Also, let's not forget that Silsbee JV has an excellent coach in Coach Ira Brooks. Man has been so loyal to Silsbee through it all. Could easily have been a head coach elsewhere.

That’s a fact. 

Mitchell would have “Red Rovered” the heck out of that lead.  You would have seen a whole different version of the “picket fence” that whole 4th quarter.  
 

Watch the Mustangs give Silsbee their biggest challenge in the 2nd half of district though (which could be simply less than 30 but still).

Is Kountze that good or has EC peaked?  EC played close games their last few games - some of which I thought would be blow outs.  

OF beat Kountze by 23 points then OF lost to EC by almost the same.  

This district is going to be interesting! 

When shots are falling Kountze can beat anyone.  When they aren’t, they will struggle (a la OF).  I’ve thought EC was the second best team in the district all year but they got a comfortable win in Winnie.  We will see how it goes Friday.  But there isn’t a great margin between any of the top 5 teams in that district (adding Anahuac and Buna).  Any can beat the other (even comfortably) on any given night.

Pretty sure the JV is a playoff team in this district.  That’s no knock on any other teams, it’s just that Silsbee has two teams worth of varsity talent.

I was thinking the same thing. I don’t remember wanting to go to a JV game where I didn’t have a rooting interest.  I’m really tempted to go catch a Silsbee JV game.  That group is about as dominant as it gets. 

Kountze is about to be a problem again.  

Ben Elliott with 23 & 10 to go over 2000 career points and become LCM’s all time leading scorer (passing Jason Throop).  He’s certainly the best LCM player (in my opinion) since Throop.

I think he was up for it a couple weeks in a row

He was and deservedly so.  IF he’s not the best player in the district now, he definitely should be the next two years.  But he’s putting up all state number as a sophomore.  There are some really fun kids to watch in this district.  Sells is probably the most exciting of the bunch.

Not too sure about the hangover part. Honestly these teams are pretty evenly matched and throw Hamshire Fannett in there as well. None of these teams have established themselves as truly dominant and I can't see anyone making it to the 3rd round. HJ is a little better than the rest, but nothing like they have been in the past.

Huffman is 0-3 now against HJ and HF (with HF winning by double digits on the road). Huffman also 0-2 against BC and LCM, two possible first round playoff opponents.  I would say they are the best of the rest in that district but a notch below the other two.  Definitely played the Hawks close twice though and should be commended.  

Sounds like one of those gut check wins after a bit of a big game hangover.  Wins like that build character.  Good for the Hawks.

Zac Sells hit a deep 3 with 4 seconds left to give Kountze the lead

Big time win for your Lions.  Basketball is better around here when Kountze is good.

The sad thing in all of this is the only secure document in D. C. is Epstein’s client list.

It would be even funnier if it weren’t true!

Any more Connel’s coming up? It seems like there has been one playing basketball for the past 10 or so years.

Not for a while.  Remi and Alex don’t have any kids yet to my knowledge and Garrison is the baby. 
 

I wonder how many they have combined. 12 years of varsity experience between the 3?

Still the big Dawg in that district!! 

Yep - to be the man, you gotta beat the man. 

Earl and Bubba are quietly sitting in a boat fishing, chewing tobacco, and drinking beer when Bubba suddenly says, “I think I’m gonna divorce the wife. She ain’t spoke to me in over 2 months.”

Earl spits overboard, takes a long slow sip of beer and says, “Better think it over buddy.  Women like that are hard to find.”

@TxHoops I need some criticism here for EC only beating Kirbyville by 2 lol

Fair enough 😂 Bums!

Unless BC finishes 2nd, I don't see them beating HJ or Hamshire-Fannett.

Idk, it’s happened before.

BC will win a playoff game

I think you might be right. 

Speaking of $13 million dollars, my understanding is that UNC has a $13m per year annuity that has been purchased.  From what I was told, the intent is for each scholarship player on the Men's basketball team to receive $1m per year from said annuity.  You can bet Kentucky, Kansas, Duke, and some others won't be far behind.

I believe Bridge City has a State Title.  How about Vidor?

I’m sure that had a lot more to do with Coach Chief whatever than Steve Worster.  I will say the man was smart enough to hand the ball off to the best running back in the country every play.
