  1. They got enough...they wouldn't have committed if they did not deserve what they have received huh? ??? It's none of your business...They got what they deserved and they would not have committed if they felt as if they could have gotten more somewhere else. Both the player and the parents felt comfortable with what they offered. I'm not sure where the hostility/defensiveness came from. I didn't ask specifically what these two kids got. Just curious what a big school recruit can expect. I agree about going for a pair of shoes. I just thought some one here might know a little about college baseball scholarships. Geez Going thru this process currently w/ my son, the most I'm seeing is 85% at most D1 schools. After that, it can vary greatly. With the talent, and maybe even more importantly, the character all three of these young men have, I would imagine their offer was quite significant. I'm sure they all had other options. Congrats and best of luck to all of them.........even the future Aggie Statum. Great job to the SETexas SunDevils as well.
  2. What a game, what a catch ! Awesome stuff.
  3. What a great game. One of the best games I watched in years. Go 'Stros !
  4. Appreciate the update...too bad about the rainout.
  5. Congrats to Felts. Another great player w/ good character going to the Horns. HOOK 'EM HORNS !
  6. Maybe Matt will buy you dinner. Call me later. One of Kendall's Houston Heat buddies has transferred to Panola.
  7. What really sucks is that we couldn't keep em in state.
  8. Way to go Kirby ! Way to go Texas ! Great athlete and great kid. HOOK EM HORNS !
  9. You only got our attention because of your bogus stats, not that he was a good quarterback. Alot of passing yards could be 2,500 in 10 games. Far cry from 4,800. I threw for 7930 my senior year @ Channelview back in the day...........no wait, maybe it was 793 .
  10. Jay Burditt-( 2009 Barbers Hill ) has accepted a full ride to pitch at Galveston College. Congrats to Jay. Jay had to wait patiently during his junior year for a chance to pitch because of the four senior pitchers BH had at the time. He never complained and never quit working. It all paid off with an excellent season on the mound for the Eagles during his senior year. A well deserved scholarship...Jay is certainly one of the hardest working kids I've ever been around. A great kid w/ an excellent family support system. I look for Jay to really excel the next two years for the Whitecaps. Way to go Jay-Bird !
  11. I remember that game!That was the first PNG game that I had attended and PNG had the Dome filled up to rainbow seats when the Indians took the field and the indian chant started it was deafening! Then There was Stephenville with their propane tanks and ball bearings!! they didn't have near the crowd but the noise they created was equally loud! My son and I attended that game as well. Unbelievable atmosphere. IMO, PNG travels as well as anyone in the state.
  12. I could make the same argument for the Hill. Where did they finish the season last year? I think both schools watched the playoffs from the stands. Even though GCM took a beating from BH, don't make mountains out of mole hills. No comparison GCM year 2 BH year 80 ;D BH had a 8 year playoff run prior to the the last two seasons. GCM will get their it just isn't going to happen over night. No one expects it to happen over night. I just feel that this team will "compete" this year. They may not win a game, but I would be surprised if they are trounced like they were last year. You are right in that you can not compare GCM with BH. GCM is in a school district with 3 high schools and 5 jr highs. The jr highs do not run the same system the high schools run. Not one high school has a "true" feeder school. That is one jr school goes only to one high school. Most are split. BH, on the other hand, is a single HS with a single JH. Those kids run the varsity system from youth to the day they graduate. It does make a huge difference. I agree. I also know of the talent base in the GCM district and it is high! GCM will do nothing but make this district stronger and more respected as the years go on. KP will also get there. The only thing that this district lacks is TRADITION!! with the exception of Dayton and BH it just seems that the district lacks this along with the pride that follows tradition. I don't know the history of the other schools, but I know Crosby has been around forever like BH and I wonder why I don't sense the tradition for Crosby as you can plainly see at Dayton or BH? It may just be me ??? My wife taught and coached cheerleading at CHS back in the late 80's, early 90's. Crosby was LOADED in those days and made the playoffs every year it seemed. I remember going to College Station, the Astrodome and being a part of some really good football seasons. It seems to me that the school is used as a "stopping" off point for head coaches. Back then, Ronnie Davenport was a fixture for the Coogs and was there until he got sick in the early 90's. Since then, the school has had several different head coaches. You can not obtain an identity when you have to re-create yourself every few years. Maybe Flannigan is there for the long haul and we'll see CHS stay on top for years to come. There are also some hard feelings between the Old School factions in Barrett Station and the new parts of Crosby. Still some people upset over the merging of Drew and Crosby. The same thing happened at Sterling. No stability in the head coaching position. Lots of tradition's get lost when you have a revolving door policy with your head coach. Lee will experience some of that this year when the new coach removes the Gander from their helmets again. Well said...Ranger. You are absolutely correct.
  13. Ditto. BH had some very strong teams back in the day...championship-caliber teams.
  14. Quite an honor indeed. Congratulations and best of luck.
  15. Congratulations. Well deserved. Tell Hales hello for me.
  16. About time. Clay is having an excellent season. Go make Angelina proud. ;D
  17. When did this happen? I haven't heard anything about that. Both schools websites show to have the same coaches they have had for a while. Solis at Galveston and Nottebart at Wharton. Where is this information you have coming from? ??? ??? ??? From within the inner baseball circle.
