2020VISION

No one considers it drama, I said possibly with another kid, it COULD turn into drama. Again, just posting some facts. My guys don’t get to associate with my “training regimens” if they’re not mentally tough or if their grades aren’t right. You do realize the Alabama Football players aren’t allowed to read the paper/message boards right? There’s a reason coaches from all over keep outside noise away from the field/court. I appreciate the advice though man.

So you think the kids don't read these boards? How do you think I found out about the post? I rarely get on here. It can cause unnecessary drama and could be problematic if you're talking about the wrong kid. Kasen is a very mature one though, so it's not going to be an issue but someone else it could be. That's why I just laid out the facts, and now I'm going to go about my business.

It's not serious, but it's also not accurate. No big deal.

Unless you provide facts, people should stay away from commenting about a 16 year old kid. I didn't create a membership to complain about anything, I posted to make people aware of the misinformation. As someone thats worked with most of the great basketball players from that class since they were 12 years old, you're damn right I'm going to protect them.

I've trained/coached/mentored Kasen Harrison since 2013 . He's staying at Beaumont United. Pretty sad grown men take information posted on social media and make posts like this.

Oh yeah, literally happened overnight seemed like. He should throwing down some windmills soon, not kidding. I’m not saying these kids won’t stay or who will be there and who won’t but I talk to a lot of these parents at least 2020 parents and not many of them are thrilled at all about United. I imagine a lot will end up staying but some may go to WB or even Legacy.

I coach/train Harrison. Went to most of his games. He had a dunk vs Livingston and the Ozen game at their place. I wouldn't be so quick to say which kids will be at United. I know of several that won't be playing there next year.

Great kid who has made major strides with his attitude since I last coached him. Very cool to see.

Very below average team without Holifield

I'm just curious why are some of y'all hating on Hayden Hefner? It's ok if you are, I'd just like to hear some basketball reason(s) as to why he's over-hyped or average or whatever.

I haven't been a part of this message board for long but some of you are worse than my 15 year old players when it comes to the refs.

Until I stared coaching 4 years ago, back when I played, the YMBL was a MAJOR deal. Just seems to be different now. I was shocked when I watched the tournament for the first time in about a decade at how much it has digressed. They definitely need to bring all the local powerhouses back, and make it a prime-time tournament(not mostly during the day when everyone works) so the seats will fill up. It didn't matter who was #1 in the local rankings, if you won the YMBL you were the best, period. Just doesn't seem that way anymore.

Thank you. I never understood why the 2 teams that played in the championship always seem to have the most players make all-tournament team.

Interesting.

@kingjames I do the same with alot of these guys in Beaumont, so I'm definitely a little biased too. Also coached your son a few times during AAU season, so it's been hard to cheer on both teams when they play a team like Central. He's got a lot of heart, and that will take him a long way.

Any idea on who's on the All Tournament team and MVP?

Any update on Central vs. Kountze??

How did Harrison do?

Is anyone at the Central game?

Was at the game, and coach/have coached a few kids from both schools, so my opinion is unbiased. If West Brook can get Parque and Simon going, they should win on their home floor by 15-20. Ozen definitely deserved to win that game though, no doubt. Once they had a few players buy in, it was game over and West Brook folded tent. Even when they were up by a few, their bench looked like they knew they were fixing to lose. Someone other than Boutte has to step up and lead them in that situation.
