United fartherest game is houston, i wouldnt call that very distant.....

I have seen another video of this incident. It starts with the inbounds on the other end of the court. It follows the action up the court til about mid court. Then it moves under the other basket. After just a couple secs you heat the whistle and an ohh. It pans back to the ref with his fists already up moving towards a player several feet away. I would like to see what went on in those few secs. No doubt the team went way to far. But with what I have seen it seems the ref may have some fault as well. Unless that video was altered it was awful quick for a ref to throw up his hands. Other circumstances may have contributed to this and the players were definitely in the wrong but the situation definitely needs a little investigation.

Seems like a tough loss for BC, they have been much imoroved the last year or two.

If you are counting me in your 4 Silsbee fans you better subtract one, i havent picked nor will i pick a winner.

One point here i would have to go against is the wearing down of wos defensive line. I know Carthage had some big guys but through the years i have had the same thoughts when we have had a big size advantage on the line and at times in the playoffs. But it never happens. I think those guys have energizers in their pads!!

Our two time defending state champion Tigers went 6-1 this weekend losing in the championship game by 1 in double overtime to a team made up of players UT is recruiting. Great showing guys!!

We will most likely start what are truly 5 guards. I would expect it to be of course McCain, Adams, Bush, Tyler and Martin. So to fill in down low it almost has to be McCain with his build and then probably Martin. The big benefit to that is then offensively you can pull anyone outside and get them the ball and let them work. You don’t have to worry about a “big” man that can’t handle the ball. And on the 4A level there won’t be a lot of teams with good size down low. By that I mean with the size and ability.

Not so sure that one of those might not spend more time down low this year, will have to wait and see.

Yes he was big last year but was pretty much a non factor in the state game due to fouls.

I dont think we will really be much smaller than this year. We really only played seven in the playoffs and Barnes is the only one that we lose from those 7 that was over 6’ and he is only about 6’2 although he played a lot larger.

Hahaha!!

Way to go BS!! And i guess you are allowed to do that every now and then!!

So BS wins??

Undefeated and just a top notch all around athletic program.

Maybe so. And inagree that BU should be closer than wos but at the same time bu is unproven and will be playing in 6A. Big expectations but didnt both central and ozen have those expectations at a lower level. Hope bu can live up to theirs!

Wow wouldnt have expected a move from head coach to asst.

Actually the only one we had on the all tourney team that year was Michael McCain. That was the year we lost to Lincoln.

Unfortunately from some things I have read, I believe this is true. I have a hard time believing wind makes much of a difference unless you are running in a hurricane!!!

As a matter of fact he started the state title game as a sophomore as well.

Barnes didn’t come off the bench in basketball, he was a starter this year and a large part of last year including the state title game. Jones actually came in off the bench in many of those games including the state game.

It’s hard for me to argue much in these “best ever” but one thing I will definitely say in Barnes favor is not only has he won those races, he did it in national record time... none of those others posted that time. And all those other things just add to it.

Has to be right there at the top of the list!! one question...was he all district basketball as a freshman??

Not working for me either.

How nice it must be to focus on one incident and forget your own.........

WE played really 7 players in SA. The 2 seniors being Barnes and Tre Lowe. Both played big parts for us this year. We do have some players coming back that can fill in that spot Left by Lowe. The tough spot to fill in will be Barnes. His rebounding and speed will be tough to replace. He definitely played bigger than his size. Now with that said in that state championship game, we pretty much played without him. He was very limited due to foul trouble.
