Vidor50 Posted December 27, 2007 Report Share Posted December 27, 2007 Way to go Vidor. Hopefully they are turning the corner and getting their confidence as playing as a team. Lots of potential and a great coaching staff. Godd luck Vidor. ;D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VP Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 GO PIRATES GO! GO PIRATES GO! ;D :oLooks like our team has found their groove. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dash111 Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 found their groove? the't they beat sheppard and bridge city. WOW! District will be much tougher. why didn't they play in a tougher tournament to get them ready for district? If they win the tournament that doesn't give them any confidence, they needed to play better competition, the kind they will face in district.

Guest catfever Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 OF wins 56-40. Pirates only scored 2 points in the 3rd quarter. Jeremy Granger-MVP Jarred Helton and Zach Hayes all tournament. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dash111 Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 that's a horrible performance by vidor, who were favored to win the tournament, and lose by 16. they have a lot of work to do if they are hoping to get a win in district Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest catfever Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 How can you say Vidor was favored to win the tournament. Just because they are 4A doesn't mean they are the best team. OF has beaten 2 other teams from Vidors district who will probably beat Vidor also. I guess it doesn't matter who is favored, just who wins.

Guest catfever Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 OF also beat Coach English's current team as well if it makes you feel any better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
team first Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 yea just not much talent any more. After the starting five there is just no depth. #10 comes in and gives you some good min, but after him, that is it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dash111 Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 yea bench is little, no bigs. #10 does do a good job when he comes in. but no one else really goes in from the bench, myabe they should put them in and see what they can do Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
team first Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 i believe most besides #10 came from jv, and they were not able to do much there either Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest catfever Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 They had like nine kids dressed out. One of them did look like he was a JV kid. He had a black top on while the rest had white ones. He only played at the very end though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never heard that..........yes, our boys have some work to do but good Lord, we all still support them. Or maybe by your standards, since there have been some WIN issues we should just abandon cheering them on? They have played other tournys w/teams in our district.

Vidor50 Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 COme guys from Orangegield. The team is young with one senior. I believe if I am not mistaken and I am not, that it took coach English 5 years to build his program and with the help of a good second coach named Roebrtson. Give them a chance and don't go crazy. They might not have been the favorite to win, but Orangefield has a darn good team. Stop the Vidor bashing please. I thought people from Orangefield were better than that.

Guest Williamson13 Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 No comment about the game.....My advice..burn the tape and forget about it. Embarrasing perfomance for the williamson brothers. Hope they got that out of their system Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest catfever Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 Those aren't Orangfield people bashing your team. They are Vidor people. I was defending the fact that Orangefield should have been favored in the first place. I think that Vidor has a good team. I think that Orangefield is better. If I am not mistaken, Vidor only has one senior on the team. Orangefield has more experience (my son being one of them). I agree, people in Vidor need to be patient. A new coach has a new system, even if he was the previous coach's assistant. He has his own ideas, his own system. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest kf89 Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 robertson is not totally focused on the vidor job,cuz he has the png job as soon as they get rid of abel.IT'S A DONE DEAL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest catfever Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 Don't start rumors. They are in the middle of the year. I doubt he is thinking about a PNG job that is not even open right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest kf89 Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 tHIS IS FUNNY!Oilfeild & Vedor,going at it over b-ball.Oilfeild is probably the 4th place team in their own district,non district wins over average & below average 4a teams,is nothing to compare to district games vs.h-j,silsbee,&jasper.those teams press & fast break from the get go.So playing teams like vidor& ned. are'nt going to get you ready for the teams you have to beat to get to the playoffs.although that stall ball push & grab style o-feild plays has done decent in non-district.

Guest catfever Posted December 28, 2007 Report Share Posted December 28, 2007 I don't know what the stall ball and push and grab that you are talkng about is, but we have played a decent non-district schedule. The same type schools that Jasper, HJ, Silsbee, and WO-S have played. Actually we played Silsbee in our tournament and lost by 1. No that wasn't district, but it gives us a gauge of what we need to do to win. Looking at schedules on this web site I see that Jasper played Vidor and LCM (we played both). WOS played Nederland and PN-G (we played both). HJ played LCM. Silsbee played LCM and Nederland. Teams sound familiar. They must not be getting ready for district either.
