[quote name="BLUEDOVE3" post="1153364" timestamp="1325532349"] Yep, you need to be more specific. I could list 25 plus schools better than HJ. Lets see: Oak Hill FT.Bend Bush Jack Yates Silsbee The list goes on ;D [/quote] Ummm, that's not 10. ??? We'll find out real soon about Sisbee, they won't have a chance to play the others (until next year when Yates moves down to 3A) and I don't think Oak Hill is in the Greater Houston Area!

Tuesday 20-4a game predictions
Honest Abe replied to LCMBIGFan's topic in SETXsports Archived Threads
The Nederland/PNG game will be much closer, just b/c of the rivalry. Would love an 18 point victory, but 8 is more likely. -

Is there the tournement MP or the all tournement team? [/quote] MVP was House because no-one could play defense on him [/quote] Memorial played a box on him. Didn't matter. Just opened up space for his teammates. [/quote] Nederland's box-in-one was effective in slowing him down enough for a 'W'. Is there more than one way to play a box-in-one?

[quote name="BADSANTA" post="1152706" timestamp="1325291608"] Haven't heard much from them this year. Have they played any good competition? [/quote] Saw them play this weekend in The Gulf Coast Classic at Barber's Hill. Nederland played them in the Semi-Final game and Royal won by 1. Nederland did not play their best game, but had a chance to win. Ned missed a last second shot. They then lost to Cy Ridge in the finals. Royal has lots of size (6'7", 6'5", & 6'4") and speed.

[quote name="BADSANTA" post="1152469" timestamp="1325260157"] I see your point. I think that Silsbee's 1st win by 16 is a true reflection of how good Silsbee is. I see West Brook as a playoff team of course, but I didnt count them beating Silsbee twice. The only 3A teams who will give Silsbee a run for their money are HJ, Sealy, and Meixa. Silsbee has beat themselves in a few games this year missing free throws and inconsistent 3 point shooting. [/quote] You may want to add Brookshire Royal to that list. They will big a tough obstacle en route to Austin.

GULF COAST CLASSIC THREAD/CY-RIDGE WINS THE TOURNAMENT!
Honest Abe replied to WOSgrad's topic in SETXsports Archived Threads
I don't think i was crying, but U have an opinion like everyone else. When the refs stop play for 5 minutes bc they don't understand the rules, i'm gonna say they are clueless every time. I also made it very clear twice that refs rarely decide the outcome of a game, but maybe u overlooked those posts??? Sorry for the side discussion wosgrad: Final: Ned 68 BH 60 [quote name="BH85" post="1152083" timestamp="1325189561"] [quote author=NB-Dawg link=topic=93485.msg1152073#msg1152073 date=1325188833] [quote author=BH85 link=topic=93485.msg1152064#msg1152064 date=1325187808] [quote author=NB-Dawg link=topic=93485.msg1152056#msg1152056 date=1325187539] Ned kids playing flat.

[/quote] Wow, you are usually crying about the refs by halftime. Coach English is a very good coach, he'll get their attitude adjusted if needed at half. Sounds like game is a good one. I wish I could of made it. Good luck to both teams. [/quote] U must have selective reading. I make objectionable observations, and I have never once cried on this board about the refs. Anyway, back to the game: End of 3: Ned 42 BH 39 [/quote] Let's see...First game you agreed with Beechnut on getting hosed on some calls. Second game - no complaints during beat down of Anahuac Third game - you had to drop a "Looks like another 5 on 8" though you made it better with smiley face oh and Refs are clueless!!! comment when you didn't understand the technicals Fourth game - Complained about 3 seconds not being called though you showed you didn't know the rules on 3 seconds with your explanation.

Refs you had today were from the Houston chapter [/quote] Wherever they are from, they learned to count to 5, but not able to count to 3! ::) [/quote] when the ball shot the 3 seconds count restarts. also as long as the offense player is trying to move out of the paint. most of the time the 3's will not be called. [/quote] No. It restarts if the ball hits the rim. If the shot is an air ball, the 3 secs continue. Also, if the offensive player advances the ball past the defender (even if the defender still stays within range) the 5 sec count restarts as well. In the 7 games I have watched in this tourney so far, I have observed at least (6) 5 sec calls and ZERO 3 sec violations. Clearly this chapter of officials has emphasized the 5 sec rule more so than the 3 sec call. I'm not upset about it, I was just making an obvious observation. It's just the way they run their chapter. Refs in the Bmt/Ned area rarely make that call, but are more likely to call the 3 sec violation. But if they are going to make that call, they need to understand the rule completely, IMO. -
