COUNT on it.

Played Wheatley in a warm up game several years ago at Montagne Center-  Based upon that game, I am not as fearful as you think I should be.

I saw some 4-A schools in the Fall league out of Houston 3 deep with major D-1 talent. Most high schools are lucky to have one major impact player on their team. So yes, I predict it will be hard for most rural schools to compete at regionals with stacked teams. [/quote] Can anyone tell me why, then, have the 3-a schools in Dallas not dominated the 3-a final fours in recent years? [/quote]I can! The top kids in Dallas attend private schools (Arlington Prep for example or 5-a schools like Flower Mound.) [/quote] So, if I understand you correctly, the top kids in Dallas attend private schools or 5-a schools but in Houston they attend 3-a schools?  Interesting.

Dove- Is it safe to say then, that you are predicting that the winner of this 3-a REgion will come from that district when they start playing at 3-a level?

Why ban me?  I intended it as a compliment to both parties individually.  If this will make everyone feel better, I contend that Lazeek and Poppabear would also be better qualified to occupy the whitehouse.  Trueblue, am going to have to wait a little longer before I put you in that category.

[/quote] NEVER NEVER EVER make the mistake of suggesting that the Dove does not, at all times, know exactly what is going on.  On this board, he is a man amongst boys, from an intellectual standpoint.

Dove- Are you serious?  Do you sometimes say things on this board that you don't really mean?

He is still good evidence that skills and intellect are the most important when it comes to functioning well in a legitimate TEAM environment.  Kobe Bryant is muscularly well defined and jumps very well but that has never stopped Paul Pierce from competing quite well against him.  Dove, the best part is that you KNOW that I am right on the money on the Bird analogy so your only comeback is to say he is from the past.  Kevin McHale was another perfect example of no muscles, no speed, no vertical jump  but somehow managed to be a 7 time All Star and helped bring a title or two to Boston

[quote name="5 on 5" post="1087716" timestamp="1319046432"] [quote author=stevenash link=topic=89371.msg1087597#msg1087597 date=1319036607] If a player does not shoot, pass, and defend well, I am not that interested in how high he jumps. [/quote] Yeah why should anyone work to be a "complete" player anyway?? Just pick a couple of skills and work on that.  ::) :o [/quote] I assume that you are belittling my last comment.  I am all for strength training and endurance training but NOT at the cost of skill training/improvement.  If you have a player who looks like Adonis and can dunk flat footed and run the 100 yd dash in 9.5 seconds, that is great.  However, if he can't make a free throw when it matters, or doesnt know how to "take care" of the ball and not turn it over, I would gladly sacrifice some of that strength and speed for a better set of skills.  I think Larry Bird is probably a good example of what I am suggesting.

If a player does not shoot, pass, and defend well, I am not that interested in how high he jumps.

Somebody please tape this performance.  I expect to see it the next time the ESPYS are on television.

Just re-confirm when that broadcast involving you and AAW will take place.  I want to buy my ticket in advance.

[quote name="Honest Abe" post="1087070" timestamp="1318966993"] If HJ's 'weak schedule has produced those outcomes, they just might know what they're doing. MOST coaches know what is best for their program, and every year (and every school) is unique. [quote author=stevenash link=topic=89953.msg1086960#msg1086960 date=1318959845] Superb use of the English language and I have a feeling that the Bulldogs will capture the title again.  I tend not to get too concerned about what somebody else feels about the district we are in or who we played.  We are regularly criticized for our weak schedule but that weak schedule has not stopped us from getting to the regionals each of the last 5 years( and that includes two trips to Austin).  Based upon that result, I am getting more and more convinced ( ;D) that the coaching staff may actually know and be better qualified to handle the details than posters on this board. [/quote] [/quote] Very interesting concept that could be somewhat valid.

And a weak state twice
