That would be the point. They are ALREADY committed to doing the YMBL. Not sure they would want to tackle another event. One that doesn't do girls games. But they aren't the only hosts. YMBL has lot's of workers for that tourney. It's not all BISD, that's for sure. I would be shocked if BISD would take this on.

I really like this idea. But, some school over here would have to take the role of "host school". Coach Coleman at Sulpher is the man that's running this gig and Sulpher HS has been the host school for both years. No other schools over there (including McNeese, outside of using their facility) is helping run this thing. Even the concessions and hospitality at the Legacy Center is strictly the Sulpher booster club. No McNeese concessions were open during the two days. Not sure anyone over here wants to take on that role.

Only real mismatch out of the 13 games were the Hardin-Jefferson/Peabody, Orangefield/Fairview and Summer Creek/Capitol games. Even though a couple of the games ended up blow outs (Kountze, Barbers Hill) those two games were still very competitive games throughout. One thing that stood out to me yesterday, the Texas teams had much much better guard play than the Louisiana teams, minus the Avoyelles Charter team. They had two very good guards. One in particular. I would put him as one of the best I have seen play this year. If I remember correctly, I believe it was a pretty even split last year between the two states. In fact, Fairview beat Orangefield last year. I think it's worth it. Let's the kids play in an arena style setting. I hope it continues.
