Let's just make this perfectly clear. Gone are the days when the words 'Yates" and "Wheatley" strike fear into teams. It just doesn't carry the weight like it used to back in the day.

Both Silsbee and Wheatley have agreed on East Chambers. Silsbee wants Thursday. Wheatley wants Friday. Stay tuned.

Will Wheatley be intimidated to play such a history rich program like Silsbee?

You do know that some of us who've been around for a long time actually know who you are, right? I appreciate the confidence, though.

Silsbee vs. Wheatley Friday, 7:30pm East Chambers HS, Winnie

Anyone who has worked in BISD would beg to differ. United gets whatever they want when it comes to athletics. Years ago WB had donors waiting to turf baseball field with private funds and the school said they could but if they did, the school would have to pay for United to get turf because they want everything the same. In reality United is treated better than WB when it comes to athletics. AD is a good dude, but a basketball dude. BTW maybe it's not the coaches that are on board there, maybe the talent pool in Beaumont has gone down due to athletes leaving and going to Silsbee, HJ, HF, and PA because of the crap show that is BISD. Having worked there and I loved my time and the kids that were there, I can tell admin is not given the tools for success from the top. Another note is look how many former coaches and BISD players that are coaching at the schools I mentioned earlier and see how many kids from Beaumont have left.

HF was down 1 after 3 quarters. I doubt they psyched themselves out after they proved they could play with them. Fact of the matter is the better team wore them down at the end, and HF’s best post presence fouled out early 4th

For starters, Hamshire-Fannett QB Ty Bryson passed for 3527 yards and 42 TD's while leading his team to district championship and 2nd round of the playoffs. Thomas had 2089 yards rushing and 24 TD's on a 4th place team that was eliminated in 1st round. Personally (and I do have a vote) it's down to those two for me for offense.

Has there been talks to redraw the lines to make them all 3 5A or anything? Or is that not possible now?

According to our resident psychologist, yes.

GCCISD just announced their new hire for GCM HFC/AD. “The Goose Creek CISD school board has voted to approve the contract of Jay’Mond Cleveland to be the next Head Football Coach/Athletic Coordinator at Goose Creek Memorial High School. The coach is no stranger to the district. He is a 2003 Lee High School graduate and a former Ganders offensive coordinator under head coach Tim Finn. Cleveland left the school district after the 2021-2022 school year and took a position at Summer Creek High School. He has spent the last two seasons at Nimitz High School. More than 60 candidates applied for the Goose Creek Memorial opening. The applicant pool was whittled down to a top 10 list, then to four, second round candidates and finally to two, in the third and final round. Cleveland will be the fifth head coach since the school opened in the 2008, taking over for Daniel Ragsdale. Ragsdale was 2-28 in his three years at the helm of Patriots football, winless this last season. Cleveland will be tasked with guiding the school district’s only Class 6A athletics program as well as its football team.”

Early line Silsbee -5

Very simple. Race is her problem. Always has been and more than likely always will be

I personally spoke with the head coach at Tarkington. He said not a single player on his team knows anything about Wheatley history. Wheatley is the better team and that's why they won the game. Had nothing to do with psyching out the opponent.

I guess she doesn’t realize Halle Berry has a lot of cream in her coffee…..and I happen to like Halle Berry.

Why do you dislike white people so much? You have nothing positive to say about anyone white, while claiming everyone else is uneducated. You must like the divide.

If Trump has a good term, Vance will be our next President.

Of course

Both have agreed to East Chambers. Silsbee wants Thursday, Wheatley wants Friday

I think it was just a few years ago BH vs LP was a first round playoff matchup now both in regional finals because they are two of the only decent programs in 5A region 3 that got split by D1 and D2. The Beaumont United team from that same year would run every team in this years region out of the gym by 30 plus.

About the same as Silsbee. Silsbee starts '6"2, '6"2, '6"2, '6"5, '6"6

DOGE says it found nearly untraceable budget line item responsible for $4.7T in payments. The Treasury Access Symbols, when left blank, made it nearly impossible to trace the payments. [Hidden Content]

These young kids don't know much about Yates in the late 2000s or Wheatley from the 70s. Both programs are decent but not like they use to be.

BH advances! Won 43 - 26.

Tough first round draw for HF. Played very well against the number 8 rank team in the state.

Wheatley, Yates and Washington combined would make a really good 6A. Not a big 6A but fair sized and with a really good basketball program that could compete with the other Houston area 6A's. Doesn't that sound like a good plan?

Not even close. Both those teams (HF and Tarkington) are well coached. I can guarantee that wasn't a factor.

Final 70-46 Silsbee

It's back.

Video froze on Texan Live.

Final 52-36 Brookeland

Vidor in foul trouble in 1st half. #5 for Hudson is having a really good game.

2nd qtr Wheatley 36 Tarkington 32

Game will be on Texan Live

I feel the need to keep this thread going in memory of our friend, Hagar. He’d like this one….

Man In my opinion, they’ve got just as good a shot as anyone else. Kinda sucks they didn’t do this 2 years ago. We would have been state champs both the last 2 years.

It is sad. Micromanagement run wild at the UIL. Its making things laughable at this point.

I know they’re not in the area covered by SETX for basketball, but as the only close team in 5AD1-1 still in the PO’s, I thought I’d go ahead & post. La Porte vs. Hendrickson A&M Consol HS Tuesday 6:00 pm

Good Luck Tigers!! Lots of playoff experience on this team. Play hard, play smart, and give it all you have. Im sure the results will be a victory.

Thomas and Hunter

Hubert Thomas and Tayvion Hunter would be my 2 winners…

Looking at the Silsbee side of the bracket, they can definitely win if they play up to their potential. They just can't have any off nights.

I spoke to a few officials last night at the game I attended. They told me that OF leads the area in technical fouls for this season. 20+ so far. At least 10-12 in the last few weeks. This is a problem that needs correcting soon.

New coach should be fine. Just leave a copy of the lineup on the supt's desk before the game. Just to make sure.
