QB01 Posted May 25, 2012 Report Share Posted May 25, 2012 What does Lee have this year. I know the past two years the sub varsity teams have not been very successful. Only winning a couple games if that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gary-us-bonds Posted May 25, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 25, 2012 This will be the last year that Lee wins a game on varsity I believe. Only half joking with that.they have Josh Zellars at QB/Safety. He will be a D1 type guy. He is a senior.They have a kid named Cedro I believe is his name. He plays running back and linebacker. He is a pretty good athletes. They have a kid named Gomez, tall and lanky pretty good speed that plays some receiver for them.Miquo Willie will probably play receiver and some db. He is also a pretty good athlete.Jamari Gilbert is another kid with nice size and speed that will play receiver and db. They have some nice size up front.Kion Richardson, who I can only assume is Jaevon's brother, will play some linebacker and maybe receiver. A little more stocky and not quite as dynamic as Jaevon.Most of them are seniors though, and as you said they have been winless two years straight on freshman team I believe, or close to it.I think they could make some noise this year, if they stay healthy, depending on how much Zellars has improved as a qb. He started playing safety last year towards the end of the year because Scott was a better qb. Zellars' future might actually be safety as he was all-district in his limited time. Between him and the Cedro kid they should be able to just bully their way through and run the ball a little bit against a lot of teams. They are both big and physical relatively speaking.Outside of that, I don't know. I will be learning on the fly today at 5pm/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QB01 Posted May 26, 2012 Report Share Posted May 26, 2012 So what did you think panama? Thought the best play was the int by the corner that didn't even know the ball was thrown. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gary-us-bonds Posted May 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2012 I left shortly after halftime.It was rough to watch. I would prefer if they just lined up the 1's vs. 1's to the best of their capability, knowing that some of them play both ways.They don't have enough good players to have a draft and split the teams up like that to where the #1 qb is on one team, and the best receiver and rb are on the other team. Can't really tell much and it is not helpful to the players in my opinion.Jamari Gilbert was out for Lee. I am almost certain that Gomez was out too, but I could be wrong about that one.Lee just doesn't have a whole lot of players.Zellars and Cedro should provide a good running 1-2 punch. Zellars still struggles with the passing game. Of course the win was gusting up to 40 mph it seemed.Leonce looked like he might be able to provide some shiftiness at receiver and punt returner.They will need Gilbert, Gomez, Willie, Zellars and Cedro to all play a little bit of both ways at the very least if not full time both ways.They had about 80 guys out, so that is an improvement over last year as hard as that may be to believe. lolI thought they looked.....ok, but again it was hard to tell much with two starters not even dressing, then another four offensive starters on the maroon team, while five more are on the white team. Same way with the defense. Just hard to get a gauge not seeing them all out on the field at once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gary-us-bonds Posted May 26, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2012 I would need a better description of what you are talking about. That post did not make sense.All of those that were going to transfer already have I am quite sure. There would be no reason for them to play in this spring scrimmage if they were going to transfer lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LP0175 Posted May 28, 2012 Report Share Posted May 28, 2012 Just heard a couple of guys talking about how Lee had some academic issues and receive(d) Unacceptable and the varsity players can transfer without penelty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gary-us-bonds Posted May 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2012 Yes.They did.I would hope anyone that was planning on transferring would not be out there playing in the spring game, but you never know.I know all of the key players are also playing for the Lee 7 on 7 team as of this past weekend in Manvel.I imagine anyone that wanted to transfer would have found a way to transfer already by finding a relative to claim on the other side of town like these kids always do. They wouldn't have waited until Lee got an unacceptable rating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gary-us-bonds Posted May 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2012 Hard to believe that Sterling did not also get unacceptable. When I looked at the numbers in the Chronicle a few weeks back, Lee actually had better numbers than Sterling nearly across the board. Sterling may have had a better percentage under one heading, which presumably is the one they use for rating. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LP0175 Posted May 28, 2012 Report Share Posted May 28, 2012 I did talk with a few GCISD teachers and they prefer a onee school district, just have a freshman campus and a senior campus. But I doub they'll do that with GCM. Maybe that what the'll do with Lee/Sterling?What do you think? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gary-us-bonds Posted May 28, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 28, 2012 Goose Creek has no vision.They should have gone to one school back when they had the chance. They went to three schools and now they are losing students like nobody's business at Lee.Lee may be down to a 3A school before long.They were ore concerned, in this everyone gets a trophy society, in having 3 valedictorians, 3 salutatorians, 3 drum majors, 3 starting quarterbacks, so on and so forth, than they were about having any sort of community pride.All three schools are pretty well mediocre to poor in every sport and in every academic standard you could come up with.So, no...I don't think they will combine Lee and Sterling. If anything, they will build another high school so they can have 4 valedictorians, 4 salutatorians.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then they missed it again when they added Memorial and further diluted the talent pool with 3 high schools. I firmly believe this is the end of Lee (as a Lee grad I hate this). They need to go to a 9th/10th campus and 11th/12th campus. It is the only way they will be competitive across the board. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for GCCISD, there are plenty of good kids doing the right thing in and out of the classroom. I would not paint with such a broad paintbrush. Every district has their "problems".

Problem is the houses are 40-70 years old, land value worth nothing, businesses open and close faster than the shelves get filled, and 1/2 the populations has never filed a tax return. The area has turned into little Mexico and is a crap-hole of monumental proportions. I don't see any solution to any of it, just short of 2 Cat 4 or 5 hurricanes to demolish the homes. That sucks for us all, but nobody will spend money to build anything in OBT. Just look at the failed and poor attempts on Texas Ave. Do they really think anyone is going there to spend money? They need 2 or 3 hi-rise office buildings to bring in some economical benefit, which could help. Beaumont is a good example of that working Mon-Fri.

gary-us-bonds Posted May 30, 2012 Author Report Share Posted May 30, 2012 You're right. There is no way out of this for Lee.The way out for the entire city was to combine the schools into one instead of further diluting and making three campuses.None of the three campuses have anything worthwhile going on. All three stuck in mediocrity. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
