[quote name="Savant19" post="1393842" timestamp="1365810346"] Yep, couldnt get in to Bellaire  . . . .quota already met. City of Bellaire 2% black population . . . . . all black bball team. [/quote]And Bellaire's baseball team also has no problem meeting their quota. ;)

I guess it is is official, a Houston media outlet has reported the new transfer to Nederland. Get rid of one shooter and they gain another. They just reload.

[quote name="Stevenash" post="1394446" timestamp="1366037959"] Do you provide that same type of assistance to Triple A and Yates? [/quote] Nah, they are so well connected that they don't need any help  ;D

[quote name="Stevenash" post="1394437" timestamp="1366036838"] And thanks Dove for helping Zach get his scholarship. [/quote] No problem Nash!!! Just glad to have been some service to my fellow-man and get him out of the district.

[quote name="Big girl" post="1393929" timestamp="1365818947"] Maybe it is because she feels like you are always bashing her son, Zjori on this website. :o [/quote]Big Ol' Girl, I thought you already said it wasn't me bashing your cousin  :-\  Anyway, while some of you are on here complaining about S.E.Texas Gold team, RCS Sports has released their Spring rankings for the class of 2013-2016. And these rankings were distributed at the Final Four from what I understand. You do the math, Big Ol' Girl!!!

Christina don't speak to me.

[/quote] Uhmmmm.... uh, 49. ;) ;D [/quote] Even though I watched him play a number of times, I  don't know the exact age of  Mr. Carrier when he graduated hence, the "approaching 50" remark.  Have seen a number of young men graduate at 17, 18. and 19. [/quote] and 20  >:( ::)

Its okay Big ol' Girl, I'm just mess'n with you.

[quote name="Big girl" post="1393767" timestamp="1365795316"] Blue Dove....What meds? ??? [/quote] See, you have proved my point  ;D

[quote name="beast123" post="1393726" timestamp="1365787325"] Elam should have got it hands down  8) ;D :D [/quote]Yep! Another good choice.

[/quote]I didn't know the guy. No comment!!!!!

I bet DV may have more details. DV??? Where you at?

[quote name="freeze 1914" post="1393639" timestamp="1365774862"] I remember Mac being at Waltrip to. Wasnt Falu like 20 years old when he was at Waltrip? That was the story going around at the time. [/quote] I thought he 21... ;D

[quote name="Big girl" post="1393634" timestamp="1365773664"] Blue Dove I know what you are trying to do and its not going to work this time.... ;) [/quote]  Hey, at least you have to admit it worked at 50%  ;)  Got you out the closet (again).

[quote name="Hupernikomen" post="1393562" timestamp="1365728401"] That was a good read.  Worth the 15 minutes of entertainment. How many of those on the 1st and 2nd team play AAU?  What are their AAU rankings? [/quote] Definitely the majority on the list  play for summer teams. At least 4 players play on shoe sponsored teams.

[quote name="AggiesAreWe" post="1393431" timestamp="1365688872"] I think WO-S's Page (Q) is a very underrated player. I don't think he realizes just how good he really is. If Q ever asserts himself, he can dominate a game. [/quote]One of the few times I will ever agree with you -embrace it!! ;)

See, this is what I'm wondering about this 1 st team list and why some people are upset. Is the argument because some players have a higher scoring avg? Lets compare Bosha and Torry @ Central or Q at W0-S. All are very good players, but each one with different team dynamics and roles. If Johnson (HJ)had not been suspended, would he have been a 1st choice would have made 1st team based on the bigger role he would played for HJ? Both Torry and Q could probably also avg. 20 ppg, but their roles, unselfish play, other scorers on the team dictate they didn't  have to.  Torry is being looked at by major D1 schools already. I also think Q may have what it takes as well, if given the proper arena to showcase his talents. But both are very unselfish players.

[/quote] This guy TORCHED the best of the best at the Fonde Rec Center in Houston in the summers. Regularly played on the NBA court with the pros, and was ALWAYS one of the best on the floor.  I am telling you, he was and STILL IS THAT good. [/quote] Any idea why he never got a chance to play for a living.  Surely there were people "in the know" who would have gotten him a chance. [/quote] He played for the Globetrotters at one time, but no one other than that wanted to take a chance on an unproven guy...He was an awesome talent...In high school, could never get his grades together at Kashmere HS, and STILL received an opportunity to play junior college ball and lasted one month...He was just a guy that never "got it" until it was too late...Has been working for the City of Houston, at the Fonde Rec Center for almost 20 years now.. [/quote] Never met him but have heard about him. I've got some fond memories from Fonde Rec. Kinda off subj. but I remember some guys got into a dispute and one guy was thrown into the window and shattered it....ouch!!

I've known college players who could hoop their butts off in the playground. Put them in an organized setting, they became a non-factor. Mental game was bad and did not understand the game

So, here are my thoughts on this subject and Big Ol' Girl  ;) take heed to my knowledge.  Every kid on this list still has a lot of work to do. Ain't none of them made it. I don't care if a player was on 1st team, don't mean they have it made. Keep working!!! Keep the grind on!!! The academics are already set in place but nobody making anyone shoot 500 shots (oops! I mean 10 minutes of defensive slides) early in the morning or late at night. Thats up to the individual.

I'd like to think I helped push Zach into becoming the player he turned into.  ;D
