[quote name="mfd814" post="941331" timestamp="1294035214"] Need some new coaches.  There is talent coming up in the ranks.  [/quote]I agree. I think it's just a cycle where all the top schools hit a downturn at the same time. Time will tell with the new bunch coming up ...present day Freshmen class.

[quote name="dogs1218" post="941196" timestamp="1294021835"] the talent pool just isnt there anymore like it used to be.. Those schools used to have tons of basketball players to choose from [/quote]This subject matter was covered a few months ago about the talent level being down. I was surprised when I attended some local games. The lesser talent pool was starting to show right before Boutee left Ozen. DeCarlos Frank is probably the last kid I remember actually having true God given talent in basketball, IMHO.

[/quote] That is a MAJOR misconception. Private schools don't have to adhere to the same guidelines that public schools do.  Private schools can hire joe-blow the sacker at Market basket to teach Algebra if they want to. Now with that being said there are some very elite private schools but by and large the publics out do the privates in the area of quality of education.  [/quote] At Beaumont Legacy, they use Rosetta Stone for foreign languages.  They also have one of the highest rates of students going on to four-year universities, and they are not really even an elite private school.  Just because that private schools can hire Joe Blow doesn't mean that they do. [/quote]The majority of parents put their kids in Kelly to prepare them for college. Therefore, the school or schools like this will show a higher percentage going on to college ;)

It seems you never win anything in football. I say just scrap the entire program and make a 9 month long basketball season. This way you will have enough time to prepare for this Tiger butt wooping you will get on Janaury 14th. Let's play ball!!!! [/quote]Football is just something you do till basketball season gets here.

Some people are getting it.  This is what it has sounded like coming from several of the Silsbee faithful.  Glad you are finally opening your eyes to it!!!!! This is two good teams, both have great coaching staffs and quality players.  Both have tradition and experience.  Either team could win on either teams floor. Each city has their proud supporters and each has their idiotic supporters.............but the key is to be a realist and respect others as well!!!! Anxious for Jan. 14th to finally get here, and may the best team win!!!! [/quote]Be careful Silsbee. Read between the lines VERY CAREFULLY.

I think I just heard Lubbock beat Westbury Christian tonight. All other 3-A teams can turn off the lights, if this is true. You're playing for 2nd.

I think the people of Silsbee are tired of the arrogance expressed by HJ fans and the mere reference of HJ beating Silsbee this year is absurd. Stand up Silsbee fans. Don't take this beating from HJ this year. It's your year. I believe in you. HJ throwing in your face that their team is once again weaker but it won't really matter ;D

Yall been sipp'n too much eggnod

[quote name="mfd814" post="939794" timestamp="1293725603"] RCS is a nice site.  But they have not seen most of the players from this area, or the players here have not attended a RCS event, or one that RCS is at. [/quote]That's the whole point. You gotta be seen and evaluated against your peers. RCS has a Rep here in SETexas on its voting committee.

[quote name="east texas bb" post="939729" timestamp="1293712127"] Dont say that BlueDove.  That is heresy. JK The best PG is not the one that fits his team best, that is a blanket statement that could be said about any PG.  The BEST PG should be able to go to any team at any time and be able to create offense and play defense.   Attributes IMO:  A GREAT PG should be a leader on the court and off.  To have the following he will need to have great footwork, balance, and hand eye coordination. He should be able to contribute on all facets of the offense and the defense, he should be a threat from outside and a threat to penetrate and score at the basket or kickout to spot up shooters.  He should be able to pass beyond anything else. He should see the game before it happens, some belive this can be trained some believe it is innate.  He should be able to control the tempo of the game.  He should be able to hit FT's.  A good PG should be able to do it all.  A great defender, a great rebounder.  He should be an extension of the coach on the floor.  He should have a very good assists/turnover ratio.  Look at the two best PG the game has ever seen IMO:  John Stockton and Steve Nash, one is the all time leader in assist and steals, and one has 2 MVPS to his credit as well as having the highest shooting percentage of any guard over his career.  See Brian McCormick for percentages of shooting.   Im ready.   [/quote]Oh God!!!! Man, I was with you all the way UNTIL you brought in Nash and Stockton. Now we gotta hear from our own Stevie Nash. He'll probably want to throw in John Paxon (sp?) :D :D  But we are talking about high school point guards. ;)
