Ok he deserves it but I thought we couldn't start threads calling out an individual.

[/quote] so they would've had four 3-year starters except for the injury.  i knew there were at least 4 of them. [/quote]There were 5 Super-Sophomores, if I recall correctly.  But one of the kids moved away, perhaps? [/quote] One moved to Atascocita, I believe, hoping to get better exposure in football maybe.

HJ by 5. [/quote] The Cleveland Coach Has Got To Go.The Fan In Cleveland Told Me They Wish The School Board Would Fire Him. We Will See.

[/quote] Dallas Smith was the 3rd place team from Dallas Madison's District!!!!!! :o :o :o [/quote] Noticed that too.  Argyle won a close one as well.

Not that big of a suprise to me.  The Tigers took advantage of HJ's lack of depth this year, give HJ a team that doesn't have that advantage and they get real hard to beat.  Congrats HJ.

[quote name="BADSANTA" post="975750" timestamp="1299118417"] HJ is going to state this year! No other 3A team in Region 3 stands a chance! [/quote] Only one did and they layed an egg!!

CLeveland is done!!!

Hawks in control.. Cleveland will get desperate quickly on the fourth.

With no depth the fouls may kill Cleveland in the end.

The announcing might be a little better on the EC game, maybe. The game I would listen to would be the HJ game too much  rivalry there!

Nice, but if I can't make myself commit to driving to Baytown to see HJ and Cleveland,i am sure not driving to Beaumomt to see that excuse got a coach!

[quote name="LAZEEK" post="974672" timestamp="1299013458"] I find it odd that so many people are putting Gus in front of Prudhomme from HJ.  Both are very good and deserving of the recognition.  HJ relies on both of them so much!!! [/quote] Definitely, Gus is a very good point guard, gives all he has and then some but Sean is the better all around player out of the two.p

Although not sure that should matter.

Good question...less travel distance maybe?

That would give you a good start. But if your realy the best player in SETX you should not go out in your first playoff game. [/quote] You know you just keep making a bigger idiot out of your self than anybody on here could have ever imagined.  Losing one playoff game doesn't say anything about an individual player. The player you are inferring to had a pretty good night but as a team the Tigers had a bad night .  How many other players in this area have started for 4 years(15 games as a freshman),  been to Austin twice, and  made the all state team.  It has been said many times anything can happen in one game,  unfortunately for the Tigers that was the case.  But no matter how good a player is he can't win games by himself it takes a team.  I am sure this particular would take as much blame as any of his teammates but this game doesn't belittle the player that he is.  Is he the best player in the area this year? That is an opinion but it has been the opinion of many whose opinions matter a heck of a lot more than yours!! [/quote]Ok they are the best 2 players in SETX, that are at home watching the best TEAMS in SETX go on in the playoffs.. Is that better for you :) [/quote] I have made references to only one player and unfortunately for that player his team is home watching some of the teams that his team beat continue on in the playoffs.  So yes at this point some of those teams are playing better in the playoffs than the Tigers did.  But, even though there are a few of these teams still playing who could arguably be considered among the best teams in SETX,  there are still some of them that, even with the game the Tigers played friday night, still wouldn't have a chance at beating the Tigers!

[quote name="LAZEEK" post="973889" timestamp="1298868141"] Anything can happen in one game.......I also agree that the winner of this game on paper is the favorite to get to Austin.  But that is "why they play the games"!!!!! [/quote] Definately!  Waiting to see where this one is going to be,  I may have to go.  It will be my last game to see this year if I do.

The Tigers two victories over HJ don't mean anything the rest of the way now.  The only thing that matters where the Tigers have been a concern now is that our loss has made this region HJ or Clevelands as far as being the favorite.  I think at least on paper the Tigers matched up fairly even with both teams starting 5 then had the advantage on the bench.  We didn't have that big of a size differential with either one.  If these two can counteract a team like Sealy sizewise,  I feel like one of the two will be in Austin.  This matchup should be a good one with both team having fairly equal depth and both with very good starting lineups.

Will these sites all be more or less midway points or will they be closer to each home town?
