2nd year in a row yates press has killed them...but whats up with swift he doesn't play like a D-1 player
[/quote]I agree! I realize that pressing is their 'game', but why not make adjustments and not press when your team is equally matched?

Yates just fell victim to another big city team who had just as many or more players than they did.  A taste of what all us small town teams get.

Actually Yates has 2x the enrollment of Madison. Madison was the smallest 3A school competing at the Tournament.

I've yet to see Swift attempt a jump shot. All I ever see him doing is getting putbacks and layups/dunks off their press.

Maybe Region 3 isn't as strong as we Think it is the Champ hasn't came of our Region since 07 when HJ won


The probably Yates had was Lewis not playing that's 12 points easily missing they also made no adjustment they only adjust in the Prime Prep game an Silsbee game but the difference was Silsbee aloud Yate to slow down on Offense Madison Press an ran the whole game an it helps to have 2 6'7 also

My point wasn't the size of the school but on the size of the city.  Thus enabling a lot more athletes to attend the school and not really have to move.  May not happen as much at Madison as we all see at Yates.  I don't know.

Maybe Yates should try to win the championship at the 2A or 1A level since 4A and 3A didn't work out so well! ;) ;D

[/quote]By 10/15 maybe. Depends. However we don't have the luxury to be a magnet school and recruit amongst 3 million kids within HISD and/or decide which classification we play. 8)

Since you could not defend them, nice job on changing the subject matter. ;)

Yates is nothing more than an AAU team playing in public school competition. U still convinced that's the way it should be-Lol! ::)

Madison has some good kids coming back too!

Who? The only one I saw that's returning that played significant minutes was the Sophomore#3. Everyone else was Seniors. Yates returns virtually everyone with the exception of #23 Martin.

Nederland would never do that.  Not only do they play by the rules, but they also play by the spirit/intent of the rules.
