For you guys who were around back there, do any of those guys on one of the best SETX teams ever deserve a mention for HJ, the record shattering ‘91 team? Burke? Holmes? isabell? Who am I missing?

Well, I wonder if folks know that Bosha set the alltime scoring record at that school. So he legitimately has an argument IMHO…
I wonder if you know how many shots he took in comparison to some of the other guys. I would think Elam is one of the all time leading scorers at Silsbee too. He was also 20 years old and probably scored at least half of his baskets snowbirding (leaking out on defense and getting uncontested layups). Stats are great but you also have to watch the games. Bosha was great. But better than a few of those other guys, no way.

Bosha might have been better tho.
Bosha wasn’t even the best player in that district. Q was better in HS (and continued to be in college). Bosha is definitely after Donahue, Spears and Prudhomme (in no particular order). Probably some others I’m missing as well.

Congratulations to all of the young men and the young ladies who won. Awesome group of players on the first and second teams.
There are a few more who are right up there with this group.
Lots of talent in this area.
Exactly. When you only have 10, some quality ones will be left out. But still the best way to do it imo. Been the most prestigious honor in SETX for awhile now (in hoops anyway).

Solid hire. Hopefully he can build on their recent success.

Lol! I saw it before I saw this. Thank you my friend. My wife and I enjoyed your post while eating our lunch!

Wow lol
Holy smokes. I couldn’t get the game where I am so was watching game cast on phone. Just showed a single. Saw the replay earlier. Hate we lost but feel awful for Campbell. That kind of thing will mess with your head for a while.

This is interesting, has a guy whose team didn’t make the playoffs ever made an All Gold Team?
Good question.

I didn’t even know that was a thing anymore.

No Ragusa?
That’s my only real beef with the list. But I’m admittedly biased and all selected were certainly deserving. I would have had him on the second team.

Anyone care to give an opinion on the best from WOS?
I’m sure it was probably someone from further back but in the last 10 years or so, it’s Laquarious Paige for me.

Anyone have it?
That’s all I have. Not sure if there were any superlatives.

Speaking of that...I saw the Super Gold Team is out. Only took three months from the end of basketball season.
Saw that too but just a screen shot (couldn’t find a link). Gotta say, I do like the way those folks do their teams. 5 on first, 5 on second. Good list again. I would have liked to have seen a certain Bobcat on the second team in place of someone else from the district but they mostly got it right again. But that’s for a probable future thread.

Maybe where you're from, winning a gold medal and NBA titles is common enough to disregard? Maybe Hefner and Jamie Weaver would have dominated juco and southland basketball. We'll never know, but we do know that Weisbrod couldn't play at A&M or Houston because they didn't offer him a scholarship.
Everyone has their own opinions and that's what makes this fun. Hell, I once saw someone rank themselves top 10 all time at a school they didn't even go to. You never no what other people think and there's really no wrong answers.
In fairness, I remember big Colton taking 6’10” Tonny Trocha-Morelos to school in a game against A&M over Thanksgiving when he was a true freshman at New Orleans. He scored it 6 out of the 8 times he touched it on the blocks, despite giving up half a foot to the high major kid. The Privateers lost against that Aggie team with Daniel House and Alex Caruso but I remember watching the game with my son and father and hearing the ESPN guys gush about the freshman from Nederland.
And I wasn’t surprised at all. Saw him do the same thing the summer before his senior year against Myles Turner. Seems like he’s had (and still having) a decent career.
I won’t argue the guy from the peach basket era that won a medal and some nba titles. He would have to be all time Beaumont Enterprise super gold team with that resume. Not even Stephen Jackson, Perk, BJ, etc. have that combo of accolades.

Since everyone is down on Buna, I’ll say they make the playoffs and give the upper teams some trouble. Wilson is working hard and will get the most out of a scrappy squad.
Never a good idea to sleep on Buna. In that district, if you pick EC, Kountze, OF and Buna to be the 4 playoff teams, you will be right more often than you’re wrong.

Weisbrod was the mvp of the State his senior year. He was an undersized 4 at the next level so that dictated his offers. A 6-4 SG is more marketable at the collegiate level than a 6-5 (at best) PF. However, if it’s the best HS player, it’s gotta be Weisbrod. And I love me some Hef. As for the other guys, way before my time so can’t speak to them.
Colton is also on the very short list of best players in SETX in the last decade. -

So who gets to claim j covan pa or Kelly
kinda like troop. Lcm or hj.
Me and Persia had our battle s from jh thru high school. I loved competing against him.
I would say both. If have to pick, where they graduated. But Throop is easily the best I’ve seen at LCM. He’s top 10 at HJ.

Speaking of kelly
where does Edward persia fall?
Pretty high. He was one of my wife’s students when she taught at Kelly, so I kept following him at Princeton. Obviously that list begins and ends with J’Covan but is Persia #2? I can’t think of anyone I would put in front of him. Little Langston has a shot.

Sports writers are already talking about sec baseball wasn’t as tough as they made them out to be..
Going to be tougher in a couple of years. Have 2 of the 3 best programs in the sport’s history in the same conference. Those LSU-Texas series should be crazy fun.

Knew I was forgetting someone big. He WAS on that team. As was Clay Davis. Not only were they one of the most prolific scoring teams in Texas history, they produced some dang fine coaches. And what a coaching staff.
