Floyd Mayweather was the Welterweight champ not too long ago. Does anybody know who the heavyweight champ was during that time? And there were plenty heavyweights who probably would have KOed him but they didn’t get the same recognition because their greatness didn’t matchup pound for pound.

I don’t think you realize the facts you stated are actually what makes Newton a powerhouse. No other school only enrolling 3 or 400 students a year is producing half the athletes Newton is. And Newton could probably still beat BC on a bad year. And probably win some of the 4A districts on a bad year

I’m pretty sure the Yates coach scheduled those games because he was confident in his teams ability to play somewhere close to that level. Coaches don’t normally schedule teams they don’t think they can compete with. And those elite teams don’t normally want to play anyone who’s not going to challenge them. Either way I don’t care who teams chose to play in preseason. I do care who teams are forced to have to compete with during district and the playoffs.

If they’re going to continue popping up with multiple 6’8 senior “move ins” each year they should probably compete against those schools all season. Preseason, district, and post season.

Not saying WOS problem was the coach because I didn’t see them play this year although I do know they normally have good athletes. Yea bad shots can take you out of a game but lack of confidence and being too stiff will take you out quicker. You don’t fix bad shot selection by threatening to yank players in my opinion.

I personally don’t think strict limitations on players is a good style of coaching. Limitations are sometimes needed but too many limitations is a good way to have a talented team underachieve. They will never be able to perform freely if they’re worried about being yanked. Gotta let the dogs loose and not try n tame them

Let’s go Lady Eagles!

Both. Mainly Shallowater is just that good though. No scrubs left at this point in the season so it’s impressive to beat anyone like that in the State Tournament

Good win Trojans

Dang.....Good season Silsbee!

He can be really good if he’s developed properly. Got a few in junior high that might be pretty good also

Nah they’re decent. I got it right lol. Now their offense is no joke

Both are decent on both ends of the floor. Coldspring Is one of the best on offense. Crockett is one of the best on defense. I believe in the old concept “defense wins championships” which is why I’m going with Crockett

Way to go Woodville! Looks like your well prepared for a tough matchup with Shallowater

Should be a good one. I got Crockett by 2 but seems like Coldspring might be playing with a point to prove so they may prove me wrong. Good luck to both teams

Those are good teams but neither are top 25 in state except maybe Crosby to my knowledge. United is top 10 in 6A this year. The biggest challenge to United in 5A region 3 would probably be PA Memorial depending on what they got coming back. If they make it to state they may have to deal with Lancaster.

Yates would still be a dominant school on either level. Would they win state? Probably not. 6A has Duncanville and 5A has Lancaster. Both are top 25 in the nation. Yates hasn’t proved they can play at that level. They’d probably still win district and maybe make the regional tournament though

Seems like they should still be really strong with those 3. Mr buddy’s probably correct. And with their coach I’d probably add a State Championship to his statement. Never know though. I don’t know what type of teams other 5A schools will be bringing back

United should have won it all this year. How many coming back?

I like Silsbee’s chances against Life. Life is a good disciplined ball club but Silsbee has the better athletes. Silsbee will probably still loose if they don’t have more intensity on defense though. Will probably need to be more patient at the same time. Best word to use would be poise. Lots of poise on both ends of the floor and Silsbee wins easily in my opinion

Doesn’t prove he’s following rules at all lol. Probably more so proves he’s willing to break the rules if he’s able. I do believe he intended on that kid playing varsity this year. UIL was just able to enforce the rule in that instance. Knowing that he’s probably willing to break the rules how would anyone know he didn’t find loop holes to get the other 2 kids approved.

I doubt the “pipeline” is that strong except the recruit who wasn’t eligible for varsity probably because he hadn’t previously been staying in the district like your claiming all these transfers have

Good season EC!

Should be a good one. I got Dibol by 4
