i heard east chambers

maybe a better incentive for local players - not sure what all the ncaa rules are now - but student has opportunity to stay at home vs if moving off has room and board cost - but if way to waive certain cost for local athletes to make staying home more appealing - i would rather have a small tax increase for all areas in triangle to offset cost and keep all athletes, band, academic students in our area

stock up on local talent instead of letting them get away stock up on shooters - when you can score anything can happen run and gun fan interaction community interaction summer camps for local kids not sure what all will truly produce attendants with wins but gotta start somewhere

anthony toney from use raging cajuns lit it up

montagne was full house a rocking during those days

yea they fouling lamar and they couldn’t make a free thrown someone won 25k with half court shot at half time

i remember he coached at vincent middle school? i think that was it. i played against him there when they had fund raiser and. had staff vs K106 Mark landis and the nutt hut - i was with K106 and we went to different schools to help raise money

alvin brooks was on team too - he was so quick Oliver amazing shot but his def needed help - i think he’s in prison in carolina area - so sad davis/perkins big men all the time blends together now and i can’t remember as much as i like too but had the experience to get to play with/against those guys - great games abd they let you know how good you ain’t with their talent - lol great players and teams Anthony todd came in and left. talent from area started going else where. beat phi slamma jamma in first round nit just one yr after they was in finals but lost to gerald wilkins (dominique brother) chattanooga next round same yr had joe dumas at mcneese and karl malone at la tech in conference la tech ranked 4 in nation and victory at home against them wish we could get local talent to stay and bring lamar back

bb davis in lamar glory days lost second round to tourney champs magic and msu next yr lost in sweet 16 and if they had 3 pter with oliver who knows what coukd have happen 78, 79, 80, 81 some good lamar yrs

well if he can have the right leadership around him - and put in work ethic - you 100% can be competitive - i absolutely love when a young man dedicated himself and creates opportunity from hard work i stressed to my son constantly 1) develop your body: work out grow muscles - run increase your endurance 2) institutionalize fundamentals of the game: practice until fundamentals are like breathing - you just do the simple things in game instinctively 3) develop mind: study film and the game - understand ppl are creatures of habit learn those tendencies - educate self in class room - and be a persons of humility/respect/teamwork/integrity/compliance/value creation 4) talent - all you can do here is master first 3 because you have 100% control there and use all that GOD birth you

is the Gardenhire kid - i think 24 is he a senior - he’s a good ball player on Vidor

10 lumberton is Harmon Elliot only jr, harris, miller only soph

on end i would say vidor/lum/bc

and landry kid for LCM didn’t play basketball this yr either

OF did have 2 good guards Lum a good guard, Vidor a good guard, WOS had a good guard Silsbee and LCM kids good but it like they were forwards - not sure if you list Elliott as guard or not but some good kids out top
