Have you been paying attention to TEXAS!
shorttexas1 replied to shorttexas1's topic in SETXsports Archived Threads
Jai worked out my boys this weekend and didn't mention a word about Texas. : I read the article on ESPN! [Hidden Content] Next years team will be nasty and even bigeer than this years team... I really want to see what Mason does off the point... I think he could be a lethal slashing wing, especially if he works on his three ball this summer. If James doesn't leave, it may guarentee Texas to keep Hamilton for at least two years. Which means Jai's Junior year will be with him, Bradely, Willams, Hamilton, Johnson, Balbay, Ward, and Champman. Also, they will have one of the best Frosh bigs in the country, Tristan Thompson. If J. Brown comes in it will just be an added bonus. -
Cleveland 71 Silsbee 60 Final

That IMMA dude cancelled his account becasue Silsbee lost and he could not win an argument? Now that is funny! you talk about being a big baby... From his post you could tell he was a young whipper snapper! lol He was ready to annoint Silsbee as world beaters... Again I say they have a great team with alot of opportunity... I wish the Tigers a great season! -
The Ozen majestic has worn off... EVeryone flocked to the new school when it openned, now the kids are starting to more strongly towards the other schools. Academically Central still performs better than Ozen too, and Westbrook is the best in Beaumont.

that is supposed to help the team?

Sounds like the easy way to avoid that is win all your games. That way you don't have anything to whine about. This was a silly statement by some BC supporter who did not even read the thread! Explination... You could win all the games by 20 + points and another team could win all their games by 10 + points and another team could win all their games by single digits but shoot free throws well and win the tourny.

THIS IS A ROUND ROBIN tOURNY AND THERE ARE PLENTY OF THESE THAT GO ON IN THE NATION... tHE CHAMPION IS USUALLY CHOSEN BY POINT TOTAL IF A TIE OCCURS. FREE THROW PERCENTAGE SOUNDS LIKE A WAY TO PROMOTE A TEAM FOR ITS FONDAMENTALS... WHICH IS FINE BUT HAPPENS WHEN ONE TEAM SHOOTS 50 FREE THROWS AND MAKE 70% AND A TEAM SHOOTS 10 FREE THROWS AND MAKES 80%... THIS SEEMS VERY UNFAIR!

Milburn in the Gamble Tourny is a 5A school!

I have been watching closely and here is what I have noticed. Damion James will return for another year because he is not making a strong case for the lottery. Pittman could be a full time starter next year if he can get more aggressive. Lohnson may be a star in the James mold... Come in as an undersized power forward with bad dribbling and end up a very successful small forward. Clint Chapman is aggresive as hell and looks like a future starter... Matt Hill is not all that good. Dogue Balbay is scared to shoot (can he shoot?), Mason will start until he graduates, Ward will be good on defense and may end up with an offensive game too, Wangmene may never leave the bench again. Did you notice that Jai Luas committed to Texas... Now we have a PG for the next two years. Starting five next year may be Pittman, Johnson, James, Mason, Lucas. But the intriguing think is the bench... Which will have Chapman, Ward, Balbay(not sure about him yet), and three allstar recruits. 6'7 SF Jordan Hamilton=offemsive machine, 6'2"Avery Bradley = athletic offensive machine, and 6'6" Shawn Williams=big three point shooting two guard... Texas is starting to look like next years UNC!

WTF? Central in BC Classic!?
shorttexas1 replied to shorttexas1's topic in SETXsports Archived Threads
No 4A team in this tourny with more than 6 wins and they are all under .500... Legacy is small school TAAPS which is more like 1A... Huffman is 3A and Sante Fe has never been competitive. There are some decent 3A schools there but thats it just Decent... Stark and Jasper have lost game to 2A opponents... In 9 years they have went from State Tourny in 5A to the BC classic... Go figure??? :-\ No way should they be there! SHORT JASPER WAS BEAT BY GOODRICH AND BIG SANDY BOTH 1A SCHOOL I know.... That is crazy -

WTF? Central in BC Classic!?
shorttexas1 replied to shorttexas1's topic in SETXsports Archived Threads
And the craziest thing is that this team has four returning starters and a freshman phenom, from a 2007 playoff team! -
What is Central doing with this on its schedule... Not ragging on the classic; its good for 2A and 3A teams but not for a team looking to compete in the 4A playoffs. The only 4A teams in this tournament are not even cometitive. I would rather lose badly to good teams than steal wins playing 2A Milburn, 3A Huffman, BC, and Jasper? I guess we are hitting rock bottom or maybe it is meant to be a confidence builder. But it should be our first tourny crown since the YMBL 2000. But if we lose??? Totally destroys the team!

That same Central team that Silsbee blewout beat HJ so no I don't think the talent gap is closing... I think Silsbee has a very experienced, athletic, well coached, veteran ball club that would give alot of bigger schools a run for thier money THIS YEAR... Next year key parts will have graduated and they will still be good, but not as good as the bigger schools!

Man I remember the Thadeous Holden, Louis Arline, and Lil' Mon (because I can't remember his real name) '98 team, they were 4A then. That went undefeated and lost in the first round... That was the best team out of Silsbee, just slipped up against a Cleveland team they blewout twice. They beat WB, Central, and Lincoln that year. Lincoln went to the regional finals in 4A, WB went two rounds deep, and Central went three rounds deep. So I know Silsbee has the talent to compete against great talent. But the area is not that strong like it was in that era, not even Ozen is ranked in the top 25 in 4A. So if Silsbee beats WB, Central, Ozen, or Memorial what does that mean? The talent gap has closed between 3A and 5A.... Not hardly... Just means that they beat some mediocre teams that can't compete in 4A or 5A THIS YEAR either. Ignore Master T... He knows not what he says!

:D :D You just made my day!!!!!! Please c'mon. Coach at Nederland would not go to Ozen. AC Coach at Silsbee is a great coach, but I am not sure he is qualified to be a HC. DickieV.........I mean c'mon, look at his HS coaching career to date. No disrespect DV, but BISD will want stability with their new HC. Low blow on DV... I don't expect English to be at Ozen... The Silsbee assistant has great BBall knowledge, and I just like his style after watching him in summer leagues in the past, but I don't expect him at Ozen either. I was just commenting that I don't think anyone of the locals everyone else wants is the man for the job! I just said who I like locally, not who I think will get the job!

Thanks for the info... I bet this was a great tourny!!
