Brown had another good game tonight. He can flat out play, his passing skills are very good. As long as he keeps his head on straight, we will be seeing one of the best to ever come out of this area. The Horn's should be very strong for years to come. Hook'em Horn's!

Where are all the people who swore he wouldn't ever put on a longhorns uniform???  Way to go J'Covan!!! keep fighting!
[/quote]I didn't think he would play for the horns.Not because of a lack of ability or attitude but because of the academics it takes to stay eligible at UT.Hopefully he is maturing enough to appreciate what he's been given.The talent has never been questioned.

Brown has played well EXCEPT for the turnovers...  He will needs to work on not being up in bad  positions, he is way to smart of a player for that.  I had my doubts about him playing for UT but I did not doubt his talent.  He still has BIG shoes to fill to be the best from the area...  Right now 6'10" Perk and 6'9" Jackson own those honors... Both have a State Championsip and a NBA title... Those guys are the best to ever come out of the area!

His scoring is going to increase when Jai Lucus joins the team in Dec. I think they'll move him to the 2 guard
[/quote]I thought Jai was more of a 2 guard at florida?
[/quote]I remember reading something about the Lucas family wanted him at point guard.

I feel J'Covan was better than Willie Warren, Oka. via Fort Worth, in high school and was arguably the best talent to come out of SE Texas. Talent like that will always get a second chance. Good Luck J'Covan!!

First of all, good luck to J'Covan! 

Secondly, an earlier post on this thread said J'Covan might be the best to ever come out of SE Texas.  Thankfully, several other posters have said that honor may be a little premature considering such local players such as Kendrick Perkins, Stephan Jackson, BJ Tyler, Earl Evans, etc. 

But there is one name that is almost never mentioned when listing great athletes from SE Texas and that is Walter "Buddy" Davis from Nederland and Texas A&M.  Here is what the Texas Aggie website says about Davis:

"Davis (Nederland, Texas) was named the top two-sport track athlete in history by USA Track & Field several years ago. He earned third-team All-America honors in 1951 after leading the Aggies to their first Southwest Conference title in 28 years and their first-ever NCAA Tournament berth. Davis went on win the gold medal and set the world record in the high jump in 1952, then played five seasons in the National Basketball Association for the Philadelphia Warriors and the St. Louis Hawks."

A world record and Olympic gold medal in the high jump and then five years in the NBA - not too shabby.  Even though Davis played over 50 years ago, I think he is worthy of at least being mentioned as one of the best ever from SE Texas.

    • What the writer stated wrt crossover votes in the primary/runoff: "Covey and his supporters Paxton and Lt. Gov. Dan Patrick said Phelan only won because Democrats crossed over to vote in the Republican Primary for him. Paxton said Covey’s campaign identified “at least” 1,442 Democrats who voted early in Jefferson County in the primary runoff. Texas does not have party registration, but a voter’s primary voting history is public. The Covey campaign has not released its methodology behind its claim, but  This is the hidden content, please Sign In or Sign Up  by The Texan news website found that 9% of Republican voters in the March District 21 primary had voted in one of the previous four Democratic primaries. However, only 5% of that group had voted in all four previous Democratic primaries. What Phelan’s opponents did not mention is historically Democratic Jefferson County is undergoing a political transition towards the Republican party — the county judge switched his affiliation to the GOP in 2017 — so many residents have a mixed primary voting history. And Phelan’s allies in the House dismissed the idea that liberals swung the election. "I knocked on doors, hundreds and hundreds of doors, made calls for Dade,” Republican Rep. Jeff Leach, R-Plano, said on Mark Davis’ radio program Wednesday. “I did not speak to a single Democrat down here in HD21. Not a single one." "
