I guarantee your son can play. He might not get much court time but he for sure can come play. [/quote]Or another coach with $ense will invite  that freshman to his open gym ;) [/quote] Thanks for the kind words Dove but I seriously doubt my incoming freshman would be recruited to participate in another coach's open gym.  I just have a son that wants to play summer basketball anywhere he can.  Now getting him to an open gym somewhere since he can't drive is a totally different story!!! ;D ;D ;D

You're going to need the extra work for district play this upcoming season ;D [/quote] No need to get there early.  It has already been decided that HJ will struggle to gain a playoff berth this year while Silsbee and West Orange battle for second and third behind HF who, next March, will bring home the state crown. [/quote]NO!NO!NO! HF will make playoffs this year. Baby steps...... [/quote] Ok - But that is not what you had been stating in the past.  What has altered your position. [/quote] Nash - can my incoming freshman participate in open gym this summer? 

Does anyone know if the open gym @ HJ is limited to players already in high school or is it available to the incoming freshman as well?

[/quote] im sorry but your freshman arent going to win any of your varsity games for you... you should probably be talking about the team that is playing for you right now not 2 years down the road or next year [/quote] [/quote] bmrm, care to recant? ;D [/quote] No I don't because I sincerely thought my Hawks would be able to somehow persevere & win district.  Obviously I was incorrect & congratulate Silsbee on proving me wrong.  Just as you are an avid backer of the Tigers, I am the same of my Hawks!!!  I look forward to our continued rivalry & hope for the best for both schools!

[/quote] Not my angle at all. Had we made the inbounds play, those fouls would not have occurred. [/quote] I watched that inbounds play about 5 times. He clearly called TO before the Ref made his call. Those refs are done for the tourney. [/quote] Refs may have screwed up but it never should've come to this.

Just shows how weak minded a few people are.........it is OK that Silsbee year in and year out has likely one of the best teams in the state and yet they have NOTHING to show for it!!!!  Sucks Tiger fans, don't it!!! ;D ;D ;D [/quote] What sucks is when football season starts and your school loses 84-0 and 70-0. What will be HJ's record in football this year? 1-9? 2-8? Better play some 2A and sixman teams to prepare for a butt whipping in district. Again, cancel that program. We may not have a state crown in basketball or football but at least we dont go out each week knowing that we just going to get a good workout. It would be wise for HJ to just pull the bulbs out of the visters side of the score board and just keep score by calculator! Just saying buddy! When your team gets the score board busted on them every week, it tends to concern us. [/quote] It doesn't matter what HJ's record will be at the end of the season - they will be @ home watching the state finals just like Silsbee.  You say it concerns us?  No it's just another chance for you to slam HJ.  Just remember that jealousy is one of the seven deadlies! 

[quote name="PhatMack19" post="985515" timestamp="1300506793"] VCU is hammering Georgetown right now [/quote] Lovely. 

[quote name="BADSANTA" post="984674" timestamp="1300415809"] Tell me who you got? [/quote] Neither.  Silsbee has a better chance but it will never happen. 

In District 21-3A it's really simple:  HJ & Silsbee will battle for the district championship with the Hawks being a slight favorite on paper.  HF & WOS will be looking to grab the third & final playoff spot, while unfortunately, OF & BC will be on the outside looking in.

Who ya' got & why? 

[quote name="whsalum" post="983559" timestamp="1300246017"] I predict Silsbee and HJ will fill up the gym again a couple of times and play again at Huntsville for a state berth.The Hawks in another down year will probably win 30 again LOL. [/quote] Still wish HJ's new gym was bigger. 

Is it me or is UAB's point guard too much for his own teammates?  The whole first half he penetrated, drove the lane & his teammates weren't for a pass/kickout.  He has been putting the ball in their hands & they turn it over.   

[quote name="FanintheStands" post="983088" timestamp="1300221373"] In other news, Hardin Jefferson will suffer through its fifth consecutive re-building year.... and make it to the state tournament.  With a little luck, another state trophy may be coming back to Sour Lake with them...... Providing the refs can tell when the final buzzer sounds!  ;) [/quote] Hopefully the HJ basketball team doesn't suffer another injury to one of their boys during an insignificant late season football game. 

The season ended way too early for the district 21-3A playoff teams - especially my Hawks!!! 

[quote name="ForeverADog" post="983093" timestamp="1300221906"] That should help pick it up. Oh, one more thing. Silsbee will beat them by 30 and HF will win by 20!! [/quote] Games won't even be that close!!!
