They never are on paper but always seem to make a run. Would have been nice to just to have left that comment off ForeverADog!!!!! Best of luck to Nederland....they are very good and I hope they win 20-4A again. Coach English is a class act and great coach!!! [/quote] This is a forum and he can say whatever he would like. I guess that hit you in the soft spot since HJ lost tonight. But it will be OK. Hardin Jefferson is always a good team, but I agree with him. HJ doesn't look like the deep state tournament team like has been in past years. [/quote] They didnt look like it (according to the wisdom on this board) at this point in either of those two seasons either. I know you dont like history, but being in the regional final for four or five consecutive years speaks volumes. [/quote] I never said I didnt like history.. Im just saying HJ doesnt look to have that star potential of a team like they have had in the past. Some of the students were started chanting "Over-rated" towards the end of the game. And while they were just saying that because Nederland was winning, I, along with other people in the area who arent wrapped around the idea that HJ created Basketball, can look at what this team has and make some what of a judgement call and say that HJ isnt what they have had in the past.

[quote name="HJ2012" post="918017" timestamp="1290611588"] Well, HJ's jv is going to be good! I mean just compare the games. The jv team had something to prove, which was that they are not the team their record reflects. [/quote] I didn't see the JV game but i can tell you something about HJ's JV. They played that game alot closer than I expected. Nederland's under levels are among the best in the area. Freshman and JV. And the Varsity is "ok" ;D

Nederland beat them pretty solid last night. Offense and defense. Both teams had injuries and Both teams looked sloppy. This was one of the first few games of the season for Both teams. Its early. -

Sounds like the Dogs got the better this game. Kelvin did the job down low, minus the travels. English stepped up today. Cunn not with his best night. Sloppy play by both teams but glad to get the win at home. -

If HJ presses well then even if they beat press it is just a 2. Those guys will pass a layup to get the 3 ball going. Should be a great game, anxious to see how the fresh does in his second game. Good luck to both teams. [/quote]If you look at it that way, then you've never seen an HJ press. They will get a steal here or there once in a while and then all of a sudden they will score 10 points in 40 seconds if the other team falls asleep. Nederland is going to have to limit those runs. I am looking forward to a good game tonight, and though I think HJ will win, I do remember when Nederland came over to our court and killed us 2 years ago. Ya'll had a small guard that hit like 50 points, mostly from the three point line. Your guys took advantage of the 3 starters who had played JV the previous year. That was sad, but it was fun watching those three mature throughout the year. [/quote] I think this team this year handles the press better most of the groups in the past. HJ may get a turnover here and there in fast break of a turnover, but I cant imagine Nederland letting HJ score 10 in a row without some kind of score. Cunningham and K-Smith are 2 of the top players in the area and can score the basketball. Im not sure how the big guys for HJ are going to do against Kelvin down low either. And just imagine if Forney was healthy and ready to go. Nederland would pound it in the paint all night. As you can tell, I think Nederland is going to win tonight, but it will be a good one because HJ comes to play every night. [/quote] While you are imagining, I would like to imagine things for HJ if their two missing starters were also playing [/quote] Well then I guess we both are just imagining things..

Is this game live video broadcast or just audio?

Should be great game, but I think this is Nederland's year. Dogs will still be without Forney.

Young Texas team. Thompson is a beast. Great early season win against a veteran Illinois squad, and I agree, Texas will be a lot better than people think.

Sullinger can carry the load against any big man in the country, and Kiebler is one the best 3 point shooters out there. Tough team. But like I said before, Team to beat is DUKE.
