  1. Forgot Booker T had the 6-8 McDermott kid who is a sophomore. After the way Silsbee has played the last few weeks or so, tough not to make Washington the favorite for that region.
  2. Exactly. 20 pieced LCM without their best player. LCM had their best players on the floor.
  3. Could be 4 or 44, I will take the midpoint of 24. Silsbee 91, WOS 67.
  4. Funniest thing I’ve read in a while!
  5. WOS took 2 of 3 from Silsbee that year. Laquarious Paige was on another level.
  6. This will likely be Silsbee’s closest district game (even though WOS will finish somewhere between 5th and 3rd in district), like it is many years (close being a relative term). This is because WOS always has the next most talent in the district, even though they are chronic underperformers against its other district foes.
  7. But tap the breaks on winning district. It’s nice to see WOS finally play a really good district game. But like I said about a certain team in this district last year, there is a way better chance of the stangs not making the playoffs than that happening.
  8. A lot is always said about kids getting second chances, usually from a team that got beat. Sports is all about life lessons and sometimes the best life lesson is showing a kid you love them and that they are valued. Until you’ve walked in their shoes and the coaches, I always find it’s best not to speculate or judge (as with almost everything in life). But I can’t begin to articulate or explain it like the GOAT so I will leave this right here.
  9. They played Sam to the wire on the road in their only conference game down 3 to 4 starters, with only 7 eligible players, including walk ons. In the game before that, they were the “healthiest” they have been all year (before the covid outbreak) and lost by 3 at home to a team that had just beaten SFA in Nacogdoches by 13. They are way better than just looking at a 2-12 record would suggest.
  10. [Hidden Content] 66 to 1. UTGRV and Chi St are lower (150 to 1 on Chi St). I would put 100 on Lamar winning the conference tournament at 60 to 1.
  11. 40 to 1?
  12. Since they are the “worst team in the WAC,” they have to be, what, 50 to 1 to get in the tournament?
  13. New wac guidelines are less than 7 players or 1 coach and reschedule (or no contest if can’t be rescheduled).
  14. Covid
  15. Who are we kidding? We just have to have someone mention one…
  16. I once faxed a waiver (I think that was the document) to AT&T stadium for Dr. Cousins to sign during the State Championship games so a kid could play in a basketball game that night. So lest people think the uil only jumps for the Duncanvilles of the world, I can attest that at least on one occasion, the same treatment was extended to Beaumont Central.
  17. The time to do that was before the guilty verdict. Would be interesting to know what type of bartering, if any, was going on behind the scenes. Having said that, she hasn’t been sentenced yet. Maybe negotiations are ongoing. I would be willing, if I were prosecutor, to make her a pretty sweet deal to blow the lid on the whole thing (and more specifically, those who were in bed with Epstein, no pun intended).
  18. It’s generally a bad idea for universities to be releasing health related information on any of its students, even if it’s accurate. There’s a reason very limited information is typically provided on student athletes. That being said, aggy gonna aggy.
  19. And ALWAYS well coached. Whitmire might be the most underrated coach in the area.
  20. One of my biggest pet peeves. People crying for a foul doesn’t even exist.
  21. OF 41 CH 38 F WC 43 Hitchcock 37 F
  22. Played him this summer. Very skilled big man. But still think United can win this one. Should be a great game.
