    Is this within UIL rules? [b]I am pretty sure you can't have an early release for an athletic event. [/b] Ozen's Jeff Nelson was suspended for having a practice during normal school hours. How is this any different? Kids are getting out of class for sports.

    You're "pretty sure you can't have an early
    release for an athletic event."  Tell us, bobbymc, upon what do you base that belief?  Did you contact the UIL and determine that it's against the rules?  Did you contact any of your contacts in YOUR LOCAL school system and get their opinion?  What, bobbymc, what?  It happens regularly in all school districts - so apparently ignoring the UIL is more widespread in Texas than any of us ever imagined.  S T R E T C H  and S T I R, bobbymc. ::) 8)

    Johnson doesn't make the team!! Yeah he was a key player for HJ but just because he out doesn't mean we suck! HJ is still a REALLY good team. And if Zjori and Travis play like they did last night and [b]make ever[/b]y [b]3 they shoot [/b] and if Dylan Mase is aggressive like he was last night then we will have a really good chance at winning! And Thursday night may be the last game for HJ, but [b]when our boys really want to win [/b] [b]they do! [/b] They can win this game as long as they [b]play their butt off![/b] And when we do win, that will show all of y'all that Johnson doesn't make the team! And i will be telling everyone that ever doubted HJ [b]"I told you so!!"[/b][/quote] [b]If Johnson was playing it would be the same outcome.[/b]

    HJ can WIN!! If i recall we beat Ozen by 2 points and lets see hmm Yates lost to Ozen by 2 points! HJ has a chance!

    HJ and Ozen have not played this year.

    AAW, that's just a minor detail.  It shouldn't detract from the sentiment of the post. ;D

    WOW i liked nelson too he was on his way to bringing the program back but HOPEFULLY Rodney Saveat can hire someone out of the area this time Ozen need a REALLY good coach
    [/quote]

    I hope Central and Ozens new coach come from out of the area but I seriously doubt it...
    [/quote] I'm only asking but why would you prefer someone out of the area?
    [/quote]
    Because the chances are better that they will not be related to Rodney. 8)

    Any truth to the rumor that Yates may be dropping to 2A in the next re-alignment so they can win another classification and get a shot at Kountze?  :D
    [/quote] Actually, I think Yates would prefer Kountze move up to 3-A and take care of all the local area 3-A wannabee champs.  :D
    [/quote]

    I have heard that the Miami Heat want Lamar to move up to the NBA so they can handle them too.
    [/quote]
    On reputation alone with the UIL, Yates can play in whatever classification that they would like to.  So, they dropped down to 3-A for a couple of years to cement their record (in an "Off-recruiting year") but they expect to be back up to 4-A or 5-A when the 6th level comes in.  Don't worry about Yates; they have a way of getting theirs. 8)

    If Coldspring won its district, I am guessing they had a bad night against Nederland for the score to be that lopsided.
    [/quote]


    Coldspring did not win their district. Cleveland did.

    Do not know anything about how that particular game went.

    First game @ Cleveland:  Cleveland won 81-
    76.  Second game at Coldspring:  Cleveland won 72 - 61.

    This EC team is not the same team that BS beat at the BEGINING of the season.  EC had just started playing basketball, new offense, defense, coach, and 2 starters out with injury.  This team has come together as a group.  Each member of the current starting 5 have been a high scorer for at least one game and several of the bench players have been high scorers this season.

    Could EC beat BS now?? Don't know and neither does anyone else...  The rankings are based on now and you lose a game and you drop in the polls.  That is how this "unfair" world works.
    [/quote]
    I have only casually paid attention to EC basketball this season so I'm unable to refute any accurate points that you make in this statement.  I find it plausible that each of the five starters has been "high-point" for the game this season.  What seems to be a stretch is that SEVERAL of the bench players have also been high-point for the game.  Now, assuming that EC is carrying 12 on the varsity, that leaves seven on the bench - not considering foul-outs.  Could you be more specific in you quantity of SEVERAL?  And when you find the specific number would you please name them - just for the sake of clarification, I mean.

    Dickie- I have a great idea- abandon your " schtick" for a while and see if the board participants receive you more warmly- it certainly couldnt hurt to try it.
    [/quote]
    Here's another idea.  DickieV - just go AWAY!  Tend to your college team business and get on a forum where ever you are.  Make EVERYBODY happy. 8)

    Coby Roddy - LCM, probably the best Sophomore pitcher in the area.

    Why is he the best?

    Better yet - what possible difference does it make in ANYTHING who the best sophomore pitcher is in this area or anywhere else in the world?

    wish i could attend that H-D game. hear they have a player with a 45 inch vertical leap!  :P
    [/quote]
    Hey Mr. BG, you may have transposed.  I heard it was a 54" vertical leap.  That's only
    6" shy of a full five feet - but seems about right for Hull-Daisetta.  Verify it with HD 55.  He knows all things Hull-Daisetta - and if not, he'll make it up. ;D 8)

    Playactionpass,

    If high school kids only play to get to the next level, what happens to the 98% of the team that doesn't make it? If you think those kids are only out there to go play in college, you are nuts.  Those kids play to win games at the 4A high school level.  A coach with no credentials, but with college connections, will not help them win at the 4A level.  If they hire Brown, it will simply be a brother in law type deal and Central will continue to flop around in mediocrity.  The need to hire a credentialed high school coach, not a college position coach with "connections".
    [/quote]
    Scat, Scoop, Squat - whatever!  I seldom (in fact I think this is the first time) agree with
    you on ANY subject.  But, I do on this subject.  The brother-in-law connection (and in some cases, the nephew connecton) is too prevalent in the BISD - and it has been for a few years now.  To fix the alleged head
    coaching problems in BISD, a look one level above will be necessary.  Now that Uncle Thomas is gone maybe that is a possibility. 8)

    This is getting ugly quick, proves 4 playoffs teams is too many. ::) What was you thinking UIL?
    [/quote]

    Solo,

    That just about sums it up......  :-[  I remember a few years back when this district had three teams in the top 20(Ozen,Central & Livingston). I can see having three teams make the playoffs when you have a district that strong. Four is pushing it to expect to have a competative game between a 1st place team and a fourth place team. Congrats to the other 20-4A teams. Ozen, Central and Vidor all advanced!
    [/quote]
    I guess I'm one of the few that think 4 teams in the playoffs is a good thing.  (Or at least not a negative thing) There are a few good districts out there that in some of those years like LR2014 noted have solid teams in at least the top 3 spots.  The majority of teams play some sort of "warm-up" game anyway...and any #1 views this as a warm up, but still has to keep their guard up.  #4 seeds are always hopeful and most play hard, but its not a realistic expectation for #4 seeds to prevail...so what's the big deal?  A warm-up game with a price if you don't stay on your toes.
    The UIL thinks its a good deal...lower classifications are adding an additional team to the playoffs next year.
    [/quote]

    Agreed! Not sure why some get angry about 4 going. At the end of the day you have to beat everyone to be #1. Plus there have been plenty of upsets in round 1 of any athletic competitions to keep the 4's in there.
    [/quote]
    Yeah???  List the ones that you know of and go ahead and Google the records to try to find others. ??? 8)

    Markain is a very good athlete no doubt about it. He has an opportunity to get the rest of it lined out. I hope he does but if not he will have a long and very hard road ahead of him.  As for Juan Lamar got a steal but the fact is that Lamar football has been going backwards and is in serious trouble.
    [/quote]
    Thanks for your SUPPORT of Lamar football,
    <>-J.  Statements like yours really help the program.  Let's hope that Juan gets a lot of FG and EP kicking attempts! 8)

    Kind of surprised that they would just cancel the game and not try to find another facility. But I was more surprised they chose HBU facility to begin with.

    Yates needs to come over here and play. Could play game at Ford Arena.
    [/quote]
    What do you want to bet that Yates already has another game lined up at some facility in Houston?  How do you get to this point and not have Houston Baptist on board for the date and event?  This is some of that inner-city BS!  Let's hear it DickieV - I know you will have an excuse for Yates. :(
    [/quote]


    Actually, this is all on HBU. They were on board to host but now has decided it is too big a game for them to host. HBU pulled the plug on this game, not Yates.
    [/quote]
    Thanks for the clarification.
