Joe Sigler had this in effect for Silsbee back in the 80's and 90's. You could wear a nice and neat afro but no braids. People get real! If you want to work or play for anyone you have to abide by their rules. If you don't like try and find something else to do. Travis is trying to help mold these young men to accept dicipline. Its a freaking hair cut! If your a great athelete, you will cut your hair to get under team ploicy. If a parent is more concerned about this than their kids grades or chance at a higher education this would be sad.

Scalabrine I don't think HJ coach knows how to dance and is too stiff. Maybe he can line dance or maybe stand still and snap his fingers.

BMTsoulja Red got beat up for voicing his opinion to Debo. That's different!

I agree with Travis! Most parents disagree with teachers and coaches any way until they are put into their shows. Travis is the head coach and his rules are what you must abide by if you want to play basketball in Silsbee. It wierd how people always find SOMETHING to complain about. Look at the players on Duke and Texas. 90% of college programs dont allow Afro's, long hair, braids etc.... Just like a job, you must look presentable and dress for excellence. Nice work Travis!

Silsbee is better than WB and Nederland

Low scoring game!

Catman, this kid isn't even ranked in the top 20 players in the state of rivals. Did just magically get good over night? He maybe a darn good player, but I'm willing to bet Silsbee will beat Ball. I know there #1 in 4A, but I know basketball buddy. Evans and Pettaway won't beat a team that runs 11-12 deep for 4 quarters.

WOS is out to a slow start this year.what's up with them?

Pettaway can ne stopped!

I seen Ball play last year and this year. Silsbee's pressure will cause problems. There bigs can't run for 4 full quarters either. Don't say BadSanta told you so.

Woodville will be a playoff team that goes 1 or 2 rounds only unless the others step up.

Who you got and why?

HJ is so well coached they can do anything. Be careful!

Maybe they have a problem fielding a team. I think football losing hurt that entire community.

Aggie I agree! Those 3 teams are loaded but the Tiger press is serious. I expect Silsbee and Ball to be in the finals and Silsbee to suprise everyone with a 3 point victory.

Silsbee can compete and beat Humble and Ball if they play the way they have been all yea. I'm picking Silsbee to win this tourney. Don't say I I told you so.

These polls aren't as accurate as the football polls. HJ still 5 and Silsbee 9? Shouldn't those numbers be reversed?

If last years team was a 10 this year is a 8.5. They have a ton of scorers on this team.

The mother who made the Quanel X statement seems to not realize that a matter of hair isn't up for a debate. If the coach says he wants his players to wear their hair low and neat then that's what it is. Just like a job, you can't abide by the rules then don't accept the job. I read the article and I totally agree with Travis. Each and everyone of the students represent the community and school. Travis is doing something most coaches are scared to do.

I got HJ in this one

Agree Mcgee

Aggie is FW Brewer any good? 5A? Thanks again

I agree but not top page worthy news

Who does Silsbee draw in the first round? Ill come from Houston to watch if they can get to Galveston Ball.
