This one is an important one for him to win.

big time playoff implications in this one. L-town is currently in 4th, only 1 win up on Vidor, who still has the Jasper bye left on their schedule. There are several scenarios left for the 4th spot in this district, as Lumberton finishes their season away to Vidor. A win here for Lumberton would shift several of those scenarios in their favor, especially if Vidor can't pull off the upset vs BC. There's also a slim, but doable chance for Lumberton to make it up into a tie for 3rd with WOS, but that becomes just about impossible if they don't win tonight.

I miss those years where it was HJ/Silsbee fighting it out for district every year and then competing to make it to state. HJ has obviously dropped off some in the last 10 years or so, and Silsbee has gotten even better, but the whole landscape of 4A basketball is skewed due to all the houston teams in our region, combined with having to face the dallas teams if you make it to state.

district is waaaaaaay down, though. The games might be a little closer, but a fraction of the team Silsbee is fielding this year could easily win this district, and will next year as well unless something crazy happens. That said, the playoffs will get interesting earlier than usual for the tigers.

agreed. he's turned things around nicely at HF, and fielded consistently solid teams the last few years. He also comes with two sons who coach, not sure if they'd be a part of the package or not, but wouldn't surprise me. I'd hate to lose him, but at the rate he's applying for other jobs I'm sure he'll get picked up by somebody soon.

Not sure what they offered to replace them with, but if it’s not something that’s anchored to the walls I can understand why they said no. Those type of hang on goals are very common in little dribblers. A moveable standup goal can fall (especially when the bigger kids start trying to dunk on them), has to be stored on site, and also in most gyms wouldn’t fit under the 10 ft goals in place and the base would be in the court of play. Now if they’re offering to buy 10k adjustable units that hang from the ceiling then that’s a different story

If they lose the next one we’ll hear all about it though 🙄

Hoping you’re right.

Sounds like a good one. Both teams having really good seasons. It’s a shame there are AAU teams waiting for them in the playoffs, although some of the houston teams are down.

That Fairfield squad has been something really special the last 5 years.

Disappointing. I’ve been paying monthly for about 3 years now, even in the summer, since it’s been such a useful service. I guess it’s time to cancel. I can always renew during football if they decide to actually show some games.

they don’t need to rush and make a bad hire. but your post makes it sound like you think Nederland and their applicants are on the same time frame, which is not the case. Those guys are applying at other places, so Nederland better figure out who they want quick, or risk losing them to another job. So while I agree with you that it’s critical that Nederland hires the right guy, it’s also critical that they make the hire before the right guy takes a job somewhere else.

They better hurry up if I’m reading this right. I highly doubt any truly quality candidates are going to be sitting on their hands waiting for a phone call from Nederland. They’re going to keep applying at other places.

Is it just me or are they cutting way down on the games they’re showing? I haven’t used it in awhile. I use NFHS, and usually on a game night I can find three or four games to pick from, sometimes twice that. I have most of our local teams under my schools list, and the next local game I have showing up is HJ/Silsbee jv soccer on February 28th @AggiesAreWe

The dem mayors of those states aren’t a fair representation of how the majority of those states feel (well, besides California). This issue has a great shot at turning them back red in the next elections.

Biden is over a barrel right now. He either backs down and let’s the republicans win on this matter, or he openly uses the military to forcibly open the border back up to the flood of illegal immigrants coming in

Fun times we’re living through.

Doesn’t get any easier for them. next two are at #21 byu Saturday and home Vs #4 Houston on Monday

Texas with their second big win in a row. Follow up a buzzer beater win at home over top-10 Baylor with a 15-point win on the road against OU.

Nice to read all the responses. I don’t know the right answer, but I do know there’s been a lot of over appraising property values to drive up taxes in my area.

you're neglecting the fact that you claimed that this team is the same as the last two teams, which is obviously not the case. That is not a fact. That's not even an opinion, it's just completely wrong. you aren't offending anyone, but many of the posters on this site don't necessarily agree with your "facts", especially since all you do is complain about the teams you "support" and talk as negatively and badly about them as possible in about 90% of your posts.

I want to hear your guyses thoughts on this, as admittedly this is far from something I know much about. A democrat in Nebraska has introduced a state bill which would consider a local county's assessed property valuation the same as an offer to purchase that same property for the amount they valued it at, if the homeowner decides to sell. Basically, whatever the county appraises your house value at, they're obligated to match that value and purchase the house if you choose to sell it at that price. For those of us who have consistently been screwed by the county over valuing our properties so that they can overtax us, this seems like a really nice weapon to use against them. That said, I know this would cause issues in other ways, but it sure would be nice for it to reign in over valuations.
