Tried to tell em.

Kasen might already be the best player on the team team. He is next level distributing the rock and is an ELITE on ball defender.

I’m guessing half time wasn’t very pleasant for those Longhorns 😂

My wife never buys that one 😂

Mine is. I remember folks laughing and laughing last year. “Get back to me when they beat Silsbee or HJ” they said. I did. In year one. Oh and they also beat 30-2 Huffman to bounce them on their ear out of the playoffs. All with their best player on JV. One of these days I will be wrong on a HS basketball prediction. I mean I assume. Has to happen eventually. But I could be wrong. Livingston appears better than we gave them credit for. Huffman could finish 4th.

Go Hawks!

One will finish 3rd...

Still waiting. District starts Tuesday. I am willing to let you lose any amount of money you would like.

I think 20 points may be defined as a close game relatively speaking with this United team. When you have the #2 ranked kid in the Greater Houston area 2022 class in Arceneaux (who was #1 until Griggs moved back) and the #1 ranked kid in the 2023 class, and they aren’t the only D1 kids on the team, the talent level is through the roof. And they play well together. I’m not sure the last time our area had 2 or more high major kids on the same team.

We’ll see if he lasts. He’s approaching he last-rodeo status and I’m not talking about age.

That Gary guy can apparently play.

[Hidden Content] But did Paxton do enough to get a parting pardon from Trump???

Hmmm the “defensive effort” argument could be made in other spots in this thread. Sometimes when you carry the water, you pick your spots. You undersell him defensively. If you know Tic, you know you don’t play for him without performing on that end. I know Josh gets on him on the defensive end. I also know Joe has gotten on some of his “stars” on the defensive end. Brock rebounds the ball way above the mean on the defensive boards and has above average feet. His defense is fine. But if you are looking to nitpick his game, you’re right; that’s the spot. Same goes for Mr. Bush.

Not arguing that. (See comment above.) But I also remember some comments last year after that statement questioning its accuracy. Needless to say, I couldn’t have been less surprised he was the only other kid in the district to end the year D1.

This is very true. McClure last year was clearly the next best prospect in the district behind Bush, at least in my opinion (and I guess Tic Price’s). But there was also a next best to Secretariat each time he raced as well... As you stated, Bush’s (and Secretariat’s) don’t come around very often.

I remember last year I said McClure was the best player in the district not named Bush. I remember that drawing some comments and skepticism. Can someone remind me how many players in that district ended last year with D1 offers/signings and which conference they were signed to? I can’t remember.

Yessir. Took them to the playoffs back when only 2 got in. Think he left for Barber’s Hill maybe and then Nimitz later. Been at Nimitz a while now. His son Tyler played at Nederland with Weisbrod and could shoot the piss out of the ball. Great guy too.

I don’t know about unpopular, but could be inaccurate. The “most dangerous” team in the district has a better chance of missing the playoffs than winning the district. Just my opinion of course.

Not bad actually. Nimitz is pretty good this year. Beat a good Kingwood team and barely lost to a really good Bryan team. And they are always well coached with Nathan Toon steering the ship.

He doesn’t want any. I offered to give him every team in the district and I get Silsbee. Name his price and we can post the cash. He was going to PM me. Still waiting....

I like both and I like BC too. LCM will be in the playoff hunt too. But ultimately I think it’s Silsbee’s district. They might stumble a time or two though.

Still waiting on that PM. All you can eat.
