Where are these 2 lakes ? I've fished down in the Neches for years but never knew the names of the lakes down around I-10 other than Lake Bayou and 10 mile.

I got to see Evadale a couple of times last year and they were solid.They should win this district without much trouble.

Evadale should be favored at home but I don't think it will be by a lot.The Rebels are pretty much playing to their strengths now and thats about all they can do.If they control the boards and don't turn the ball over against the press they win,if they turn it over it's a toss up.

It's not unusual fo the basketball only schools to have an advantage early in the season.That is usually gone before christmas, after that the clubs are pretty much even as far as preparation goes.

Spurger wins ?????Now I'm confused !!!!

True, It's not that I haven't given the Rebs credit.I have said many times they have a good club.I have seen them play several times and have offered an objective opinion.I saw them play Cayuga, a good 1-a school and get beaten pretty soundly.I saw them get beaten badly against HJ and lose a game to Kountze that a good senior led club should have won.They beat a Spurger club that was without their best player and a young Goodrich club at home.So to answer your question "If they beat Leggett will I give them the credit they deserve?"The answer is yes I will give them the credit they deserve,will that make them a better playoff team? You tell me, evidently I don't know much about the game, but I will wish them well in the playoffs.

Warren ,Hardin ,Deweyville and Anahuac split .Hardin beat Kountze and EC.Warren played EC within 4 at EC.There were some very good teams in the district that year and they beat each other up on a regular basis.

I agree 100% east texas bb.Probably not a good idea to compare anyone in the college arena to a high school coach.They are completely different worlds.

How many times did Woden beat em when he was there ??

It would be completely different issues here anyway between high school and college.The college game is alot closer to a business than most people realize.Buddy Ryan was a great football coach but do I agree with his use of the profanity laced tirades,nope.That doesn't make any less of a coach but it also doesn't make him any more of one either.

Woodville may be missing the 600 win coach more than they thought they would.What is their record now?

Come on True it was a win over Sabine Pass, following a loss to Hull Daisetta.Evadale has a playoff team this year but I don't see them making huge strides in the playoffs.They won't see many teams like Sabine Pass or Hull Daisetta in the playoffs.Just curious,have you ever been to a game in Leggett?If not you're in for an experience.Don't be surprised if the coach is buying popcorn for the officials.

This shouldn't come as a surprise to anyone.If you continually bring on JUCO players cohesiveness is a problem.In todays D-1 world everyone is talented,the difference usually is on the bench.I like Roc but it's time for a change.

Even the number with 2 teams making the playoffs so there won't be a layoff or make it mandatory for the district champs to have a warm up game against another district champ in a different classification.A lot of districts have a champion that isn't real strong so 4 clubs would make a joke out of the playoffs.

Anahuac had Larry Rivon and Mayes that year.Every club in the district that year was capable of beating each other

When you graduate 6 starters from 1-a club there is definitely going to be some rebuilding.The first things the Rebs will see is defenses geared to taking away Murphy from the perimeter.If he spends a ton of time this summer working on creating his own shot he can be successful.The defense you described is one of the oldest in the game, has lots of names but most call it a box in one.When played correctly it can defend the middle very well if the offensive club doesn't have anyone else that can shoot the mid to long range jumper.The Rebels should be congratulated for their win but don't read more in to it than it was.It was a win against a club who couldn't match up with them.

Is Colby any kin to Robert Price ? Robert was a great player back in the 70"s for the Lions.He was an old friend of mine, I haven't heard from in years.

Just a couple of points, a high school pitcher who throws straight fastballs better have an excellent defense and anyone who is picking the Warren kids last doesn't know the kids.These kids are young but have played baseball year round since they were in elementary school.They will make the playoffs this year in 24aa.

I can tell some of you had never been to Leggett,it's an experience to say the least.

Does EC and Anahuac play again??If so you could wind up in a 3 way tie.Kountze isn't as strong as they have been in years past and West always has the Panthers ready to play.

Great atmosphere for this one, depth was the key.The Tigers had fresh legs in the 4th and the Hawks were a half a step late.The double technical call was interesting to say the least.It had no bearing on the outcome as both clubs hit 1 of 2.I didn't think you shot a double tech.I thought it went to the possession arrow,somebody help me out on this one  ??? ???

If a person never uses profanity then it will not "slip out". If a coach were to use profanity in the classroom, then he would be fired. The field or court is an extension of the classroom. [/quote]I dont use profanity but I have mashed my finger before and things have "slipped out"....or said something in a moment of anger....thats what I was refering to. [/quote] Would I be correct in assuming that L.H. never, never, never said anything except "come on boys, try harder:  I know you can do it"? [/quote]L.H. was as intense as any coach who ever got in the box but he didn't have to do a lot of cussing to get his players attention.They all knew what was expected of them and would play above themselves,maybe out of fear sometimes.I don't think you could find one that didn't respect him.

Unless you're quoting a definition  ;D ;D ;D

Great game coming here.The Horns are due a let down after wins over A&M,Kansas on the road and Mizzou but these Horns are better than I ever thought they would be.The 5 point home court advantage makes this one a toss up.I like Texas depth so I'll pick them by 3.
