They didn't have a pathetic defense last year, which was a step up. They held GCM pretty well.  When I say they held them well, I mean that it took GCM to third down to get a lot of the first downs.  That's considered holding them well when you are a Lee fan.  :D Gilbert, Willie and Zellars in the secondary should be a pretty good start.  Sarabia and Trent are actually better than average up front.  Garza and Richardson are scrappy.  I think Garza moved to safety or corner though if we can take the spring game into account.  I prefer Garza at linebacker.  They don't have much in the front seven outside of those four though. The offense should be better than average with Zellars and Cedeno running the ball.  They both run hard.  The passing game will take a step backward though.  Dawson, Friendswood and TC will probably all rip Lee a new one.  Other than that, they should be able to at least be competitive.

Kroger's on HWY 6 and Fort Bend Tollway has them if anyone is in that area.

You're right.  There is no way out of this for Lee. The way out for the entire city was to combine the schools into one instead of further diluting and making three campuses. None of the three campuses have anything worthwhile going on.  All three stuck in mediocrity.

Goose Creek has no vision. They should have gone to one school back when they had the chance.  They went to three schools and now they are losing students like nobody's business at Lee. Lee may be down to a 3A school before long. They were ore concerned, in this everyone gets a trophy society, in having 3 valedictorians, 3 salutatorians, 3 drum majors, 3 starting quarterbacks, so on and so forth, than they were about having any sort of community pride. All three schools are pretty well mediocre to poor in every sport and in every academic standard you could come up with. So, no...I don't think they will combine Lee and Sterling.  If anything, they will build another high school so they can have 4 valedictorians, 4 salutatorians....

Hard to believe that Sterling did not also get unacceptable.  When I looked at the numbers in the Chronicle a few weeks back, Lee actually had better numbers than Sterling nearly across the board.  Sterling may have had a better percentage under one heading, which presumably is the one they use for rating.

Yes. They did. I would hope anyone that was planning on transferring would not be out there playing in the spring game, but you never know. I know all of the key players are also playing for the Lee 7 on 7 team as of this past weekend in Manvel. I imagine anyone that wanted to transfer would have found a way to transfer already by finding a relative to claim on the other side of town like these kids always do.  They wouldn't have waited until Lee got an unacceptable rating.

Sure wish I would have known LEe was going to be there today. I hear they won one, lost one by 2 points and got rolled by LaMarque in the other game. Anyone make it out?

I would need a better description of what you are talking about.  That post did not make sense. All of those that were going to transfer already have I am quite sure.   There would be no reason for them to play in this spring scrimmage if they were going to transfer lol

You mean other than the fact that got an unacceptable rating?

What did you think?

I left shortly after halftime. It was rough to watch.  I would prefer if they just lined up the 1's vs. 1's to the best of their capability, knowing that some of them play both ways. They don't have enough good players to have a draft and split the teams up like that to where the #1 qb is on one team, and the best receiver and rb are on the other team.  Can't really tell much and it is not helpful to the players in my opinion. Jamari Gilbert was out for Lee.  I am almost certain that Gomez was out too, but I could be wrong about that one. Lee just doesn't have a whole lot of players. Zellars and Cedro should provide a good running 1-2 punch.  Zellars still struggles with the passing game.  Of course the win was gusting up to 40 mph it seemed. Leonce looked like he might be able to provide some shiftiness at receiver and punt returner. They will need Gilbert, Gomez, Willie, Zellars and Cedro to all play a little bit of both ways at the very least if not full time both ways. They had about 80 guys out, so that is an improvement over last year as hard as that may be to believe. lol I thought they looked.....ok, but again it was hard to tell much with two starters not even dressing, then another four offensive starters on the maroon team, while five more are on the white team.  Same way with the defense.  Just hard to get a gauge not seeing them all out on the field at once.

This will be the last year that Lee wins a game on varsity I believe.  Only half joking with that. they have Josh Zellars at QB/Safety.  He will be a D1 type guy.  He is a senior. They have a kid named Cedro I believe is his name.  He plays running back and linebacker.  He is a pretty good athletes.  They have a kid named Gomez, tall and lanky pretty good speed that plays some receiver for them. Miquo Willie will probably play receiver and some db.  He is also a pretty good athlete. Jamari Gilbert is another kid with nice size and speed that will play receiver and db.  They have some nice size up front. Kion Richardson, who I can only assume is Jaevon's brother, will play some linebacker and maybe receiver.  A little more stocky and not quite as dynamic as Jaevon. Most of them are seniors though, and as you said they have been winless two years straight on freshman team I believe, or close to it. I think they could make some noise this year,  if they stay healthy, depending on how much Zellars has improved as a qb.  He started playing safety last year towards the end of the year because Scott was a better qb.  Zellars' future might actually be safety as he was all-district in his limited time.  Between him and the Cedro kid they should be able to just bully their way through and run the ball a little bit against a lot of teams.  They are both big and physical relatively speaking. Outside of that, I don't know.  I will be learning on the fly today at 5pm/

5pm at Sultis Stadium next to Lee

Jabu, you gonna be there tomorrow? How has Josh been looking? I haven't gotten a chance to make any practices, but I am going to try to make it out to Baytown tomorrow.

How did the Rangers look?

I was just looking over the alignments again, and man this is a tough district now with the addition of Deer Park to go with the rest of the group. You have five teams there capable of going at least three or four deep into the playoffs in any one year.  One of those will have to be left at home ever year.  Almost seems unfair.

You have any idea when the Lee spring game is?

[quote name="Eagle11" post="1222759" timestamp="1337177598"] Man, being a Baytown Lee grad when I think of LaPorte I think of the wishbone. That game in 79 was something else. I believe LaPortes entire backfield went to OU that year. [/quote] Ricky Byars, Bubba Hill and Barrion Walker wasn't it?

Where is Holmes playing?

Nice season GCM. Better luck next year. That's the danger of a one-game playoff.  The best team does not always win.  Not that the best team always wins 2 out of 3 either but it certainly increases the odds that the cream will rise to the top.

Curtis Randle came in 6th for Lee in the triple jump at 46' 3.5"

[quote name="Eagle11" post="1219385" timestamp="1336405434"] If Olin was still at Lee they would be living in Baytown this summer..... ;) [/quote] Right...I don't recall getting any transfers from BH.  I do recall the Eagles coming and getting Michael Davis out of Lee though.

nice season Ganders.  Better luck next year.

Is Holmes the qb this year?
