Cardinal 1

Lol the kid at Huffman is a solid player, he's no Braylon Bush by far 🤣. Remember this Huffman team lost to a young inexperienced HF team in the playoffs last year. He only scored 5pts in that game. The kid who locked him down is still at HF folks

Huffman a 1 trick pony. No wonder they fought to get Ardoin off HF varsity this year. It will keep them from losing by 40. When one kid scores over 50% of your team's points, your not that good. HF and HJ can score from several positions. HF having about 5-6 guys that can go for 10 or more points a game.

HF will beat HJ. Both teams are equally matched athletically (HF actually may have a slit edge) and will come down to coaching. Rideaux is a far better coach then Davis. HJ sits in the same defense and press the whole game.

They still have to find the leader of that squad. Talent doesn't equate to leadership always, just production. Kasen was the alpha and leader of that squad. Who will take his place?

BU will not beat Hightower. Will be a good game, but Hightower has a general surrounded by solders who will follow him. Who's the leader at BU? You might say Arceneaux, but that's not a given at all. The undisputed leader of Hightower is Griggs and this team is better then last years

Summer creek will be fast and up tempo. BU will have some growing pains at the guard position, but will be solid from the SG, SF, and wing position

He's still there.

Yes the kid that was their leading scorer and made 1st team all district had never played school ball before lol. He was a straight up park baller who only organized basketball experience was from summer league ball. That's actually scary. This kid is just learning how to play basketball and was first team all district

Im not going to lie. I'm not a fan of a couple fo the schools involved if that's not evident already lol. I think it was either Huffman or HJ that did this as HF is the only other team in that district that cam challenge them for the title and seeing that Huffman's superintendent may have a son or relative on the team makes it even more telling to the bias. They run that district

If you notice I'm just repeating the same facts, but getting different answers from the same folks. That means they know this sounds fishy and just don't want to admit it lol

I don't think the UIL will have a problem with a kid going from a private school to the school they pay taxes at, but apparently so of the admins on the DEC of that district is hoping they do Lmbo! I hope they appeal and win. If so those district games are going to be very heated with some bad casualties lol

That's all I'm saying in this instance. They may have an argument for the others as one played JV due to UIL rules, but denying a kid coming from a private school to the school he's zoned to is a head scratcher to me and all I'm getting is "the trend" which is understandable if he was coming from another ISD school or just moving into the district but that's not the case at all

Good question. I guess not as far as this decision is concerned.

Also his dad a coach right? Wouldn't he talk to the new head coach prior to his son moving the following year to get to know him?

So if his dad has said for over a year that he was going HF and Tigee only been there since last school year, then that means the decision was already made before last season right?

But how do you prove that a kid that has lived in your district but went to private school is returning to the district is for athletic purposes? How is that possible unless the ISD school is now academic performance school which I don't think HF is. Correct me if I'm wrong. I mean all I've read from folks is the rule that shouldn't apply here to this particular player. Maybe to the others, but not here.

Not my arguement at all as I don't know their situation or reasons why they came. I know one was a park baller from what I was told and never played for any school. I'm on why a kid who is from the district was denied. He has nothing to do with kids moving into the district from Beaumont. He's from there and should have the right to play for his zoned school. So again what I'm seeing is he's being punished for the actions of others

That's an assumption, but programs begin to have success always when a good coach shows up. Let's not act like other programs don't have transfers. HJ and East Chambers do it frequently, but no one says anything. It seems like some folks are targeting the HF coach and a kid got caught in the middle. I'm waiting to see if anyone knows the answer to my question about the Huffman player and the superintendent. If that's his son or relative, it would show some bias on his part as Huffman has been basketball kings if this district. Now you drop HJ and HF in it and that title is at stake now. Just seems fishy to me

Yeah I hear you, so they voted against this kid based on what happened last year? That's what you're saying?

Question: Is Grey Soileau the son or of relation to Dr. Benny Soileau Huffman superintendent? He's on the DEC.

So let me get this right. Folks are actually insinuating that no other basketball program in that district has players that transferred in? Or any good basketball program for that matter?

Yeah but if you're his dad and have been to back to back state title games, why would you give up your best player? Also your question of why wouldn't you want to be coached by your dad raise another tell that he didn't leave for athletic reasons because why wouldn't a kid want to be coached by his dad who he'shad success under. Good question my friend. You keep bringing up other players and what HF might be doing. That has nothing to do with this kid as he is from HF and a former student. The others weren't. Seems as if he's being judge unfairly based on the actions of others.

I thought HF was a good academic school? Am I being fooled or something about that? It just seems like folks are really shocked that a kid would leave a charter school to go there as if it's a trash school academically.

The opportunities could exactly be the reason he changed lol. It's a STEM school as in Science, technology, engineering, and math. Smh Who are we to say that he decided to leave because he didn't want to go into those fields? Seems like there's some real homers in here lmbo!

How did you come to that assessment? Please elaborate
