Final: Ned 64 LT 31

Panthers will pull it out.

And they played Central this year AND WOS twice/yr.

End of 3: Ned 40 LR 25

2nd half will be different.

No way!!

Ned up 15-9 after 1

They not worried about us, remember: CENTRAL beat Ned already, PLUS, they beat Ozen twice this year, AND Ozen just beat Ned Friday night. Ned is just another game on the Jags's schedule.

The YMBL Semi-Final game could have gone either way (much like Friday's loss to Ozen). Central made their FTs in the end which secured the win. I expect Friday's game to be every bit exciting and intense.

[quote name="rc2182" post="1363653" timestamp="1358271024"] Yes he has ,but the ultimate goal is to win championships and maybe that's coming and I am sure coach English would say the same. [/quote]

[quote name="rc2182" post="1363653" timestamp="1358271024"] Yes he has ,but the ultimate goal is to win championships and maybe that's coming and I am sure coach English would say the same. [/quote]Did Coach English tell you that is his ultimate goal? I'm sure every coach would love a state appearance and/or title, but it can't be a realistic expectation. I think it's more about life lessons and providing the best opportunity and experience for each kid he coaches. He's trying to help them reach their full potential. Last year was not a state championship year, but it helped a kid earn a scholarship to receive a free education and play basketball for 4 years. He was ecstatic that he helped the kid achieve that honor. We all know it takes a lot of skill and luck to reach state and win it. It will need to be a special group and/or player(s). This IS a special group, but there may be a piece missing. 2016 is also a special group, but they too have something missing. As DV mentioned, the bar has been surpassed. One playoff appearance from 1955-2008, now four (this year will be 5) in a row including: 20-4A District Champs 2010-2012 Bi-District Champs 2010-2012 Area Champs 2010-2012 Regional Quarter Finalist 2010-2012 Regional Semi-Finalist 2011 Just for you BD3! ;) ;D

When you are part of the DC the last 3 yrs anything less than that is not a success. Hence save the season. Afterall, this is the state bound team right? Ned just gave up the home court advantage and the district leader is coming in this week. I hope we get back on track Perhaps English pulled a Dayton and lost on purpose for a better playoff seed. What ya think AAW? Now tell me who the fool is? Oops there goes my bad karma again. Oh, and my bad on classifying it as a meeting. I guess it was more of a family intervention, which may lead to your big surprise. I can't wait to find out this week. Go Dogs   [/quote] I can't tell if you are being for real or not.. I just kinda hope you don't really think like that [/quote]News Flash!! Duke called an emergency meeting today to save their season! Their loss to NC State on Saturday has caused mass chaos! :o Anything less than a Nat'l Championship is not a successful season! ::)

[quote name="Dick Vitale" post="1363393" timestamp="1358183863"] Guys, Coach English does a TREMENDOUS job, considering what he has to go through over there in Nederland.  I think that they should take a long, hard look at untying his hands with that basketball program just to see what it can be.  He is by far and away the best coach in 20-4A...And it shows...They just need to give him what he needs to be successful, or they will eventually lose him. [/quote]+1! Obviously you are aware of his many challenges he faces every year off the court. ;) Nobody in Nederland is brave enough to stand up against those who are tying his hands!
