Central - 73 Vidor - 53 Final

Chooooo choooooo!

[quote name="bobbymcgee" post="1369092" timestamp="1359765354"] The AD has gone outside before- Stowers was an outside BISD hire, Stump was an outside BISD hire as was Flanigan. I don't remember where Ish Rison at Ozen came from but I don't think he had strong ties to BISD. [/quote] Rison was an assistant coach from Central.  There is the BISD ties.

Central - 39 Vidor - 29 Halftime

1. Nederland - Until the reigning 2 time district champs are dethroned, can't argue against this. 2. Central - Many returning starters and with the Goof troop gone, I agree that Central should challenge for the title. 3. PN-G - They won't have 2 horrible years in a row with Faircloth at the helm. 4. Ozen - I expect everything the team does will center around Brown with all his all world speed.  Vidor - they'll  it hard to replace Quirante.  6. LC-M 7. Livingston 8. Lumberton 1. North Shore 2. Memorial 3. West Brook 4. LaPorte 5. Deer Park 6. Sterling

PN-G isn't a bad team.  Its just that height really hurts them, though.  Besides The 6'6" Smith, the rest of the team may be border line 6 footers or shorter.  They'll hang with Nederland only because it's a rivalry. 

Big Ned - 51 PN-G - 47

I think last year Central [color=black][size=14pt]GAVE[/size][/color] Nederland 1st place [/quote] More like scared to play Nederland. I call that a forfiet.  ;D [/quote] ::) ::)  scared to play a team that we beat 2 out of 3 times, one on their home court?  keep dreaming.

Really quality win, Titans.  That's the best one since you beat Wheatley earlier this year.

This year I think Ozen and Central are better talent wise but Nederland still has the better coach with enough talent to win if they execute on any night.  I felt it would be a three way race and have not been disappointed.  Nederland can still finish anywhere from first to third and should be proud wherever they place in the top 3.  Now days, with 4 teams making the playoffs, it is not about winning district but making the playoffs and going as deep as possible.  I learned that from Nederland football;) [/quote][quote author=NHS83LU87 link=topic=108406.msg1366952#msg1366952 date=1359166981] Just to clarify what qualifies as better multisport athletes?  I don't recall there ever being a lot of multisport athletes involved with Nederland basketball ever.  If it involves football, Nederland only had Forney that played football during Coach E.'s 3rd-6th years at Nederland and no one the first 2 years.  Chris Cunningham decided to play football his senior year so he was a basketball player who went and benefitted football and then came back to basketball.  He had Jordan, Josh Dean, and Jacob Pitts that played basketball and baseball during his first five years at Nederland.  Prior to Coach E. there were no multisport athletes playing basketball.  That issue is irrelevant and isn't indicative of Coach E but maybe how many athletes are discouraged by other coaches/parents not to play basketball due to it's conflict with the sport(s) they are most concerned with....I do agree Coach E's teams are more finesse and need to be more physical but that is a difference of philosophies.  It's unfortunate but typical for Nederland football loyalist to put down the athleticism of non-football playing athletes.  The truth is several players were repeatedly asked to play football which would indicate they were and are good athletes not lesser athlete because they choose to focus on one or two non-football sports.  I could be wrong but only 5 multisport athletes out of 7 seasons doesn't sound like a lot to me.

It's unheard of these days being a 'star' on football and being 'the man' on the basketball court while your team is winning district banners and playoff games. 20 years ago, kids didn't play a single sport year round like they do today. So if basketball is a kid's 2nd sport, he must work extra if he wants to be the man or start. Three years ago, Forney was the district's MVP in basketball as a JR. He was also a FB player. By the time his senior year rolled around, he was the 2nd best player on the bball team bc other kids (Kelvin Smith) played year around basketball and passed him up. Forney was still a great player, but he got passed up by Smith who was able to focus 100% of his time on basketball. Other than Doty (from PNG), I don't know of many kids who can be 'the man' at both sports. PNG finished fourth during Doty's senior year, but think how good they COULD have been had he dedicated all his time to basketball. They likely would NOT have been the 4th Pl team that year, and one and done in the playoffs. Other than that year, PNG has not been to the playoffs in basketball in 15 years or so. 8, 10, 15 years ago, the Ned basketball program was the same way; at the bottom of the district standings. I'm sure there were kids who starred on the football field AND was either the star or was a starter on the hardwood during that time. However, those team's finished district at 2-10, 4-8, 0-12, etc. If a kid plays FB and wants to be a key player in Bball, he has to put in the time and shoot, dribble, etc outside of the bball season. If they don't have the time or dedication to do so, then they cannot expect to be anything more than a role player. Some kids accept that, others cannot. I'm sure it would be difficult to be a star on the FB team, then come off the bench in bball. I'm glad Kimler has stuck with the bball program. He contributes when asked, and I think he is a great asset on the team. Obviously, the Nederland bball program has higher expectations than from years past. The talent level is no different, but many kids are dedicated to the program, and that's a reason the program is now EXPECTED to win. Weisbrod could easily play football and baseball and be very good at all three sports. However, I don't think he would be anywhere near as good in basketball had he chose to play all 3. He would still be a starter, but not nearly as dominating. That is a choice he made. Call us 'Homers' if you want, but when a program has only made one playoff appearance since 1955, and now is going every year AND winning district titles AND going 3/4 games deep in the playoffs, you can label us anything you want. I can remember losing to Beaumont and PA schools every year by 30,40,50 points. Nowadays days, when we lose to those teams by 5 or 10 points, Nederland suddenly 'has a problem'... ::) [/quote] David Green III was the star football player on both '10 and '11 teams and was 'the man' on those same basketball teams at Ozen...

[/quote]maybe Lee is trying to get his youngsters fine tuned. This is a young team that suffered a late breakdown Tuesday. [/quote] I'm willing to bet that bench players were in the game with a minute left.  I do know for a fact that our bench is pretty good. I can see Central still scoring points with them in the game.
