Is Morgan out??
If he was it would be breaking news across the state.
(And I'm pretty sure a separate thread would be going about it 😉 )

San Augustine with his dad correct?

8 more weeks from today it begins. 💪🏾

Yep. I'd enjoy hearing some insight after listening to the BU coach interview with Stepp. He seemed like he has the temperament to really help the program over there.
They might not score on us again this year 😁🙃

I understand the district‑talent argument, but let’s be real — lack of talent isn’t the other team’s fault. Every coach has to build around what they’ve got. Some schools have hoopers, some don’t. That’s the nature of high school sports.
But that’s exactly why a shot clock doesn’t hurt the game. It doesn’t force anyone to play fast. It just forces everyone to play basketball. You can still run deliberate offense. You can still control tempo. You can still grind out possessions. A 35–40 second clock gives you more than enough time to run multiple actions.
What it removes is the ability to stall for two minutes without any intent to score. That’s not “strategy.” That’s hiding behind the clock because you don’t have the talent to compete straight up.
And diversity doesn’t disappear. College has a shot clock and you still see:
• Princeton offenses
• Ball‑screen heavy systems
• Motion teams
• Post‑dominant teams
• Pack‑line defenses
All completely different identities. The clock doesn’t erase style — it erases stalling.Most teams who want a shot clock already shoot within 45 seconds anyway. They’re not asking for help on offense. They’re asking for a rule that keeps the game competitive and keeps kids developing real basketball skills.
High school players deserve:
• More possessions
• Real end‑of‑game situations
• Preparation for the next level
A shot clock doesn’t make everyone play the same. It just prevents one team from turning the game into a freeze‑tag contest because they don’t have the talent to compete possession‑to‑possession.Me personally idc if there's a shot clock or not, but after reading this post he's not wrong. 🤷🏾♂️

Region 3 belongs to North Shore and the entire state knows it!🤣🤣
Drop that excess enrollment and join us, we'll see if that statement would hold true. 😁

Nice sweep of Toronto!

Quick question: how's the community support for Coldspring football?

Yep. R2 looks pretty salty to me from a depth perspective also. You'll finally get to see Bulldog. LP already has a countdown clock to the first game on their webpage. I'm ready. Last year left a bad taste.
Yup. I'm expecting R2 vs R3 in Arlington, just have to weed out the teams.

Any thoughts on DCTX district predictions? They're actually predicting 9-5AD! to be one of the State's toughest 5A districts after looking at all the teams. I see--on paper--a lot of balance between teams.
The BU disrespect is a head-scratcher.
I don't see WB making the playoffs.
The rest of it looks fine to me.

How was the QB to WR chemistry by our area teams there? I don't care how the defense did, it'll be very different once them pads come on.

Lost 2 of 3 to the marlins.
Monday W 4-3
Tuesday L 4-6
Wednesday L 2-4
Heading north for a 4 game series with the blue jays.
Season record: 38-42
I have a serious dislike for the blue jays. Wish we had Rougned Odor playing every time we face them for game purposes and entertainment purposes. 😁

I've seen Vidor win when they've had a wave of talent come through, funny how that works. 🤷🏾♂️
