Best player in SETX?


HubTx

Recommended Posts

I have to say the MVP of Southeast Texas right now has to be Montana Quirante of Vidor. He is doing it on both sides of the ball, starting QB and MLB.

Now, does that say he is the best player? Probably not. But I believe it makes him the most valuable player in the area.


Best player from a statistical stand point has to be Hemphill soph. QB Justine Twine, who through just 6 games, has rushed for just over 2,000 yards.

I think that sometimes we get wrapped up in stats a little too easily though....

To me, when I think about who is the best player, I think about if I was hand picking a team, who would be the first player I would pick....

While Twine has put up fantastic numbers, what would he do against a 3A or 4A defense? I don't know, and we will never know....

Quirante is an interesting name because he is definitely the most valuable player to his team at this point....

I'm thinking as of right now, and my mind can be changed, that at the top of my list would be.... Hmm.... I don't know yet lol

Not trying to sway your choice but isnt that exactly what Justin Twine does also? He is QB and also goes back out on defense as MLB or safety, Jordan does too, actually theres not many that dont on our team because we have maybe 24 or so kids. He started last year as a 14 year old freshman as RB along side his brother, so in my opinion, that does make him valuable to his team. and yes I'm from Hemphill ( I KNOW my screen name wouldn't give it away...lol), but if it wasn't for our Oline, he might not get as many stats. Good Job O-line.

You have some good points here but may i add that playing both sides of the ball in 2A and 4A is a big difference. Most teams in 2A or lower have a lotta kids who play both sides of the ball. Thats typical but what you don't really think of is most of say your playing both sides of the ball but most of the kids on the other team are also playing both sides of the ball so yall are pretty much even but when it comes to 4A most kids aren't playing both sides of the ball so when you find one that does and is still doing what Quirante is dong thats something to speak of. Oh and Quirante was starting as a freshman also in MLB. And may i add this is his first year playing QB.  8)

2009 Starting LB's in the 3-4 Larimore, Johnson, Mojica, Robinson .  Quirante did not start as a Freshman although he did get playing time and what he is doing THIS year speaks for itself.

Quirante!
Apparently at the end of the Ozen game Coach Matthews was planning on a field goal attempt when Quirante stepped up and said, "No, I got this." At least that's what I recall reading in the paper. If that's true, it indicates the influence and value he has....as a junior in high school.

    • Exactly Lum. Right is still right regardless which way the wind blows. 
    • High Point walks it off.  Vandy Whistler headed home!
    • Tomball takes wild 2nd game 8-6. Both teams had 3 E's. Tomball gave up a late lead but first game pitching star Sampson nailed a 3 run homer to push Tomball to victory. 
    • My understanding is that the falsification of records was the crime that he was convicted of… but for it to have been a felony act, it had to have occurred in the furtherance of another criminal act. The prosecution had to first prove that the criminal act of falsifying documents had occurred. IF the jury believed that records were falsified, they were given three possible criminal acts… any one of the three would allow a felony conviction. The instructions stated that for any of the 34 charges, all twelve of the jurors had to agree that records were falsified, but they also had to believe that the records were falsified in the furtherance of at least one other, different crime. Six jurors could believe that Trump was falsifying records to avoid paying taxes… the other six could believe that it was skirt around election laws. The jurors didn’t have to agree on which of the three alleged criminal acts Trump was trying to further by falsifying records, just so long as they agreed that a) the falsification occurred and that it b) occurred to help him cover up another crime (for which he wasn’t charged and never proven to have committed or to have even occurred, for that matter).     Complete pile of crap as a prosecution, in my opinion.     But, we shouldn’t cry if our nominee is the kind of man who bangs porn stars while his wife is at home with the kid, then tries to buy her silence, then breaks the law in regards to falsifying documents to hide the evidence of the coverup.    If you’re wondering why falsifying those records might be illegal, it’s this. Money paid to your attorney for services performed can be deducted from one’s taxes as a legal expense. If the money is paid to a person to settle a personal claim, then the amount would be taxable-the falsification would have been done to avoid taxation. On the other hand, if campaign funds were spent to pay hush money and the records were falsified to hide the violation of campaign laws, then the felony occurred.    The bottom line is this…. They didn’t have enough evidence to indict trump on any of those three things that allegedly happened… but they DID have evidence that the financial records were falsified, so they point at these other acts which can’t be proven to bump the charges on falsification to a felony.    And the reason Trump didn’t take the stand is that he can’t go on the record about whether or not he had sex with Daniels… I’m certain that they can prove it and hang him up on perjury too.    The most delicious irony is this… Trump gave his supporters too much credit for their integrity. He thought they’d turn on him if they found out what he’d done, when in reality they wouldn’t have given a care… Trump’s whole falsifying records and quest for secrecy wasn’t even needed… his followers don’t have moral objections to his sinful acts.
