responsibility in Vidor's recent success. 
    • Classic Bridge City.  Always someone else's fault, refs/umpires cheated, AD with an agenda, yada, yada, yada.  As far as I can tell it's damn near impossible to get fired at these schools so when someone does get fired, it's usually something.  Drama at Bridge City is a constant.  The guy did a good job coaching basketball and I'm sure he'll continue that somewhere else.  Time to move on.
