I agree 100%.

I'm surprised it took this long to start using it.

Coaching has more to do with what you have to work with than anything. To be fair... if not then the same coach would win the state championship every year.

He probably won't stay long, then. WH seems like the kind of place that most good coaches stay away from. JMO

Bobby Knight?

Happened to have been the first year to have 4 teams make the playoffs. But yes..they did get 4th and get in. I'm pretty sure there were some years prior that they also got 4th but only 3 teams went at the time. Including the year before Franklin got there. I think I read somewhere that they had a fairly decent year back when Hodges was at the helm. Neither here nor there.. This actually wouldn't be a bad job for whoever gets it. 4A D2 is such a watered down joke of a division that HJ could potentially have some decent 1st, 2nd, or even 3rd round runs spread out..as long as the classifications don't change much. But for the time being, I think it's gonna be easier for HJ to get better in football and harder to stay good in basketball. Kountze is slowly falling off in basketball so maybe it'd be a good time for Joubert to hit the road.

As much as I hate to disagree with you...I can’t help it. Surely you know that it’s impossible to know for sure who the 1st Team would be if they all played with or against each other. Since that is the case it has to go off of individual statistics as well as contrition to team success. Even if Silsbee’s 3rd best player might be better than someone else’s best player we’ll never actually know. So individual statistics have to be used as somewhat of a measuring stick along with several other factors.

The practice plan including squat jumps has been submitted for board approval. Still pending.

Oh my...could it be? Only 5 players on 1st team and 5 players on 2nd team? You mean just like an actual basketball team? So refreshing to not see 13 1st Teamers and a bunch of “Co”s. Congrats to all.

I don't know if she can or she can't.. maybe she's an absolute basketball genius. I'm simply implying that the time in which to find out how well she can coach boys or not may not be to throw her into her first boys coaching experience with a 6A boys job. All I'm saying. Because I'm pretty positive that coaching boys basketball is a lot different than coaching girls basketball. Just like coaching 6A basketball is a lot different than coaching 1A basketball (for example). Just because it's all basketball doesn't make it the same.

You're not against a person getting a 6A boys basketball job that has no experience coaching boys basketball?

Every year I’m surprised when this school is still open.

Asking a lot.

That’s why PATs are important.

I approve this message.

I also hate this by the way. And it's kind of aggravating that most assume the Newcomer OTY should be a freshman. If they do.. It's simply someone that wasn't a varsity player in the district the year before. Could be a freshman..or former JV player...or even a move-in/transfer. District picks..smh

Stats are like bikinis. They show a lot...but they don't show everything. But no it's hard to say stats don't mean anything because that's not entirely true. But it is not true that the person that scores the most points is the best player. Sometimes that definitely true. But not always. On a good team, it is quite possible for their best player to only play around half of the game or so if they are killing a bad team. But the best player on a different team may play the whole game against a bad team because it's a little more competitive. In that case, stats don't mean everything.

There are literally teams where all 5 starters get an All-District "award" and maybe even bench players getting something. I mean...seriously? Just look at how NBA and college do it. That is the way it is supposed to be done. And they should honestly do away with Co-ANYTHING. Are we not man enough to just pick one and deal with a little disappointment?

When the coaches are making the All-District selections.. they are supposed to be putting together a team from their district that they would use to play against another district (hypothetical). Whichever kid that the coaches decide would be their unanimous top/first pick is the district MVP. Or at least that's the way it's supposed to be. To be honest All-District selections have gotten so PC and watered down that I don't even pay attention to who got what anymore. It's pretty sickening. There are far too many mommas to please to do it right.

I was honestly just curious. In my mind, it wouldn't have made sense to have made the All-State team but not make the All-Region team before doing so.

How do you make the All State team...but didn’t make the All Region team?? I don’t think I’ve seen that before. Unless I’m reading it wrong but I’m pretty sure Silsbee had 2 kids on the All Region team.

Maybe there weren’t any applicants...

When you only give up 32 in a basketball game you’re supposed to win. But to be fair...only giving up 28 is even better.

Is there a list of applicants?
