[quote name="Rebel Yeller" post="748949" timestamp="1264375158"] [quote author=AggiesAreWe link=topic=65017.msg748841#msg748841 date=1264350928] I have seen all 3 teams play (Spurger and Evadale both played Silsbee) and Spurger wins this district hands down. They have the better team and the better players. Evadale and SP will battel for second with the other getting 3rd. I can see SP defeating Evadale at their place. We'll see. Neither team will beat Spurger. [/quote] I will admit that the Rebels played badly against Silsbee, but since both teams (Evadale and Spurger) lost to the tigers by wide margins, [b]I am not sure you can make the comparison[/b]. I know that Spurger has a talented team and has shown well in most all of their games this season. But the Rebels have begun to gel as a team. There were some rough spots around the holidays, but those seem to be in the rear view mirror now and the offense and defense are coming together nicely. The combination of Stark and Tucker on the inside and Murphy and Totten on the outside can be difficult for teams to match up with. Herrington is adjusting to his point guard role and he had a three point shot as well if team sag ito the paint. The offense is sroring over 60 points in district while limiting teams to under 35, even with the SP points last Friday. The Rebels are also seeing great pressure from their substitues on the press. There are six fresh bodies that can come in off the bench and keep the pressure on. SP went up early by 12 on the Rebels, but the pressure wore them down and allowed the Rebels secure the victory in the end. The Rebels and the Pirates seem to be on a colision course with both teams being 3-0 now with one game each before they meet on Friday. I believe that if the Rebels continue to play team ball and continue to improve the score and even the outcome could be different than the prediction will be going.   [/quote] I can make the comparison because I have seen both teams play. Yes, they both lost badly to Silsbee, but if you would have watched each game, you would have seen that Spurger played much better than what Evadale did against the Tigers. Based on what I have seen, Spurger is the better team and will beat Evadale. But they still have to play the games.

They are not any good.

BTW, what's Sam's largest crowd this year?[/quote] I am sure you can ask the PA announcer at Lamar! He seems to be getting good numbers from somewhere...  ::) Looks like our top crowds were 1787 against TXST and 1564 against SFA. The TXST game was the first one back for the students while SFA was prior to the "re-arrival" after the break at semester and as I've said before, unlike Lamar, which relies on the community, SHSU basketball relies more on the students. Figure we'll start topping 2000 pretty soon and if in position for something special at the end, 2500 to 3000 easy, like it was in in 03. [/quote]I think he was talking about SHSU basketball, not football.        Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh lol. [/quote] LMAO!!!!  Good one UNLV.

I like Memorial's chances against Yates. I would still pick the Lions by about 12-15.

[quote name="swag" post="748911" timestamp="1264367203"] I hate to say this but Hawkettes will win this game by 6. No Pheal Hill and a limping D.C is just too big of a lost. Think about this. Those other players aren't use to these type of games. Those 2 players been dealing with Hj for the last 3 or 4 years. Turner will have a field day on the new guards. [b]Silsbee will have 5 players in there that haven't played in this Rivalry yet[/b]. Hj has about 10. So experience will be the reason Hj wins. "Lack of" will be Silsbee's problems [/quote] I don't know where you get 5 players. The only two that will probably see the floor with any significant minutes that hasn't played against HJ at the varsity level is Barrett and Gaines. Now if Simmons and Lockett see the floor, that would make 4. Harris, Lane, Thomas, Stallworth, and Jones played against HJ last year. Lane only once, the win at HJ. He was injured in the loss at Silsbee, did not play.

[quote name="The GOAT" post="748919" timestamp="1264370310"] [b]We lost by 15 to westbury. Yates beat westbury by 30[/b]. I think we have a pretty good chance because we love to go up tempo. As soon as the ball is out the net we we're going up the floor with it, not giving them time to set up in the press. We would have to deny Peters the ball the whole game and we could because we go 12 deep.  They only beat us by 30 last year, but we r so much better, but so r they. ;D [/quote] That's two different Westbury's. PAM played Westbury Christian, the #1 ranked private school in the state. Yates played Houston Westbury, just another 4A public school in the inner city, Yates district foe. Westbury Christian is much better than Houston Westbury.

[/quote] Silsbee should be considered the favorite with or without Hill.  [/quote] Disagree. HJ is the definite favorite going into this Friday's game. [/quote] Dont know how you can say that.  You have two definite advantages. 1.  [b]Playing on your homecourt  [/b] 2.  Swag will be pulling for you [/quote] Homecourt didn't matter much last year. Both teams won on the road. Silsbee playing without their leading scorer is a disadvantage. That's how I say that. ;)

Seems like you are true fan. Just don't be like Lazeek, Karma, and Nash. [/quote]Wow!  I've been both "Swagged" by you and "Respected" by you! I feel honored!  And yes, I do love a good game of basketball, even if the Hawks happen to lose...... which they won't this week....... hopefully! And to those whe think the Tigers don't stand a chance against HJ without [b]Heal[/b]....... you're nuts. [/quote] Fan, I hope that's not a play on words. His name is Pheal [b]Hill[/b].

Silsbee did beat New Waverly without Hill. ;)

[quote name="bulldogbasketball" post="748860" timestamp="1264354142"] I think a lot of people on here don't understand that Yates is playing for a chance at a national championship something that is unheard of for just about every high school in America. I also think that if yall were 16, 17, or 18 with a chance at a national championship, and you were as good as Yates, then you would be trying to do everything in you can to win one (including beating teams by over 100 points). [b]Also, would we be so quick to call it classless if this team were one of our local teams?[/b][/quote] If they played in the manner that Yates plays to get this attention, then yes.

Just going by what the PA announcer said last night. BTW, what's Sam's largest crowd this year?

I was in attendance last night ( season ticket holder but that was just the 3rd game I have seen this year :-[). The alley oop dunk was one of the best I have ever seen. I agree, it would be a top 10 on ESPN. Lamar just can't handle the ball under pressure. Way too many turnovers. But my biggest pet peave is with Custer. That guy is weak underneath. He can't power anything to the rim. He constantly is getting the ball knocked from his hands or he is fumbling it himself while trying to go to the rim with it. Pathetic!

He was just counting the Texas St. fans, not the visiting teams fans. ;) ;D

[Hidden Content] Last night's attendance of 3,454 is the largest crowd so far this season in all of the SLC.

I have seen all 3 teams play (Spurger and Evadale both played Silsbee) and Spurger wins this district hands down. They have the better team and the better players. Evadale and SP will battel for second with the other getting 3rd. I can see SP defeating Evadale at their place. We'll see. Neither team will beat Spurger.

[quote name="Bucof2010" post="748821" timestamp="1264349008"] Walker and Joubert Hard to choose between Joubert and Sutherland Unless I missed somthing the player from Silsbee should be able to regain eligibility in three weeks  [/quote] Hill will be back for the last two district games, HF @ Silsbee, HJ @ HJ and then the playoffs. Pheal will miss @ HF, HJ @ Silsbee, WOS @ Silsbee, BC @ Silsbee and @ Orangefield along with already missing last Friday night's game at home against Orangefield which was a Tiger victory.

[quote name="speedkills" post="748814" timestamp="1264347522"] When Jeremy Johnsons highlight video coming out  ??? [/quote] Working on it. Soon.

[quote name="swag" post="748684" timestamp="1264289902"] Hj gets lucky again. I just got bad news that star point guard Phil Hill is inegible for the Tigers. D.C is already out. He's struggling to get his ankles healthy. Seems like Hj should get the win with Silsbee best 2 players out. But u never know, that's why they play the game [/quote] You are way late and not too accurate with this post. I posted before the game last night that Pheal (not Phil) Hill would be out for 6 games due to grades. This was discussed after the game as well last night on the game thread. Here's the thread: [Hidden Content] BTW, Pheal is not Silsbee's point guard, D.C. is. ;) Also, D.C. isn't out. He has played the last 3 games for Silsbee against WOS, BC and Orangefield. D.C. had 7 points and 11 rebounds last night playing just about the entire game. Swag, you may know about Kountze hoops, but you lack in knowledge elsewhere.

[quote name="bullets13" post="748685" timestamp="1264289969"] yup.  James showed up when it was too late to matter.  the horns have a ton of talent, but they need to do some regrouping.  neither of their losses were bad losses, but they were both to teams they should've beaten. [/quote] 100% agree.
