The best I have seen maybe. To my aggy friends, bring marshmallows to the dumpster fire. It really does help. We speak from experience.

Wow. That IS impressive.

Darion Chatman, Tre Keller and David Hernandez are all sophomores with game.

San Augustine continues to impress. That's a 4A regional team they just beat ;)

Just showed Tom Penders talking to team before game in postgame highlights. He is sporting maybe the sweetest fro I have ever seen on a white dude.

Then it's exactly the kind of game to be expected...

Texas up 15 with min left. Ridley one block away from the triple double. 19 pts, 11 Rebs, and 9 blocks.

59-48 3 mins left.

Cam Cam abusing the rims.

I told someone today Nederland by 15-25. I know the Dogs are playing very well now and progressing. Less than 15 and Memorial is further along than we thought.

Please keep us updated. I expect the Dogs to exact a little revenge for last year's loss.

27 on Memorial? Business as usual in Nederville... ;)

You realize we should have 2 balls in the hopper this year come lottery time? If one should drop right (pardon the pun), Mr. Simmons should look good in green and white. We are still owed one after the Bias incident and the near miss with Duncan...

Also a kid who fits nicely into Shaka's system. If Shaka fills a roster with 5 stars who fit, look out. That's all I'm saying...

Big get. Many thought he would go Arizona or A&M if he stayed home.

Yep. Had some injury issues early too. Hate to see this as well. I believe he could have flourished in the future, as it should be getting brighter. But we live in an instant gratification society, and college basketball seems to exemplify the worst of it. Sadly, the virtue of working through adversity and coming out the better for it seems to be lost on a lot of these kids. Just a shame. Hope it turns out well for him nonetheless.

I have to say, I was there primarily to watch the boys' games but caught a couple of girls games. The Tatum team arrived Wednesday night for a shoot around and met and played with the OF girls (from what I was told yesterday). The reason I found this out because I was asking due to the fact that the Tatum team was louder and more supportive of the OF girls team than even the OF fans. They were leading cheers and very loud and supportive throughout a close game OF had with Nederland. The reason the favor was returned when Tatum played should be obvious. Sometimes grown ups are more childish than 15-18 yo girls. I think it's pretty obvious who is "butt hurt" and it's not the girls. By the way, that Tatum team can really play. I'm impressed with how close EC played them. Both teams should be commended.

You know he loves every second of it.

Agree with ALL of that.

What a good coach should do...have team consistently progressing...

Speaking of hiring assistant coaches, it's a dang shame Texas has never gone out and hired Bradley Dale Peveto as an assistant. He recently ranked 3rd among college assistants in recruiting. [Hidden Content]

Old Timer, I know what you were trying to say...couldn't resist the response based on the choice of the word "begging." However, it IS apparent that gone are the days we could just go pay whoever was the "flavor of the week" defensive coordinator in the SEC. At least under this regime apparently..
