Chronicle: Will any 3A team challenge Yates?


Kountzer

Recommended Posts

" Will any 3A team challenge Yates? If Yates plays its best, the answer probably is no. If the No. 1-ranked Lions have even an average night, however, they could exit the playoffs early. Region III features more than a handful of ranked teams, including No. 8 Silsbee and No. 9 Navasota. Led by Silsbee, District 21 could prove to be a handful. No. 15-ranked Hardin-Jefferson lurks in the second round. No. 14 West Orange-Stark is on the top half of the bracket."

They're mostly talking about Region III.  Beyond that is a different story.

It will be a tough game for Silsbee but I think they can pull off a upset! They just need to play Tiger basketball for all 4 quarters!
[/quote]Just curious BlueOwl (hmmm Blue?) Have you ever seen Yates play?

They need to play TEAM basketball, not TIGER basketball........

I've seen both Yates and Silsbee play numerous times this year and truth be told the only thing that concerns me is Silsbee's inability to box out and rebound. HJ ate our lunch on the boards and given the fact that Yates has the size and the prowess to put back offensive rebounds is a legitimate obstacle. Should the Tigers make a concerted effort to "group" rebound the foul situation may come into play as well which may further impact the Tigers as the bench is not deep enough talent wise to make up any ground should they fall behind. That being said, I truly feel that those young men are going to mentally revisit last year's ending and dig down deep to "Go Get It!" I know for sure that Coach Sigler has scouted Yates throughout this season so that part of the equation shouldn't be a concern at all, players have to play and coaches have to coach as every team left is by no means a easy win.......

Exactly we must play our best all around te game all year and even that may not be enough.  If things don't go our way and we get down on each other it will get ugly real fast.  Just out if curiosity, how many players did Yates use during that first half?

I believe 8-9

    • Will probably be released by the Democrats come September.  Sound familiar?
    • 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.
