The home and away teams were chosen before the season started. Thought they did a good job with the matchups based on RPI's. Also George Mason will have to play a return game in November or December next season according to the BracketBusters site.

PN-G won their pool beating Pflugerville Connally and Waco LaVega. Tied Leander Rouse. Lady Indians then won their semifinal game before taking home the title. Not sure on those opponents.

Best SLC Saturday afternoon crowd you'll see. Doty was supposed to be with the team on Thursday. He can't play this year.

Weird that ESPN is considering UTA one of the TV games when it is actually only on ESPN3.

Thought Memorial and PN-G agreed to play already.

I'm ready for any games! See PN-G's tournament schedule is a killer a usual. Baytown, LaPorte and Lufkin. My senior year we had the PN-G/Nederland (Back when it was larger field), Oak Ridge/Woodlands and Deer Park Tournament.

There hasn't been one released.

I'm betting on a return to navy and orange, 60's inspired throwbacks. NO NAME CHANGE. ---------------------------------------------------------------- Crane indicated that a uniform change was something management has been exploring for a while and if they do want to make a change prior to the '13 season, they'll have to notify Major League Baseball sometime around the start of the '12 season. Crane also said they would consider a name change, but he indicated nothing was on the horizon on that front. "We haven't said we're going to do it," Crane said. "Don't jump to any conclusions."

[quote name="bigred360" post="1163042" timestamp="1327018116"] [quote author=badndn link=topic=94468.msg1163015#msg1163015 date=1327014462] Mcneal started the week after the OU game and Long never saw the field again. That was Slocums call. End of discussion! And the twin brothers (Colburn twins) were not there Longs senior season. They graduated the year before. Longs targets that senior year were Baxter, Norton, Price (a Jr) and Lumley. Point being he had a few offers, but no D1 until the SF game. I think everyone that reads this board new the message I was conveying when I pointed out the lack of recruiting for two HOFers and a future HOFer. Lots of excellent talent is under recruited each year, just as lots of talent is over recruited each year (see G. Gilbert)! So yes in that regards (being under recruited) I was comparing Brennan Doty to those HOFers. LOL at that.  ;D [/quote] Dang, I didn't think I saw him play as a junior (Long) but obviously I did and he was great that year. I wish I cared enough to win this debate and look it up. I might give Bob West a call. He probably can get those stat's and maybe give me his opinion on the better QB at PNG. Sorry, don't agree with the end of discussion. There was a coaching change. Slocum was reassigned to assist the President of the University and they hired Fran from Alabama. BTW, he had 7 TD passes against Texas Tech. [Hidden Content] He talked Long into staying and probably told him the QB position was open for competition. Isn't that a form of recruiting? So you are saying since Slocum benched Long he should stay the back-up under a different Head Coach? Are you serious? There are changes all over the field after a coaching change and a lot of times that includes the QB. Obviously, McNeal wasn't great at ATM and IMHO Long would have won more games. There is one thing still missing in you arguement. The players you mentioned may have been under recruited in college but they all had at least one school offerring a scholarship. Doty had zero! Now, if we keep this up it's going to sound like I didn't think Brennan was a good HS QB. I thought he was very good. Just not as good as Dustin Long. Aren't you the guy that kept arguing that PNG in 1988 was 1-9 in 4A and you kept saying that was their last year in 5A? LOL at that  ;) [/quote] And there's a lot more to the story from when Slocum was coaching Dustin (pressure from administration), to the Fran situation (a call from RC to Dustin in the offseason that helped make his choice to leave) etc. Dustin and I played baseball together and still remain friends.

Even after a slow start Lamar's RPI is 105 thanks to non-conference. UTA is currently 150.

Crosby was up on LC-M 2-0 in the 1st, anyone have a final?

No offense but after going to multiple BISD games there is no need for a new big arena in Beaumont. WB is usually empty (I do think they need a new gym), Ozen has plenty of empty seats and Central besides rivalry games with Ozen has plenty of seating. I love the feel of the high school gyms on packed nights and I think you lose that in an 8-10k arena on normal nights. The Montagne Center is a fantastic venue for playoff games but even during the YMBL it's an empty cave for the most part. As great as the crowd was at the H-J vs Silsbee game last week if it was played in an 8-10k arena it wouldn't have sold out. Yes there were people that couldn't get in but not those numbers.

McMurry won at UTSA last year.

Brenham 4 Nederland 1 F Didn't get their HF result Brenham (5-0-0) LC-M W (6-0) Lumberton W (4-1) PN-G W (1-0) H-F W Nederland W (4-1)

What was the Nederland final against Brenham? PN-G beat Hallsville (3-1), lost to Brenham (1-0) and I haven't got their result against Santa Fe today. Vidor was (1-0-2) Tied WB (2-2), Beat Channelview (2-0), tied Santa Fe (0-0)

I remember one of the first times walking through the tunnels of the Dome when I started at Ch. 12. I was 19, Craig Biggio came out of the locker room and a cat ran in front of us. Needless to say I was a little surprised. Then Biggio says don't worry about that, just look out for the rats they're even bigger lol.

There are zero excuses for students not to attend sorry.

Before playing Lyon Lamar's RPI was 39. That game sand bagged it to 55. It will drop in SLC play but still waaaaaaay ahead of the next SLC team UTSA at 162. At 55 Lamar is ahead of Virginia, BYU, Oral Roberts, Texas, Florida St, Pitt, Oklahoma St etc. Coach Knight has told me multiple times he wants Lamar to be the Gonzaga of the southwest.
