:-X :-X

IMHO, The HF coach did a better job tonite of coaching. His subbing was better.  The HF defense looked confused at times but that was lack of communication, I think. Slow game.

[quote name="cbosha" post="958926" timestamp="1296593508"] Bluedove, where do you think your kids rank in the state? [/quote]Hmmm? According to Adidas and several others the 8th grader is top 5 in the nation. The 9th grader I have no idea.

[quote name="cbosha" post="958940" timestamp="1296594746"] Dove how do your kids rank? [/quote]I don't rank kids. But there are several rankings for them and you know which ones are pretty close after awhile. I've seen these kids for 4 years or more and know what they can do and their weaknesses.  ;)

[quote name="stevenash" post="958918" timestamp="1296593191"] DOVE- out of those thirty, how many have u seen play several times?  Surely u aren't simply reading from a ratings sheet, are you? [/quote]The Houston kids? Been watching these kids for four years ;) The Dallas kids would be my OPINION,as I stated earlier ;)

[quote name="stevenash" post="958900" timestamp="1296592179"] I have enough faith and confidence in the dove that I will bet $100 on the longhorns tonite.  If someone wants to accept this bet, contact. Lazeek as I am away from computer for while.  The only stipulation I would like to add is if the bettor loses and fails to promptly settle his debt, he agrees to be banned from the board.  I await to hear from someone via lazeek. [/quote] :D

I'll hold your $500 for free!

[quote name="speechless" post="958842" timestamp="1296589471"] aint nobody on here qualified to determine how he ranks in the state now that is a FACT! [/quote]I could give you 30-40 names from the Houston area (a fact) and about 30+ just from Dallas area (opinion) ;)

[quote name="LAZEEK" post="958841" timestamp="1296589382"] Dove you have tons of faith in the young upcoming players from HF, but you have no faith in the coaching that goes on over there!!!!  Is the coach changing or is the scenery changing for the Dove???? ;D ;D [/quote]LOL!

[quote name="Bobcat05" post="958827" timestamp="1296588807"] Depends on who you ask, can't say his opinion is wrong because your OPINION is right.  ::) [/quote]Doesn't really matter because in the end the 2014 class, including  guards, wings, etc will be thrown into the same circle in 2013 and 2014 college scouting reports. ;)

[quote name="stevenash" post="958819" timestamp="1296588686"] [quote author=team first link=topic=76916.msg958805#msg958805 date=1296588178] Seen him play, not best 10-15 in the state. Not strong enough, can't put it on floor good enough, does not defend 1on1 well enough. Has potential to be very good! Alot of good kids in the state..Top 50???????? Who knows, good for our area, yes! We've got to get out more. H.J. likes him. [/quote] Tough to evaluate a kid unless you have seen all the top  players multiple times and I don't know many who have the time and/or inclination to do so.  Also tough to judge a kids ability to defend one on one when his team uses a trapping zone defense.  Perhaps he "doesn't put in on the floor" good enough because the team objective does not call for that and hence, not much practice at doing so. If you are 6'4" at age 15, there is a good chance you haven't reached your peak in terms of co-ordination and mental toughness.  I would guess that would apply to a number of 15 year olds who are good enough to be starting for their respective varsities.  I will happily pay him this compliment- He has the intellect to realize that he should play within himself (and within the team objective) and not get caught up in the oft mistaken tendencies of some to define how well they play by the number no look passes and triple pump layups they execute or possibly try to execute. [/quote]HJ has a good system for their kids, I agree. ;D

[quote name="BADSANTA" post="958814" timestamp="1296588509"] Silsbee just had a 6'10 kid enroll in school today from Dallas. He is a junior. [/quote]I hope he's not from the Bahamas ;D

[quote name="BADSANTA" post="958796" timestamp="1296587799"] Bosha is good! He is a unique talent. Sounds like he has a strong family up bringing as well. I'm sure he will leave a mark at HJ for years to come. He is a top 10-15 freshman talent in the state. He needs to contiune to learn how to not shot those threes from the 3rd row of the bleachers though lol [/quote]Nah, he's good but not top 15 in State

Sheez! Aren't they playing each other tonight? Any predictions or analysis. Don't these two teams still have a chance for that 3rd spot?

Bosha is good. Can you imagine how it would be if he transferred to HF for the title run about to happen. ;D

A&M need to move to the Southland Conference.

[/quote] This is a sad thing too!! There ARE other sports than football!!! I personally don't know English but I have yet to hear one negative thing about him. That in itself says a whole lot about the man and the type of coach he is. Especially on THESE forums :) Congratulations Coach English for standing up for your players and the sport you love. Because you care for your players and sport, it will succeed more than it has already!! Other coaches could/should take note!!! [/quote]I don't think they heard you! Say it louder.
