I didn't say Evadale was a bad team.I said it was easy to see why Spurger and Sabine Pass were the best 2 in the district.All I've heard about Evadale is a fuss about someone who moved and someone who quit.FYI ,if they both came back the Rebels are still no better than the 3rd place club in this district which is where they will be without them.One more observation,I didn't see anyone on last years Evadale club that could start for EC.So hopefully everyone is where they want to be so we can get the season started.I agree CATMAN,25-a could easily represent region 4 at the drum this year.

You young ladies get better every time out.Congrats on the win and good luck in the second half.I think this group has a legitimate shot at going deep in the playoffs.

I don't think this is what truth had in mind when he started this thread.It's easy to see why Spurger and Sabine Pass are the 2 best teams in this district.

Anahuac is the best club in the district followed by Hardin and then EC. Buna is a close 4th and then the seperation is pretty noticeable.Kountze would probably be the 5th pick follwed by the DVille club and Warren about a toss up with the pirates.Unfortunately the clubs are behind our neighbors to the north.Overall the talent seems to be down a little from last year.All the clubs seem to play hard and that's a tribute to the coaches and the young men.Wish them all the best the rest of the way.

The Warren girls look better each week.The hitters were putting on a show tonite.Congrats girls.

I forgot the answer to this question but over the weekend I had 102,000 plus remind me that OU SUCKS : : :

Man this thread took a turn for the worse.

The kids high school coaches have a huge impact but let's face it there isn't a ton of D-1 talent at the local level.That being said there are a lot of kids that can play at the smaller schools but there is little scholarship money available at the JUCO level and none at the D3 level.When some kids see they are going to have to pay for there own education the go to the school of their choice and forego any future basketball dreams.Once you get past the top teir it's alot about who you know because the players are pretty equal.

The biggest concerns I have is the knicks the dual players take and absolutely destroys early season chemistry.That's why you see so many small school teams that don't play football excel early and hen fall off mid season.Everyone else catches up to them.

The 5 out is definitely a shooters set.The spacing is the key and you can flash anyonyone to the post to start the sets.The key is the same as any other offensive set,you have to have a guard who can handle the ball well enough to put pressure on the "D"

I love to watch the scramble when it's ran right.If you have the speed on the off side you and can make your first trap close to the baseline it can be very effective.You will give up some easy baskets as you do with any press but the good definitely outweighs the bad.

When you watch a group of kids grow up together and acomplish a goal ,whether it be a basketball championship, or any other sport it has to be a lot more satisfying than watching a team that changes significantly from year to year.On the original question I think you play whoever is on the schedule regardless of who it is.You honor your committments whether there good or bad.

It definitely won't help them.How much it hurts will depend on the AD that runs the show.The 2 sport athletes will be a little behind and a little banged up which will lead to some slower starts than they have had in the past.The AD is the absolute key to the long range success or continued success of the program.

I've been around the game a LONG time and I've never seen an easy win at Big Sandy. :D

Hardin wins this one by 3 TD'S with or without Mitch.

I'm not from Anahuac and haven't seen them play this season,from what I saw last year and the speed they had returning I think they should be the favorite.

Spurger is DivI Finally found the alignments on the UIL site.Cayuga is in Region3 this year Div 1 so a Spurger matchup would have to come at the state tourney.

If you're in Iraq you can back anyone you want to.Thanks for all you guys do.

I think Anahuac has to be the favorite.The rest of the clubs you mentioned are all pretty even and there will be one pretty good club on the outside looking in.The best race is gonna be on the other end of the standings between Deweyviile,Kountze and Warren these 3 are almost a dead heat but will at least make for some interesting ball games.

Hey stats guru H-D has lost two games not three. [/quoteExcuse me there double nickle it was a typo.I predicted a bobcat win I thought that would be enough. geez!!

I'm not sure,help us out here court side.

I think they are in this region.I think them and Spurger would have a very entertaing ball game.We may get to see that matchup for a trip to the drum.
